  <notes>Small Life Form started in 1998 as an experiment towards sound&#13;
manipulation &amp; attempts to recreate the styles of Gyorgy Ligeti &amp;&#13;
George Crumb. Starting off as a computer oriented manipulation&#13;
in sound, 2003 marked a change from sounds created in a box to&#13;
creating the sounds in the real air using effect pedals, microphones,&#13;
&amp; predominantly horns &amp; organs for the debut album One.&#13;
2007 marked Small Life Form’s live debut &amp; over the next year&#13;
the style refined, abandoning real horns for a piece of copper&#13;
pipe, replacing organs with melodica, &amp; vocals with feedback&#13;
manipulation. Alive is collected from two live recordings in 2008.&#13;
They are massive structures built from scratch using a loop pedal,&#13;
distortion pedals, &amp; reverb units.&#13;
Sit back &amp; relax whether you think Small Life Form is the&#13;
soundtrack to a world tearing apart or one that’s just forming.&#13;
Menacing &amp; soothing enough to hold you over for a full album in&#13;
2009.</notes>
