annapurna iIlusion - heat of the fire, heat of the sun - earjerk - cdr - 7$

Expansive, mountainous waves of drone roll, creating a beautiful backdrop to the intricate organic noises that float on the surface. The debut release of Annapurna iIlusion, presents us with four tracks of woven electric breath which can either lull you into a dreamstate or pummel your head against the shore, depending upon how loud you play it. Brings to mind those times when The Beastmaster would like, have his bird fly way up in the air and then he could like, see through the birds eyes and stuff..oh man! ..I'll change that tomorrow. Want to write more but need sleep! Just believe me, This Slays!.. More info here: myspace.com/annapurnaillusions

e.c. brown and i'diamond - gothick reforme - earjerk - cass - 6$

Everything just keeps getting darker and darker... It just must be time for this lost treasure to be unearthed. In 2001 someone gave me a cd-r. They said they knew I liked "strange music" and they thought I should have this. The cover art was a robed figure with a golden mask and the back of the cd-r had a similar female figure, posing with similar robes and a different mask. Both figures were set against a background of neon pink and yellow forest leaves. Somehow, despite the colors, there was something distinctly ominous about the artwork for this cd-r. And the same can be said of the sounds within. Truly ahead of it's time, I had no frame of reference for this at this point in my life. I kept the cd-r mostly to myself; a secret revealed only to some. Very few were ready to except it's slimy, sometimes oppressive atmospheres. It's jarring, film score "scene changes". And it's mixture of Free(k) Folk, Noise and even Black Metal tendencies. Earjerk tracked down Mr. Brown and was stupified to learn that a mere 35 copies of this cd-r exsist! Well, no longer will this linger in dark corners of cardboard boxes and basement floors, subject to CD rot and digital decay. Earjerk has re-issued this wonder for all the world to hear. The original artwork has been lovingly re-formatted for cassette. Puke pink or yellow cassettes with two different covers. Buy this. Be the first to say you weren't there. ($6)

second family band - logos destroyer - earjerk - cass - 6$

On side A, SFB conjure the sounds of a somber, drifting, purple cloud. The presence of Dan Woodman and T. Endless, the two main members of drunjus, is undeniable on this droner. db Pedersen's buoyant bansuri flute and throat singing float on the edge of the audible surface and Ol'sons subtleties never distract. Side B: Another cosmic noise conference at the Peaking Lights compound featuring a killer crew of Family members and collaborators old and new!

pan to scratch - the sourcerer - earjerk - cass - 6$

Daily, solitary, outdoor rituals documented over two months time in the Fall of 2008. Field recordings and multi-layer melodica musings crumble and decay over the 15 meditative minutes comprising side A of the latest Object Tapes release. Side B is a version on this number, with the drifting melodica drone having a bit more presence this time and taking on a pensive contemplative mood, punctuated with bells and minimal instrumentation. As with the release on Cabin Floor Esoterica, this is dedicated to the great Olivier Messiaen.

andy futreal - did you find it - earjerk - cass - 6$

Andy Futreal - "Did you find it?" - cassette -On his first release on Sloow Tapes Andy melted minds with his oud improvisations, tape manipulations and radio freque-ing. This tape is no exception. Cassette walkman, microcassette recorder, laud, pedals and something called a postcard weevil are just some of the objects Andy employed this time around. This cassette reveals another mystery each time you listen. If you've had the pleasure of checking out his first release, the A-side of this one might surprise you; a very heavy, heady lapsteel guitar journey through steep orange and brown canyon walls with blue sky and soaring eagle.You'll want to take this journey again and again to really appreciate everything that is going on.
