Big fan of all things Sloow, well, almost all things (nothing is perfect), so I can guarantee you a couple more of their OOP releases will appear in coming months.
This was the last release of 2005 for Sloow Tapes capping off a rather successful first year - Keijo, Uton, MCIAA... Limited to 65 copies each with a hand cut octopus (or 'squidopus' - as described on Sloow's site) stuck to the J-card.
Now I'm not 100% sure how this was created so please excuse me if I'm slightly wrong, but the two pieces on here (one per side) are apparently made from Number None's 'Nervous Climates' disc (see previous post). The two guys in NN rejigged the sounds and then sent them off to MPA to remix.
Just listening to the tape I wouldn't have guessed. The two pieces are poles apart with the A-side sounding like an ambulance riding haunted winds and the B-side sounding like Charlie playing cars inside Willy Wonka's bubble machine.

Tracks 1 and 7 of the MPA release in the last post will be re-posted tomorrow (ran out of time tonight).

The next couple of Under the Spire releases could be real sleepers - by that I mean unspotted gems. Apparently they will be from Ous Mal (myspace) and Martin Herterich (myspace).
Root Strata should be re-opening soon and will most likely have the new Barn Owl LP for sale - not saying definitely but it was on sale at their recent festival thing.

anyone who didnt get the original issue of that Emuul 2x3" should definitely snag a copy of the tape! i think the tunes on that one are probably even better than his Stunned tape. very rich organ and guitar sounds. warmth!
They do sound beautiful. It's a shame 1-sided records always seem to be really expensive otherwise that Gustafsson record would be bought instantly and as a result, that MK LP too.
Just listening to some Emuul on myspace and read the Foxy review; very calming.
So many temptations...
The Starving Weirdos / Tom Carter / Shawn McMillen LP, too.
Hey, this is Darren Bauler (I'm MPA): thanks for posting these! Damp And Damned was pretty weird -- Jeremy sent me a copy of Nervous Climates before it had a name, and I made a couple long remixes using loops from Nephophobia and Polar Kraken and worked out a story of some kinda Lovecraftian expedition-gone-wrong; they added some bells and theremin to those tracks and sent it to Bart. I don't think we really thought about releasing it before the Sloow Tapes offer. Somewhere I think I still have a recording of the live show the three of us played in Chicago (on a bill with Locrian) in 2006 which was never released.
Thanks for finding this and leaving a message Darren. So both tracks are your remixes? Would not have guessed either originated from 'Nervous Climates'.
Really great stuff.
Hope you don't mind these last two posts.
Thanks again for the info.
Ammonites 'Tenth Transmitter' is an amazing release that repays repeated listenings. Beautifully packaged too.
Something new every time.
Yeah?
Haven't heard any Ammonites yet, may back track in the new year and get a copy then.
