Tiny Dynamine

About

Tiny Dynamine is an EP by the Scottish rock group Cocteau Twin, released on 4AD Record. The EP features four non-album track. It was issued on 15 November 1985, two weeks prior to another EP entitled Echoes in a Shallow Bay. The two EP set, which feature complementary artwork, were also released together as an 8 track CD. The EP was re-issued in 1991 as part of The Box Set and in 2005 as part of the singles/EP collection Lullabies to Violaine. The band did not originally intend to release these songs to the general public, presumably explaining the decision to release the material on EP, rather than as what would have been their fourth album. The tracks on Tiny Dynamine and Echoes in a Shallow Bay were initially recorded to test the production capacities of a new studio. When the band decided the material was strong enough for release, they completed the recording process and issued the finished product on two EP. "Pink Orange Red" and "Plain Tiger" have been performed live. An acoustic version of "Pink Orange Red" appears on the 1995 EP Twinlight, and a remastered version appears on the 2000 compilation Stars and Topsoil. .
