Sweet Exorcist was a British music duo consisting of Richard Barratt (DJ Parrot) and Richard H. Kirk. Their sound is usually categorized as techno and IDM. ==Career== Sweet Exorcist, which was named after a Curtis Mayfield track, was the project of Sheffield based musicians Richard H. Kirk (Cabaret Voltaire) and Richard ‘DJ Parrot’ Barratt (later member of All Seeing I). Kirk and Barratt knew each other since the mid-1980s. Barratt had already supported a Cabaret Voltaire British tour in 1986.〔 After both worked on several tracks together Parrot suggested making a club track with studio test tones.〔 In the January of 1990 the tracks were released as ''Testone'' on Warp. It defined the bleep techno sound, by making playful use of sampled sounds from Yellow Magic Orchestra's ''Computer Game'' (1978) and the film ''Close Encounters of the Third Kind'' (1977).〔Dan Sicko, Bill Brewster: ''Techno Rebels: The Renegades of Electronic Funk.''

In 1991 the duo released the ''C.C.E.P.'', which later came as CD version ''C.C.C.D.'' and was also known as ''Clonks Coming''. The band released the album ''Spirit Guide To Low Tech'' on Touch Records. 2011 saw the release of the compilation album ''RetroActivity'' on Warp. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sweet Exorcist (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
