Listen To Jeff Henderson's 'Soundtracks Volume 1' + 'Installations Volume 1'

Tāmaki Makaurau-based sorcerer of sound, Jeff Henderson has unleashed a treasure trove of fresh collections online via his brand new Bandcamp page. Originally recorded in 2006 as an aural accompaniment for The Arsehole, a play written by Julie Hill and directed by Stephen Bain, Soundtracks Volume 1 was composed, improvised and performed by Henderson with Gerard Crewdson, Alphabethead, Julian Taylor, Chris Palmer and Warwick Donald, rewarding attentive listeners with galaxy brain levels of mind-meld across eight immersive and kaleidoscopically detailed tracks.
