AU - Recycling (Locust22) US CD $13.99
The wonder of it all continues! For our February installment in the Location Sound Series devoted to city sounds and reactions we're happy to present the first stateside release by the psychedelic electronic duo, AU. Based in Holland, multimedia artists Jan Borchers and Paul Klaui, naturally bring us into the soundworld of the Haag by doing what most everybody there does - they ride their bikes. The twist in the spoke is that AU recorded their tour through the city and captured everything from the squeaky sound of old bicycle seats to a sudden intrusion on a street parade. The result is a fun panoramic earshot of the pace of the city's life. AU's musical response is a subdued yet loose piece incorporating elements of the field recording, analogue electronics and reverberating guitars that recall the efforts of German Krautrock bands like Cluster or a mellowed out Faust." - label description.

Noonday Underground - Surface Noise (Setanta SETLP109) UK LP $13.99
Follow-up to the excellent (and Atlantis favorite) debut LP from Simon Dine, the mind behind the original Adventures in Stereo (not the watered down imposter line-up that has existed for the last few years). Moving on from the more cut-n-paste pop approach of the early AIS material and the debut Noonday LP, these songs show more sophistication in their construction. From Northern Soul tunes to dusty grooves, think Tricky's Nearly God project or a less broody Portishead. Features the lovely & soulful vocals of Daisy Martey and guests Paul Weller & Francis Reader of the Trash Can Sinatras.

Pelt/Keenan Lawler/Eric Clark - Keyhole II (ECLIPSE 018) (ltd/514) US DLP $17.99
On May 13, 2001, at the Louisville (KY) Visual Arts Association's gallery at the Water Tower was host to the Keyhole ensemble. Ensemble members include Eric Clark, a metal worker who made some of the singing bowls and the bronze didgeridus played here, Patrick Best, Mike Gangloff, and Jack Rose, who also play as the trio Pelt, and Keenan Lawler, who is known for electronically modifying the sounds of a cello and National steel guitar. This performance was completely acoustic, however, with the only sonic treatment being the reverb lent by the gallery's high ceiling. 'My memories of this show are of the incredible resonance of the Water Tower gallery, just an amazing alive quality to the air that let each note linger on and on and that filled the quieter moments with breath and inevitability. At one point I remember being lifted, compelled to climb to a balcony over the room and lean out to play a singing bowl. If this drops, I recall thinking as I stirred the heavy brass, we may lose an audience member...but this sound is necessary. Awhile later, a man fell out of his seat and a woman who had been lying on the floor sat up suddenly and cracked her head on a glass table.' Mike Gangloff. This is a beautiful recording pressed in an edition of 514 copies with printed color sleeve.- label description.

Asmus Tietchens - Adventures In Sound/Nachtstucke (Die Stadt DS55) Ger DCD $25.99
First in a series of 18 CD's aiming to make available all early vinyl albums by Asmus Tietchens between 1980 - 1991 on CD. Each release feat. the original tracks (sometimes extended / original versions) + unreleased bonus tracks from the same recording period, original artwork + accompanying texts by Tietchens. This - the only 2CD in the series - feat. his very first album 'Nachtstucke' from 1980 (incl. 4 bonus tracks) + a 2nd CD with archive material recorded with his long time friend Okko Bekker between 1965-1969. These are the first works in Tietchens long career as a sound artist and were never released before. Edition of 1000 copies in jewelcase with full color poster booklet. About the artist: Asmus Tietchens started recording music as early as 1965 (documented here on 'Adventures In Sound') though his first release only appeared 15 years later ('Nachtstucke'). Ever since then he stayed very productive and had numerous cassette, vinyl and CD releases on numerous labels (Sky, United Dairies, Dom, Staalplaat, Ritornell and Die Stadt to name just a few). He has collaborated with various other like minded artists such as Okko Bekker, Cluster, Conny Plank, Terry Burrows, Liquidski, David Lee Myers (Arcane Device) and most recently with Thomas Koner who is one half of their ongoing collaborational project Kontakt Der Junglinge (who so far released 3 CD's DS34/DS39/DS48 on Die Stadt)."- label description.
Ure Thrall - Premonition 9/11 // The Traveler (Drone DR-58) (ltd/250)(handmade sleeve) German 7" $7.99
Ure Thrall is an american artist from Houston, TX (living for many years in the Bay Area) who is long active in the more atmospheric- transcendental experimental US-scene in former days he was a member of the pre-Voice of Eye project Cruor and later with Asia Nova, and he also participated in the two first V.O.E. CDs as a guest musician. Now, apart from being a member of Smooth Quality Excrement, he works solo and creates most impressive soundscapish depth-drones with an incredible emotional quality, harmony & sadness melting together into beautiful aural visions. This 7", his first vinyl-release as Ure Thrall, contains two long tracks (> 8 min.) with an organic, filmic & sublime quality, using echo-flutes, bass, e-bowed guitar & restrained percussion underneath. The Traveler with all its majestic harmony seems to be like an endless travel through emotional fields of melancholia - expressing the endless search for something once known which is lost forever and you can t even remember what is was, but you feel that you need it back existentially ! Perfect music for endless drives on highways (both physically and spiritually) ... The title track Premonition 9/11 is less relaxed and more of a threatening quality, using faster percussion and strange bass-patterns with oriental sounding flutes & swirling sound-effects. This track also uses field-recordings from the tragical events happened on 11. Sept. 2001 in NYC and must be also seen as a treatment of traumatic experiences. The whole 7" is a personal statement about the politics of the USA after this tragic day, which is expressed also in the cover-artwork and the liner-notes: 'The cover art is an effigy of the American Flag in decay and is composed of an extreme close-up shot of the World Trade Center moments before its collapse, its occupants leaning out the windows fully aware of their impending transition to the next plane of existence.' Red-white-blue sprinkled multicolourvinyl.cover-picture with charred edges. first edition of 250 copies.- label description.
