COIL 'A Guide For Beginners - The Voice Of Silver / A Guide For Finishers - A Hair Of Gold' 2CD (CSR288CD)

Deluxe reissue of 2xCD 'Best Of' by the esoteric experimental pioneers.

Out of print on CD for almost two decades, Cold Spring are proud to announce the official reissue of a much sought after 'Best Of' set by the acclaimed experimental group Coil, with 'A Guide For Beginners - The Voice Of Silver' and 'A Guide For Finishers - A Hair Of Gold' being made available together in one deluxe set.

Officially licensed from FEELEE, this edition spans Coil's entire career, featuring tracks from all their major albums. They were hand-picked by Coil to represent their best work and originally released to mark their first performance in Moscow in 2001.

The artwork (text in English and Russian Cyrillic) sympathetically features the rarest of the images previously used in the original Russian and English editions and is packaged in a deluxe, glossy 8-panel digipak with spot matt-laminate varnish.

The vinyl-only edition by FEELEE was released as two separate luxurious 2xLP editions in 2018 (http://feelee.bandcamp.com). All artwork for the Cold Spring edition has been approved by FEELEE.

Double CD in an 8-panel glossy digipak with spot matt-laminate varnish. Comes with 2 glossy artcards and sticker (direct from Cold Spring only).

Her Legacy Was Stained

Trigger Time

https://soundcloud.com/systemma1/sets/ue-clairvoyance

Mountain cries for her children, elegy. 
Bitter, snow-covered solitude. 
The Quest Of Life is to rule upon the Matter. 
Now, when the answer is finally mine, 
I don't need it anymore.

Drown in acoustic innerscapes, 
I realise myself in the dawn of times. 
Salt waters, 
Metaborn.

I do not feel anxious.

You and I in a dance of hertzes, 
Structured pace. 
Have we been here before?

Star Alliance, mission in unity.

The Earth is expanding, so is alive. 
She is whole, conscious, and panpsychistic. 
And I don't need anything anymore.

Six-channel sound installation for "hibernatemode" by Su Yu Hsin. Fenko Catalysis Chamber, Taipei, Taiwan, 2019

Project Details: aloisyang.com/hibernatemode
Su Yu Hsin: www.suyuhsin.net

“ But the sleep of a hibernate object would instead be a state of perfect sleep, in which an entity would be real but simply without relation.”

Aiôn is a Hellenistic deity associated with time, ex. season, breath, sleep (dream) etc, even Deleuze describes Cinematic time as aiôn which stretches out to become an intangible past and future, or Chronos (Chr), the ever-present that expresses only the here and now. In Geology, aiôn uses for eternity time which could also refer to four aiôns that make up the earth’s history. Aiôn is defined in Astronomy as Trillion years. Thus, we could say hibernatemode is in aiôn where an entity breaks relation with outside.

Su Yu Hsin composes essay film through philosophical and scientific approach to overlap and juxtaposition image with events, ex. Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011. Australian scientists’ microscopic investigation of antarctic moss reveals atmospheric record of Earth in its layer of cells. She uses found footage, data and facts to visualize relational geographic analysis. Hibernatemode comprised of 2- channel video and six channel sound installation. She collaborates with Sound artist Aloïs Yang to constructed nature in exhibition space.

Original press release text:
Cover Versions – Record-edition and installation by Andrew Pekler

For ten days, the gallery Laura Mars Grp. is transformed into a record shop, complete with records in browser bins, recommendations on the walls and a record shop clerk to assist customers. This record shop, however, only sells one record: Cover Versions by Andrew Pekler, each copy of which is packaged in its own individual album cover. 

Andrew Pekler selected 300 different covers from cheap second-hand records and, using colorful geometric elements to cover over all titles, performer's names, and label logos, removed traces of the covers' original contexts. 

The sunsets, couples in silhouette, alpine panoramas, roses on pianos, faces in close-up, and seascapes no longer serve as the packaging for easy listening, , volksmusik, exotica and light classical. Instead, the romantic, bizarre and intriguingly bland images of the original covers are free to lend their evocative powers to the record of new music they now house. 

Likewise, the principle of collage is audible in Andrew Pekler's compositions. The electronically transformed fragments of audio extracted from the original records take on a new existence as Cover Versions.

Cover Versions is a co-production between Andrew Pekler, Laura Mars Grp., Fantôme Verlag and Senufo Editions.
