Information


Description

More than 20 years ago, The Airwaves (under a previous band name) recorded 3 Syd Barrett covers (Wined and dined, Effervescing Elephant, Golden Hair) for a planned Syd Barrett tribute that the Swedish independent record company Rocket Number Nine Records held. For some reason the record was never realized. Now these covers are being released along with newer recordings of other Barrett related songs in a Barrett/Pink Floyd tribute project together with the Montana Musical Experiments Project. Also involved on keyboards is Mark Zampino who has been the headmaster for 2 previous Syd Barrett/early Pink Floyd fan projects: "Let´s Try It Another Way" (by The Laughing Madcaps 2003) and "Before There Was A Dark Side (Free Range Pigs 2005).
On a not so distant shore, Alex Ahlstrand (now by different name) formed a one-man band entitled enigmatically "The Montana Musical Experiments Project". Though mainly releasing his own original songs, Alex will often hint towards, or blatantly copy the sounds and feeling of his favourite band. Alex' contribution to the "Nice Twins" project is as much a hommage as it transgresses in and out of the cover territory. Specifically with a trilogy of "original" Syd Barrett song which aren't Barrett, and yet still is. That is the strange magic of The Montana Musical Experiments Project.
Alex also design digital art under the banner "Artist on the border" whom designed this release.

This is a split LP. The Airwaves contributions are on side 1 and
The Montana Musical Experiments Project's contributions are on side 2.

One or two secret bonus tracks will be available for digital download
