Carrie & Lowell Tour Exclusive 7" Vinyl
To quote Asthmatic Kitty "No download card. Sorry about that. At first we thought it would be more interesting to let this be vinyl only. Then we realized that's a dumb idea. Then we ran out of time. So no download? Of course someone will digitize and put on the internet, so good job internet! This is what happens when we all work together! Go team!"

Artist: Lapland
Album: Lapland
Release date: March 26, 2013
Record label: Hundred Pockets Records

About: 
The beginning of Lapland started before it even had a name. It was born in a tiny half-bedroom in Brooklyn, where songwriter Josh Mease began recording a new batch of songs in early 2011. Mease has always found comfort in the solitude of his own thoughts, often preferring the landscapes within his mind’s eye over the bustle of the city that surrounds him. So it seems fitting that in making Lapland’s self-titled debut, he worked alone using whatever was within reach – only rarely using other musicians.

Perhaps this self-imposed isolation is why Lapland has such an introspective tone. Themes of separation and loss are woven throughout the album, as Lapland moves fluently through different styles and genres while maintaining a uniquely personal sound.  From the percolating electronic gallop of the opening track, “Unwise”, to the blue-eyed soul of “Aeroplane”, to the acoustic haze and layered harmonies of “Overboard”, Mease always keeps things interesting.  One can hear the effect of the myriad of music styles and genres that informed Lapland – Early synth pioneers of the 60′s and 70′s, French Impressionists like Ravel and Debussy, and 1970′s staples like Fleetwood Mac.

Mixing styles is not new for Mease. He grew up in Texas where his childhood love of rock and country evolved into studying jazz guitar. After moving to New York, he eventually shifted his focus from playing jazz to singing and writing songs. This transformation gives Mease a unique approach to songwriting, and his work has earned him fans not only in indie circles but also in jazz, R&B, and classical music as well.

The name Lapland only presented itself after the album was completed, when Mease picked up a book from the $2 stacks at a used bookstore called “Lappland Wanderland.” The book contained photos of other-worldly landscapes and vast open spaces which seemed to connect with Mease’s new recording. It was not a difficult decision to adopt the name Lapland for this new phase of Mease’s career. The scope of his work deserves a moniker of symbolic significance. And so, Lapland began.

Due to some rather strangely worded articles on various online music sites you might have landed here under the mistaken belief that this is Sufjan's account. I am not Sufjan! He has his very own tumblr at https://soundcloud.com/tumblr-ghetto 
His rather lovely record label, Asthmatic Kitty, can be found here https://soundcloud.com/asthmatickitty.

I have no affiliation with AK or Sufjan. I'm just a fellow fan of his music and got the okay from AK (via a reddit post) to upload this rip of the tour exclusive vinyl. I'm highly unlikely to be posting any more music. I won't be offended if you unfollow :) 

The extended remix of Impossible Soul featuring Kazoo, Triangle and Cow Bell (that I've been working on tirelessly for the last five years) will probably never see the light of day...
