New Release: Rovellasca 'Delirium, Or Sonata' (CVC017) Limited Edition Cassette & Digital Download

 

Rovellasca
Delirium, Or Sonata
(CVC017)
Limited Edition of 50 cassettes & digital download




Crow Versus Crow is honoured to present Delirium, Or Sonata, a new body of recordings from Rovellasca, alias of Gateshead (UK) - based interdisciplinary artist Craig Stewart Johnson.

Following releases on such excellent labels as Matching Head, Kirigirisu Recordings, and Aetheric Records, along with his own peerless Invisible City label, Delirium, Or Sonata expands upon Johnson’s sculptural use of sound to explore emotional resonance within delicately constructed monolithic palimpsests.

Uncanny evocations swell from crumbling tape loops. Light and dust. Part and whole. Peripheral hums of industrialia. Entropy. Flux.

I'm keeping the word waxin' deliberately brief on this one in order to not condition a listeners experience - such is my belief in the potential of this record to affect. Slip on your headphones. Sit. Listen long. Sink.

Delirium, Or Sonata is released as a limited edition of 50 hand-numbered, professionally dubbed cassettes and digital download. The physical version is professionally-dubbed on an ice white translucent shell cassette, with on-body printed artwork, in an edition of 50 copies. Full-colour printed heavyweight j-card, housed in a standard white-backed cassette case. Each copy is individually hand-numbered. Artwork by Crow Versus Crow and Craig Stewart Johnson.

Cassette £6
The digital download is available on a 'Name Your Price' basis. If you would like the record but can't afford to pay for it, then please help yourself to it without charge. Otherwise, please pay what you can, or what you think is appropriate, and know that all proceeds go directly in to producing future Crow Versus Crow releases.
