Introducing Translinguistic Other Recordings
Regular readers will recall that I recently celebrated the one-year anniversary of this blog. Tomorrow, Friday Nov. 13 2009, will mark the beginning of Phase 2 of Translinguistic Other. With the release of two CDs by Midday Veil, good ol’ TLO just became a record label. Additional physical publishing projects shall be forthcoming.
[TLO01] Midday Veil: Queen of the Void
A pagan rock mini-epic unfolding over two expansive tracks recorded by Midday Veil at the Josephine in May 2009. Mixed and mastered by Mell Dettmer at Aleph Studios. Edition of 300 with handmade screenprinted covers.
[TLO02] Midday Veil: Subterranean Ritual
Improvised material channeled from the cosmic beyond in September 2009. Mastered by Mell Dettmer. Edition of 300 with handmade screenprinted covers.
For now, both releases are available exclusively through Dissonant Plane and Wall of Sound in Seattle, or through the band at shows. When we get back from tour, we’ll work on getting wider distribution…first thing’s first!
Tomorrow Midday Veil embarks on a seven-date west coast tour with Bay Area solo artist Janina Angel Bath, who is touring in support of her new record Gypsy Woman on Prophase Music. Full info and tour dates listed below.
