Ended the weekend and welcomed the week with Explanation II: Instrumental Themes and Dream Sequences an album by American indie rock band the Olivia Tremor Control, initially released as a bonus CD with the first few thousand copies of their 1996 debut album Music from the Unrealized Film Script: Dusk at Cubist Castle... - Wikipedia

Review by Jesse Jarnow

...Apparently recorded on the back porch of the band's house in Athens, GA, it is entirely unclear what instruments appear on the disc. Parts sound like they may have been created by gently controlled guitar feedback, organs, chimes, and tastefully played clarinet. There is plenty of real ambience on the disc, too: Crickets chirp, dogs bark, and a thunderstorm rolls in from the distance. It is beautiful, soothing music. t Castle to create quadraphonic sound, though that is unlikely since the albums are of different lengths.

Cherry Peel is the debut album of the Elephant 6 band of Montreal. It was released on Bar/None Records in 1997.

Review by Stanton Swihart

..The closest cousin to Of Montreal is probably the Apples in Stereo, and like that band, the influence of the Beatles, particularly Paul McCartney, and the Beach Boys is pervasive, and other '60s music such as Brill Building pop and the Lovin' Spoonful ("Everything Disappears When You Come Around") and a bit of psychedelia, as well as a pinch of new wave, occasionally reaches the surface of the songs. But Of Montreal touches on so many other sources than those, such as circus music and, on "I Can't Stop Your Memory," even a bit of jazz, and the entire album has the sentiment and conviction of early-20th century, old-timey, and Tin Pan Alley tunes...

Science Faire is a compilation album by indie pop Elephant 6 group The Apples in Stereo. The album consists of two EPs and various singles that were released from 1993 to 1995, leading up to the production of Fun Trick Noisemaker. All of the selections were recorded the summers of 1993 and 1994 and appear on the compilation in the order they were recorded.

Review by Stewart Mason

A collection of early tracks, unreleased tunes, and various odds 'n' sods, Science Faire is a minor release intended for fans only. The heart of the album consists of four tracks originally released as a 7" EP by the Apples..

Music from the Unrealized Film Script: Dusk at Cubist Castle (sometimes shortened to Dusk at Cubist Castle) is the debut studio album by the American band the Olivia Tremor Control, released on August 6, 1996, by Flydaddy Records. It is an eclectic album that encompasses a variety of genres, including indie pop, neo-psychedelia, and psychedelic pop.

The second half of the album features more experimental songs, influenced by drone music and musique concrète. When asked about the inclusion of these experimental songs, [John] Fernandes said: "We wanted to change the way people listen to music ... Make people who love the Beatles also appreciate John Cage." - Wikipedia
