Anti-Natural

(Swill Radio) Used LP $10.00

In these “idealized field recordings that capture the hallucinatory isolation of an abandoned arctic base, Anti-Natural combines organic mechanistic processes into an aesthetic whole. Both severe and opulent, naïve and self-confident, it offers an escape route from the false dichotomies of man/nature and man/machine and attempts the transcendence of the impossible. Electronic recreations of the world around us, both real and imagined, foment immutable revolutions in sound.”

The Fourth Dimension Is Money

(Swill Radio) Used 2xLP $28.00 (Out-of-stock)

“Natural sounds, Irish harp, percussion, minimalistic hypnotic free music” is how one Japanese bilbo describes this mid-’90s album by Scout Foust and Carla Borecky. “Spacey jam by electronics, ethereal cries and whistles of birds sound, analog synths…. [C]omfort and oddities are blended exquisitely…. Recommendation panel in the luxury!” With currency pasted-on front cover

The Synthetic Elements

(Crisis of Taste) Used LP $14.00

“Deceptively simple conversations between Karla Borecky’s stately, withering piano phrasing and Scott Foust’s dicey yet assured treatments for synth, radio, guitar and occasionally more discreet sources. An intoxicatingly playful, yet hopeless atmosphere.” From 2016. Numbered edition 282/300
