about

This is the fifteenth of over 30 planned archival releases from Crispycat Recordings by electronic improvisational quartet, Creek.

The intention is to put all of their works into the public domain by 2025.

While some of the earliest sessions were released on cassette via Reptile Records in Edinburgh in the late 90's, other than their one official LP, "Somewhere Between " (2004), which has been available on Bandcamp since 2014, any pieces that were made available, have been out of circulation for over 20 years, while, in the majority of cases, these improvisations have never been issued until now.

This 34 minute, four track LP comprises the fifteenth Creek session, the fifth of 1998, recorded just a week after Creek XIV (and so, the third in a fortnight), on a Tuesday evening in March, 1998, in the back shop at Reptile Records. This is the third of three consecutive sessions with just David Reilly and Stuart Cobley in attendance.
