Y allí afuera no hay nadie, todo lo diría si lo preguntáramos en voz alta; y si se nos escuchase preguntarlo; o si se consintiera en recoger esta absurda pregunta. Nadie, salvo el reflejo difuso de todos los rostros en los vidrios intactos empavonados de nadie. / Fragmento de: La pieza Oscura , Por: Enrique Lihn
released march 3, 2008 as an installment in the oscillation III series. sold only as a part of the set.
over the course of the thirty-six minute one for merz, thurston moore (sonic youth, et al) and andrew macgregor (gown, the bastard wing) present the listener with just that - a dense and heady brew of squall and fury. the duo gets down and really gets dirty. seriously, little more is needed by way of description. recorded live by andrew kesin on january 19, 2007 at the issue project room in brooklyn.
Gown es una cubierta de terciopelo que dentro de sí esconde trayectos e historias del basto infinito espacial, locaciones extraterrestres llenas de instantes contemplativos, la inmensa gama de utensilios recolectados crea la fuerza de su núcleo, y absorbe líquido orgánico extraído de las neuronas insertas en la persona de Andrew Macgregor, el sonido es una base de datos que debes tener en cuenta a la hora de escuchar el disco "For The Maples", donde al igual que un libro sagrado, su beneficio es un aprendizaje importante de valores culturales en vías temporales para el mapa del universo desde el primer impulso inicial, basta de palabras, basta de ser manipulados, comienza ahora.
Gown is a cover of velvet that inside yes hides distances and histories of the infinite spatial pack-saddle, extraterrestrial leases full of contemplative instants, the immense range of gathered utensils creates the force of his nucleus, and absorbs organic liquid extracted from the inserted neurons in the person of Andrew Macgregor, the sound is a database that you must bear in mind at the moment of listening to the disc " For The Maples ", where as a sacred book, his benefit is an important learning of cultural values in temporary routes for the map of the universe from the first initial impulse, is enough for words, coarse sewing of being manipulated, begins now.
TLR 058: gown for the maples LP
released january 28, 2008. gown (aka andrew macgregor and otherwise known as one-half of the bark haze with thurston moore) moved from western wassachusetts to nova scotia in mid-2007. before he moved, he wanted to have one big audio blow-out to remember the grand old mass times. with that goal in mind, gown went into the studio with the sunburned hand of the man gang (represented this time out by john moloney, sarah o'shea, ron schneiderman and taylor richardson) to melt some audio consoles. for the maples represents a portion of that recorded output and believe us, it's some massive stuff. sunburned's thick funk presents the perfect background for gown's shredding guitar-play. extremely hot stuff, especially the massive side-long "bending close." click here for a downloadable preview, "taylor's jam."
as per the three lobed standard, for the maples is pressed on 180g RTI vinyl. it is housed within silkscreened jackets (screen work by alan sherry / SIWA) bearing new artwork by gown. the record is from an edition of 698 copies and, and as an added convenience for our vinyl friends, will come packaged with a glass-mastered CD (not CD-R) of the material present on the wax. pre-ordered copies were accompanied by a bonus CD (TLR-059) of previously unreleased gown material.
