In March of 2020, for the first time since its inception in 2008 Leicester's monthly Quadelectronic improvisation session at Quad Studios had to be cancelled due to hitherto unique and unprecedented circumstances: the public's enforced lockdown against contamination from Covid-19. As a nearest achievable alternative, Quadelectronic's "ringmaster" Chris Conway had the idea of doing it remotely via contributed solo recordings which could then be mixed into intuitive combinations. This album is the forty-sixth installment in the series.
