JASON MARTIN "Harmonic Time Cycles & Scary Guitar Man"
Yeay! 033 | 10/11 | 60mins /cassette. color copy cover. | $6
This long-overdue Yeay! debut tape by spandex-wolf, mad-genius, Jason Martin features two long audio collage works - one radio play / lecture / sermon about the nature of time and the other, a grateful nod to our departed beefheart in puzzling words & sizzling strings. Martin is a particularly diabolical man of riddim & as an engineer, he carefully sculpts tone with recording details that sparkle especially in their dirtiest passages. Put this cookie in your fun salad.
HORAFLORA / BROMP TREB
Yeay! 032 | 05/11 | 6mins / 45rpm 7" single. laser cut, rubber stamped covers | $7
A gnarly single of bi-coastal busted beats from the bay area's best electroacoustic speaker-fryer HoraFlora going toe to toe against western mass's tape-twisting percussion-plopper Bromp Treb. Two bangin' dancefloor failures on one sick slab. So hot it smells like smoke (most likely cos the covers are laser-cut paper) graphics & package design by Sightlab. edition of 300. That's right, i said 'gnarly' - so please grip hard. Click on image of record to the left to hear samples & peek a couple custom covers up close.
BROMP TREB "LOOP ROTATOR POOL"
Yeay! 031 | 12/10 | 17 mins/infinite | CDR color photocopy | $6
A collection of 77 tapeloops collected over the past nine or so years - all perfectly loopable & hard-panned 2trk interlock... press single track repeat & go nuts! Infinite fun for those who seek infinite fun (in that repetitive way). Swooping noises, chugging beats, tattered samples, & dribbly synths - all without any of that complicated mixing that always gets in the way. Now the loop can just "be".
