Whats the CD about

A mate of mine needed a bit of an explanation of what this is all about : this is the tip of the iceberg I guess but this was my precis:

"Inalienable Influences is a narrative album with a Greek chorus intro to each track, and many different styles of music- like a sound track - it definitely has a post Brexit sentiment about diaspora and using the Roswell aliens as a metaphor  - I'd like it to be an animated short  but that's money away ! T- I wrote the words and played everything apart from the klesmer inspired dub song sung in Farsi by Kaveh called Hey Humans!  This is from the old poem that I think may have inspired Sadie Smith sub consciously......?   آي آدم ها   By Nima Yushij.  

So this should pique someone's interest - but the pieces have got Joy Division Country Folk electronica reggae klesmer northern soul and some jazz and loads of alt stuff in there...  mostly without voice though cicadas checker cabs and wolves also feature...  who has inpired me for the Roswell Imps?  This is the Kit, Bratsch, Deptford Dub City, Electronica, post punk guitarists, 6Music and so many bands I cant even think straight...."  


....his response was...  ...Blimey...

...16 intros and 16 tracks later, with enormous help from all of the gentlemen involved: Rob Aldridge Narrator, Kaveh Ghandizadeh (KV) lyricist and singer and Lance Bohl Imp creator and realisation... I think we may be finally close to release, as ever with these creative things some of events that have surrounded the creative flow are serendipitous rather than deliberate, but ill explain this in greater detail when the public get a chance to listen...

..funnily enough I seem to have a few more tunes that are arriving as if from nowhere must be a creative period..  Mike Dearing
