Fred Frith provides a complex and fascinating soundtrack for the second film he made with Nicolas Humbert and Werner Penzel--"Middle of the Moment"--merging his guitar work, field recordings, and environment sound, with additional help from Tim Hodgkinson, as the film and music follow nomadic people in their travels, their songs, and the sounds they experience.

The long-awaited, missing 2nd side of "Technology of Tears" recorded at Noise NY by Kramer, this album was written for theatre in 1987 using a host of avian and mammalian voices, snippets of unidentified musical material and electroacoustic noise-sculpting, for a dark and amazing album.

The soundtrack from the film of the same name by Nicolas Humbert & Werner Penzel for which Frith composed this album, this features an excellent cross-section of Frith's music, including compositional and band work; the title comes from the Skeleton Crews (Frith/Cora) piece of the same name.
