RAREYOUTH 033LP
|
"Limited pressing of 250 copies, on clear vinyl. Wind Chimes gathers material from a recent sound installation and performance. Following up on his last LP, Filtered Water, Mullen continues to use site-specific recordings as a means to explore the sonic characteristics of a given space; yet here the focus is on the idea of feedback-as-process. Using field recordings and staged acoustic environments, Wind Chimes introduces us to a familiar object - in this case, a pair of mass-produced bamboo wind chimes - and listens as they undergo a series of sonic and spatial manipulations. The original sounds are copied and altered, and eventually re-amplified in different spaces, until new forms emerge and collide with both real and manufactured fidelities. The LP version is presented as a series of miniatures, cut in mono, with liner notes and links to additional audio for a wide range of home-listening possibilities. Ideal for blending with your own home-electronics, HVAC's, and outdoor wildlife. Each record is housed in a white tip-on sleeve and comes with a color paste-on and insert."

RAREYOUTH 031LP
|
"This album is a collection of songs from Larry Marshall, an elusive and mythic figure whose self-described 'Gothic Folk...from the future' is presented here for the first time in glowing, psychedelic stereo-surround, etched on black wax. Larry has been living in Rhode Island for his entire life, and has performed at many of the storied (and now defunct) venues in and around Providence, RI. Despite this long history, his music is barely known outside of a small circle of close friends and die-hard local fans. Queer And Wonder is a collection of songs from Larry's catalog: three tracks were previously released on a small cassette edition from Unskilled Labor, and a track by the band Box Patrol (w/Larry on vocals and pitch-pipe), was previously released on a CDR by the legendary Fort Thunder Records. The LP is rounded off w/ a few live tracks from a solo gig in Manchester, England, a live radio session, and some collaborations unearthed from tapes found in Larry's apartment in West Warwick, RI. Edition of 350, covers designed by CF, w/ inserts / lyric sheet."

Debut CD on Geoff Mullen's label, featuring new music from Providence, RI. "Here it is...a year in the making...a collection of new music from one of the most fertile and constantly changing locales in the union. Featuring over two hours of music and spread out over thirty-eight tracks, Rare Youth brings together some of the most exciting artists at work in Providence right now: Work/Death, Kites, Black Pus, Xerxes, Heart2Heart, Russian Tsarcasm, Blue Shift, Lazy Magnet, Byron House, Teenage Waistband, Black Forest/Black Sea, Unicorn Hard-On, Synb, Leif Goldberg, Siege Engine, Lucky Dragons AND MANY MANY MORE. Sequenced to highlight the great diversity of musical stylings in this small town, this CD takes you on a smooth ride down the many colorful roads of: power pop psych noise, abandoned dronescapes, reckless free improvisation, emo power electronics, late night elven dance music, epic psych rock, shredded throat guitar doom, john carpenter-esque synth despair, witty no-fi punkish noise, genuine teenage love songs, total garbage, marching bands, etc. etc. With the attention that Providence has received for being a hub of louder-than-life, experimental music/art, this compilation tries to provide an updated snapshot of the current subterranean goings-on. It includes many of the artists who are responsible for bringing such acclaim and attention to this small community -- Brian Chippendale (Lightning Bolt, Black Pus), Mat Brinkman, Leif Goldberg, Jo Dery, Christopher Forgues -- while also calling attention to some of the new and young artists who are taking things in different and exciting directions -- Russian Tsarcasm, Alberich, Heart2Heart, Blue Shift, Summer City, Byron House. There are also a handful of tracks featuring visiting artists (Pedestrian Deposit, Brian Miller and Kevin Shields...). Hand-packaged in a double-CD gatefold sleeve."
