date of release: 05.05.2009
format: cdr
copies: 30
info: Crystal Plumage are the duo of Benjamin Laurent Aman on guitars & electronics
and Sean Fergus Barrett on electronics & oscillators. They are from Berlin by way of Los Angeles, and make some amazing electroacoustic music. This release is a single 30+ minute track that treads somewhere between minimal drone and musique concrète. A recording such as this has as much to do with Dylan Carson as it does John Cage.

date of release: 05.05.2009
format: cdr
copies: 50
Info: Sonic Suicide Squad are Vinnie Paternostro on Tenor Sax, Sam Lohman on Drums, and Jon Simler doing Live Acoustic Manipulations.

These guys just got back from tour with Acid Mothers Temple, so you better grab this while you can.
