<span style="font-size: large;">Release Date: 05/16/2019<br /><br />Exquisite
manipulated and arranged field recordings from Myste & Phil French,
the duo behind the legacy avant-garde cassette label STUNNED RECORDS.
Their first new work since 2012, "Landcestors" bears light from time
spent in mineral, fungal, plant, and animal kingdoms. Evidence of
direct contact with the land and that which animates it, it's "good
news." - Sun Ark Records<br /><span title="Edited"> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Nite Lite</b> – <i>Megrez </i>12″ Vinyl LP (<a href="http://www.desirepathrecordings.com/releases/nite-lite-megrez/">Desire Path Recordings</a>)
</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"A topiary of organic sound. Topos, place. And the ambient surrounds us. The topic: to pick up sounds in your old kit bag for survival; to keep the world alive by clipping and trimming, sculpting shapes out of its sounds. If we can sculpt sound, then we can type on clouds. Clouds are perfect typewriters, the opposite of skin.
Sound is organic even when it’s the artificial reproduction of cricket music. Even in field recordings, when we are recording in the field, the field is also recording us, reminding us that we breathe in its microambience. How else could we copy infinity? Sounds assembled to resemble nothing like the world that comes from where they came from. There are webs and we below know they will always be unmappable mazes.
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This music exists somewhere between sci-fi soundtrack and being inside a music box. It’s an aquatic, underwater sound as if the ocean were a seashell (who could lift it?) and through it we could hear the murmurs of invisible whales using sonar to mirror the deeps from our own aquariums. Nite Lite makes us feel safe enough to experience how any night can be a jungle of the possible, and that the experience of listening is a kind of migration from solar to sonar sonata."

So here’s one final tape before Stunned is out the door for good. We’re thrilled to have been unexpectedly given a chance to produce this years-in-the-making split between Portland brothers Plankton Wat and Super Minerals. Side A commences with four season-inspired songs by Plankton Wat that calm the tides of the mind and prepares a scene of tranquil Pangea. Nectar flavored spirals of guitar, flute, percussion, and banjo drip forth as dusk falls, and nocturnal creatures gather to listen from the edges of Dewey Mahood’s glowing camp. Side B finds M. Geddes Gengras & Caitlin C. Mitchell doubling Super Minerals’ size and sound, joining in deep Green Machines Studio icaros-weaving. Winds, guitar, and drums twist into thick vines, fueled by mighty herbal allies and Third-Ear harmonics which plunge the band toward a blazing red dawn. Final edition of 111 pro-dubbed & imprinted c40 tapes with double-sided jcard and insert.<br /></span><span style="font-size:130%;">_______________________<br />reviews:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">— <a href="http://cassettes.kzsu.fm/2011/11/plankton-wat-super-minerals-split.html">KZSU Cassettes</a><br /></span><span style="font-size:180%;">— <a href="http://weedtemple.blogspot.com/2011/12/review-plankton-wat-super-minerals.html">Weed Temple</a></span><br /><span style="font-size:180%;">— <a href="http://www.tinymixtapes.com/cerberus/plankton-wat-super-minerals-split">Tiny Mix Tapes</a><br /></span><span style="font-size:180%;">— <a href="http://criticalmassesmedia.com/2012/03/crate-digging-plankton-wat-super-minerals-plankton-wat-super-minerals-split-c40/">Critical Masses</a></span>STUNNED RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18057887805141052611noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195831774522793700.post-59776690917388229372011-08-29T16:20:00.000-07:002012-01-16T10:00:20.740-08:00Stunned no. 136<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir6Xu4nwGzfxcFgmaIq2d4HYZEDzAAisP_CE-Jger08wCtHWC0R0Yy2bgPJwx2Ax8o60we4KL4_qu7f_kux493ef4oMEFuDPWRGA-bg3lx8g5nNcwwDysua9klC_O0Fo2pxXaCUWHse_6A/s1600/136+Warm+Climate.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 237px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir6Xu4nwGzfxcFgmaIq2d4HYZEDzAAisP_CE-Jger08wCtHWC0R0Yy2bgPJwx2Ax8o60we4KL4_qu7f_kux493ef4oMEFuDPWRGA-bg3lx8g5nNcwwDysua9klC_O0Fo2pxXaCUWHse_6A/s400/136+Warm+Climate.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633487019526923298" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Warm Climate</span> — <span style="font-style: italic;">Pigeon Brides Weigh In</span> c39 (Stunned no. 136)</span> <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-size:180%;">—out of stock</span><span style="font-size:180%;">—</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">With Cailtin on drums, Jake on bass, and Seth on guitar, the incomparable Warm Climate takes aim at the center of the target and shoots yet another bullseye of jawdropping outsider-rock. Sounding like nothing that’s come before them, this tightly-rehearsed L.A. group fires one psych groove & infectious hook after another. In a parallel reality where the music industry isn’t steered by tasteless major label trends, Warm Climate would be ringing out on all worldwide hi-fi’s the liberated rush that comes from their marriage of songwriting genius with a gutsy combo of seasoned rockers. As our label’s last cassette release, ‘Pigeon Brides Weigh In’ is firmly perched at Stunned’s summit, a pinnacle experience of music at the end of a trail that can be climbed no higher.

In your hands is ‘The Empty Space’ and pouring into your head is Stunned’s most trusted synthesizer medicine man M. Geddes Gengras. This is an album dealing with freefall, the ground suddenly dropping out, the fierce void we rush against that resists our naturally preferred trajectory. The cycles and patterns appear to dominate — yet MGG boldly transcends such conditions with his fearless navigation through an unpredictable modular synth patchwork, taking a plunge into analogue novelty in its most naked state.

A tribeswoman from the black time of innocence discovers interdimensional gates within Nature. The sounds of forest animals, machines, and people mingle with subtler sounds welling up from the earth’s very core. All vibrations become indiscriminately suspended in her ear, their energies funneled from hidden brain glands into the alchemical chamber of her heart. It is from this activated place of love that ‘Marlene’ is captured, held for a while, then released back into the wild again. Keep your nite lite burning.

It’s no secret that many masters of their craft eventually return to the piano, seeking its raw tactility as a fundamental starting point for new articulations. Pimmon takes this approach here on his second essential release on Stunned Records, and the results are invigorating. Samples from the ivory keys glide beautifully within a patient matrix of laptop manipulations, a technique that draws cosmic gestures from humble origins. A national treasure not only to his homeland of Australia but to all of us around the globe, Pimmon is paired best with a relaxing and carefree listening environment, going down like the finest of red wines.

In the hands of this frequency surgeon we are provided a reboot and awaken fresh to what has made the last decades of experimental music worthwhile in the first place — starting with the artist’s scandalizing and unapologetic plunder far beyond all safety zones erected by society. Opening his aperture into this lawless place of awesome possibility, Social Drag directs red hot mutagenic forces through writhing cables and circuits fried to crispy perfection.

While his “Troika” (Stunned no. 115) ushered in longform pieces of crackling scuzz, the opening side of this split with Granitkorridor reveals Parashi isn’t treading the same ground for long. Listeners behold six distinct scenes that evoke images of malevolent applications of nanotech, wastelands glowing green with radiation, and lab-weaponized parasites slithering their way into flesh. None of these perceived traumas seem to daunt Parashi, however, as he brings the magical powers of a sonic warrior to the fore of his side’s entirety. Germany’s most somber string-puller Granitkorridor knows a thing or two about a warrior’s skills, having spent a half dozen releases now exploring cavernous realms that few else dare to entreat. His time here is split evenly between two huge pieces of pure bass guitar blackout. Amazingly spacious, it possesses everything that has made Granitkorridor’s previous cassettes so repeatable and essential in our psychedelic music collection.

Ageless ways of rock, blues, and folk fluidly channel through this incredibly promising musician from Los Angeles, and “The Present Tense” is his unforgettable calling card.

Ever since starting in an obscure corner of France five years ago, this musician has become increasingly recognized as the go-to guy for Drone’s most delicious tones. What a difference half a decade makes. Now with multiple rhythm-based projects in full force and a world tour under his belt, the mysterious man behind Enfer Boreal is declaring “Drone Is Dead” — at least for himself. On the way out the door he delivers this brief and potent eulogy with style. Defiant metallic scrapes and trippy bell clatter occupies the disc’s first half, admirably staving off a totally-inevitable, yet totally-appropriate One Last Uber-drone. Adieu indeed.

Suss opens his side with dulcet synth swells that evoke a placid sea evaporating into neon gas. Rather than rushing on from his carefully crafted scene, Millions engages each unfolding second with a composer’s patient and subtle touch. Much the same can be said for Mike Haley’s new synthesizer-based project Spectrum Tickets, who follows up his own awesome 905 Tapes label debut with ‘Space–Time’. Laden with crisp arpeggio runs and mega hypnotic pan & fade technique, this is an example of the entrancing – and dare we say melodic – realm Haley enters with Spectrum Tickets in hand.

However, with the collaborative efforts of these two Stunned-alumni as Voder Deth Squad something like a royal banquet is set before the listener. Twin flames of synthesizer shoot through the solar system and back on this VDS debut, every savory minute securely in the hands of these premier moog & modular synth adepts. At times thrillingly full-throttle, and at other times incredibly nuanced and sensitive, this is one that simply has to be heard to be believed.

He’s ingested genetically-modified everything, and he’s been living under the gift of nuclear power since birth. For AMS, the jig is finally up and the coast is clear. He stuck around when they sent in the Good Cop to work us over (Stunned no. 27). But before they send in the Bad Cop, he knows its time to post bail and bounce the hell out. Keep in mind that no matter where and no matter when, assume A.M. Shiner to be in contempt of court — with permission granted to regard him as hostile.

<br /><span style="font-size:130%;">We became aware of Stewart Adams’ project Ugly Husbands in 2009 when we received his debut cassette which was released by Roll Over Rover inside a hollowed out vintage book. It was definitely a novel first impression, and the packaging along with the jams inside was a highlight of that year in music. Fast forward to the present, and we find that while Adams has refined his sound, the Husbands’ ethos remains intact. Using his 4-track recorder as a conduit for the unhurried sounds of western America, Ugly Husbands includes all manner of rusty slide guitar, warbling old tape loops, and hazy sunset reverberation. It’s a vibe worth many repeat visits, but not before first traversing the strange lands of Gul Bara. Here we find two familiar members of the Stunned family: Warm Climate’s very own Seth Kasselman & Caitlin C. Mitchell. Gul Bara is essentially an off-hours WC, cigarettes lit on the midnight prowl with dented horns and blackened drums. A true inversion of band dynamics, the duo takes passage through five dank alleys in their own unexpected and mesmerizing way. More evidence that whether it’s disorienting drones or tight rock tunes, the members of Gul Bara ceaselessly push any and all limits aside.

Whether it was unpredictable fate, good karma, or sheer serendipity we don’t know — somehow this crew connected with Stunned Records and shared with us the best unsolicited demo the label has received in three years of operation. Colin’s nimble songwriting turns a dozen numbers into absolute gemstones in the hands of his ensemble who represent themselves on 24 different instruments. Take everything that’s been effective, uncompromised, and lasting about rock & pop music of the past and present. It’ll be found in spades here, and with its own distinctly unique Remote Islands twist.

It’s clear “The White Paper” is an unmistakable hybrid of the MABH laboratory — fertile with unexpected turns and undeniably scintillating to the core.

On this split edition with NY synth sons Afterlife, Kann drops some of his most dynamic work yet, which is saying something significant for those aware of past Inhibitionists output. Sequestering every variety of bent and dented tone, this Side A is forward-propulsive antics of the highest order. Schizoid algorithms are interrupted by free-clatter & string passages, deftly bouncing back to form and repeating similar manic cycles a few more times before passing the torch to Afterlife. Within seconds of the handoff, Ryan McGill and Franklin Teagle are snapped to breathless attention, their circuitry poised for astral action. Never failing to astonish with their proprietary flavor of team-synthesizer, the side they offer here can be considered the essential post-script to their recent Stunned cassette (no. 116). Darker in shade and even foreboding at moments, this piece suggests the colored showers of “Hypnautic Rinse” can also be converted to temporary cloudcover. For this reason and many more we turn a closer listen to these skilled musicians of the nebulous realm.

From the hush of a winter’s midnight, Inez Lightfoot opens this hour-long ceremony evoking animal powers and seasonal forces of nature. Presiding with the intimacy and strength of a curandera, Inez synchronizes the flow of analog electricity with raw expressions of blood & breath. Captivating as the light of a full moon, this is beautiful hyp-gnosis at an earthen altar. French/Belgian artist Felicia Atkinson echoes these sentiments on the following side with her own brand of mysterious music generation. Performing as Je Suis le Petit Chevalier, Felicia unites the energy of synthesizer with her voice into a brew of humid atmospherics. Every sung line and keyboard pulse is like a pebble dropped onto the still surface of a pond, leaving behind distinct after-impressions yet always giving way to the next entrancing note. Limited edition of 111 pro-dubbed & imprinted c60 tapes w/ double-sided jcard and insert.<br /></span><span style="font-size: 130%;">_______________________<br />review:<br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:180%;">— <a href="http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/43964/Inez-Lightfoot-Split-w--Je-Suis-le-Petit-Chevalier/">Sputnik Music</a></span>STUNNED RECORDShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18057887805141052611noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9195831774522793700.post-27791891964887784602011-05-05T00:12:00.000-07:002012-02-07T09:16:37.108-08:00Stunned no. 118<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPzzVyZZPvYRcqehDHO106vFN8a9y1mu6oH6Rfa4GjckQE12VAPoORZLCk1Hz61zkT5vfChwL_msgFCMtUfbtLzQOxah5SpzUktpj0XSqpI0CVILoB1C16TL7nPgVUsjFqS9dE7ilD90TA/s1600/118+High+aura%25E2%2580%2599d++Andr%25C3%25A9+Foisy.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 256px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPzzVyZZPvYRcqehDHO106vFN8a9y1mu6oH6Rfa4GjckQE12VAPoORZLCk1Hz61zkT5vfChwL_msgFCMtUfbtLzQOxah5SpzUktpj0XSqpI0CVILoB1C16TL7nPgVUsjFqS9dE7ilD90TA/s400/118+High+aura%25E2%2580%2599d++Andr%25C3%25A9+Foisy.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601464167097149394" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">High aura’d / André Foisy</span> — c45 (Stunned no. 118)</span> <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-size:180%;">—out of stock</span><span style="font-size:180%;">—</span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">John Kolodij is the one-man powerhouse known as High aura’d, and lately he’s been gaining a much earned reputation for his six-string style and masterful sense of both studio & live composition. Cutting his teeth last year with an excellent Reverb Worship debut as well as accompanying Barn Owl on their 2010 tour, High aura’d beckons us yet again to journey the guitar-guided serpentine path. Entitled “Dusk Latitudes,” this side is a three-part display of the impressive range High aura’d takes his craft on levels of both amplified frequency and pure human feeling. The wonder and awe conjured here will be necessary anchor-points upon entering André Foisy’s spooked arena of souls on Side B. This member of esteemed Chicago group Locrian presents a grim monolith sculpted by his mighty guitar and dystopic groans. Not a trip for the weak of heart, Foisy invites all courageous initiates into an unforgettable labyrinth where quite anything can happen.

Geddes Gengras’ newest cassette, but nothing can prepare you for the irresistibly lush world that awaits you on the other side of such a simple action. ‘This Could Be the Last Time’ features star-guided tones of gold, silver, and crystal orbiting each other in pure moog magnetism – startling proof of MGG’s commitment to draw listeners to ever-higher elevations of body and mind. A fascinating stage of this maestro’s unfolding synthesizer odyssey.

Relax. It’s the Afterlife kicking in. Though familiar to many of us, this particular strain produced by the Teagle/McGill duo is a most potent dose. Patiently drawing us far from the shoreline for its first few minutes, soon we are enveloped in a powerful scalar field where beautiful synth alchemy is being conducted. Everything is jettisoned except for the most medicinal bits, concentrated here in this essential half-hour of analog bliss.
