all of these tapes have been in various stages of completion for quite some time... all artists have had their copies for awhile, and some of them were available at various fests and on tours. the artists have been on since summer of last year, some from this batch and the next. i'm actually fairly low on copies of a few of these, and there were a few things that went out of print before they got posted. they will eventually be posted just to give them their proper place the annals of factotum history, er whatever... so here is the first half....

another dayton split. j.e.barajas' (foresight, authority, okto media) new project mass comm takes up where foresight left off. using only guitar as source for this recording, jeb makes it impossible to tell. a heavy dose of electronics and audio collage, transforming the original into a fast racket. on the other side, another dose of improv tape collage from developer. electronics, found sounds, field recordings and lots and lots of percussion are all on the chopping block. no sound is innocent with either of these artists.

aidsblood is dayton's no-wave sludge free improv noise rock super group. twin bass, twin drum, and a 4-stringed guitar for a heavy dose of what the fuck. public housing is cincinnati's no-fi noise rock darlings. the wasteland jazz unit sax-men on dual guitar, filled out by a drummer who plays on trash, and a lady with a table full of electronics.

two sidelong tracks of dynamic electro-acoustic works from this young mansfeild, ohio composer. processing sounds and collaging them in the most organic sounding of ways, ordinary objects become a world of mystery. super stoked to be releasing something for this guy fairly early in his career, really look foward to watching his progression from here. this sounds like early 20th century composer work, so i can only imagine where he's gonna go.

developer gives us a side long track of mixer play and tape fuckery. developer's usual brand of musique-concrete for people who can't spell bernard parmigiani. phoned nil trio, three weirdos from milwaukee that can definitely spell parmigiani, and a large number of other hard-to-spell words and phrases. peter/ neil/ and dan offer up a side of collage weirdness on par with the flip side, hope you kids like cussing!

energetic and brutal free jazz from this french trio. jean-luc guionnet - alto sax, will guthrie - drums, and clayton thomas - double bass. two scorching side long live tracks recorded in paris and lyons that seriously rip. self proclaimed minimal maximal terror jazz, and its for good reason. outside of the ames room these guys have covered everything from electro-acoustic composition and free improv to rock, and jazz composition. not to mention having worked with the likes of peter brotzmann, alex dorner, andy moor, keith rowe, philip samartzis, and jerome noetinger to name just a few.

fact061 developer / being - "split" c20 (1913vol.9)
if you had a chance to catch being live this year, you may have witnessed a version of this set. stereo static and crackle, two channels with the same set up, panned hard, then intricately tweaked with extreme precision. in the stereo spectrum even the slightest changes seem like glacial shifts to the listener on a good system. the effects of the stereo field can be felt on the flip side as well. developer delivers a miasmic sound flurry of layered harsh noise, fast paced cut ups, found sound and field recordings. "headphones for maximum psychosis."sound sample links:
being: https://soundcloud.com/developer-etc/edit-being-dvlpr-c20-factotum
co-released with inner city sound systems, 40 min of totally fucked no-wave sludge free improv noise rock. a revolving door of dayton ohio musicians and noisers- members of footbinder, drowner, vicious grave, altars, developer, skin tape, quills, and diaphragmatic have all done time, most being mainstays. two drummers, two bassist, one guitar and (though not on these recordings) one or two sax players.
ONLY ONE COPY LEFT

dayton ohio ex-pat now living amongst the glorious scumbags of chicago. two sidelong pieces using electro-acoustic and musique-concrete techniques. alexander's intricate work draws you in and reveals more and more with every listen.

very honored to be releasing a tape for mr anthony saunders, who is such a perfectionist, its hard to actually get material from him... i did a short tour with him, jason zeh and nicolas ceparski back in 2009, and thats when talks of this tape first started. this is fantastic dymanic harsh noise made using a fairly small string of effects and metal. simple set up, complex results. i am completely ok with how long it took to get this out, well worth the wait for material this good.
