Left-field, avant-garde electronics, electro-acoustics, tapes, voice and guitar. Smeared over a lathe in two direct statements, a CDr of self-solos and attempts at self+higher-self collaborations, and optionally, a 16-minute tape representing true actualization. A vessel for vibrations which all point to the same invisible Source Field/conscious matrix of reality, and the secret to life, love and existence.~ Limited to 30 copies. (14 lathe+CDr, 16 lathe+CDr+tape)
~ Lathe & CDr will be in a thick plastic sleeve. The CDr itself will be in it's own protective envelope inside the sleeve. Full color, digitally-made artwork on the lathes. Inserts: xeroxed collage/mixed media art on colored card-stock. Additional xerox prints and unique found pieces also included.
~ The sound quality does not decrease on these lathes over time any more than a record will contrary to other lathes you may have. These are not flexi. In fact, they are pretty thick. These are super high-quality cuts and will play on any record player.
~ Production for this project is roughly 13 weeks. This is mainly due to the fact that the lathes that are cut in real-time with expensive vintage equipment that requires regular maintenance. It is a small DIY operation of the best quality. I've chosen my lathe provider carefully, and the wait times are as long as they are because a lot of other people have chosen just as carefully. I will keep in contact with you with updates so that you are not kept in the dark about your pre-order. Doing a pre-order is the only way funding is possible at this time.
