Last weeks Spool's Out Radio show is a sublime hour of tape manipulation ambience and other noise..

This from m/cloud page..
This week's episode focuses on artists utilising tape manipulations to make the music itself - including tape loops, grainy magnetic tape decay sounds, tape montage, time-stretching, physical interjections, and live sampling.

Been enjoying this wee beauty of late... it's from 2014 but that doesn't matter...

A Course In The Theory Of Drones by Percival Pembroke

This from the b/camp page..
a comprehensive introduction to modern ambient / drone theory with an emphasis on tape degradation and memory loss, suited to complement a first-year undergraduate course

Tasty short but sweet collection and it's pwyw @ https://percivalpembroke.bandcamp.com/a ... -of-drones

I like Percival Pembroke and this is a neat album. Good to see this thread resurrected; I'd quite forgotten it was here and I listen to loads of ambient tunes.

Giusto Pio - Motore Immobile was reissued as a new Cinedelic imprint 'Soave'

I just listened to this all the way through. Lovely stuff, really.

Inoyama land - danzindan pojidon

https://www.discogs.com/Inoyama-Land-Da ... se/2232977


Features a crazy geological based track listing and cool DIY water delay system illustrated in the liner notes. Chill stuff

So this is the tracklisting, also only just realised there's a picture of a turtle on the cover :)

This looks very interesting, Dollar.And I've never heard of it. Homework!

@mateo There are rips out there, I have one if you need, bit crackly though, not from my vinyl :).
if you like it also look into 'testpattern', or 'interior' on the yen label.

Will do, Dollar. Will Do. I'm familiar with Interior's s/t album. It's actually been on my want list for a while now, but the others are new to me.

@Mateo

Hope you enjoy what you find. Be aware the interior lp on yen has a different selection of songs to the one on Wyndham hill. The yen 'manifold' comp is supposed to be good also, always out of my price range though :P.

Well, good spotting that, Dollar. It looks like all the songs are different lengths and some have different names. I wonder if they are different recordings entirely. And, yes, Yen Manifold is out of my price range, too.

@Mateo

Bizarrely I got both issues in the same auction and Yes, there are a couple of songs different on each lp.

Wild. Do you have a preference?

As it stands the yen version, although I've not given the Wyndham hill version a proper listen. Also the sleeve art on the yen lp is much better.
Discogs and youtube may cover these differences.

^ Thanks for the heads up on that.

These two wee releases from Norah Lorway are worth a tickle..
https://xylemrecords.bandcamp.com/album/drone-b-lge and her new one https://xylemrecords.bandcamp.com/album/drone-b-lge-ii

Has anyone received Midori Takada's Looking Glass on WRWTFWW yet? I'm curious as to how it sounds. Y'know, the usual.

45rpm is a+

Can second that.

Thanks, lads. Anyone tried the 33?

I have the CD but this has been released on vinyl, ambient electronica from the great Susumu Yokota.
Sakura - Susumu Yokota 2000

Yokota is one of my favorites and this album in particular is a true stand out.

This is a fine way to spend a couple of hours or so.. all sets from the Ambient Électronique (8 July 2017) night .
