Nurse With Wound mp3

Nurse With Wound or NWW is a British music band, formed in 1978 by Steven Stapleton, John Fothergill and Heman Pathak.Their early recordings, all made quickly, were heavily influenced by free improvisation and Krautrock and were generally considered industrial music, despite the objections of the group.

By 1981, only Stapleton was left from the original trio and he now regards 1982's Homotopy to Marie, as being the first proper Nurse With Wound release. There are now over 30 full length NWW titles. Stapleton's fondness for dada, surrealism and absurdist humor are demonstrated in much of NWW's output, which, though it draws directly on nearly every musical genre imaginable (from cabaret music to nursery rhymes to John Cage to The Beach Boys to krautrock to pop music to ambient music and Captain Beefheart) retains a distinctive and recognizable aura.

Musique concrete may be the most prominent touchstone, due to Stapleton's frequent – and often humorous – use of creative tape loops and editing. This aesthetic is fully represented in the artwork that features on the album covers, virtually all of which is created by Stapleton, mostly under the pseudonym "Babs Santini".

Although Stapleton has sole curatorship of NWW, the group has a long and illustrious list of collaborators including Jim Thirwell of Foetus, Tony Wakeford, David Jackman of Organum, Andrew McKenzie of The Hafler Trio, Jim O'Rourke, Christoph Heemann, William Bennett of Whitehouse, Rob Haigh, Annie Anxiety, John Balance, Matt Waldron of Irr. App (Ext) and most regularly David Tibet of Current 93. At time of writing, NWW is a core duo of Stapleton and Colin Potter, the latter having first worked with NWW on 1992's "Thunder Perfect Mind" when it was recorded at Potter's ICR studio. Potter has appeared on almost every NWW release since.

In 2006 Nurse With Wound returned to live performance after a 20 year absence, first appearing at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco and , in December, at the All Tomorrow's Parties festival organized by Thurston Moore. Stapleton recently reported to a Dutch radio station that he is working on a collaboration with British sound artist Andrew Liles and is halfway through his long-promised "hip-hop" album, with around 5-6 female rap artists guesting. On February 14th 2007, Stapleton played a DJ set at the experimental music night Stress!! in Club De Burgo's, Galway City, Ireland.
