two side-long tracks from these two synth&guitar duos. "authorized maps" finds grant and rachel evans embarking on a journey with a gentle wind guiding them through an open landscape. tranquil guitar lines float in the breeze as a steady synthetic ambience is conjured from the sky. with "data phase; pardon granted" ryan connolly and nick maturo plot an escape route after finding themselves transfixed in a whirlpool of filtered sound. the switch is flipped and beams of light refract endlessly. pro-duplicated, edition of 50.
the thirty-third release on fadeaway tapes brings together four guitar-centered projects. scott johnson, recording as thoughts on air, moves from abstracted shards of six-string to a beautiful and moving strummed melody that is all spirit and soul. francesco de gallo's fallen axe offers some deliciously woozy guitar improvisations recorded in an air-tight padded room. mike pouw delivers two new tracks as knit prism, which utilize the warmth of cassette to create a filtered and sun-bleached ribbon of sound stretching to the horizon. five simple and cyclical tracks of heavily delayed guitar are strung together by ryan connolly, as trailing, to create a suite of peaceful reflection. pro-duplicated, edition of 50.
