meditations - II - anathema sound - cass - 6$
The brooding calm after the ugly descent into entropy that was I, II offers a different glimpse into the world of Meditations with a release of utterly bleak, lo-fi ambience. Created using very little, both sides use heavy doses of restraint and cold melody to create a tense, yet staid atmosphere. This is late night music for watching the world smolder.

jamie allen - circuitMusic - anathema sound - cass - 6$
Jamie Allen is a Canadian artist currently residing in the UK. With circuitMusic, he uses raw op amp components with minimal effects to experiment and revel in the sound of pure, electric signals. Allen’s compositions are streamlined, yet remarkably varied with harsh walls of static, dense drones, and playful rhythms all vying for the listener’s headspace. This piece has been performed at venues throughout North America including Tonic (NYC), Galapagos (NYC), Eyebeam (NYC), SAT (MTL), and the S.S. Marie Antoinette (WA). Be prepared to turn this one up extra loud and get lost in it. Full color artwork, inserts, and labels by Matt Yacoub.

meditations - anathema sound - cass - 6$
Ultra-crude, single-mic recordings from a new unit informed by harsh noise, raw black metal, and the id. With zero regard for fidelity and blasphemous intent, this is a document of unbridled frustration and anguish. No good vibes in here. With full color artwork, inserts, and labels by Matt Yacoub.

bones of seabirds - nihyanisyati - anathema sound - cass - 6$
Hailing from Athens, GA, Bones of Seabirds is Ryan McGill. A devout slave to the tube-driven drone, McGill sets aside the axe for two synth passages, one sidelong and one brief, which seek transcendence by swathing the ears with layer upon layer of dark sine waves. The cassette ends by way of a blissful return to the guitar with massive crunch and a melody that grows increasingly sinister until its dizzying finale. With full color artwork, inserts, and labels by Matt Yacoub.
