AMETHYST 016LP
|
Amethyst Sunset is proud to present the absolutely necessary vinyl version of Aaron Dilloway's Songs About Jason. Originally released in limited edition of forty copies for a solo/duo show with Jason Lescalleet in 2013, the audio has been remastered wonderfully by Jason and pressed to vinyl in an edition of 500. Two side long pieces presented by the Hanson Records master of tape loops build from a disorienting melodic wooziness to a darker ambient drone that leave you drowning with an ear splitting destruction in crystal lake. Black vinyl in antique green paper sleeves.

"Coruscating cut-ups yanked still dripping and yowling from the belly of the beast. Dazzling and invigorating, scary and discombobulating. 'Psychic driving was a psychiatric procedure in which patients were subjected to a continuously repeated audio message on a looped tape, in order to alter their behavior... often hundreds of thousands of repetitions of a single statement over the course of their treatment. They were also concurrently administered muscular paralytic drugs such as curare... The psychic driving procedure was a chronological precursor to Cameron's depatterning, involving massive doses of ECT combined with similarly large doses of psychedelic drugs like LSD. The intent was to break down the subject's personality -- theoretically psychic driving could then be used with some efficacy in establishing a new personality' (Hanson Records)." Originally released on cassette by Medusa in 2010.

HN 270LP

"Alternate version of very limited LP (250 copies) on Japanese label Rockatansky. About 50% of this is actually different & reworked material than what is on the Rockatansky LP. This edition is a one time pressing limited to 500 copies. Recorded 2008 / 2013. Mastered for vinyl by Jason Lescalleet." "...an amazing LP, with low-level battlefield tectonics and the sound of smeared and tortured magnetic tape coming over like a rusty, Industrial scale take on classic 20th century minimalism. Some of Dilloway's most barbarously vacated drone work here, with intense low-level fireworks reduced to inchoate shadow plays and rolling, planetary scale hypnotics. Then there are moments of glissing, echoing metal tones coming out of silence, suddenly morphing into sad feedback chorales ala Eliane Radigue's early workings but with a crude, lonely aspect that is extremely affecting. One of Dilloway's most personally expressive tone works with intensely sad feedback drones circling wraiths of clanking magnetic tape." ---David Keenan, Volcanic Tongue
