THE ART MUSEUMS Rough Frame LP [Woodsist (USA), 2010]
"The Art Museums tell sordid tales of artists, lovers & poseurs with cult new wave jangle. Bay Area psych burnouts, Josh Alper & Glenn Donaldson converged in San Francisco in the Summer of ‘09 to record Anglophile jams on a Tascam 388 tape machine (state of the art home-recording circa ‘85). Rough Frame is their debut LP for the Woodsist label. They would make a hi-fi studio record if they had the money, but reviewers would probably still say it was lo-fi. The Art Museums ARE into: art, poetry, WHAAM records & films about Mods…The Art Museums ARE NOT into: flared trousers, drip coffee, dirty sneakers." - Woodsist

"Judy’s Dust is the debut full-length LP by Car Commercials of New Brunswick, New Jersey. Here, the duo of David Sutton (Friends and Family, Current Amnesia, Ladderwoe) and Daniel DiMaggio (Home Blitz) expand on the rock/mumble strategies from the self-released Jar 7” (Leaf Leaf, 2006) and a couple cassettes kicked around the New Jersey underpasses. Contains twelve songs of missing spaces, too much Center Ice, drums and wires, varispeed recording techniques, and facing backwards – all from the other side of the E Street.

THE CHILD READERS Memory and Fantasy CD [Mallard Lake (SE), 2004]
"Following the fading battery of tern cries on their last record Dark Laughter, the Child Readers return with a more spacious and meditative collection of song-clouds recorded in northern California and Germany in 2003. Jason Honea (of the Knit Separates, Teenage Panzer Korps and Social Unrest) and Loren Chasse (of Thuja, the Blithe Sons, Of, Coelacanth and a host of other Jewelled Antler projects) are here improvising songs with voice, mandolin, harp, guitar, electronics, percussion, piano and monochord, once again invoking the spirits of locations and situations to lay paths for the music. Through a crude method of recording, playback and re-recording using different media ranging from mini disc, car stereo and handheld cassette recorder, to battery-powered speakers and dictaphone." - Mallard Lake Recordings

PUMICE Magnedisk Recordings of gFrenzy Songs 7" [Dirty Knobby (USA), 2009]
“It’s a pretty rugged record. 4 gFrenzy songs, I recorded it on this weird dictation machine from the 1940s. It’s like a turntable but has special flexi discs made of magnetic oxide like analogue tape and instead of a stylus the arm has a magnetic record/playback tapehead. The speed is inconsistent so it sounds wobbly too. All live all mono. Hope you like it.” - Stefan Neville

PUMICE Pumice 10" [Doubtful Sounds (FR), 2010]

"Some time ago, I got a message from Stefan Neville about this record: "I been workin on some recording for you. some dumb punk slop and some tape loop soup and a pretty love song." I couldn't describe the record better. It's maybe the end of an era for Pumice with his 8 track pushed to its maximum limits and dying soon after these recordings were finished. So the result is maybe one of the noisier Pumice records to date... with a pretty love song. Recorded in june 2009 in Sandringham, Auckland, NZ. And mixed in january 2010 at Mainz.
Black vinyl packed in black paper silkscreened by Cotoreich, with 2 postcards. Artwork by Stefan Neville. Mastering by Aigle noir. Limited to 500 copies." - Doubtful Sounds

Excellent new Pumice outing; looks & sounds great... Only a few available.

PUMICE Raft CD [Last Visible Dog (USA)/Stabbies, Etc (NZ), 2004]
"the new stfn nvlle album just arrived & is burning a hole through my life with its beautiful ragged, spacious static anthems. Music is Pumice's raft, & he's barely holding on. electric & acoustic guitar, chord organ, fuzz box vocals & a tape machine: this is the white soul music. along with that goddamn CJA IRonclad CD-R, RAFT represents the best in murky New Zealand-ish downer hymns. Inspiring." - Glenn Donaldson

Got a small batch of these from Stefan... Pumice's brilliant Raft release is now available with its(far superior) NZ art - the original vision of the presentation.

STEVEN R. SMITH Cities LP [Immune (USA), 2009]
"On his latest full-length solo release, Cities, Smith combines the composed with the improvisational and the result is a beautiful and desolate collection of songs evoking a crumbling landscape reminiscent of Cormac McCarthy’s novel “The Road” or the films of Hungarian director Béla Tarr. Cities is pressed on high quality virgin vinyl at RTI in an edition of 900 copies for the world. Included is a free MP3 download coupon." - Immune

SUNKEN Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve CD [Pseudoarcana (NZ), 2008]
"Deep in the swirling depths of the ocean a terrible yet wondrous beast stirs slow but sure amidst great forests of sea algae. Taking on the form of a pair of conjoined drown-ed sailors it sets forth upon the currents determined to loose its apocalyptic vision upon the earth via droning sea shanty and great humming hymn.
Sunken is the duo of sunken sailors Stefan Neville (Pumice) and Antony Milton (Nether Dawn/A.M etc). Using a range of organs, sonar gear, live tapeloops, vocals and an unhealthy amount of submarine reverb they create a glorious droning pop noise. 'Eye Electric Organ, Brain Electric Nerve' follows on from their acclaimed self titled debut (also on PseudoArcana) and various compilation appearances." - Pseudoarcana
