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.

The 38th release of katharsis and our final release of 2023 is the prodigious compilation "Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light" featuring a vast array of artist beloved by the label. Throughout the grandiose line-up of the 36 tracks, the listener is absorbed by various differing interpretations of the theme outlined in the title of the album. Some of the invited artist went full into introverted progressions and meditative sounds, while others focused on aggressive rhythms or anthemic melodies. But even though the styles and techniques of the songs differ from each other, the artists seem to have some commonality in their sonic palettes that binds it all together in a mutual love for music as a healing force of nature <3

New on Gone Baby, archival release of juvenilia album HAINT LIVES THERE from South Texas producer Andres B aka LINUS. Recorded in his mid to late teens between 2009 - 2013, these tracks are a worthy entry point into the producer's distinct southern sound. American folk and soul, eviscerated bass, and Episcopalian hymns and choirs are pulled and wound into mournful, disembodied grooves, the sound of a childhood dream (nightmare?), long forgotten, remembered one last time on your deathbed; the sound you might hear coming from an abandoned church (or nightclub) in a one horse town in the dead of night. Constructed on thrifted drum machines, a broken SP-202, and an MPC1000, I'm extremely proud to present these select few tracks from a huge archive of unreleased material from my lifelong friend, whose style and influence I carry with me in everything I touch, whose disinterest in optimization and promotion keeps his well pure and truly rural.
