Specter (Sound Signature/Tetrode) banging the loosey goosey vibe ... This mix got taken down due to shitty copyright algorithm or cosmic squirrel conspiracies... who knows ... anyway, back up now (we hope) .... enjoy!

**Please Note** There's roughly a 20-30 second silence at the start ... the only way we could get round the mix being blocked ... sorry!

Garland -  # 2 - LFI016 Limited edition of 300

This Spring Garland returns with their second album on LFI. 
The follow up to their debut Preludes # 1 is a surreal journey in which the duo further explore their shared interest of sample based music, minimalism and arrangement methods found in the dub tradition. By combining analogue and digital technologies with found sounds and acoustic instrumentation, Cologne based DJ Phillip Jondo and Glasgow based artist Simon Weins invite the listener to delve deeper into their exploration of time, space, texture and form...
Returning with a more refined body of work, Garland sets the tone on # 2 by shifting attention to the ever-changing nature inherent to sound itself. Worlds in which the origin of sound is untraceable and where micro events become the basis for extended explorations.

Mastering by Gordon Pohl
Artwork by Fenna Fiction

From way of Berlin we are very pleased to welcome the 6 piece psychedelic outfit of 2Morph.

Perhaps unknown to many, this group of friends (father & son included) have spent the past two Summer’s travelling the wilderness of Europe in their bus - winding through the hillsides & mountain tops, beaming out their live band freak-outs for select village goers.

This 50 minute cassette of 100% OG material, hauled back from their recent trip to the mystical land of Panaceum (a hidden valley in Germany rumoured to house the elixir of life's ails) is naturally well soaked on a Krautrock tip - with psychedelic hymns & hypnotic percussion, detaching from the linear plane. 

Float down stream & let your mind wander outwards to the healing sounds of 2Morph.

Available now via the Online Store & select stores worldwide.

Big thanks to Corey from Sleep D for the mastering & Max Graef for opening the door.

Music is an innately social activity, even music created in the interest of self-reflection and meditation. Early in 2020, Australia's response to the rapidly evolving Covid-19 pandemic had the music community close its doors not only to the outside world, but to each other. By order of a government directive, all social gatherings - including live music performance, group rehearsal and collaborative recording - were to cease around the country.

It was unclear at the start of the pandemic what role peer-to-peer interaction played in the lives of Australian composers. Many already worked from home, well versed in the art of creating spaces of solitude in cities, of building environments conducive to self-reflection, innovation and creativity.

But how much do we really depend upon our community? In a world where self-isolation is no longer a personal choice, will creativity flounder, or flourish?

The recordings in this series are a document of these months and these reflections. A meditation on the way we exist and create, both together and in solitude. As with any creative work, it is up to the listener to draw what they will from these works, and to carry this forward into the world they now inhabit.

New releases will be added ongoing 1 by 1, fortnightly from October. Depending on how long this V2 lockdown goes, we may add even more. Who knows, we may continue this until 2022, forever in hibernation and isolation, yet not isolated.

しかし、それをみつければ、自分という存在が戻ってくるのだけではなく、自分がより強くなり、成長するのである。~  However, if one does find the self, it will not simply return, but instead do so stronger and more developed.

"All dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous, for they may act on their dream with open eyes, to make it possible." - T.E. Lawrence (Seven Pillars of Wisdom)

Distributed in the underground and played in the underground since 2003.
