Tracks list

In Peter Strickland’s Flux Gourmet, a dysfunctional group of performance
artists undertake a month-long residency at an institute devoted to culinary
disciplines. Food is interrogated for its sonic potential as the group mic-up,
amplify, distort and transform what they cook in front of an audience. The noise
that the characters in the film itself make is driven by food blenders,
overflowing cauldrons of gurgling soup and sizzling frying pans (courtesy of The
Sonic Catering Band), yet the music that soundtracks the culinary capers is
engorged with aching melodies and wordless, airy vocals. Contributors include
Cavern of Anti-Matter, Jeremy Barnes and Heather Trost of A Hawk and a Hacksaw
and Trost’s band, Roj (formerly of Broadcast), and Nurse With Wound. Flux
Gourmet is presented in a lush 2xLP package with an ornate, colorful design and
Strickland’s detailed liner notes. Image, color, light and sound are
integrated and heightened to delirious levels of hyperreality, much like
Strickland’s past works, Berberian Sound Studio and In Fabric. Flux
Gourmet very much alludes to his past as a member of The Sonic Catering Band,
which he founded back in 1996. The band split on several occasions and got back
together to create new pieces for the soundtrack, concocting strange sonic
morsels and treating recipes as if they were scores. The lines between what is
on the screen and what is on the soundtrack are blurred, with the band (mostly)
using the exact same equipment (which they loaned to the production) and recipes
as in the film. However, for all the conceptual rigour on display, the music on
the Flux Gourmet is ultimately in pursuit of catharsis, as one character
concedes. The power of music and/or noise to purge and cleanse its makers (and
hopefully, listeners) of their ills and woes.
