Three songs 'The Devil is Afraid of Music', 'Look What They Done to My Song' and 'How Does it Feel?' were performed and filmed in the exhibition space of Matt's Gallery making it into an open recording session and film set for a three day period.

Through the subsequent editing process the material was subjected to radical temporal shifts in the form of loops, overlays, speeding up, slowing down and repetition, creating rhythms, counterpoints and silences, all exploring the construction of song and narrative expectation forming a drama (or crisis) of performance.

The songs themselves are literally at stake, their survival questioned through these processes of translation.
