Melbourne label Psychic Hysteria is proud to release Quiet / / Disquiet - companion albums from skipism and the little hand of the faithful.
These two artists have worked side by side on the fringes for almost 40 years. Their inspirations and influences have intertwined and infused their creative work in sometimes unconscious ways. And yet these two albums could not be more divergent.
Both will fill your mind and move it to a different space. Quiet / draws your attention to small sounds, combining electronic instruments, field recording and voice in subtle and emotive layers. Disquiet / selects disconcerting found sounds and conversations and relocates them in the troubled waters of interpretive soundtracks.

The solo project of Mitchell Jones from trail blazing post / industrialists Scattered Order. As 'the little hand of the faithful' he bends messed up guitars, odd beats, synths, found sounds and samples into disarming instrumental slabs of sound.
