Ambassador Hazy - The Door Between ()

LP Edition of 350 Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz $21 Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records are delighted to present to you the new Ambassador Hazy LP ‘The Door Between’ Following last year’s much loved and long sold out ‘The Traveler’ Ambassador Hazy is back with ‘The Door Between’ (the title taken from an old detective novel) which is a perfect metaphor for album’s explorations into consciousness and perception, seeing the connectedness between all things while also embracing one’s solitude and separation from others.  Themes that were amplified as the record was recorded alone in a basement during a pandemic.  With some new mics and toys featuring on this recording, Sterling experiments a bit more with recording techniques and different sounds… Read more »

Delphine Dora & Jackie McDowell - The Dream of Change ()

LP Edition of 280. Co-Release Round Bale Recordings $21 Gorgeous set of duets by France’s Delphine Dora and Pittsburgh’s Jackie McDowell. This is the first time we have done a release by McDowell (who we first heard back when she was recording as Inez Lightfoot), but we were lucky enough to have done the Divine Ekstasys LP (FTR 342), on which Delphine collaborated with the great Sophie Cooper. The Dream of Change is another amazing piece of music, Delphine mostly provides voice and keys, Jackie adds vocals and strings, and the combination possesses an otherworldly beauty that will knock you right off your cloud. Their approaches to avant-ethereal are different and distinct, but the way they blend and amplify each… Read more »

Jackie-O Motherfucker - Manual Of The Bayonet ()

LP Edition of 472. $20 Manual of the Bayonet is hopefully just the first volume of archival recordings by this most excellent destructo-unit from the Pacific Northwest. The material here was recorded in Portland OR, between the years of 1999 and 2001, with some combination of ten members participating in the sessions. We always viewed JOMF as the West Coast version of free-rock collectives like NYC’s No Neck Blues Band and Boston’s Sunburned Hand of the Man. JOMF emerged from the Smegma-damaged wing of the Northwest sub-underground, and when you’d go see them about all you could figure was that the line-up would include Tom Greenwood. Although, now that I think about it, I recall a tour they did with… Read more »

Mike Watt & Charles Plymell - Live In Fishtown ()

LP Edition of 460. Download slip included in lp. bandcamp. $22 On a hot night in Philly — Saturday August 9, 2008 — Brooke Sietsons’ backyard hosted the No More Bush tour. The line-up that evening was Zaimph, Jack Rose, MV+EE, Tom Carter & Willie Lane, 50 Foot Women with Axolotl, and the sole known appearance of the Mike Watt/Charles Plymell duo. Plymell and Watt had met a year earlier at the Festival Ecstatique in Western Mass, and they hit it off like crazy. So when this tour was coming together, and Charley agreed to reprise the work he did on the More Hair Less Bush tour in ’94, we noticed Watt’s path with the Stooges might intersect around the… Read more »

Bruce Russell - Circuits of Omission ()

12″ 45rpm Edition of 440. $20 Herewith is an extraordinary 45 RPM album of solo electronic music by NZ’s great contrarian, Bruce Russell. The pieces were all created using machines built by Clinton Williams, whose musical work under the OMIT monniker has long been championed by Bruce. Unlike many of Williams’s own recordings, which contain kosmiche extensions recalling the ’70s work of Klaus Schulze, the 15 improvised Sonatas presented here mix a few of those sorts of sonorities with a variety of more harshly-edged tones. There are also post-techno references recalling the work of folks like Scott Foust and Stefan Jaworzyn, in addition to the artists to whom some of the pieces are dedicated — musicians Ralf Wehowsky and Martin… Read more »

Turner Williams Jr. - Briars On A Dewdrop ()

LP Edition of 350. Drowned Lands Series no.4. Bandcamp link $23 Turner Williams Jr is a string-player out of the same Alabama surrealist scene that gave us Rev. Fred Lane & the Say Day Bew gang, Davey Williams & LaDonna Smith’s Trans Museq universe, and the Sweet Wreath madmen (who have been working with Johnny Coley, Silica Gel and others). Some crazy shit has gone on down there, and Mr. Williams soaked it all in before heading up to NYC, where he fell in with some of the Sound @ One scene. Which added another layer to the freak potential of his playing. After drifting around the East Coast for a few years, Williams packed up and moved to Marseilles,… Read more »

Joseph Allred - What Strange Flowers Grow In The Shade ()

LP Edition of 480. Bandcamp. $21 Tennessee-based string bender, Joseph Allred likes to change things up from album to album. But usually he does this one element or instrument at a time. On What Strange Flowers Grow in the Shade, Joseph adds a whole heck of a lot of elements. And he does so without ever really disguising the identity of his music. The six tracks here were all recorded with different line-ups. “The Valley” features Chris Davis (Cherry Blossoms) and the Magic Tuber Stringband. “The Ruins” is a Basho-esque solo piece created with large varieties of instrumental glisten. ”A Long Winter” features previous collusionists, Mikey Allred on trombone and Matt Johnson on synth. “Lake Erie” features Jen Powers on… Read more »

Big Blood - Big Blood & The Bleedin’ Hearts ()

LP Co-Released with There Is No Trouble In Denmark $21 Vinylization of the seventh (I think) album by Big Blood on which they are abetted by the Bleedin’ Hearts — Tom Kovacevic and Micah Blue Smaldone (who were Caleb & Colleen’s bandmates in Fire On Fire) and Kelly Nesbitt (a Portland-based musician/performance artist.) Not sure if the Bleedin’ Hearts ever did anything on their lonesome, but here (serving as a kind of pre-Quinnisa secret weapon) they deliver the goods. Recorded at home in South Portland Maine “at various times through various means,” this session was originally released on CDR in 2008.  For about half the album Big Blood retains its duo/”ghost quartet” profile, with the core participants generating copious gusts… Read more »

Big Blood - The Grove ()

LP Edition of 500. Co-Released with There Is No Trouble In Denmark $21 Vinylization of what was something like the sixth release by Big Blood, originally issued on cassette & CDR in the year 2008. At the time, Big Blood was still a quartet comprised of two flesh and blood humans, along with their two spirit animals, and the sound here maintains some of the acid-folk-witchiness (ala Comus or early Spires That in the Sunset Rise) that marked the band’s pre-Quinnisa era. Recorded at Big Blood’s South Portland Maine headquarters during the winter of 2007, the instrumentation is largely acoustic (or at least acoustic sounding) apart from the album’s closer, “Low Gravity Blues,” which is built around a big electric… Read more »
