S. Glass, Grudgery of Drucks
c36 released by No Rent
Ecstatic turntable repetition and cassette manipulation in haunted, hypnotized unity. A sleepwalker in motion, sound moves unconsciously. Voices from religious sermons, self-help and philosophy tapes blend with junk pop culture, manipulated field recordings and internet bullshit (the new AM radio). A sleepwalker in motion, sound moves without adherence to genre orthodoxies. Seeking and finding in the grand tradition. Fucking experimental. Edition of 100

S. Glass, The New Basics Cookbook
CDR coming in May on l’Esprit de l’Escalier.
An hour-plus of sound collages and soundtracks for counting broken four-tracks during a mud-wrestle against insomnia. Highlights include: “Without Incident” — location recordings from Japan; “Swamp Yankee Eulogy,” a deconstructed version of which was presented at Polaris in Toyko opening for Bruce Russell and Keiji Haino; and a cover of the Sun City Girls track “Torch of the Mystics,” penned by Charles Gocher.
S. Glass, Housing Concrète
CDR coming in May on l’Esprit de l’Escalier.
Four Ubu-friendly sound collages scraped into shape by lenient sentencing, including a tape piece created for Kryssi B’s Open Field show on WXOJ.
S. Glass, Stock Footage
CDR coming in May on l’Esprit de l’Escalier.
Incoherent disaster or a gaudy monstrosity? A real debate-starter, this. Includes “An Invitation To The Waltz Contains Sinister Motive,” a tape piece for Kirby Bell’s Field Day For The Sundays show on WKDU, plus four tracks glowing with more psychotic brightness than the LED headlights of oncoming traffic. Loops, cuts, field recordings, sounds appropriated from fails videos, voices forcibly relocated from their ancestral homelands on cassette in the bins of thrift stores. 59 minutes.
S. Glass, Benign Neglect
CD coming in June on Public Eyesore
