SMALL CRUEL PARTY - Islands of Sleep

Format: CD Label & Cat.Number: Ferns Recordings stem_03 Release Year: 2018 Note: re-issue of the first LP from 1998 - a great example of SCP's "micro-morphing" object sounds, frictional acoustics from stones, wood, metal, glass, etc. are combined with subtle drones... "Concrete music based on glass, wood and water manipulation : rubbing, tinkling, lisping, resonance, sharp & bass tones confrontation. Raw calm"; edition of 300 copies Price (incl. 19% VAT): €12.00 More Info "Verpackt in ein großformtagiges S/W-Geäst – Cover kommt die erste SCP-LP daher. Die Aufnahmen entstanden in Paris im Juni 1997. Concrete music based on glass, wood and water manipulation: rubbing, tinkling, lisping, resonance, sharp & bass tones confrontation. Raw calm. Das ganze auf 250gr vinyl und lim. auf 365copies. V.a. die A-Seite,die eigentlich auf 45 rpm läuft, ist sehr schön, und kann auch auf 33 rpm in Entzücken versetzen." [Drone Rec. info zum LP release 1998] "SCP makes astonishingly hermetic electro-acoustic brain-melters that resist being easily described. This is no exception. There are (thankfully) no simple emotional signifiers or familiar genre-exercise moves to help you along. For active listening. Favorite track: ...Cette Haine Dirigée Contre Lui Mordait Son Marbre Et Sculptait Sa Beauté.. " [Howard Stelzer on Bandcamp]
