I Am Terribly Awake

Salmon-Chanted Evening

c60 - Produbbed

A total 'twofer. Exceptional work from both artists, complementing and completing eachother's music. Stew's work mirrors the sound of plants digesting magnetic tape, only to be sewn back together by your Gamma. And if U.H.'s side represents the deep soil, then Old Softy's sound is ringing in the wind, floating by the moon. Each tape was housed in a one of a kind collage.

Island's Eyelids

Eyeland's I

c56 – Produbbed

Rover's first dip into the East coast, mailed in from an old high school friend. Island's Eyelids (Josiah Wolfson), somehow managed to capture the sounds of New York sewers and Central Park joggers and blast them both into the stars. First time I heard this tape I was walking, by the end of it I was running.

Sideways Hole

CD-r

The third installment of our live recording series is our favorite release (and our most effortless). In Summer of 2009 we (along with pal, Alex Gray) brought our instruments into a concrete tunnel way out under the 7/11 in Goleta. We kept the songs smooth and controlled and relied heavily on the reverb of the tunnel to define to the recording. A big nod to the Jeweled Antler Collective. Download and go to sleep to it.

Mr. Tower's Dead Trophy

LP+DVD / CD-r

A strong collective effort and venture into the vinyl format (thanks for our pals at Dog Family Records). Mr. Tower's Dead Trophy is a collection of songs written by Dave McPeters and Stewart Adams. Recorded in their hometown of Goleta, California, the album is honest and low-key, reflecting the boy's love of simple and sentimental music. Recorded by Sean McCann who provides additional assistance on drums, violin and keyboard throughout the album. 
This is the weeper music of Summer afternoons spent kissing dogs, hucking rocks into creeks, and jamming sticks down snake-holes. Cover artwork by Lorien Stern. 100 collage covers were assembled for HM's Summer 2010 US Tour.

The Dairy Belle

c46 – Pro-dubbed

Second full-length album from Stewart Adams. A strong evolution from his first tape The Faith Of The Family. Highlights Adams' ability to bridge the gap between tape-manipulation, drone-work, and rock songs, this tape has little regard for genre. Taken from 4-track recordings from over a period of two years. Big fold out double-sided artwork from Lorien Stern.
