I apologise if there is any digital distortion on this rip. There shouldn't be, but the couple of loud parts were looking close.
Both sides in 320kbps mp3.
Keijo was Sloow Tapes #1, MCIAA was Sloow Tapes #2 - released July 2005 in an edition of 80 copies housed in spray painted envelopes with photos (remember them?) stuck to the front and back.
I have to be honest, I find MCIAA a little hit or miss. It probably depends more on my mood than what they've recorded but this one always tends to go down well - especially played at high volumes through headphones.
Both sides are live performances, the first from La Batie Festival in 2004 when they supported Sonic Youth and the second from a gig in Cambridge (UK) in 2005. They aren't hugely dissimilar in sound - mostly electric drones with interjections from percussion or toys and bits of "singing". Good for a proper listen or as something to phase in and out of.
Side 1: 26 mins
Side 2: 30 mins
Stealing the recommendation on the insert: Play it very loud!

READ BEFORE ORDERING
Please understand that this is a PREORDER and I am only doing it
because so many people asked for it. I am only waiting for the cds to
be duplicated, which will take a few weeks. After that these things
need to be assembled and taken to the post office, which I do on my
bicycle. So please allow 4-6 WEEKS for delivery (though this is
subject to change). You can check back to to the page I set up for
updates, so please don't email me asking where your order is. No
holds, first come first serve. No limit on how many you purchase. This
set does NOT count towards any of the specials listed on the Shop
page. I apologize for the prices but these boxes were not cheap and a
lot of artists are involved (plus internation postage is expensive).
Prices: $35/$38/$42 (US/Canada/World)
