an ominous,
brooding, industrial soundtrack to something unthinkable Like
awakening from sleep to discover you have become strapped to a table in a
huge, dimly lit cavern ... a monstrous vision of impending doom [ TERRASCOPE : United kingdom ] a drone
soaked landscape that�s musky and gloriously insular, with extra heavy bass
plummets that attempt to conceal the sun � Like David
Lynch's film Eraserhead in a setting of Throbbing Gristle, Sone Institute,
Earth and Crippled Black Phoenix � Inimitable Abandon hope
listeners, for this CD drags your ears off to the deepest, darkest parts of
the woods and commits unspeakable acts upon them � perfect listening for the
inevitable encroaching darkness of autumn CHRIS VIDELL : TAG CLOUD Tag Cloud started in 2009 as a series of
best-forgotten experiments with field recordings and has come to include
analog electronics, effects, cheap keyboards, metal percussion, and shruti
box. Best described at this point as "electroacoustic sound sculpture
and carpets of drone." Tag Cloud was among contributors to the Long
Division with Remainders '14 versions of the same EP' project site and also
available in a box-set collection with all fourteen versions plus an
additional digital-download outtake 'Remainders.' HE has collaborations with
Blue Sausage Infant, Daniel Barbiero and Gary Rouzer, the electronic duo
Cable Rot with Doug Stailey, as well as the improv group Safe Fast &
Effective. His debut release 'Named Entities' (Zeromoon) was released in
2012. �WINTER HOURS� (ZEROMOON) his second album was released in 2013. JS ADAMS : BLK w/BEAR Originally a
solo effort of Adams and now a full-band effort with Doug Poplin, Ren�e Shaw
and PD Sexton, BLK w/BEAR have garnered glowing reviews and
international airplay for the thought-provoking and moving 'Wish for a World
Without Hurt' collaboration with London's ROTHKO and the limited edition
'fahrenheit_drafts' 12-inch single (Trace Recordings). Their audio has
accompanied film/video projects in NYC and London and selections from 'Wish
for a World' were used in the Discovery Channel's poignant 'The Flight that
Fought Back' program. The four-track 'Version 3' extended play is available
for download at the Long Division with Remainders '14 versions of the same
EP' project site and also available in a box-set collection with all fourteen
versions, plus an additional bonus digital-download outtakes EP including a
21-minute remix of their Version 001. The mini-album �Sorry about your
(remixes)� was released on Front & Follow (UK) in 2011; '[E]xpertly done
ambient bliss with moments of unrestrained beauty' - Norman Records. IN 2013,
BLK w/BEAR RELEASED 'THE FINAL MAPPING OF NEW CONSTELLATIONS' (LITTLE CRACKD
RABBIT) AND REMIXED SELECTIONS FOR BRONZE EYE AND FUZZY LIGHTS. Additional
material has been released through Ultra-red�s free download site Public
Record, Little Red Squirrel Collective (UK), Cohort Recordings and Sonic
Circuits� District of Noise imprint. '...like Basic Channel at their most
abstract, and after a severe nervous breakdown' - Wire Magazine. Adams is also
founding member and artistic director of stylus � an ensemble of local dc
avant-gardE musicians who perform exclusively on vintage califone
audio-visual record players using locked-groove and prepared vinyl
recordings. + Doug Poplin :
