excited to share these two new releases!
nvp061: tac – vibrations 7” lathe and artifacts CDR
 |
 |
if
you know tac, you know what joy awaits. if you don’t know tac, think
electronics / field recordings collected and assembled in ways designed
to provoke uncertainty of
source material and composition process and you’re (kind of) in the
right ballpark….maybe. jeph jerman, joe colley, and chop shop are not
too far afield. as
for the packaging…again, if you know tac’s work, you’re likely already
all in…and in for a treat. if you don’t, here’s a hint: almost
hermetically sealed. here’s another hint: unequivocally hand made.
bonus: the lathe was cut for visual appeal.
edition of 24 copies.
$28 ppd in US: overseas, get in touch so I can calculate shipping costs to your location.
nvp064: Jacob DeRaadt: Universal Hotel CDR

I
first knew Jacob’s work as Sterile Garden, which I enjoyed immensely:
“wonderfully uncomfortable” electronics, let’s call it. this release,
his second solo work under his own name, is primarily field
recordings—as Jacob says, it focuses on “water and natural and urban domestic sounds of places I lived in, with very little or no effects or manipulation.”
personally, this feels a bit of a descriptive oversimplification, if
only because the choices of sounds to capture (and then present here)
reflect Jacob’s ear for creating small “scenarios” with each track. akin
to what I noted with tac, Jacob is definitely playing on the same side
of the street as jeph jerman, albeit by slightly different rules....
edition of 45 copies.
$11 ppd in US: overseas, get in touch so I can calculate shipping costs to your location.
thanks as always for your interest and support!
