"Final in the trilogy of cassettes on Ekhein by the duo of Alex Twomey (Mirror To Mirror) and Matthew Sullivan (Earn). Two side-long pieces influenced by the final days of Michael Jackson and the undeniable impact made the afternoon of his passing. Songs for the helicopter ride from the UCLA to USC medical centers. Dedicated to Michael Jackson. 1958-2009. Upcoming releases on Arbor and Amethyst Sunset."

"Recorded in Los Angeles while living in a tent with a broken body and mind. These recordings illustrate the paranoia, desperation and eventual acceptance I experienced at the end of this winter. In a way, the soundtrack to being locked inside myself and finding a way out before it was too late. Shifting between some of the darkest and brightest. There really are endless possibilities waiting to find you at every moment. Upcoming releases on Arbor, Monorail, and Root Strata."

"A collection of grieving cycles from Jon Borges (Pedestrian Deposit, Emaciator, Monorial Trespassing Label). Through use of very simple and to-the-point cassette loops, Borges conveys someone coming to a conclusion on this release. There is always a lesson to be learned. First solo works in quite some time.

"Two ambient miniatures from former Iowa City/current Portland, Oregon resident Evan Miller. Never one to be pigeonholed, Millers displays his talent for bright, romantic guitar and organ work on this release while maintaining that same personality that comes through on all of his work over the years. A shot of color."

"Synthetic stereo confusion from Jeff Witscher. Swirling layers of synthesizer, obscured voice and drum machine inviting the participant down the wormhole to stay. Material placed somewhere between the progression following the recordings for the "Porcelain Opera" LP on Type and the "Baroque Arcade" cassette on Night People. Featuring a Baronic Wall cover."

"New York's Jonas Asher (Grasslung/Phaserprone Label) going into warmer territory on his debut cassette under the moniker of Antiquity. A very vivid picture painted throughout this suite of desolate melodies. With use of synthesizer, field recordings, organ, and electronics Asher has managed to create a recording that truly holds some unspoken weight behind it and hopefully, a glimpse at whats to come from a true perfectionist."
