New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / DELIRIOUS MUSIC FOR DELIRIOUS PEOPLE COMP (ART PHAG, MAC BLACKOUT, R HELLSPAWN)

« on: August 27, 2011, 05:25:09 PM »

The Delirious Insomniac Freeform Radio Show has haunted the airwaves of WLUW into the wee hours of dreary Monday Nights since 2008. Host Arvo Fingers uses his lengthy experience as a sleepless madman to wield surrealistic songs and sounds into a slithering swath for 4 hours a week. Presently, "Delirious Insomniac" is also syndicated on RadioKL.Hr in Croatia, with occasional interviews, virtual guest installations, ghost hosts, and radio art. On September 9th, 2011, Arvo Fingers and WLUW will be celebrating the 4th Anniversary of the Delirious Insomniac Freeform Radio Show as well as the release of the first volume of "Delirious Music For Delirious People", a compilation featuring Jarboe, Mac Blackout, Haunted George, Art Phag, Rancid  Hell Spawn, Controlled Bleeding, Zola Jesus, Boyd Rice and Friends, Gary Wilson, BeNe GeSSeRiT, Big City Orchestra, Hans Grusel's Krankenkabinet, and others.

CDs in Digipaks won't be available by the 9th, but professionally printed CDRs in jewel cases will be ready. If anyone would like to make pre orders, the CDRs are $6 postage paid in the USA, $9 postage paid elsewhere. The CDs in digipaks will be available some time after that, and are $8 postage paid in the USA, $11 elsewhere. Feel free to send money through paypal to misterfvckhead@yahoo.com if you would like to pre order this release, orders will ship around mid September.

At this time, less than 150 copies of the digipaks are available and not spoken for.  The pro CDRs will stay in print unless someone happens to want to work with me on a double LP.

"SAINT STREET" pro shrink wrapped CDR, or  pro duplicated, imprinted smoky tinted chrome cassettes with double sided 5 panel inserts.     Digital harsh noise oriented work from 2003 - 2010, in some cases made before any prior knowledge of "harsh noise", out of explorations with failure at making structured electronic music.   More musical elements than a usual harsh noise release can be expected.  80 minutes.  A raw track from this release can be heard here:

"HELLO WALLS" - Originally issued on the now defunct Enemata Productions in 2008 (headed by Rick from Infirmary), this new edition comes with 3 single sided 3x5 cards,   a yellowed, crumbling page of a book from 1938 with old English text in German, and a generous amount of soil from either "The Bird Sanctuary" along Montrose area lake grounds, the Morse beach, or Bachelor's Grove Cemetary, reputedly the most haunted place in the country.   Select copies come with worms, bird bones, and garbage.  Cassettes are black Type II High Bias, duplicated by Andy Ortmann with full color labels inside of a smokey poly case, all contents come in a black 4x6 poly bag.  Specific soil requests are not available.  Run time is approximately 68 minutes.  Limited to 84 with a small amount set aside for a special edition packaging later this summer.  More pictures to follow.

Now available in shrinkwrapped pro CDR format as well as the original cassette edition:



http://claytoncounts.com/333/333%20excerpt%201.mp3

The material on "333" is made up of free association compositions that incorporate rhythmic noise, pseudo-classical mannerisms, watery electronic sounds, and spastic, fluttering drum machines with wild time-signature juxtapositions. First partially written in 2003, in a 2nd floor closet, squatting in a rat-infested house that only had power in the flooded basement, Clayton Counts mastered the final product in a stretch of about 5 8 hour long days, while we went over every detail.  The 60 minutes of material amalgamates a series of cohesive works made specifically for live performance, in manic, alcohol soaked, dark and solitary sittings of 15-25 hours, then obsessively expanded/refined until 2009.  It is composed entirely with a Yamaha RM1x sequencer, incorporating various carefully crafted haywire anamolies that were featured in Dead Tech/Circuit Bending type of art gallery events, and much experience from performing with live bands or working with a wide variety of artists.

The cassette is limited to an edition of 99, across 3 different colored cassettes (solid orange, solid purple, black), with 3 different label designs, a 3 panel, two sided, full color insert, and a color transparency.  Copies of the cassette are available at Earjerk and RRRecords.  More details here http://chondriticsound.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=35266&p=358972#p358972

People that can get past their potential assumptions about the name won't likely be disappointed.  The transparencies cost a lot but it has to be that way.

 
Here is a scan of the transparencies that will go over the inserts (please pardon my dirty scanner bed, I was scanning piles of nails the other day):



I have also just found 10 more copies of the MF & Company C93 that I put with my box of empty norelcos for some reason.  $6 ppd, $3 w/ the purchase of the "333" CS.

MISTER FUCKHEAD & COMPANY

Editions:
C93
3 X C33 Cassette Album
