Last month saw the long-awaited release of some early recordings of mine on the UK label Reverb Worship. These were recorded on 4-track under extremely lo-fi conditions in the late 1990s and cassettes were given to a few friends. Now available in a limited edition on cd-r, it includes color cover artwork and matching label art, and can be purchased directly from the label through their
website (they accept orders via email, see below) or on
eBay. I hope to get myself together technologically in the next few days to post a track or two as listen-only selections on
Bandcamp. At the moment I just have some tracks from my experimental project, White Gloves & Party Manners, up there, but check back and before long I should have more...
From the Reverb Worship site:
"Over
the course of time, it occurred to me that one of the artists who I
really liked a lot, and I wanted to release some music by was Sarada.She
has provided some rather lovely vocals to music from a variety of
Timothy Renner's musical projects (Stone Breath , Breath Stone and Crow
Tongue) plus her own music too.She is also a superb artist and
illustrator. Having done a fair amount of "backtracking and musical
digging" (more on this subject later on in the year), I eventually
asked Sarada if she would be consider doing some music with me.I am
delighted to say that she agreed.When the master arrived through my
letterbox I was very pleased indeed. Sarada has sent me one of her
earliest solo recordings which only appeared on a self released cassette
which only got handed out to a small amount of family and close
friends.The music on this cassette contains eight wonderful tracks which
were recorded by Sarada in the corner of her living room in four track
in 1998-1999.What we have here is a real slice of hazy psychedelic
wyrdfolk of the very highest quality.It sounds like one of those "lost"
recordings that could have been created anytime in the last thirty years
or so, and people "get all freaky" about.To compliment the music
Sarada has allowed me to use one of her paintings for the cover
design.As a added bonus Sarada has also done a drawing for the cd label.
This
cd is available now in a hand numbered edition of 50 copies with
artwork printed onto 160gsm bright white card.This cd comes with my very
highest recommendation.
UK = £7.00
Europe = £9.00
USA = £10.00
