Ail FionnOverpoort Sketches, 1994 (November 30, 2006)

Earliest existing recordings of Matthew and Inge, before they discovered the saz and mandolin. Largely-improvised guitar duets. Very lo-fi, and quite wobbly playing, but still pervaded by a certain magic.

This was all recorded in 1994 when we were living in the Overpoort cite, Ghent. Recorded on a variety of terrible cassette recorders with the worst microphones you can imagine. Some attempt has been made to improve the sound, but it's still very lo-fi.

To best appreciate this collection, we recommend imagining that you're alone on a little boat in the North Sea, late at night, tuning in to mediumwave radio, and that you've picked up this fairly weak signal of some strange music - is it from Latvia? Somewhere in the Balkans perhaps? You may never know...
