Flying Machine

"It has repeatedly been enquired why the visitors from Mars did not take wing without delay after their coming. They most certainly did use an airborne device for numerous days, but only for short voyages of a dozen or so of miles, in order to explore and cast their coal black residue."

Kraftwerk visit Fife



Free-Form experimentellem Rock mit einer Mischung aus menschlichen und verarbeitet werden, synthetisierten Stimme war schon immer ein großer Ansatz für Van Credenza. Wie Ralf Hütter wir nicht gerne über unser persönliches Leben zu sprechen, doch jetzt ist eine unserer großen heroischen icons gehen, um einen Ort nicht weit von unserem Haus zu besuchen.
Das ist unser Tribut.

Free rock-forme expérimentale avec un mélange d'humain et traitées, la voix synthétisée a toujours été une bonne approche pour Van Credenza. Comme Ralf Hütter nous n'aimons pas parler de nos vies personnelles, mais maintenant c'est un grand feu de nos icônes héroïques pour visiter un endroit non loin de notre maison.
C'est notre hommage.

Free-form rock sperimentale con un mix di voce umana sintetizzata e trasformati è sempre stato un grande codolo per Van Credenza. Come Ralf Hütter non ci piace parlare di nostra vita personale, ancora oggi, uno dei nostri grandi icone eroiche sta per visitare un luogo non troppo lontano da casa nostra.
Questo è il nostro tributo.

Ride a White Swan




Bolan's original Ride a White Swan featured no drums, simply a tambourine and clapping. Van Credenza remains roughly true to that original, with the beat provided by a cake tin stuffed with fabric. 

A complex time signature was attempted for the closing section of this cover, while Charlotte Dundas takes on the now familiar role as vocalist. 


Unusually for Van Credenza as an electronic combo, real guitars were utilised throughout.


When performing this number live, wearing top hats and feather boas on stage, Van Credenza is simply known as 'V Credenza'.

Jackdaw & Crow



Noise.
Noise of mechanical structures. Man made machines. Noise.
Natural noise. Noise of the creatures around us. We curse it.
Noise!
Yet, we also treasure the din, for some among us cannot perceive sound.
Van Credenza brings together nature and apparatus, plus two deaf, totally anonymous guest musicians (JD & WMD) for 'Jackdaw & Crow'.
This item wasn't simply played; it was built by Van Credenza. We sent 'Jack' and 'Walter' to capture two live birds to use in the recording. Instructions were issued to our hearing-impaired collaborators (Mr Dow and Mr Marks-Davies) in order for them to construct makeshift percussive instruments. Finally, Tens pain relief machines were attached to both functioning ear restricted drummers to ensure they picked up and played the required beats, on time.
Whether this has been a successful project, only you can judge. Unless you too are unable to perceive noise.
