Godseye and Dense Reduction. Two new tapes

As the winter slowly thaws and the local squirrels reappear in increasing numbers, we are proud to offer our first releases of 2011—two new tapes by Godseye and Dense Reduction. We also have some newly available back stock.

#1 : (Notice #14) Godseye : " No More Cake Here " (C40)

Godseye (Eden Hemming Rose, Brad Rose, and Nathan Young) has wowed us with their first two releases focused on spoken-word readings. With No More Cake Here, texts from Natalie Diaz, Edward Kuznetsov, Emma Goldman, and Seth Abramson are read over beautifully crafted synth textures. From the opening words of the title track, the intensity present in the slow, even readings and barely concealed chaos is unmistakable. Beneath wells of feedback and roiling synths, occasional bursts of light emerge on “Prison Diaries 20^th December.” “A Menace To Liberty” delivers a pointedly defiant text from Goldman, and “Gideon Asleep By The River” is contemplative and yearning, almost like a requiem, but perhaps hopeful. This tape mines beauty in the darkness lurking in all corners. Unique and very compelling.

- An edition of 100.
- Pro-dubbed, imprinted cassettes with classic Notice attire.

#2 : (Notice #7) Dense Reduction : " Shadows of Shipwrecks in Napkins on Shore " (C25)

Notice Recordings house band Dense Reduction have explored much new territory recently (mostly yet-to-be released), but they return to their signature sounds on Shadows Of Shipwrecks In Napkins on Shore. The A-side delivers their unique brand of texture and energy, shifting through AM radio, synthesizer squeals, looped bells and Theremin, and no-input mixing. The B-side shows off the extremes of Dense Reduction, building from a quiet, ambiguous synth figure to a wave of noise that simmers, lying in wait until the very last seconds. Recorded almost one year ago, and initially slated for release in 2010, Shadows of Shipwrecks can now be seen as a summation of Dense Reduction’s early-period work.

Update : Godseye, Organ of Species

In the works are two tapes by Brad Rose and Eden Hemming's Godseye project, and Scott "Cloud" Johnson's new alias Organ of Species. These should hopefully be available by the end of the year.

(Notice #14) : Godseye - "No More Cake Here" (C40)

(Notice #15) : Organ of Species - "Random Selection" (C30)

We also just noticed that Tomentosa has copies of Evan Lindorff-Ellery's tape "Conflicts and Interrelationships" (NTR002). This is sold out at Discriminate Music, and we don't have any copies left. So they're the last ones.

Look for more Lindorff-Ellery, on a forthcoming project with Travis Bird, featuring solo works, and on the solo tape "The Tea Merchant and His Atmospheres".

Here is a preview of the Godseye tape, as posted on Foxy Digitalis / Peyote Tapes :

We now have distribution through Discriminate Music. They do a fine job of clearly laying everything out, with sound samples, artwork and descriptions. Very nice indeed.
Please get in touch with them.

We've been working on tapes by The North Sea and Tärr.

They should be ready within a month.



Brad Rose of The North Sea and Eden Hemming Rose will be playing a show in Chicago as ALTAR EAGLE, at Enemy on May 7th. We are hoping to have the tape ready by then. That would be most functional. The tape is called "Relinquished Sparks". It's a sparse and elegant excursion for the project, yet maintains a great amount of intensity. We're extremely honoured to be working on it with him, and everything is turning out really well. The artwork is still a product of E. Lindorff @ Notice Rec. Corp., but this time on the darker side.


Also playing this gig will be Caboladies and Zelienople. All these guys put on absurdly good shows. Highly recommended.


Other information regarding this and other projects, including the Tärr release, is forthcoming.

ALL tapes are still available. Please be in touch.


Happy Spring to you all.
