'''Experimental Audio Research''' is a group formed around [[Peter Kember]] (a.k.a. Sonic Boom), formerly of [[Spacemen 3]]. To quote from the liner notes of the first '''E.A.R.''' full-length release, ''Mesmerised'', "'''E.A.R.''' is a loose affiliation of non-resident "sound makers" including from time to time Sonic Boom ([[Peter Kember|Spectrum]], Spacemen 3), [[Kevin Martin]] (God), [[Kevin Shields]] ([[My Bloody Valentine]]), and [[Eddie Prévost]] ([[AMM]]) amongst others." Other collaborators have included [[Lawrence Chandler]] of [[Bowery Electric]], the late [[Delia Derbyshire]] and [[Thomas Köner]], plus various members of Spectrum, though it is generally considered a Kember solo project. Commonly shortened to '''E.A.R.''' or '''EAR''', the collective is one of Kember's several post-Spacemen 3 projects, which also include Spectrum, as well albums released under the Sonic Boom moniker.
