Notes:
Little is known about this side-project, as FSOLDigital.com -
upon which the record was released - simply states 'Experiments
in polyrhythmic'. The tracks are largely rhythm based (as the
description suggests), featuring sparse drum and percussion
loops, with fairly abstract, unmelodic instruments over the top.
A thoroughly unusual experiment which is hard to compare to
anything FSOL have done before or since. The album - and many of
the pieces - are fairly repetitive, so it may not be of interest
to the more casual fan. Heads of Agreement are described on
MySpace as 'Melodramatic Popular Song/Bossa Nova' and
'polyrhythmik thought goat'. In the Freeze Magazine interview of
February 2008, Gaz suggests that the project is more Brian's work
than his.
