Can't/Heather Leigh/Carly Ptak/Zaïmph - untitled - 2x8" lathecut set
Jessica Rylan (aka Can't) provides a 'cover version' of part of Junko's 'Sleeping Beauty' with heavily processed voice and homemade modular synthesizer. Double Leopards' Marcia Bassett pushes the tolerances of the lathe-cut to breaking point with the intensely distorted vocal loops of 'Winter Lips'. Carly Ptak offers perhaps the most unexpected contribution with the documentation of a talk she gave during a workshop dedicated to creative realisation. Heather Leigh assaults a massively reverberant drum set, all the while wailing like some supernatural creature of Scottish legend. Stunning cover art by Karen Constance. PLEASE ENQUIRE.

Villa Valley - Bedienungsanleitung - CD-R, £5/$10 postpaid
Semi-archival release from Royal Oak, Michigan stunt duo.
