re-processing. sublimation. minimal tones. trance states. objects of intense, uncanny interest. seething patience.
 
now:
austere cd (monorail)
five years in the making, and the first duo recordings -- a very, very calculated and controlled effort which is to be heard as one long piece, each track being parts of the whole. moving past the harsh noise cut-ups but not eschewing them entirely; rather, moving forward to areas of sound collage, music-concrete, field recording and electroacoustic, every sound strategically placed in the narrative. the progression continues. 1000 copies, full color pro-printed covers, shrink-wrapped in jewel case.
fatale cd (hanson records / hospital productions)
jon borges made his live debut at age 14 at canada's 1999 no music festival curated by the nihilist spasm band. he has a control and focus that most in the underground noise community lack. can sooth and destroy you with washes of white noise, intensely edited cut up abrasive electronics and junk sound and completely depress you with passages of truly dismal piano, tape manipulations and drones. this is his second mass produced full length CD and it's about FUCKING TIME!!
later:
east fork / north fork c-26 (housecraft)
