MARK SOLOTROFF / SSHE RETINA STIMULANTS
Excellent #1 - The Edit
(BloodLust! - B!101) CDR $10.50 (Out-of-stock)
In 1996, NG5361 (also of SIigillum S) and Mark Solotroff (Bloodyminded) collaborated on the Excellent Manipulation of Distorted Tape Death 4xC90, which utilized progressive analog tape generations and sound fidelity decay. NG5361 revisited those recordings ten years later, in a more digital manner, and came up with The Edit (eight tracks, each drawn from one of the original cassette sides) and Super Density Assemblage (two self-explanatory, 28-minute-long tracks, built from multiple sections of the box set).

Souls and Waltzes From the Telegraph Frontier
(Urashima - U004) LP $30.00 (Out-of-stock)
Sshe Retina Stimulants stretches the conceptual and methodological framework of the Remote Aktion (Diophantine 2008) ever further; starting from acoustic guitar as the only source input, environmental feedback effects and real-time manipulation and sampling are applied to booze up the outcome and create a screaming thunderstorm of delighted noise. Dense bubbles inflate and burst like organic super-novas, exploring the forgotten areas of apocalyptic soundscapes. Four long tracks infatuated with repressed anachronisms as tools for liberation. Slow blasts, perpetual wails, soothing and distressed. Silkscreened cardboard sleeve, with insert. Limited edition to 120 copies.
