Phantasies And Senseitions
''Phantasies and Senseitions'' is the debut studio album of Bügsküll, released in 1994 by Road Cone. Critical reception A critic for ''Alternative Press'' compared the band favorably to The Residents, Sun Ra, The Orb, Eggs and early Sebadoh, saying the music "has the refreshing splendor of naive folk art, that sense of being timeless and utterly natural." He lauded the band for their sense of adventure and concluded that "Bugskull breathe ingenuity like the rest of us breathe oxygen." In a mixed review, Dean Suzuki of the music journal '' Option'' described the album as "a skittish and disorienting spectrum of different musical genres" and likened it to "listening to the soundtrack of a hyperactive and artily pretentious foreign film." He concluded by saying that although the band was talented that they needed to tighten their sound Track listing Personnel Adapted from the ''Phantasies and Senseitions'' liner notes. ;Bügsküll *Brendan Bell – bass guitar, keyboa ...

Lo-fi Music Groups
Lo-fi (also typeset as lofi or low-fi; short for low fidelity) is a music or production quality in which elements usually regarded as imperfections in the context of a recording or performance are present, sometimes as a deliberate stylistic choice.

Lo-fi began to be recognized as a style of popular music in the 1990s, when it became alternately referred to as DIY music (from "do it yourself"). Some subsets of lo-fi music have become popular for their perceived nostalgic and/or relaxing qualities, which originate from the imperfections that define the genre. Traditionally, lo-fi has been characterized by the inclusion of elements normally viewed as undesirable in most professional contexts, such as misplayed notes, environmental interference, or phonographic imperfections (degraded audio signals, ...
