Artist: LANDING
Title: Gravitational IV
Label: EQUATION RECORDS
Format: LP
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: E=MC 012LP
"450 copies only.180 gram virgin vinyl LP in a heavy 350 gram gatefold sleeve. Up until now, Gravitational IV has been known as Landing's 'lost' album. Mostly recorded during the sessions that led to 2004's Sphere (K Records), Gravitational IV is a varied and multi-textured album. Sound experiments, free flowing drone freakouts, and softly lilting lullabies make up what may be the most accomplished and interesting release of Landing's 8-year career. This is music to stay indoors with. This is vessyl music."


Artist: BAKER, AIDAN
Title: Gathering Blue
Label: EQUATION RECORDS
Format: 2LP
Price: $27.00
Catalog #: E=MC 017LP
On blue-colored vinyl. "A work of blissful delight. Aidan Baker provides four sides of enchantment in this long-in-the-making 2LP set. Gathering Blue provides new original material plus a stunning cover of the Joy Division track '24 Hours' as well as an extended work-out of the amazing remix of 'The Cicada Sings Our Love Song' by Building Castles Out Of Matchsticks, which was originally released in 2005 on the ultra-limited and long-deleted Arcolepsy Records CD Remixes. This really is Aidan Baker at his very best and a record that is sure to charm. Comes in a gatefold sleeve, numbered card insert and pressed on heavy 180g virgin vinyl."


Artist: APSE
Title: Eras
Label: EQUATION RECORDS
Format: LP
Price: $19.00
Catalog #: E=MC 019LP
"All Tomorrow's Parties recording artists Apse have produced an unofficial follow up to their critically-acclaimed debut album Spirit (Acuarela 2006 / All Tomorrow's Parties 2008). A work recorded and produced entirely at home between the months of January and August 2007, Equation Records proudly presents Eras -- an exclusively vinyl-only release limited to 425 copies. While maintaining common threads with its predecessor, Eras is a highly sophisticated, wildly versatile and strikingly mysterious affair -- delving much deeper into the genre-splicing and marching-to-the-beat-of-its-own drum that the band has always been revered for. Each listen encourages a deeper investigation as the album embodies a comprehensive selection of multi-faceted material culled from a larger body of work -- blended into a record that can truthfully merit the commonly misplaced maxim: 'a genre all its own'. As the band prepares its official follow-up to Spirit, Eras functions as the fabric between the two. Finished in August of 2007 and set on the shelf for 18 months, Eras is an artifact all its own. The record is pressed on 180 gram virgin vinyl, and comes in beautiful packaging including a heavy-gauge card gatefold sleeve, printed inner sleeve with lyrics and artwork, and a charming hand-numbered card insert."


Artist: R.Y.N.
Title: Archaic Techniques Of Ecstacy
Label: EQUATION RECORDS
Format: LP
Price: $24.00
Catalog #: E=MC 020LP
"R.Y.N. are a UK-based duo probably best known for their Astral Death CD (Unrest Productions) and an excellent 7" on Drone Records. On this vinyl-only release R.Y.N. present 44 minutes of completely new recordings: a mix of archaic, unsettling, new and melancholy. This album took many months to record due to the care and attention to detail exacted by the duo. This LP provides both classic R.Y.N. darkness plus even heavier oppressive, dark soundscapes that can only be fully appreciated on vinyl over the two side-long tracks: 'Archaic Techniques Of Ecstacy' and 'Provisional Sketch Of The Mind.' Pressed on virgin 180 gram black vinyl and housed in a deluxe silkscreened card sleeve (by Seizure Palace) plus a printed inner sleeve and inserts. If you don't know their work, then this is definitely worth exploring. If you do know them, then this is a must. The driving motive behind R.Y.N. was to manipulate sounds beyond any trace of recognition, often using heavily processed guitar/bass. Creating an environment or atmosphere via sonic texture puts R.Y.N. closer to the avant garde of ambient music. This newest LP for Equation was created during the Summer of 2008 and was built solely from processed field recordings. This has lent a darker, more disturbed edge, to the group's sound... if that was at all possible." Limited edition of 233 numbered copies.


Artist: PEPE WISMEER
Title: Musi
Label: EQUATION RECORDS
Format: LP
Price: $23.00
Catalog #: E=MC 026LP
"This is a 1-off pressing of 100 copies only - each numbered (in various places). Musi features 6 tracks selected by the band from their past 11 years that forms a coherent and continuous work. While this is not a 'Best of...', it does provide an excellent introduction to the band for those not already familiar with them. Pepe Wismeer have a pretty extensive discography with a vinyl LP, CD, a remix LP and numerous CD-Rs to their name. While drawing comparisons with other artists is always difficult - and often misleading - their warm, mature and fluid musical style and melancholic visions may remind some of Coil, Current 93 and others. Their work is structured around piano and voice accompanied by electric/acoustic guitar, 5-string bass, concrete sounds, samples, oud, sitar, metallophone ... and maybe some sheep & birds & water & glass. All music recorded on analogue equipment to add warmth and handcraft to the icy atmospheres." Each copy comes with an 8-page stapled booklet + insert.
