REVIEWS
"Sanderson invited artists to adopt his source material however they sought fit, with one provision: each track had to be exactly two minutes long. Button Box is the result, an amazing 46 tracks from sources as close as a next door neighbor to as far away as distant continents, from virtual unknowns to Lee Noyes and Linear Bells. As one might expect, the collection is vastly uneven, yet endlessly fascinating. In the hands of Dead Voices on air, “Stalactite” (only two minutes long to begin with) becomes the thicker ”Stalagmite”, while Kate Denny changes it to the percussively odd “Stalacbite”, with heavy breathing. Weatherglass creates an ambient piece with “Rubato Tins”, while skitter goes in the opposite direction and makes everything sound abrasive. Mick Scrivens adds piano; Peter Marsh adds a beat (partially taken from the clock sample in “Shade”); Kendo adds real drums; K.A. Laidy adds a monologue; Clive Pearman adds a banjo; Steven Ball sings. At times the air buttons seem to have gotten lost in the couch, but everyone seems to be having a blast. There’s enough here for every taste: ambient, drone, rhythm, singer-songwriter. (And not just straight singing; some very unusual inflections are on display.) It’s fun to think of Sanderson’s reaction when all of these remixes started coming in. Together, the albums create a fascinating pair, one that deserves to be repackaged in a physical set with actual buttons. The melodeon isn’t a common instrument, but this album may help to increase awareness"
