It's unclear where the obsession for tractors comes from, but the tracks on this album are each named for a tractor brand (Eicher, Yanmar, Kubota, &c.) and the liner notes give directions for validating a tractor's maintenance, as the ea-trio of UK improvisers Pat Thomas on piano & electronics, Dominic Lash on double bass, and Lawrence Casserley on a signal processing instrument provide 10 iexperimental improvisations that validate their excellent working condition. To work a pun, the resulting music, captured appropriately at Singing Barn at Piggots in Buckinghamshire in 2013 are beyond serviceable, and warrant your open ears as they explore the inner workings of their inventive machinations.
