Just announcing two new releases at my label, for those interested.
SSR is happy to bring you David Tagg's debut full-length recording, No One Came Out Last Night. Culled from several cassette tapes of live shows David performed years ago, then broken down into several loops to be reassembled into swelling, tonal drones that mark the definitive beginning of David's musical oeuvre. Packaged in a unique sleeve made of soft canvas with two beautiful photographs taken by David printed on each side. Memorial hymns of the past broadcast through dusty speakers in a dusty room. This is a landmark.
Deserted Lifeboats is the fourth chapter in the ongoing 21MG Series, this time a collapsed melancholy of stranded feedback, muffled through waves and wind on a bleak, open sea. Brian Grainger continues to mangle his guitar into unintelligible poems of solitude.
"No One Came Out Last Night" is the best thing i've heard by David so far. the packaging is pretty serious, too. this is a truly amazing release from a truly amazing label.
i don't believe i've heard Deserted Lifeboats yet, but i know it's quality if it's on Second Sun.
Thanks guys, that means alot to both me and David. I personally think Dave is one of many unnoticed amazing ambient producers, and it's just a matter of time until people start to catch on to what he's doing.
