TONE FLOAT-MUSIK VON TONE FLOAT, CD, 1997, USA

As requested, here's the sole album by this VDO-related pseudo-supergroup, initiated back in '97 and conceived of at the time as a sort of umbrella project with a krautrock theme that would bring together some of the disparate folks in our orbit at that moment, Tone Float was VDO's follow-up session to our production work on the debut album by Doug Ferguson's band Ohm and would ultimately result in Doug (R.I.P.) joining VDO. Also involved were both Mazinga Phaser's Wanz Dover and (though unannounced at the time at his wishes) Daniel Huffman of spacerock also-rans Comet and, lately, Ghostcar. Wanz and Daniel would both end up abandoning this project midstream; each contributing to two cuts on the resulting album. Musik Von Tone Float would largely close the door on an era of our work that was explicitly geared toward the psych/prog collector geek circuit and it may well be the best of the lot, summarizing a host of kosmiche tendencies explored across our Saturation and Zyzzybaloubah albums.
