      1994 "Lovesongs Of Chaos And Desire" biography

      "Lovesongs Of Chaos And Desire" is a collection of fifteen sonorous pop melodies and exotic textures by Edmonton, Alberta based band The Sensualists. Their sound is a powerfully crafted mixture of extended studio manipulated guitars, effects, percussion and vocals. Its styles and moods vary from that of swirling ambient instrumentals to accessible guitar/vocal songs.

      Formed in 1990, The Sensualists is the culmination of ten years of collaboration between vocalist Mandy Cousins and Michael Turner. Together they formed the core of several groups in Edmonton's underground music scene in the mid to late 1980s.

      Since its initial release, "Lovesongs Of Chaos And Desire" has been receiving attention from college radio in both Edmonton and Calgary. At Calgary's CJSW, they have recently charted at #3, which has resulted in a series of live concerts in that city. At the national level, CBC FM programmes "Real-Time" and "Brave New Waves" have both featured their songs.

      "Lovesongs Of Chaos And Desire" is The Sensualists' second release produced and recorded in this duo's own studio "The Cold Room". Their first cassette release "Boon" (1992) quickly sold out its entire run and is due for a CD release in the near future. Present plans include development of a solid distribution base for their releases.

      -------
      Formerly known as The Sensualists, Titania are Michael Turner (instrumentation) and Mandy Cousins (voice). Not to be confused with the Portland, Oregon band also called The Sensualists, the group released several cassettes and CDs on their own independently financed label from 1992 through the late 90s. Their home is Edmonton, Alberta in Canada's west. Despite very little exposure, they have a small but dedicated following. Thanks to the Dewdrops label's 1997 compilation "Splashed With Many A Speck", The Sensualists were given a chance to display their music to a wider audience than ever before.
