Reviews of More Songs About Factories:
"......Hannan's debut is a five part piece comprising heavily processed location recording of industrial sites. Churning mechanised repetition is the order of the day, Hannan diving deep into her source material. Whether the album represents a celebration or a critique of the machine, or perhaps even a valedictory essay on post-industrial decay, is anyone's guess. But it sounds good... " Keith Moline WIRE Jan 2006
"....The industrial sound of a factory or worksite make great source material and Hannan has crafted together some very interesting and quite complex pieces that move well beyond mere documentation. In Hannan's hands the rythnmic elements in particular become hypnotic cogs in a great sound piece, often layered with rumbling sweeping drones coming from afar..." Bob Baker Fish Inpress Feb 2006
".....Amongst the many rumbling, mostly deep-tone soundscapes and altered field recordings currently available, it is becoming increasingly difficult to articulate precisely what distinguishes one from another. In Hannan's case it appears to predominantly be this alternation between wide voluminousness and compacted density. ....Hannan's relative emphasis on sound design over composition may be a wise strategy (in as much as the 2 can really be separated within this genre). Nevertheless, Hannan certainly shows on More Songs… that she can throb and grate with the best of them, so I look forward to seeing if her earlier, more harmonic, musique-concrète approach and otherwise glancing sonic shapes might return in future releases to give her field recordings yet another level of overt distinction. In any case, this is a fine new release within a populous but still growing form...."Jonathan Marshall Real Time Earbash May 2006
