The Nimply Power Sessions Parts I-VII: Audio Memoirs of a Gentelman Asthete

Sir Ashleigh Grove

1984 - 1986
Siren Records (4)

The solo moniker of John Mylotte, Sir Ashleigh Grove only made a few compilation contributions during the mid-‘80s, and guested live with New Blockaders. The appearance of The Nimply Power Sessions some three decades later sheds further light on Mylotte’s creative processes. There’s an umbilical relationship here with English industrial and power electronics, but Mylotte’s productions are, by turns more playful or more maddeningly repetitive: sometimes he lets a loop, or a frustrated pulse, circle around itself for minutes on end; elsewhere, plastic electronics bounce around in the air like a supercharged slinky, or scuffed tones gather as a hailstorm.
