A young musical genius... another rare freak in the scene... just another noise producer...a great experimental composer. Anyway, Sir Edgar Carpenter is very known in the internet noise scene, as just another freak. Indeed, he called himself "the new freak in the scene, but who cares?"
In few words, Edgar considered himslef as a stranger, a very good title for his art, and a very good title for this new album: Stranger. A strange release in all possible ways: a powerfull noise made at the A.S.S. Studios, and later, re-reworked at Adolph DicksAppoiuted's Machine Studios. The resulting product: an interesting envolving sound.
Stranger features classical music samples, some of them, very obvious, and other, hidden on the noises. This album also features an unique piece called "The Worship", composed by Edgar and Sidd Anders (professional composer). This song was featured on a theatre performance from Edgar's school, and along with his signature piece "I Killed Maggot", is one of the most famous pieces by Sir Edgar Carpenter by his fans (it was performed on many of his shows during 2009 and 2011).
