GGC 001EP

Seth Price's suite Coinos Driftos announces itself with the sound of a rolling coin -- a punctuation that repeats throughout the record -- before dropping the listener into a storm of harsh winds and far-away bells. When the storm abates, listeners find themselves in a desolate field of stuttering electric harp and electronic sub-bass. Side B emerges from a mist of gentle tones that soon give way to a juddering contraption of dropped coins and clacking noises, which itself seems to summon the arrival of a war machine -- a glorious squall of high tones, bristling with Helmholtz inner-ear sensations, all just barely kept in line by a loping, irregular bassline -- that resolves into a final, more personal, piece of field recording. Seth Price made the music in 2023 by improvising three straight-through takes on Arp synthesizer, bells, and electric Nagoya harp, often playing two instruments at once, with all signals routed through pedals and processors; these tracks were sequenced before the addition of overdubbed bass guitar and field recordings. Mastering by Giuseppe Ielasi. Clear vinyl with no labels. Silkscreen print on transparent PE sleeve. Signed. Released on the occasion of Seth Price: Before and After Writing at Zweigstelle Capitain V, C.A.S.A. -- Palazzo Degas, Napoli, Italy, March 23 -May 04, 2024.

"For the unaware, Seth Price is an conceptual visual artist who lives and works in New York, considered by most to be one of the most interesting and thought-provoking artists to currently be at work. His sculpture, video and painting has been exhibited internationally at venues including the Tate London and the Museum of Modern Art, while gracing the cover of Art Forum last year, as well as countless other publications. Price has been working in sound and music for a number of years; though most recordings were controlled under hyper-limited releases through select galleries worldwide. This special reissue LP release gathers and remasters tracks recorded between 2000 and 2002 and originally released on a limited edition CD through the Reena Spaulings Art Gallery, collected under the title of Army Jacket. This limited reissue LP contains an exclusive edit and remaster of his seminal avant-pop masterpiece by Seth Price featuring new, exclusive artwork by Price. Limited to 500 copies." Includes a printed innersleeve with download card; hand-numbered limited edition of 500 copies... Dais can do no wrong.
