arbor press release...

arbor 111; lp album rene hell / three legged race violin petal {auden} / whipped secrets rene hell and three legged race investigate the space where classically outsider musical forms begin to intersect with more popular ones. taking cues from science fiction and early electronic / tape music and translating them through lens of minimal techno and the personal logic of bedroom recording ; both creating something unclassifiable in it’s hybrid form. rene hell’s four part suite violin petal {auden} follows his recent lp on type with it’s distinct form of digital synthesis and future-concrète; cyclic music expanding and contracting throughout a cybernetic space. the confusion of communication, control source unknown. signals crossed along a technological drift. robert beatty’s three legged race presents a three part suite, whipped secrets. investigating herein an application of early ‘automatic’ synthesizer music manipulated into linear form based song structure. developing softly, the first movement sounds like a loner folk recording from a distant future time ; complete with vocals, staring sad eyed across an open expanse, contemplating the state of things. slowly, this form unravels into a more abstract and ‘automatic’ based territory ; rhythmic and melodic staccato signals possessed with an almost intelligent logic of their own. communication shifts from the man to his machine. in an edition of 400 copies with glossy jackets featuring images by each artist and printed inner sleeves and center labels designed by jeff witscher.

burning star core papercuts theater noq022lp, no quarter ah, the live album: often a tool for bands looking to wiggle out of contracts or perhaps, squeeze a few more pennies from a loyal fanbase. rare is it a work of art. inspired by these singular instances (grayfolded, the grateful dead; sonic death, sonic youth; in search of spaces, flying saucer attack) c. spencer yeh, the lone constant of the long-running burning star core project, conceptualized papercuts theater: one long piece (broken into four movements) culled from over sixty live performances, spanning years and continents. these formerly disparate relics of time and space now exist as one: a sonic document of the present.

-- various artists - resonant hole, vol. 1 cdr mysterious compilation featuring eyes & arms of smoke, ara, three legged race, attempt, and irene moon, along with a host of tantalizing obscurities comprising the bulk of its 35-track, 70 minute duration. more questions than answers, here. jeanne vomit-terror sums it up pretty tidily: what is a hole? well, look around, because they can be found almost anywhere. your body is full of holes with distinct names and distinct uses, each abundant with a distinct mucous membrane, like a state bird. look up at the sky. it’s the biggest hole of all—-a hole so big that it goes all the way around you, and there’s no way to know whether you’ve fallen in or whether it’s even a hole at all. you yourself are a hole in the aether. a hole in the hole. you are a shallow hole with yourself at the bottom. your perimeter is malleable and consuming. that is, when you touch a hole, it becomes a part of the you-hole. because a hole is whole. the resonant hole is a useful one. it is a refracting lens for sound and thought, so that all that passes through it is stripped of order and meaning, so that we might know what our sounds are really trying to tell us. it is also a contagion, seeking to include and redefine your whole. this is not a music compilation, it is a mass hallucination. no matter what words you speak into the well, the echo that issues forth is a voice unfamiliar because it is not a sound—at least not as we understand sound. it is a vibration, shaking loose something ancient and intangible, opening the secret streets in the map of your mind, streets with names like rzrz and the appearants and silverware and idiot glee and hugo wheel. some streets are initially familiar, and so you stride confidently, comforted by lamps and shops and trees you know. but they lead not to a home, a heart, but into more holes… holes in holes in holes in holes in holes! a hole so big that it cannot be closed. we are at the bottom and still falling. hole is where the hear is.
