UPDATES
[ WINTER 2010 ] A handful of limited-edition-one-time-only-signed-in-blood-hand-numbered releases are upcoming in the not too distant future. I may self-release one or two of these but hoping to have others printing & distributing on my behalf. Forthcoming releases include...
...the long-awaited Apocraphonia on France's Tavarn Keben, sounds from the eminence of eskaton, featuring a guest appearance from the now defunct Dr. Jones... Ecovitus, a cassette of field-recording driven dronology... Totemic Invocation, a ritual doom cassette "versus" ex-Dr. Jones front-man James Nielsen... self-releasing Scientists vs. Animals (aka Big Scientists vs. Paintings for Animals) Sea of Ink, a 3" CDr of pure, smuv feedback drontone... the original 41 CDr release of Sleep's Keeper ov thee Sea is pretty much gone, so looking for proper printing & distrubtion of this 5 song cycle of darkened Cascadian poetry... plus New Red Sun's The Book of Sand & Moss CDr on Albuquerque, NM's Featherspines... and later our recently recorded Jeremy Harris Spoke of Summoning the Deep Magic...
Looking like 2010 will be a busy year with releases & shows set up for the first half of the year, including Cumulus Music Festival, the first Olympia Noise Fest, the Olympia Experimental Music Festival & The Stone in New York. Not to mention the Seattle Occultural Music Festival is well on it's way to being settled, both venues & dates set, May 12th through 15th (4 days/5 shows). Most of the performers are also confirmed, so contact me if you want to be involved, there is a space or two left.
