Mark is currently working with
Trad Arr (isn't everyone?) and also playing some solo gigs in and around London. All of Marks CD's will be be
available via Fuzzynoise later in the summer, but for the moment, here are some
MPs and words from the man himself...
I was formed in 1970 in Rush Green Hospital. I started writing songs when I was
7 after hearing the Sex Pistols and Ian Dury.
The F.O.S - This is the F.O.S
Mark Cottrell, Darren Hunt, Rob Lynch& Steve Oswald.
The F.O.S got toGETHER AT THE ' FREAK OUT' STUDIO IN COLLIER ROW IN 1990. WE
RECORDED & POISONED EACH OTHERS BRAINS FOR 4 YEARS THEN IMPLODED. THE REMAINING
DEBRIS IS A PSYCHEDELIC/AMBIENT DANCE ALBUM (SPACEMEN 3 MEET THE PRODIGY AND
BEAT UP THE ORB)
RAW ESSENTIALS - THE GREEN
RUSH
MARK COTTRELL & CLIFF
FREEBORN.
WE MET IN BACKTRAX SECOND HAND RECORD SHOP IN ILFORD & PLANNED TO TAKE
OVER THE WORLD. UNFORTUNATELY OUR WORLD WAS A LITTLE INTERCOURSED AT THE TIME.
THE ALBUM WAS RECORDED IN
1994 ON 8 TRACK AT 'FREAK OUT' (DURING THE FINAL DAYS OF THE F.O.S.) & IN 1996
ON 4 TRACK AT MT FLAT IN MANOR PARK (MORE OF THAT LATER)
WEEPING SORES - THE SWEET
REVENGE OF THE WEEPING SORES
THIS WAS THE REAL STUFF (I
THOUGHT).
NONE OF THIS NAMBY PAMBY
DANCE MUSIC. I WANTED TO RIP PEOPLES BRAINS OUT WITH SOUND. UNFORTUNATELY, I WAS
ON MY OWN & NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY. THINGS WERE GOING A BIT MENTAL AND SO WAS i.
ALSO RECORDED AT 'FREAK OUT' 1993 TO 1994.
WEEPING SORES - THE
BLURRED VISIONS OF THE WEEPING SORES
THE AFTERMATH OF FREAK OUT
STUDIO AND (MY THEN) FIANCEE TRYING TO KNIFE ME IN OUR FLAT CAUSED A RETHINK. I
MOVED INTO A FLAT IN FOREST GATE & MY MATE BOB DONATED AN AMSTRAD 4 TRACK (WITH
TURNTABLE AND TUNER ATTACHED).
i WAS REBORN.
I STARTED MY OWN TAPE
LABEL AND GAVE AWAY MY STUFF EVERYWHERE I WENT (WHETHER ANYONE WANTED IT OR NOT
WAS BESIDE THE POINT). I RECORDED 10 ALBUMS IN TWO YEARS (95-96) WITH ANYONE WHO
HAPPENED TO BE THERE. THINGS OBVIOUSLY GOT OUT OF CONTROL MORE OFTEN THAN NOT.
THIS ALBUM IS A COMPILATION OF SOME OF THE LESS EXTREME MOMENTS.
CATS ON HEAT
PETE BROWN, MARK COTTRELL,
EMILY GOLDSWORTHY, ROB LYNCH & STEVE OSWALD
AHEM! ONE OF THE MORE
EXTREME NIGHTS RECORDED ON 4 TRACK AT THE FLAT IN MANOR PARK, 1996.
