We are of dark rays,
But we observe with the mystery to imagine
Our angle limits,
Our circle maps,
Shadow Ellipse
total uses of,
Eclipses of Ether,
Ecliptic face of obliquity
Yet its scarcity of phenomena
Nevertheless, to remain
everywhere
,simultaneously
With unexpected astonishment.
(JBW)
One month after the recordings 'we are of dark rays' has been released online by JOINED BY WIRE, a project me (grm) had been following for quite a while with great interest and admiration, the COLDSORE recordings were conducted during xMESS'24. Later on, i invited and we agreed to do split-tape cassette release with our recordings under the same title/concept. Recorded with different means and approaches, but with what i consider to be a suitable atmospheric overlap, we here present 90min of long form guitar based experimental ambient noise and modular drum'n'drone. One side of our tape has been recorded in a span of about a year and the other recorded in one night.
Listen to in the dark, while positioned horizontally to let the dark rays in.

COLDSORE - LOSS
it's getting darker + sadder,
one sinks easier when the heart is heavy,
even when the sea withdraws during low tide. loss/lost.
please, listen to this in the dark. get low, i always lay down for it.

THE SORE BIRDS ARE COLD HERE, by THE SORE BIRDS ARE COLD HERE
6 track album
https://totstellen-grmmsk.bandcamp.com/album/the-sore-birds-are-cold-here
Here's the second release of THE SORE BIRDS ARE COLD HERE with 6 tracks of the same 'sessions' as the previous release (totstellen-grmmsk.bandcamp.com/album/rathill-pt-1). This time with slightly shorter tracks of experimental drone / field-recording assemblages. Recordings of reclaimed spaces, shelters, transitional zones and 'new homes lost'. Swallows nesting in flooded bunkers. City dwelling crows building nests from anti-bird spikes. Wasps building hives inside sheds from material they chew of the outer walls of the same structure. Clusters of material, repurposed, stolen, salvaged, reclaimed, re-assembled. Building another new home from the avalanche of debris pushed around for ages. It is all leaking, no matter how many layers we patch together. Between the construction noise, we even hear some melodies here and there, when the drones become less static and start to move around in the vast container spaces.
We hope you like our sonic explorations, as much as we did.
Keep moving. Find homes. Tear down borders. Give shelter.
white translucent C90 tape in white backed standard case. the tape has a hand stamped sticker and has a blank B-side full of magnetic potential. the cover is a black and white laser print with fragments of a found wasp nest, that was already destroyed glued to it. the standard stock paper has the number of the copy and edition rubber-stamped on it's rear-flap. Limited edition of 34 copies.
Released by #TotesFormat .

Listening Party:
Today!10:30 PM GMT+2
after the previously released split-tape of THERE ARE NO BIRDS HERE and COLDSORE on TOTES FORMAT a few years back, we decided to collaborate under the new guise of THE SORE BIRDS ARE COLD HERE. we have done so on and off for about a year in a very relaxed anti-work manner, with zero stress about productivity, since we like work to be play.
unfortunately very delayed due to a breakdown of the over 2 decades old CD-burner from extreme frost exposure in the TOTES FORMAT storage facility (a woodshed) we are happy to present you this first release of our new project. (behold: one 'digital only' tune has been already appeared on an conceptual compilation on HISTAMINE TAPES. check it out: histaminetapes.bandcamp.com/track/throwstones)
after a new burner was assembled from scraps, it was possible to make the first batch of 25 mini-CDrs in hand printed covers made from recycled frozen pizza boxes. this CDr contains one long-form drone / field-recording assemblage, that is based on actions of trespassing and reclaiming zones, that once were commons and have now fallen into the greedy hands of those considered to be in power over our existence in the world (on the land). this is an ode to broken down fences, busted doors, cracked locks, ladders traversing walls and acts of tunneling free.
