Pierrot Lunaire- Theme for Ascension and Eternal Love

Pierrot Lunaire- Theme for Ascension and Eternal Love (HIV104)

Since we first introduced Pierrot Lunaire to the world, via his mind-altering masterpiece debut, Turn Back the Hands of Time, we felt it was only right to release his first work on vinyl as well. More of a miniature album than a single, this 7” is the total manifestation of Pierrot. Leading off with a sidelong sax and electronics slow burner, Lunaire guides you gently down the rabbit hole as disembodied vocals and junk oscillations begin to soar and collide around you like psilocybic fireworks. On the B side, we’re guided through a labyrinthian tapestry of cut-up waltzes and ballads. All the while, Lunaire croons maniacally; a mythic cosmic joker.

Pierrot Lunaire- Hypnotique (excerpt) by Hooker Vision

Brainworlds/Expo '70- Abnormal Vergence split (HIV097)

Brainworlds and Expo ’70 are two of the longest running sources of inspiration around Evans headquarters and it goes without saying that we’re beyond flattered to be able to release this epic pairing of the two. Taken from a live performance in Atlanta, Georgia (of which we were in attendance), these side-long improvisations are perfect examples of two absolute jammers doing what they do best.

Embracing the next cycle, the cycle of the human being, Mohave Triangles soars with the knowledge of the elders.

Nova Scotian Arms- Winds Over Silmäterä (HIV099)

After the cathartic recording process of Nova Scotian Arms’ debut LP, the slow moving drones of this double tape feel like the calm after the storm. Rhodes, chord organ, and synthesizer, recorded to tapes and tape loops are delicately arranged into over an hour and a half of sleepy nostalgia.

Rambutan- Partial Wires (HIV101)

Geoffrey Sexton- Night CIty Undertow (HIV103)

As a filmmaker and member of Tennessee weirdo collective, Horsehair Everywhere, Geoffrey Sexton has honed his ability to craft stirring environments, often unsettling in their dissonance yet warm and welcoming as they slowly reveal themselves to you.

Nova Scotian Arms/Motion Sickness of Time Travel- The Fire Cult to Your Dream Child (HIV064)

"I saw an exceedingly high Wheel, which was not before my eyes, nor behind me, nor to the sides, but every place at one time. That Wheel was made of water, but also of fire, and it was (although the edge could be seen) infinite. Interlinked, all things that are, were and shall be formed it, and I was one of the fibers of that total fabric and Pedro de Alvarado who tortured me was another. There lay revealed the causes and the effects and it sufficed me to see that Wheel in order to understand it all, without end. O bliss of understanding, greater than the bliss of imagining or feeling. I saw the universe and I saw the intimate designs of the universe. I saw the origins narrated in the Book of the Common. I saw the mountains that rose out of the water, I saw the first men of wood, the cisterns that turned against the men, the dogs that ravaged their faces. I saw the faceless god concealed behind the other gods. I saw infinite processes that formed one single felicity and, understanding all, I was able also to understand the script of the tiger."

Grant (Nova Scotian Arms) and Rachel (Motion Sickness of Time Travel) Evans beckon the poison of summer with a slow hymn to the passing into autumn. Like echoed spores frozen in locked calm, the unmasked waves of tree lines coil dunes from pillows of chemicals. Lost in a cool haze of nostalgia, couples nestle in hillside splendor as the world below gurgles bemusedly. One final gesture to the perfume of brightness. Hillside (excerpt) by Quiet Evenings

3" CD-R with gold paint running water. Full color art by Grant Evans. Numbered edition of 25.

Motion Sickness of Time Travel- The Sound of Reality Dissolving (HIV055)

The sound of reality dissolving is the sound of rusty magnets excavating ragged spools of tape through miles of thunderous wind. Flowers dissolving. Flower reparation came about. Reverb choked landscapes dot the horizon of the weary traveller. Bundled ambient inside the controls waits the voice of whole waves, announcing electricity through afternoon rains. Telegraph signals processing hidden glass crescendos underground. Fade out. Dissolve.

Absolute Pigment by Motion Sickness of Time Travel

SOLD OUT. THANKS.

Nova Scotian Arms- Translations (HIV056)

Unnatural patterns spoken from cursed millions through muscle memory. Previously cancelled languages drift overhead. Tape distortion burns, like molten lo-fidelity, cause flights of illusion. The source of the words, an endless loop of caustic climate and the shards of infinite tongues weaving billowing phases in reverse. Stereo translations originate within the sacred headphone awareness of the sea.

Translations (excerpt) by Nova Scotian Arms

$4. Edition of 15.

Ossining- Agitate the Gravel (HIV057)

Kevin Danchisko (Sovetskaya Gone) and Brad Rose (The North Sea) create tone chasms of separation that spill through walls of blurred vision. Isolated outflow: pure, undefined. Minerals reach the surface as crystallization marked phantom keys. The sprawl of haunted delay. The material of dream photography. The gravel underfoot is bleak from continuous frost. Synthetic weeds struggle to clamber through the cracks like dusty light melodies escaping through slits of shiftless cabin windows in glorious fall.

Agitate the Gravel (excerpt) by Ossining

$4. Edition of 25.

SOLD OUT. THANKS.

Quiet Evenings- The Sun Scorched the Yellow Grass (HIV058)

Audio transmissions intercepted as artifacts of ancestricide. Scrapes of glistening resonance refract into beams of marrow and sinew. Fibrous lenses recreate the sensation of color: a paranormal form of feedback based on circulatory phenomena. Veins appear as mandalas constructed by ancient astronauts in an attempt to commune with mathematics outside curved space. Pre-dimensional exercises reflect the acoustic essence of lucid broadcasting.

Blood Fractals by Quiet Evenings

$4. Edition of 15.

Hooker Vision: Phase Two.

2010-07-24T10:10:00.006-04:00

Brothers and sisters, it fills us with deep joy to announce the coming of a new age for The Burning Hooker Vision in Eternity Family.
For starters, we will now be releasing some recordings on the infinitely circular format of 3" CD-Rs. Remember, these things only play in tray-loading compact disc players! Don't try to slide one in your Macbook... The first batch will include new bangers from Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Nova Scotian Arms, Ossining(!!!), and Quiet Evenings. These should be ready by Monday (July 26).
Fear not, we'll still be putting out cassettes too. Some heavy jams are planned for the near future...
One thing we won't be doing any longer is posting download-only albums. While we cherish their memories and will always have a special place in our hearts for them, they have become more of a burden than a blessing. That being said, once physical copies sell out, we might post download links then... Who knows???

As always, thank you for everything.

Grant and Rachel

What becomes of the forgotten whales, the fish, the sponges and starfish. Where do they all go when they die? Underwater trumpets surround you, their glorious ring muffled by water... You are still stuck asking questions and feeling uncertain..."

Quiet Evenings- The Soma Mandala EP (HIV027)

1. Earthly Vapours and Witches

"It was raining for days and the songs grew like mushrooms." Lurking within the ruins of ancient folklore and esoteric mycology, a tape recorder captured two rain storms and two rituals of stone age poisoning. Holy is the withdrawal after Soma, which is the Vedic hallucinogen related to qannabbôs and, from time to time, electricity.
