The Ceiling Is Shaking Again: KSV Info Addenda

OK, back with the extended palaver. The douche upstairs is running his wobbly waschmaschine a bit too goddamned late for my liking, but, to Hell with it. The temblors snaking down from the fifth floor also qualify as free entertainment. Mustn't be ungrateful...

KSV 107 Eric Arn, Wouter Jaspers & Stefan Kushima - Templates
Leopoldstadt divides its time between metamorphosing hypnosis and the sweatered slamming of doors; a cloak that defines hours on end as a cabin replica...


Composed and performed live by Eric Arn, Wouter Jaspers and Stefan Kushima at the Oberdeck, Hannover, September 11, 2010.

01 Arn Jaspers (11:23)
02 Kushima (15:10)

04 Arn (16:42)
05 Arn Jaspers Kushima (18:11)

Note: Eric Arn is re-working Templates for a special, second edition version! Until he's completed his post-production ablutions, the album will not be available. Those who ordered (and were shipped) the first edition prior to Arn's retreating to his Vienna atelier will receive copies of the second edition at no cost. For everyone else, the second version will now supplant the first. OK? We'll send up a flare when the album is ready for re-release.

KSV 110 Kevin Drumm & Tom Smith - Mud Keeps Lifting Me Higher



Using Kevin's recent Obstacles double set as its thematic starting point, Mud posits the recent, still-unfolding Hungarian ecological catastrophe as a slowly gurgling metaphor for all the irrevocably fucked-up shit going on around us. (Yes, it's political.) Re-edited and remixed from KD's original Obstacles masters by Tom, who also added multiple layers of splintered vocals to re-frame the narrative.

01 Mud Keeps Lifting Me Higher (72:26)

Kevin Drumm - guitar, laptop, electronics, other devices, recordings
Tom Smith - voice, edit, mix, production

Mastered by Linda, Viola & Uwe at Slab Alucard, Cluj-Napoca.

Three-week window of availability. Two weeks remain.

KSV 111 Katja Fregatte - Metalized


Portraits of acclaim from the world's largest landfill, mixing Iranian and American imagery with imperceptible changes in hue. Taking cues from interiors either real or imagined, calculated subtlety gives way, stretching one minute into ten hours, tidying up disorder...

01 Metalized (66:11)

Composed, recorded, mixed, and produced August-September by Katja Fregatte at the Mathematics and Informatics Laboratory of the University of Plovdiv, Plovdiv, Bulgaria.

Mastered by Linda, Viola & Uwe at Slab Alucard, Cluj-Napoca.
