Julia LaDense - Not Saturdays (3" cdr)
Julia brings us closer to the heart of the mystery. At times she is almost soothing, but more often she is completely inside this stuttering machine. Her voice is one that reflects a certain isolation nestled in the very heart of seeming connectivity. Unmoving hum meets the fragile identity. Hard to ignore. Presented in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT Julia LaDense - Soho House by kimdawn

mailing list

I'm redoing the e-mail list, so If you want to know when things are out as soon as they drop then either do the "follow" thing on blogspot, or if you'd like an e-mail reminder of updates then just let me know- frankbaugh@inbox.com).

Just trying to simplify a little.

Interstates (etc.) - Sanctuary of Memories (3" cdr)
An absolutely chilling statement from this hard to define artist. Spaced out textures and melodic passages conjure visions of abandoned cities, misty waterways, and lost souls. A vanishing landscape seen from an impossible perspective. Available in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT

Archers by the Sea - They All Dreamt They Were Bears (3" cdr)
The mysterious and illuminating "V" returns with one of his finest works as Archers by the Sea. Here he expertly crafts a iridescent balloon of sound, so beautiful and full that it feels like it's going to envelop everything. It's so easy to get completely lost in this world. The sounds are utterly captivating and strangely comforting. To me, this is pretty close to perfection. SOLD OUT

Endless Endless Endless - Things I Saw (3" cdr)
Endless Endless Endless rip through your fragile psyche to reveal a multifaceted world of pure color and tone. This east coast duo wields guitars, gameboy, and vocals to create their own unique drifting dream world of pure discovery. I'm delighted to be able to present this unique statement which is the perfect complement to their recent self released album, Black Talisman (see the glowing Aquarius write up for more testimonial proof). Perfect journey music. Artwork and custom tiny laser etched talisman by the artists. Available in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT

Inhibitionists - Pfeiffer at the Gates of Hawn (3" cdr)
These are abstracted tonal mazes provided by Denmark's strangest sonic alchemist, Inhibitionists (aka Christian Kann from A Beard of Snails fame). Expertly crafted pathways of textural complexity give way to reveal a moist core. It's a dream vacation on darker pathways- lanterns not provided. Weird nods to 60's psych and pop actresses give no immediate answers as this music exists on another plane entirely -where going to the movies is like washing your face with wet cement. Available in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT

ttotals - annimal skkulls (3" cdr)
This one has been in the works for a while, and I'm very excited to finally be able to unleash this magic on the world. Ttotals are a duo from Nashville, TN creating some of the finest new psychedelic rock music around. This is their debut statement and it contains four beautiful songs built around minimal riffs and pounding drums. They might pay tribute to some of the old greats, but this sound is all their own. I am inspired by what these guys are doing and I hope this reaches some receptive ears. Half of these are going to be with the band at shows, so catch them while you can! Available in a numbered edition of 60 hand stamped 3" cdrs. Cover design by Brian from the band. SOLD OUT from me. Contact the band for copies.

Cruudeuces -Strange Magic (3"cdr)
Cruudeuces provide the perfect sound track for made up midnight rituals in your living room. This is the kind of creep-drone that feels absolutely perfect in its combination of warmth and darkness. This disc won my heart with its strangely caustic yet comforting sounds and I'm proud to present it to you. Catch them while you can and watch out for upcoming releases on Tape Drift and Wet Merchants. Presented in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT

snma -Glow Bleg Maze (3"cdr)
This is a big time squiggle fest from former TN resident Jay Schleidt (current man behind the massive noisearchive.org/darbolistic rex label). As snma, Jay gives you no ground to stand on as he leads you throw the bleg maze. Lots of negative space and a strong singular vision makes this stand out from the current noise crowd and feel more like a work of sound art from another era. There is still plenty of blown out scuzz, but it's paced and spaced in a mode totally unique to itself. Confusing in a delightful fashion. Presented in a numbered edition of 50 hand stamped 3" cdrs. SOLD OUT
