Review

In the middle of 2001, Niels van Hoorn (Legendary Pink Dots) received a friendly email from Ryan Moore (Twilight Circus Dub Sound System / Legendary Pink Dots) offering assistance with his new solo album. He promised "no stress, just fun!" And that is exactly what happened. Moore ended up playing drums and congas, which were looped and later employed for multi-track recordings. Van Hoorn's experiments with a Boomerang Phrase sampler resulted in the first sax loop on the album, which were mixed live with effects to a 2-track tape. For the most part, Van Hoorn placed himself in the middle of his studio, encircled by his collection of saxes, clarinets, flutes, analogue windsynths and keyboards, and would walk around to each, improvising. Everything was then recorded by Moore and passed through his "effects kitchen" for some sonic baking. And voila! "Colours" came into being. Both Niels and Ryan hope you enjoy listening to it as much as they enjoyed producing it.
