Decisive thoughts by the intermediate flare by Ronny Wærnes and Hal McGee is a noisy microcassette duo collaboration consisting of field recordings, electronics, percussion, household objects, toys, distorted sounds in four tape collages of accidental juxtapositional simultaneous chaos that is as fun to listen to as it was for us to make.
