1.
Measurements 00:38
Measurements belie the Doomsday Book. The measuring tools are always subject to impassioned disagreements.
2.
Ground 03:22
Go to ground. A beat is about to be revealed.
3.
Abandoned satellites and the Voice of God.
4.
Broken glass and substandard latex. The spontaneous and convenient discards of humanity and other city mammals. The expansive, glowing reflection and haloes of a hundred lights. Don't worry, brother. The artifacts are broken and dangerous, but the lights are real.
5.
Redcrow 02:22
Yellow Bird. Jamaican Farewell. Brown Skin Girl. Mango Bop. Tropical Fish. Vera Cruz and the Gulf of Mexico. These are not like Redcrow. Redcrow is a solitary hunter of human artifacts and free flyer in the Appalachian Mountains, the Smokeys, the Blue Ridge, the Berkshires and the Catskills
6.
So dry. Amazing how quickly civilization disappears.
7.
Radio Pocket 01:22
Radio Pocket, watch pocket, change pocket, wallet pocket, documentation and a pocket for your keys and candy.
8.
brickbeatA 05:14
Cause she's a BRICK . . . BEAT. She's MIGHTY FLIGHTY. Elusive as water.
9.
A demonstration of real power. But it's a bus. It's not exclusive, so you will not be left behind. Get on it and fly into the night.
10.
I guess you gotta brag about something.
11.
Many hundreds of times more useful than an abandoned satellite.
12.
Spring 01:54
College boys are writing sonnets, and the girls keep shedding more and more clothes. Go south. It starts earlier there.
13.
Voices 03:49
Well, this is what it's all about, then, isn't it.
14.
Orbweaver 01:36
A circular ball of soft yarn and American colonial homespun. Don't leave now, when it's getting cozy and honest. I really do believe we can make it through the night together, if you say that you'll stay.
15.
Mad As Birds 02:15
Jelly and a change purse. The honey trap that backfired. A protective attack by a nest of Yellow Jackets. Flying creatures eons from individual self-awareness. Eons from becoming a flying thing with feathers. The madness and directed action of a group mind. But it is usually so comforting.

about

Mao.

Cards are dealt at Oxford.

Or maybe it's Cambridge.

Nobody will tell you how to play.

Purchase this CD of songs by our trio Mao Amore.

It could well help your game.

Solid information is built upon shifting sands.

We welcome the improvement of our spelling and grammar. Rewrite this ad copy and send it around. It's as close as we can come to playing the game witch y'all.

We invite you to participate in Mao Amore - the search for powerful whirlpools of smelly ugliness, crawling through the brambles and accidentally finding yourself in the den of lactating predators, blood and mud and heroic solutions of ineffable beauty.

It will be years of listening before you begin to pick up some of the elusive but solid logic. Musical rules that were created on the spot.

But who cares? The music is ever present and works superbly right now. It is a document that will never get worn out. Something new is always being revealed.

All the music is improvised. We want to come to London and perform during Company Week. Invite us, please.
