Bug Sentience, by Free Water Shrew Ensemble 2 track album

Hey oomfs new and old,
Our most recent release is Bug Sentience from our quintet Free Water Shrew Ensemble. Listenable here, and just a handful of tapes left: watershrews.bandcamp.com/album/bug-se...

Hi Jon!

Woah wut tha. Just redownloaded this and now all the experimental music freaks are on here? Very cool

This is why I stick to CDs

Don’t know about y’all but I spent the latter years of the 70s reading hippy utopian sf and so always assumed everyone in the 21st c was gonna have multiple genders, futuristic pronouns, several sets of genitalia, and copulate with who/what and wherever they wanted

Is there a streaming service for longform, improvised weirdness? Cuz no current platform seems to vibe with that.
