Found Objects: Dream Recall Exercise with Coil

Found Objects: Dream Recall Exercise with Coil: From 'A Coil Magazine' , 1987

Casual Violence - Ab intra - Geometrika FM / Scrapyard podcast 001

So Im back from this party for Geometrika FM and Scrapyard @ Specka in Madrid, and a great time was had. Just before I travelled over for said booking I was asked to record a new mix/podcast for Geometrika FM / Scrapyard in honour of the (then) forthcoming party. The mix contains a fair combination of techno, IDM, Industrial and rhythmic noise music. As ever, I do hope it finds you well ...

Devastating!
Thanks DrenCrome

Boards of Canada Mix

Uploaded by +dB on SoundCloud, this is one of a few cassette-only compilation releases by (allegedly) Boards Of Canada given to friends, featuring early studio demos, oddities, and ideas (such as the fourth track “Trapped” sounds like a vocal mash-up from a club R’n’B song with their instrumentation style).

Over two years in the making, Pawleys Island could be considered the quintessential Coppice Halifax album. Started in 2008, and built via a year-long sifting process which was the Analog Botany series in 2009, Pawleys is a potent double-album that collects everything about a specific time and place and bottles it up in stylish colorful glass jars. Conceptualized as a representation of Brian's experiences in and around the actual Pawleys Island, a marshy coastal location just outside of Myrtle Beach, where Brian grew up, these recordings are a wistful kind of sad nostalgia for good times and bad times too. Building sandcastles as a child, going on school field trips to learn about marsh wildlife, partying with friends as a teen. Poolhopping, playing shows, pancake houses, warped cassettes in the car stereo, romance, hurricanes, shitty jobs, driving 40 minutes one-way to get back home, alone, at 3 AM, doing 60 through lampless country roads, mildly stoned, deep inside SAW 85-92, Cosmic Thing and "Kid For Today", zooming from the coastline to the country. Pawleys Island is the summation of all of these things, and more...musically it could be considered an apex of Brian's work within the dub techno template, but with lots of additional influences and flavors mixed in as well. Pawleys Island is an album about the bliss you find in missing things, and the comfort in being sad.
