After a long wait, the Paranoid Foundation are back and are proud to announce the availability of Paranoid Podcast 21 - Crispin Lee's brand-new 24-minute mini album 'Presence in Absentia'.

Needless to say it is very good indeed. Crispin delivers up a heady mix of post-punk, avant-rock and well, eclectism! Featuring lyrical content in French and English for the first time, these 24 minutes are some of the best PF material to be committed to the podcast series yet.

Podcast 20 ready for download

The latest episode of the Paranoid Podcast is now available to download.

This time we have one long track of 32 mins duration. Entirely instrumental, the music could best be described as dark, hypnotic and perhaps somewhat psychedelic.

Paranoid Podcast 19 - Winter 2011/2012

Hi all...

After a brief hiatus, the Paranoid Podcast returns with episode 19. This time we feature more of Crispin Lee's solo excursions under the guise of Paranoid 404. A short 5-track set of brand new material, clocking in at around 16 minutes. In Crispin's own words:

"The following five tracks are a one-off set of recordings to keep the chill at bay, as another Winter of discontent closes in. No titles, no vocals: just a series of unplanned, one-take recordings that fitted together. Enjoy."
Crispin Lee, November 2011

Paranoid 404 - Untitled
Tracks A, B, C, D, E

Another great review for City Paranoid's 'Closedown' courtesy of Dj Astro at Finland's Psychotropic Zone e-zine:

Okay, some more hallucinatory, ice-cold ambient aural tapestry from Paranoid Foundation’s Crispin Lee from London. As you can maybe conclude from the title of this 26-minute 11-tracker, Lee indicates that this is his last disc under the City Paranoid name and the guy is now going to focus on the more collective Paranoid Foundation project again. As usual, Lee tells his dark stories over the psychedelic and very experimental sonic landscape created with manipulated field recordings and acoustic and electronic sound sources in his cool as a cucumber, minimal and motionless style, and there’s no rhythm or melody to be found. Well, maybe there is a bit of melody on the final track “When We Wake” that is also in other ways somewhat different from the otherwise quite similar, short tracks. The atmosphere is very dark, bleak and forlorn, but I still (or just because of it) find myself enjoying the ride.
