The American singer Anna Homler, the well-tried activist of the English improvising scene Steve Beresford and the all-round man and ‘ranting’ musician Richard Sanderson take ‘fun in music’ seriously. Since having performed at the Copenhagen International Experimental Music Festival in 1999 as a trio for the first time playing with sound emitting objects and toy instruments they have continually increased their baubles. All three musicians have a totally different approach to their ‘toy-object-music’. Anna Homler utilizes her voice like an electronic instrument. As an element of further deception she developed her own language which she garnishes musically with squeaky toys and other childlike articles thereby caricaturing them. Steve Beresford having accomplished infantile genius escapades in the band The Melody Four and Richard Sanderson both expose their toy collection in a cheeky manner to every manipulation imaginable. This dense, complex music of subtle humour is an emotional upheaval but seriously funny nevertheless – intriguing and touching at the same time.
