Cindytalk
Encyclopedia
Cindytalk is an experimental music group fronted by Gordon Sharp
, a Scottish performer who has been the only constant member since its inception in 1982.
(Vocals) and David Clancy (Guitar, Keyboards) from the ashes of Edinburgh based punk/new wave band The Freeze
.The Freeze (1976–1982) released two 7 inch singles, recorded two John Peel
sessions and played extensively around the UK supporting many big name bands of the time.
After re-locating to London in 1982, Cindytalk began to work towards their debut album Camouflage Heart
, with a newer, darker and more fractured sound that drew much from post-punk and early European industrial music. In 1983 Sharp and Clancy were joined by John Byrne who proved to be a crucial component in Cindytalk's deliberately disintegrating sound.
Also in 1983 Sharp recorded a John Peel session with fellow Scots Cocteau Twins
(contributing to "Hazel" and "Dear Heart", available on some versions of Garlands
as well as BBC Sessions) which led to a meeting with 4AD
founder Ivo Watts-Russell
who invited him to appear on This Mortal Coil
's 1983 debut EP Sixteen Days/Gathering Dust
. He was also one of three featured singers on the debut This Mortal Coil album It'll End in Tears
(1984), contributing vocals to "Kangaroo" (which was released as a single and became an instant indie hit), "Fond Affections" and "A Single Wish".
Simultaneous to that release, Camouflage Heart also appeared to some critical acclaim in the UK music press. Shortly after Camouflage Heart David Clancy left the band and was replaced by brother/sister team Alex and Debbie Wright. The colossal In This World
was recorded over the next three years ... two albums of the same name released simultaneously, featuring cover art by Kathy Patterson. The first of the albums, a broken and noisy affair, the second, an album of creaky ambience featuring Sharp's improvised piano experiments. In This World also featured an uncredited collaboration with feminist punk writer Kathy Acker
(Janey's Love).
During this period Cindytalk had begun working in tandem with performance artist and film maker Ivan Unwin, providing sound for some of his short pieces. This led Cindytalk to scoring Unwins' "Eclipse: An Amateur Enthusiasts Guide to Virus Deployment", the record of which was released on Midnight Music in 1990 under the title The Wind Is Strong...
, the album, following on from the second of the In This World albums, was based on piano improvisations and abstract/concrete experiments. At the time Sharp described it as "Ambi-dustrial" fusing his love of the early ambient releases on the EG
label with the above-mentioned European Industrial music. Sharp was joined on this release by Ivan Unwin and long standing co-producer/engineer David Ros who became a more active member of the band at this time. Matt Kinnison and drummer/percussionist extraordinaire, Paul Middleton also provided sounds and ideas to this mix. Secrets And Falling
, a 4-track e.p. culled from the Wappinschaw
sessions was released in 1991. At this point the band had become more of a collective, drawing on musicians from the current line-up as well as the past, John Byrne returned and was joined by Kevin Rich and Darryl Moore (Soul Static Sound).
Midnight Music folded in 1992 and prevented the recently finished album Wappinschaw from being released until early 1995 (on Sharp's own label Touched, distributed through World Serpent). Wappinschaw features a collaboration with Scottish artist and writer Alasdair Gray
, who reads from his acclaimed novel "Lanark
" (Wheesht). By 1993 Cindytalk had gone through more changes and were preparing to play live for the first time. Sharp, Middleton and Ros were joined by Paul Jones, Andie Brown, Mark Stephenson and Simon Carmichael to record and release 1994's "Muster"/"Prince Of Lies" 7 inch (Touched/World Serpent).
In early 1996, Cindytalk toured the US. They played two shows in Boston — one a "secret" show at the start of their tour under the name "Lucinder", and one at the end. In between, they played, Washington DC, Cleveland, Detroit, Minneapolis, Portland OR, Seattle, Santa Clara, San Francsisco, Corona CA, Tempe AZ, Baton Rouge, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, Charlotte NC and New York City. Bowery Electric
and Trance to the Sun were opening acts at multiple dates.
, was started in 1994 by Sharp and Carmichael, inspired by underground techno parties such as Dead By Dawn and VFM. Carmichael left the band on the eve of Cindytalk's extensive US tour (1996) and by the time the first Bambule record was ready Carmichael had taken control of the project and it's connection to Cindytalk had receded. London's Praxis label released the 8-track vinyl double-pack (originally titled "Songs From The Motherbomb" ) as Cunning Meets Bambule (Praxis 19). Bambule followed this up in 2000 with a 4-track 12 inch called "Vertical Invasion" (Praxis 29) which featured Sharp alongside new Cindytalk cohort Richie Young, Tymothi Loving and Dale Lloyd & Stuart Arentzen from Seattle band Lucid (both Sharp and Young would also collaborate with Lucid's alter-ego After The Flood on tracks for the ATF2 release). The Vertical Invasion 12 inch also, included two remixes by Welsh electronic wizards Somatic Responses (as Photon Emissions). By this time Sharp had moved to the U.S. and had become involved with various techno collectives (ele_mental in Columbus, Ohio, Candlelight (with dj Deadly Buda) and Darkmatter Sound System in Los Angeles.As of 2010, Sharp still uses the Bambule moniker for dj'ing purposes, playing recently at parties in such disparate places as Edinburgh (at a Cindytalk event), Kobe (Japan), Cherbourg (France), London (at Hardcore event Antagony) and the Wroclaw Industrial Festival in Poland.
which saw Cindytalk move into even more abstract areas, taking a closer look at the rhythms, tones and melodies of noise. Sharp relocated to Japan in 2004 and has been working on various projects, including the recently released Cindytalk album The Crackle Of My Soul, a work of sound poetry which attempts to put the experiment at the centre of the idea, leaving any melodies to be found shimmering around the edges. In the summer of 2005 Cindytalk was invited to use tracks from "The Crackle Of My Soul" as musical score for the UK independent film "Madrigal" (Rabblewise Films). In summer 2006 and again based in London, Cindytalk started working on a new (band) album provisionally entitled "In A World Without Hope", the current line-up for this album is also in rehearsal for future live shows in and around Europe. In January 2007 Cindytalk signed a licensing deal with Italian distributors Abraxas through a sub-label Wheesht, who were to re-issue the entire back catalogue. However, this deal appears to have gone awry with Abraxas releasing the first two Cindytalk albums Camouflage Heart and In This World without complying with the contract. Legal action is being taken by Cindytalk. Sharps' own label touchedRAW is in the process of releasing two records; Cindytalk's FieryPlanetEyes and Matt Kinnison's Evenings Of Ordinary Sand.
The Indiana-based label BlueSanct released a Cindytalk 10 inch called Silver Shoals Of Light as part of their 10 year anniversary limited edition ART SINGLES club.
Matt Kinnison died from cancer on Wednesday 7 May 2008.
Vienna based label Editions Mego
