Minus RF Star (in computer speak "-rf *"), means "include everything". The influences are wide taking in Steve Reich, Charlie Parker, Plaid, A Winged Victory for the Sullen, but the music's roots are in the early 90s live techno scene, Club Dog and squat parties, muddy fields and Orbital's Brown Album, all nighters with PWOG and Aphex Twin - a time before genres crystalized and became impenetrable barriers. Ian Jury said "Every bit of clothing ought to make you pretty". Minus RF Star says every bit of music ought to be a hook. No passengers, no starch, all flavour. Sounds, beats, tunes, harmony, include everything.
Minus RF Star is the project of Ab Wilson who in previous lives has been a jobbing bassist playing jazz, trip hop, blue grass, new folk, you name it, and modular synthesist using the Roland System 100M but progressing onto virtual modulars - Reaktor and Nord. He also curates the monthly Super Noodles EMOM.
