New releases possible on the horizon for 2021... until then, everything on the Bandcamp page is set to free/pay what you want. And I've been posting DJ mixes on Soundcloud.

I also found a box of records previously thought to be lost, so they're on sale for $4 each. All other releases tagged "available" are in extremely limited quantities, not to be re-pressed.

Kevin Greenspon
Mood Recovery

Composed for late nights alone in a crowd, on an unlit highway or lost in one's own mind, Kevin Greenspon blends lush ambient sound design, aquatic dub techno and atmospheric house to sculpt a surreal world vaguely resembling the empty concrete courtyards of our own cities. An exploration into the space between emotions, "Mood Recovery" consists of cascading ribbons of tape hiss wrapped into static while seismic sub frequencies ripple deep under clattering scrapyard rhythms and gritty echoes. Throughout the journey, a contemplative shadow is cast over each moody arrangement, climaxing in a frantic rush to escape the dark.

Kevin Greenspon
Forget Something Everyday

Memory fades into a hazy realm as tomorrow emerges on "Forget Something Everyday." Kevin Greenspon shapes vibrant dream sequences from organic elements consisting of tuned voice, jittery percussion and crackling tape collage layered with glimmering synths and sugary basslines. Bright and immersive, the arrangements convey an expansive world populated by optimism and renewed energy.

Editer H
Ciruelo

Lo-fi beat savant Eric Hernandez reinvents himself monthly under dozens of pseudonyms, now taking on his role as Editer H to compose the soundtrack to a twisted real world videogame where each level is a highly personalized hell: It all begins with waking up way too early on your first day off work in weeks, getting cussed at by your mom in Spanish for not calling back home more often, then going outside and finding out your car's been broken into.

But each level can be conquered. You can land that trick on your skateboard that you've been trying for weeks, roll away clean and find a crisp hundred dollar bill in the street. Maybe go buy some weird funk record that doesn't exist yet. Or go to the auto glass repair shop as soon as it opens so there's still a little time to hang out at the park and bask in knowing everything's gonna be okay until work tomorrow.

C30 cassette · 13 songs · May 2017 · Austin, TX

Edition of 50 cassettes dubbed in real-time with full-color labels and doublesided printing on heavyweight gloss stock, includes digital download.

The Widest Smiling Faces & Marc Merza
Forest Bathing

After returning from a tour across Japan, Marc Merza reunited with The Widest Smiling Faces for a set of wistful guitar arrangements inspired by shinrin-yoku, the local practice of bathing oneself in the aura of a forest to lower stress levels. Each piece bears no title and evokes the feeling of anonymity and insignificance one feels when deeply immersed in a natural environment. Drifting notes are culled from the space between branches, pain and regret are washed away in a stream, uncertainty left behind as footsteps on an unmarked path.

C30 cassette · 8 songs · May 2017 · Brooklyn, NY

Edition of 50 cassettes dubbed in real-time with full-color labels and doublesided printing on heavyweight gloss stock, includes digital download.

Bridgetown #131

Spednar
Three Pittsburgh Grays

As an active member of the burgeoning algorave community and co-founder of Cosmic Sound internet radio, Spednar's approach to music production is a study in networks, nodes, and the loose affiliations that connect everything together. "Three Pittsburgh Grays" illustrates six short scenes with nostalgic tones ranging from dystopian drum & bass noir to imprisonment within a glitchy digital windchime, all hacked together from simple ingredients by Spednar and his live coding rig.

C30 cassette · 6 songs · May 2017 · Pittsburgh, PA

Kyle Landstra
Rest Assured

Kyle Landstra's deep back catalog of reflective synthesizer compositions and his curation of the Temple Music series in Chicago have earned him a reputation as one of the finest synth gurus in the Midwest underground, conjuring intangible zones in which his audiences can retreat and spend some time with the self.

On "Rest Assured," Landstra excels in the construction of skeletal environments that seamlessly sink into the background and evoke playful, optimistic and contemplative moods. Each piece is arranged sparingly, and serves as a loose scaffolding or frame to contain a different feeling for the listener to sink into without distraction from the pace of a normal day.

C60 cassette · 5 songs · December 2016 · Chicago, IL

Edition of 93 cassettes dubbed in real-time with full-color labels and doublesided printing on heavyweight gloss stock, includes digital download.
