Jeff Rehnlund Our Thin Mercy Of Error cdr
Field recordings, cut-ups, sounds both performed and chosen, woven together with cassette atmospheres. Collages assembled from snips and tapes acquired in and between New York and North Carolina, anonymous North Atlantic locations, and places invariably left off the maps: deathbeds, sinking ships, angles of wind, childhood hallucinations, rooftops, media signals, and your bedroom. A personal, rough hewn work of beauty. Edition of 134. - - -
[hymn 18]
Ironing A Day At The Beach cdr

[hymn 9]
Bigga Baphomet Blasphemous Assmittens cdr
Dark, brooding ambience vs. heavy, droning carnage at play in a decaying cosmos, with a splash of satanik catharsis thrown in for good measure. The sound of the last moment of your life being pitch shifted down. And down. And down. - - -
[hymn 6]
Ironing vs. Bigga Baphomet Ultimate Sound Clatter cdr
Mike Colby (aka Bigga Baphomet) has spent the majority of his life building sounds in one fine form after another. He's just as talented at disassembling them and playing in their remains. 60+ minutes of aural mud-flinging and synthesis between old friends. Tapes, microcassettes, and records meet laptop sound deconstruction amongst dub influence, recorded live in the studio. - - -
   
[hymn 5]
DJ Goddamn Never Mind the Static... This is Miami! cdr
The dense Miami radio airwaves get worshipped and destroyed with the help of a boombox and some deft fingers. There's a lot of variety down there, from guilty pleasure radio jamz to a variety of latin music and reggae, new and old. Listen to it all get cut up, smushed together and scratched with static and each other. If you don't realize how great this is, I daresay you're not listening closely enough. There are four different covers for this that join to form a big puzzle collage. $1.50 extra if you want the other 3 covers. - - -
[hymn 3]
Ironing Grow My Beard Like A Wizard cdr

[hymn 2]
Ironing Let's Fucking Go! cdr
Tape collage/noise w/ a cassette jockeyed hardcore section -- backwards forwards, cut up, with all the good breaks. Microcassettes and regular tapes smushed together with occasional keyboard splatter.

Verses cassette series:
The Verses series focuses on tape manipulation of prerecorded commerical audio cassettes. The audio is recorded to computer, with multiple takes of each side. These takes are mixed together and the final mix is recorded back to the original source tape. Each release in the series is limited to one copy: the original source tape, which now instead contains the manipulated audio. The original j-card has series and artist designation stamped over the original artwork. The cassette shell does not contain any additional markings. As these are limited to a single copy each please email or message to reserve before sending payment.
