Two Octopuses Pulling Apart A Piece Of Bubble Gum With Ants In It - "T.O.P.A.A.P.O.B.W.A.I.I." CD

... an aural response to the inkblot forms which emerge from underneath pressed eyelids...A sonic rorschach test with right and wrong answers. Nervous feedback, aqueous textures synthesized alongside curious melodies, restlessly evolving rhythmic structures forge perplexing explanations from nebulous explosions of color on an otherwise blank page. Take your medication.

I.N.R.I. / E.Q.R.F. - "as you start not working with deaths..." CD

I.N.R.I (It's Not Really Important) and E.Q.R.F (Earthquake Retrofit) hail from Eugene, Oregon. Their collaborative album "as you start not working with deaths..." brilliantly meshes I.N.R.I.'s hypnotic analog glitch with the digital alchemy of E.Q.R.F., evoking uneasiness and psychic disturbance. Guitar drone trancendance coagulates with tape and turntable based automisms; giving rise to new forms.
