From the Psychic Liberation vaults comes a pairing of sonic material from artists LXV and Glyn Maier. Having originally been planned for respective 7” releases, the pairing of these modernist technological psychedelia recordings revealed themselves to sit beautifully together. 

Lxv is the most prolific alias of David Sutton, a sound arranger from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He also records under the monikers Heaven Copy, Temporal Movement, as well as his full name, David Wesley Sutton. Glyn Maier is a sound artist and field recordist living in the Unorganized Territory of South Oxford, Maine. A longtime fixture of East Coast underground circuits, Maier has performed and recorded under various aliases, most recently as Lack. Maier currently runs nature friendly label Enmossed.

Sutton notes of the A side material “The two recordings which appear on this side were created using pure data and a Roland SP808EX. They come to you from the distant year 2015. At this time I was very interested in exploring irregular modes of rhythm and constructions of motion in a digital audio environment. I sought to emulate the wavering state between tech-infused dysphoria and transcendent euphoria -through creating a pathway to irregular groove excavation in the disjointed wriggles of adverse movements, tangled up, like a tornado blasting through a junkyard and assembling a pc, but not quite.”

On the flip side of the record, ‘Memoria' and 'Gŵyl' were recorded in late summer 2017 following the passing of Maier’s grandmother. “I built them using sounds coaxed from her collection of wooden shakers and metallic windchimes. Further processing and arrangement were done with an Arp 2600 synthesizer and a handful of analog effects units. A final touch was provided by Brood X cicadas that I recorded in her backyard. Predicted to emerge in 2021, a small cohort awakened early and sang through the sweltering evenings my family and I spent sifting through her belongings - a lifetime of materialized memories.

The 12” comes in an edition of 150 hand stamped copies, in yellow disco jacket and poly sleeve.
A side mastered by Jack Callahan
B side mastered by Glyn Maier
Distributed in the U.S.A. by Fantastique.

1988 Mitsubishi Montero Sport: a small hard copy run of material that debuted live in late 2019 and early 2020. A musically headless period that spiraled out into silence before being sublimated in this release dedicated to one specific and inoperable vehicle. More important to me than whether or not efforts in sound meet a set of standards is that complex moments be marked, however imperfectly.

Laura Conant provided us with (almost) 20 minutes of her own production. The sound piece relies heavily on micro-sampling and processing of sounds, both coming from Laura Conant’s making and samples from different sources. Sounds are being transformed, stretched out, cut and re-arranged. Moments of calm are followed by sudden outbursts. Glide into a narrative and sound-designed focused story, yet warm and intimate.

Laura Conant is one half of MONTAGE, a label and event series from Brussels. The producer and DJ is known for various mixes and radioshows, exploring different styles and musical scenes.

corecore comes to you with this spoiled and blessed sunday service, which was broadcast on March 12th of 2023 on Radio TNP: an 8+ hour broadcast live from a cabin in Amsterdam Noord and from afar. With 24 times 20 minute live sets, sonic performances, mini-mixes and audio collages, sourced from corecore’s virtual community and beyond.

Laura Conant | spoiled & blessed sunday service

Atlas, the label debut EP by Foxconn Suicide, is a dense ocean of dilated, murky industrial grooves, shimmering trance-derived arpeggios and sporadic noisy, deteriorating assaults.

In a swamp steeped in digital pitfalls, the duo's mechanical contortions turn a stern gaze to the mournful march of the industrial world and the cold rave nostalgia of centuries past, guiding us to the stake of an old and painful path, favoring under their breath an unknown and present torment.

Exploring the dangerous limits of the senses, the EP's five tracks accompany us on this violent immersion into the human ego, accepting the intimate and dark boundaries of self-processing and finally rebelling through an uneasy, neuromantic but necessary reaction.
