Notes
Back Cover:
The music was slow to emerge and not really fully forming till late on the second day of recording, but as John from Tortoise commented, "all good things take time".
Track 3 inspired by the song "Kachel" ("stove") from Misha Mengelberg-ICP.
Recorded at Koeienverhuur in June 1998.
North American distribution: Touch and Go records
Inner Panel:
"In the Fishtank" is a project of Konkurrent Onafhankelijk Muziekbedrijl.

These bands are given two days to put down on 24 tracks 20 to 30 minutes of whatever they like: regular songs, funny versions, improvised pieces... The Fishtank offers a space for expression and experimentation.
