ROB SEZ: Christchurch noise rock gurus Bailter Space (aka Bailterspace) aren't really my cup of tea, musically speaking. Yet they fit the bill for this NZ series, and they're the "successor band" to the Gordons. Plus, Bailter Space is undeniably good at what they do. Here we have a lovely 1999 soundboard recording from the master tape source, recorded & generously shared by crankingamps. All praises to him; I'm just passing along his work. The bonus share is a 4-song Dutch radio compilation from a 1994 live session for VPRO and a much shorter VPRO session from 1995. The names of the taper & sharer have gone missing, unfortunately...
