DNT 3" Split Series (First two are out now!!)

dntrecords · 02.05.2007, 04:58 PM

DNT 3" Split Series
Each month a new 3" cdr will arrive in the mail, featuring 10 minutes of exclusive material from two bands, for 9 months. (That's 18 bands) No other distros or stores will have copies, and so the only way to get these is to subscribe to the series. (The band's will have copies, though)

The cost is $35 in the US/Canada and $50 internationally. (To cut down on shipping costs for international subscribers, you will receive a package every 3 months unless an order is made in between in which case I'll toss them in). Slots are filling up fast, so don't wait too long! Paypal to: dntrecords@dntrecords.com The full line-up is:
Upsilon Acrux
My Little Red Toe
Leviathans
Twin Crystals
Tent City (members of soft shoulder)
Silver Daggers
Night Wounds
Shearing Pinx
Tunnels
Bird Costumes
Horse Head
Shepherds (members of woods, meneguar)
Color Wheel (members of abe vigoda and mika miko)
Haunted Castle
KK Rampage
Meadow Argus
Monitors
Acre
16 Bitch Pile-Up

January: Tunnels/Bird Costumes
"The pairing of Bird Costumes and Tunnels has proven quite apt: sharing a common backyard in sunny Portland, Oregon, the two artists also share a similar ominous, human-absent approach to composition - though from opposite sides of the spectrum, with Bird Costumes taking a more mechanical approach to compliment Tunnels’ more textural drones. Stepping up for tracks one and two, Bird Costumes (Daniel Osborne) begins his half of the split with metered strafes of what sound like strings played beyond the fret-board or from within a piano; sparks of high-vibration which evoke the New antics Cowell or Partch. Natural-harmonic tones emerge from behind these pulses of sound, gaining in volume with each release until they fill both channels with a torrent of skillfully layered distortion. Track two is another exercise in guitar virtuosity, this time over a canvas of hand-muted guitar, with noodles and slides layered vertically in various states of distortion. At five and three minutes, these two tracks work well on their own as sketches, but could do equally well as seeds for larger movements. Tunnels (Nicholas Samuel Bindeman) takes to task the last track: at 10 1/2 minutes, the untitled piece (all three tracks are suitably untitled) oscillates quickly in a cresting mid-range helicopter drone, behind which tonal drones glint and shift with a rare narrative quality found only in the works of masters like Stars of the Lid. All three tracks are brilliant, well-executed, and far larger than this tiny disc would elude." (review by Animal Psi)

February: Acre/Haunted Castle
This month's 3" picks up right where last month's left off. Acre are from Portland, OR (don't worry, the rest of the series is much more spread out geographically) and play minimalistic-drone...good stuff. Haunted Castle, who have a lot of awesome records coming out soon. They're also sort of drone-y, but much more abrasive. Enjoy!
