FTR 822LP
|
Co-Release with Cardinal Fuzz/Rooster Rock. A unique bespoke outer sleeve. Cardinal Fuzz and Feeding Tube Records, both seasoned navigators of the deep zone, present two new kandodo albums -- Solstice/Dub and Dusk/Dawn (FTR 823LP). Two records orbiting one deep pulse, each presented in a unique bespoke deluxe screen-printed outer sleeve finish. Includes download for full pelagic bliss. From the psychedelic shack in Northumberland, Simon Price (kandodo) has spent two years coaxing these sounds into being, eighty minutes, four sides, each a branch reaching out from the same shimmering sonic tree. A slow unfurling of heady drift and cosmic fuzz, the sound bending like light across the equinox, refracted through delays, flanges and fuzz until it folds in on itself. Hugo Morgan (The Heads) joins on low-end duties, sending tremors through the deep ether where the basslines anchor the drift, turning the horizon to liquid and the floor to vibration Four longform trips, each a 20-minute drift through the same solar pulse seen from different angles, all refracted through a sike sonic toolbox. A headphone treat at 20,000 feet or cranked loud on the stereo. They're glimmering portals, longform meditations, head-expanding drift zones to lose yourself in, built for the hour when everything dissolves, preferably at 2AM, lights low, synapses wide open, the turntable spinning like a slow planet. Each side a transmission that captures the same essence but from a different vantage point. "Solstice" brings the march of fuzz, tremeloes pulling you under. The dub burns with the bright hum of eternal noons and shards of phased harmonics. Dubbed, delayed, distorted, this is kandodo in full expansion mode, an anural equinox, a sonic solstice, a total double dissolver. One pulse, four horizons, infinite zones. Drop the needle, watch time blur and dive deep. See you on the other side.

"Dawn" lets slip earthly bounds and shimmers into deep space, going beyond beyond.

"The Heads' Simon Price returns to his Kandodo project with theendisinpsych. theendisinpsych is the follow up to Price's 2019 collaboration with Wayne Maskell and Hugo Morgan, Kandodo 3 (K3), but this time back in solo-mode. He is now relocated in Northumbria, and has recorded the album himself in his home studio, drawing on his wide collection of music/instruments and the rural environment for inspiration. The new album fizzes and crackles with a verve that will activate the 'turn on, tune in, drop out' sense in all listeners. Known as the singer/guitarist of The Heads, Price was raised in Zambia and Malawi, which left an indelible mark on him personally, and is manifest in the song titles, artwork, and name of the project. The influence is less obvious on his instrumental music, but Simon says that if there were lyrics, they'd be about animist religions, hyenas, sharks and dusty drives. Named after a Malawian supermarket that he used to shop in back in the late '80s, the album contains mini-sonic soundscapes that start firmly grounded and then go off into the deepest reaches of space. Along the way, Simon touches on influences as diverse as Kraftwerk, Neu!, Eno, Morricone, Stooges, Loop, and Spacemen 3. Kandodo is for Price an exploration of tones, chords, and textures that evoke a very particular emotional response, a sense of yearning. These instrumental pieces are lyrical and evocative soundtracks with an elongated and elegant song structure. Describing them himself as 'fuzzy lullabies,' Simon's pieces undulate as delicate layers are built and removed, easing the listener along a thread of melodies. This is immersive music meant to be listened to at a loud volume or in the space between headphones."
