In​-​flight Entertainment, PIA: Flight 813

about

This bonus track was left off the original collection simply due to time constraint and because it is less a Drekka piece and more a light-hearted travelogue . I really love this mash-up though, and am glad to include it on this re-release . I hope you will sit back, close your eyes and imagine you are stuck on a plane for 18 hours with a screaming little boy behind you crying for his daddy... THE ENTIRE TIME!

from the original press sheet for the cassette release on El Tule:
"This cassette, entitled 'PIA: Flight 831/761' is a 30 minute sound journal I recorded in the airspace of Pakistan on October 16, 1999. While traveling home from Nepal that day, my friends and I were delayed for a few hours in Karachi airport because there was a coup happening in Islamabad! We weren't in any danger, but it was still quite intense. Side A features an extended spontaneous harmonium piece entitled 'Ke Garne' (Nepalese for 'What to do')... layered harmonium melodies blend with the sound of the airport and CNN reporting the coup live as it unfolds. Side B features a 15 minute master-mix of the exciting in-flight entertainment offered on board PIA... enjoy the sound of the plane and an eclectic A.D.D. shitfest of sound!"
