Hooker Vision is still killing it in the tape game. From the artwork to the curation, everything is absolutely spot-on with Rachel and Grant’s in-house label. This new batch has a lot of new names, and a few we have come to know and love. Zones for days – check it out at hookervision.blogspot.com.
Mammifer, the husband and wife duo from Seattle, team up with Locrian, the strictly platonic threesome from Chicago. If that news doesn’t activate every receptor in your experimental metal erogenous zone, then you are likely dysfunctional. Seems that we have been waiting months and months for this vinyl to be released. The moment is now, [...]
Pretty excited to start this week off announcing a new LP from Celer (even though this actually went up for sale last week!). Nobody does it better than this duo – tones that drift on for days, melodies stretched to their breaking point, drones so heavy they could crush you if they were not so [...]
Sean McCann’s brand new Recital label appears to be up and running at last! Among the first 3 releases is this new collaborative LP from Sean and Matthew Sullivan, and it brings all the strange and sunken sounds that you would expect from this pairing of experimental droners. Limited to 560 copies, with the first [...]
Not much to say here. These records made huge waves last year. An audio documentary of Andy Stott reaching the fabled “next level”. Let’s not get caught up in semantics, these two sets are essential. 2012 repress in stock right now at beta.forcedexposure.com.
This news came in after I’d already posted for the morning, but in the interests of keeping Tape Tuesday alive and making sure the haters have something to steady hate on: here’s some afternoon zones for those of you who still abide the warmth of magnetic tape. Maggot Valley is back with two rad offerings [...]
Besides having one of the best damn distros around, Jeremy Bible’s Experimedia project is seriously picking up steam as a label. Every release within the past year (at least) is completely essential. From the Mouth of the Sun pairs Aaron Martin with Dag Rosenqvist, two heavily accomplished experimental composers, whose force combined has wrought Woven [...]
New realms of sonic immersion from KC’s very own beloved son Justin Wright. The space rock vibes are in full force – repetition and trance driven by hypnotic drones. This project is so good. One-sided 12″ now available from exposeventy.com – limited to 200 copies in silkscreened covers, these are sold out from the label and won’t last [...]
How about a one-sentence description that will make you want to buy a record? Ready? Axel Willner (aka The Field) has made a brand new ambient album. That’s all it takes. It also happens to be just as wondrous and masterful as his electronic creations. Grab it on LP for $22.20 from our good friends [...]
This one showed up at the door and, while it looked cool, I had zero idea who Drog_A_Tek was. Turns out they’re an Grecian audio/visual collective who make strikingly original and varied compositions. Just listen to the album sampler below, you’ll hear everything from creepy film soundtrack to breezy ambient. The pressing and packaging are [...]
