Iron Filings and Sellotape is a collective made up of persons unknown, centred around the concept of producing works of music, film and literature with exclusively found elements and obsolete technologies. Field recordings, tape noise, vinyl crackle, mixed in with processed loops, psychedelic melodic spirals, rumbling bass, lo-fi drum-sets, dialogue from historic recordings, and occasionally the voice of jamesreindeer, contributing lyrics penned through a most hallucinogenic filter of the geopolitical sphere.
The project has been in existence since the summer of 2003, but the majority of material remains unreleased, just two short films and two short songs are currently in circulation. Rumours abound of an abandoned bunker filled with volumes of material, but as and when these articles might see the light of day is open to much wild speculation. Further materials will be surely leaked to the wider world in due course, so be sure to keep your eyes open for more audio-visual field reports from the global war zone. Amidst the grease and chaos. Iron Filings and Sellotape.
