This Heat Meets Mario Diekuuroh at Cold Storage
Boomkat Product Review:
A tripped-out edited improv sesh from 1977 that finds This Heat teaming up with Ghanaian artist Mario Diekuuroh, who adds unforgettable marimba, flute and percussion flourishes to This Heat's hazed suite of artful drone rawk.
Originally recorded in the band's Cold Storage studio in 1977, edited and released on cassette in 1982. The trio of Charles Bullen, Charles Hayward and Gareth Williams collaborate here with Ghanaian musician Mario Diekuuroh, who they performed with a number of times. Diekuuroh toured the world as part of the Ghana National Dance Company in the 1970s, before moving to London where he collided with This Heat. Their improvisation is so fluid it's hard to hear where Diekuuroh's marimba, flute and percussion stops and the trio's usual frothy assemblage of guitar squeals, hypnotic rhythms and woozy drones begins.
It's hard to believe it was recorded over four decades ago, the sounds are pretty much timeless - human and impulsive as the four musicians allow each others' ideas to melt into a fuzzy slop of noise, rhythm and tonality. V good.
