Text by Terre Thaemlitz accompanying the Bandcamp release of the album “Soil” (1995) questioning the position of the ambient listener:
“This album was first released through Instinct Records, the owners of which were opposed to my inclusion of any overtly political or sexual texts that might upset their US and European listeners – whom they envisioned to be a-political, spiritual butterflies of an extremely delicate nature.”
