   About ANAKRID
Discography:

Countless cassette-only and CDR only demo releases between 1989 and 2003 which were generally only given to close friends. Some had titles/covers and were "released" in limited editions, but I'm afraid I've kept no records nor copies -- so your guess is as good as mine. Wish I still had a copy of 1989's "Anakrid Aural Presentation". I bet it would be good for a laugh.

"Reality is Elitist and Other Smashist Sound Manifestoes" (stereonucleosis) CD - 1st "official" release put out by a grant from the Arts Commission. I still consider this a "demo" release, but it was the first Anakrid available to the public at large.

"Father" LP (stereonucleosis) hand numbered, limited to 350 copies

"Rapture of the Deep" LP (stereonucleosis) hand numbered, limited to 350 copies

"Live July 4th" cassette (Black Horizons). C31. Limited to 80 copies. SOLD OUT

BH-28 Anakrid - Ceaselessly out of a Cloudless Sky C31 $8.00

The third and final tape for Anakrid on Black Horizons. As per Mr. Bickel's usual unexpected style, expect to be surprised. The a-side is what I would come to expect from this project, an impressively composed piece of deep analogue dark ambiance, while the flip is a bit of a change up, where this project's often latent violent underpinning is fully exposed in a 15 minute piece entitled acidpianoharp, consisting of a harsh acoustic assault on the ears, thousands of tiny sounds strung together to form a swarm. Packaged in the Anakrid for BH tape style, consisting of a color transparency layered on top of various marbled pieces of paper. This time with the addition of a vertical transparent floating OBI, all held in place with rivets. Edition of 100 copies on BLACK hi bias chrome tapes. Silver labels with the Black Horizons color touch.

Will be updated shortly with real pics, but trust me, this tape looks really nice.

Order this and the Teeth Collection tape for $14. Shipping will begin next week.

I have the following songs: Air Into Water, The Stumphole nights, Trio For Piano, Saxophone, and Cello, and Wilt. There is no album name. I believe it was put on my computation machine by a friend of mine with whom I share music. He may have gotten it from boxerrecords.net. It is exercise for my ears. I must obtain more.
;i!





Apr 25 2009 4:50 AM

I recently made mix cds to represent all the primary colors (and black). I chose songs that portrayed the emotions I associate with each color. The opening song to black was "Wilt", by Anakrid. Black is the sound of one's soul being sucked away, destitution, despair, madness ...my favorite to listen to after my nightly grind at a factory. I love your music. I'd have to say though, I'm feeling intervals of yellow and blue more these days... together, a consistent gray.

Its time to get blended again! And do I have a mix for you! What do you get when you mix the classic swooners of yesterday and add modern beats behind it? You get The Futuristic Clash of Christmas! Stop in take a listen, let me know what you think. Thank you!

The insert is 8x8, two sided, laser printed on Gilbert Bond Paper from the 1960's, with watermarks visible for most copies.
