Francisco Franco are a trio originating in Philadelphia, playing instrumental music for two guitars, bass, and electronic rhythm tracks. The group started as a duo of Rob Francisco (who plays solo industrial noise as M Ax Noi Mach) and Matt Franco (from Allentown noise group Air Conditioning), who wanted a creative outlet for more melodic, less abrasive musical modes. After recording some demos, they added Nate Davis (who also plays as Unchained) on bass, and began composing songs of simple guitar lines intertwining over the bass’s harmonic foundation. Influences such as the first Microdisney LP, The Durutti Column, and 70s library records may be heard, but crowds at recent shows have made comparisons as diverse as Neu! and Dick Dale. This is new wave elevator music: melodic, minimal, and extremely listenable. Two cassettes of demos have been released by Silvox Recordings, and their debut LP is out November 12th on Matt Mondanile’s New Images Limited label.

Ryuichi Sakamoto & Taylor Deupree live at the Boiler Room x St John's Sessions

I’ve decided to remaster some albums and tracks that have already been released.  Just felt I could give them a different kinda sound...

I import the audio files into the daw and then usually load one or more processors of some kind (vinyl, compressor, desk emulations etc) on the stereo master buss. This is configured to colour, shape the sound. My versions are sometimes lower in vol level than the originals. Some releases are hot to signal, but I'm looking for an inherent sound.

Sometimes I apply some chamber and or hall reverb. 

The Virgin Suicides, 2000

I played synth telecaster to tracks 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11.
Also played synth rhodes to tracks 7, 9, 12, 13.
Applied variating delay to the last three tracks.

Remist cover features cassette tape cover/back cover, 2000.

Air - The Virgin Suicides (Remisted)

Recently I’ve been thinking a lot about the spiritual end of the jazz spectrum and what collectivized forms of knowledge it contains. After playing a lot of these records at our local hifi bar, Little Jerry, I thought I’d put together a mix of some favourites from across decades and continents -- sounds from the UK, Finland, Sweden, and of course the US. From the early ‘70s right up to last year.

Cherry Eye - Andy Stott

Around the time that I moved into a street-level apartment in North Philly at 17th and Jefferson, literally the worst locale I have ever lived, I would spend hours on borrowed wifi with YouTube suggested algorithms feeding me music while I laid on my couch with my cats. There was one such instance that a tune popped up with extremely primitive, proto-techno sound so I got up to see whose track was playing. It turns out it was Shane English, a name I had been seeing more on flyers around the east coast and who I would eventually meet when he played as part of his duo Corporate Park at the Vat the same summer. Corporate Park was one of the best sounding and exciting acts and I had seen in a long while. I kept up with their work as well as the solo endeavors of Shane as well as Jonah Lange, the other half of CP. 
Now, in 2019, Shane has released several records on LIES as well as having a hand in the groundbreaking comp Eminent Domain, a catalog of the recent American underground. The project was large in scope with multiple pressings in different wax colors, posters, and multi-fold jackets. It was extremely impressive. 
Aside from his capable productions, Shane is also a renowned collector of obscure musics and media. On this mix, he pulled out tapes and records from the more relatable content of Vox Populi! and delves deeper into strange French and Italian electronics. It is a rare treat to host a mix of material in which you are new to the things you are hearing and I hope this acts as a learning experience for us all.
