COMES WITH A PRINTED INNER DISCO SLEEVE HOUSED IN A CHARMING REVERSE BOARD SLEEVE. EDITION OF 250 COPIES. First recorded collaboration between MP Hopkins and Mark Harwood (also known as Astor). The deal with Disfigured with Abbreviations was that recordings were made and then layered with little (initial) regard for how they might mix, meaning a fairly heady brew of murky cassette, mumbled words, field recordings and lo-fi electronics for the listener to try and make sense of. https://www.normanrecords.com/records/172970 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 37 AREK GULBENKOGLU : A GIFT LIKE A HOLLOW VESSEL LP 10.2018 1. A gift like a hollow vessel 19:24 2. A gift like a hollow vessel 16:05 MASTERED BY GIUSEPPE IELASI. ARTWORK BY MATTHEW REVERT. EDITION OF 250 COPIES. Penultimate Press presents another piece of unpredictable musique concrete from Melbourne’s Arek Gulbenkoglu, this time mastered by Guiseppi Ielasi. A gift like a hollow vessel comes one year after Three Days Afterwards and finds Arek with an unlikely assembly of manipulated elements - voice and body, text-to-speech Esperanto, animal noises and haunting electronics to name a few. https://www.normanrecords.com/records/172971 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 38 FRANCIS PLANGE MOSS TRUMPET LP 10.2018 1. First Part (Second Part) 16:02 2. Second Part (First Part) 16:39 ARTWORK BY JOHN NIXON. MASTERED BY JOE TALIA. LIMITED EDITION OF 250 COPIES. Aside from inducing a pleasant image and being a delightful pairing of words, “moss trumpet” rather well describes much of the beguiling, timeless-sounding material of this release by genredextrous Melbourne artist Francis Plagne. Haunting, droning brass finds itself accompanied by all sorts of soft, ruffled textures: field recordings, paper, drums, as well as various other instruments. https://www.normanrecords.com/records/172972 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 40 PIOUS FAULTS OLD THREAD LP 09.2019 A1?

Nominally occupying the much-respected ‘rock’ category, this trio make music far too chaotic, complex and humorous to really fit comfortably anywhere. https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=176557 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 42 SHOLTO DOBIE & MARK HARWOOD : THE BLUE HORSE CD 05.2019 01.

'A Sunset For Walter' is music without beginning, or end, or development, in which the lack of obvious structural divisions creates something like an endless present. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 44 PANCRACE THE FLUID HAMMER 2LP 10.2019 The 2019 full-length by this experimental quartet from France, issued on DOUBLE-LP! The approach of Pancrace is based on the physicality of sound, a choice of specific tone qualities within a given spatial contextual awareness. Therefore the manufacturing and usage of the musical instrument are constantly reassessed. Consequently, playing with the mechanical aspect of the instruments is central to Pancrace's musical approach and narrative. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 45 TRIPLE NEGATIVE : GOD BLESS THE DEATH DRIVE LP 04.2020 1.

Untitled 09:04 Limited edition on clear vinyl in a screen printed wrap around sleeve in an edition of 300 copies. An off-shoot of London-based experimental outfit Mosquitoes, Komare sees two-thirds of that band (Dominic Goodman and Peter Blundell) take a more electronic, no-wave influenced exploration of the same kind of territory on The Sense of Hearing. Following a self-titled cassette-only release and a 7” single over the last couple of years, it’s a heady and lysergic listening experience. https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=182373 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 47 MARK HARWOOD : A Perfect Punctual Paradise Under My LP 08.2020 Own Name A limited edition vinyl release for A Perfect Punctual Paradise Under My Own Name, a compelling and unnerving new album from Penultimate Press label head Mark Harwood (also known as Astor). Depicting a mid-life crisis and a loss of identity and soul, it’s described by his erstwhile collaborator Graham Lambkin as a “two part audio drama”. https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=182374 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 48 MATHS BALANCE VOLUMES A YEAR CLOSER LP 11.2020 PP 48 MATHS BALANCE VOLUMES A YEAR CLOSER DL 11.2020 1.

Over The Hill 06:23 Preoccupied with themes of death and decay, and similarly gloomy in musical terms, ‘A Year Closer’ is the grimly appropriate soundtrack to the pandemic-addled times of its release by Minnesota-based veterans Maths Balance Volumes. On this record the band take their loosely folk-based tape collage aesthetic to glorious new heights. https://www.normanrecords.com/press/index.php?item_id=184171 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 49 TIM GOSS AFTERFLY LP 01.2022 1.

Edition of 300 copies, conming with a booklet with a story to be read alongside 'Fly IV'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 50 MARK HARWOOD OFFERING LP 02.2022 'Offering' is Mark Harwood's second LP and is an album of songs about geography and placement and the way people choose to move across the surface of our planet. His simple tools of acoustic guitar, voice, tapes and bric-a-brac give Mark the freedom and clarity of vision to offer hope in song to those who choose to hear him. 'Offering' is more than we deserve in these lousy times - it is calm and it is forgiving, but it is also sharp and can cut. It is wise and all-inclusive but 'Offering' is never blind and sees the world as truth, as if on a TV screen. Recorded in Berlin 2021 and mixed/edited in London by Graham Lambkin, Offering is only that, but it asks to be accepted. Limited to 300 copies. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 51 SMALL CRUEL PARTY E VAGO FIOR DEL TEMPO LP 12.2021 The four pieces on this record all date from the late 1980s and predate any officially released material: 'Cords' was entirely realised in Chicago, and the others realised, or at least finished, upon arriving in Seattle in 1990. The pieces were originally privately released on cassette in micro-editions of 5 to 7 copies and given to friends. In 2009/2010 Petri Supplies, which had a complete set of those early privately released tapes, re-released some of that material (including these four pieces) in small-run bootleg cassette editions. Limited to 150 copies. 120# cover, Neenah, Bright White, Eggshell (finish) 1 color letterpress printing. Printed by hand on a Vandercook Universal I printing press in Brooklyn, NY. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PP 052 KOREA UNDOK GROUP SENESCENCE CD 03.2022 PP 052 KOREA UNDOK GROUP SENESCENCE DL 03.2022 1.
