Dragon Fagot and thee Crystal Skulls in Tibet – Elegant Empowerment – Earjerk 043

Advancing guitar technology hundreds of years by stumbling across time, Dragon Fagot and thee Crystal Skulls in Tibet return to the present and reinvent the Spaghetti Western soundtrack with their Ultimate Guitar™! And that’s just on side A. The flip is a blown out trip and is sure to be delayed! Limited to 45 copies.



Datashock - taramöpskäsefuss – Earjerk 042

We have here two slippery live tracks, "Müff-Busters" and "Wann könnte man denn noch was zu kiffen bekommen?", both recorded live on the 19th of March, 2010 at the K4 Student Club in Nürnberg, Germany . This tape will glide you through enough varied terrain to leave you confounded. And, as any good free jam should, it will reveal it's secrets over a span of time. Offering up something new with each listen. 99 copies.



Przewalski's Horses - Looking for the Middle of the Night – Earjerk 041

This may tell a story but the narrator is completely drunk and hard to understand. What you can discern from his ramblings is interesting, so you decide to stay for a bit. It seems like a great idea until he starts crying in his beer. You wish there was something more to drink, maybe get more on his level, as he continues on with his story, becoming louder and more belligerent. The narrative becomes even more abstract. Now you wish you would have left when you had the chance. Screaming, yelling, howling, crying, swinging at shadows. Ghosts. You take the opportunity to slip out the door. Hand painted cassettes. 45 copies.




Troy Schafer – Anubis Come In – Earjerk 039

“Increase, oh Light! Increase!” A little black tape to enchant all and correct souls at the same time. Violin, harp, and voice wrestle with analog tape wizardry in this audio tale of possession, release and the healing Light. Intense vibes all around. 99 copies.




Przewalski's Horses – Day / Night (2x3" cdr) – Earjerk 040 / Object 044

Beautiful field recordings from a favorite haunt. Specifically, a burnt out factory district where PH loves to escape from the real. Released previously in an insanely limited edition and given away mostly to friends and fans. Offered here on two 3"cdr's, to be played simultaneously in random combinations. Word to Eliane Radigue! The cdr's are housed in slipcases and tucked inside a decorated envelope with a numbered bamboo piece. The first 23 copies are on hand painted discs and are available from the artists. 45 copies.

And a new cassette on object tapes! The Tomb - Tomb for the Blues - cassette - (object tapes) - OBC-045

A bit of History. A day in the life of The Tomb. 2310 Pennsylvania Avenue was a fully functioning music production studio (sans clients), an artists space, a club house, a larping center, crust punk dive, hobo retreat, place of worship, cat clinic, community scapegoat, cult, smoking den and home to so many weirdos you just can't count 'em. R.I.P.. On this tape you will hear 24 hours of live Tomb action recorded on 02/05/05, and skillfully smashed onto a 20 minute tape. Enjoy. 23 copies.
