Dead Air Fresheners The Dead Air Fresheners are a Portland, Oregon , Olympia, Washington , and Seattle , Washington-based experimental and post-punk musical group with a somewhat fluctuating membership. They have been described by Portland's KPSU as "A long-time mainstay of the Experimental Rock Scene." They count Sun Ra , John Cage , Sonic Youth , Sun City Girls , and Jandek as influences.Band history The band formed around 1996. They claim to have first formed "in a dilapidated beachfront mansion on the Eld Inlet in Thurston County , Washington" ; in any event, they first performed publicly in the late 1990s at Olympia, Washington's annual Olympia Experimental Music Festival . Their instrumentation has been known to include Moog synthesizer , and tape samples , drums, ambient vocals, distorted feedback , electric guitar , computers and digital toys, and digeridoo . The Dead Air Fresheners state in interviews and on their My Space page that they do not play improvised music despite frequent perceptions to the contrary. Rather they use a process of Chance Music composition influenced by the work of John Cage and their Myspace page provides several examples of scores from past performances. They have done several live radio performances; portions of their hour-long session with poet Chuck Swaim on KEXP's "Sonarchy Radio" were included as songs in the self-released album Pleasure Is Where All Labor Ends and two performances on KPSU are on that station's archives.Band members Because of their penchant for anonymity, masks, and costumes, there is no definitive list of the group's membership. Nonetheless, several publications covering either the experimental music scene or entertainment in the Pacific Northwest have reported them to have included at various times members of such bands as Olympia's now defunct Karp , Austin, Texas'...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead , Bellingham, Washington's Noggin, and Portland, Oregon's Nice Nice. In Signum magazine, writer Tiffany Lee Brown implies strongly that Olympia Experimental Music Festival founder Jim McAdams is one of the anonymous musicians in the group. Matt Driscoll of the Weekly Volcano states this outright. McAdams's wife, Deanne Rowley McAdams, died 3 August 2011. Her obituary in The Olympian indicates that she was a member of the group, and that she had also played with Texas and Pacific Northwest bands Plain Jane , Trail of Dead , Pro-Ex Marauders, and Cherry 2000 , and that she had a band of her own called Leopards.Discography I Try To Show My Love , Plastic Duck Records , 1999 Verses of Echo , Bastard Customer , and Pleasure Is Where All Labor Ends , with poet Chuck Swaim, 2001–2003 An Ulcer is a String of Pearls , 2006, Kill Pop Tarts a Slip Inside the Quiet Room , 2007, Icky Recordings Separated by Commas , 2010, Dubuque Strange Music Society Extension Cord Symphony 9 , Fast Radio Bursts , Personal Archives Evidence of Superstructures II Brother Calls Also included in compilations: Infamous Polywogs Vol. 1? , Inlet Recordings, 2002 Infamous Polywogs Vol. 2? , Kill Pop Tarts, 2004 Reek of Influence , Icky Recordings, 2006 "Five Minutes in Dog Years" track on compilation Winter Copulation 2016 , SadoDaMascus Records Source for discography :
