united waters - your first ever river - arbitrary signs – lp – 16$
"If you know the man behind United Waters (B.K.A Brian Sullivan) from anything, you'll know him as the guitar thudder in Brooklyn's densest duo, Mouthus.... The new LP by United Waters rises and falls, slowly and organically - if you're half listening, it's a pleasant stream of organic electronics with the occasional acoustic guitar sound cutting through, perfectly lovely stuff, you could put it on anytime for anybody. But when the headphones go on and lights get dimmed, the evidence of the painstaking work that went into the composition and creation of these tracks is apparent, beautiful and stunning. The image that ran through my mind was Sullivan as a kid, late at night, staring at the black and white snow of the television in the dark - but he's seeing the secret patterns embedded in it, digital sparrows flying to nowhere through psychedelic vectors that no one else can see - or maybe listening to the radio long after the broadcast dropped off and the station stopped broadcasting, and he's able to hear the secret songs that the machines sing to one another in the night." --Peter Meehan

Featuring lil diamond dusty and chill will. "In this extended 3 song jammer, Folk Spectres arabesque acoustic and electric guitar are joined by Diamond Dustys zoned synth moves and the pulse beat shuffles of Chill Will. Guitars wander over all different landscapes from early morning dawn .. mean grinding streets and even desert ozones. The liquid swords have a sharp edge here.

magik markers - baltimore trust - arbitrary signs – cdr – 12$
"Super quality recording of a great I trust my guitar era Magik Markers show in Baltimore back in 2003. The early band were in full effect here, creating tight organic instant no wave compositions each night out of naive guitar, rocking/shambling beats, screams and whatever happened to be going through Elisa Ambrogios mind each night. This is a really cohesive show and it kind of sets the record straight about what the early Markers actually sounded like. The banters on point too. Cool document"
