Dense, dense, and full range harsh sounds here. No more amatuerish twiddling, just dense, sharp, and peircing 6 minute pieces on this release. In my opinion this tape start your experience with the harsher side of this project.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;"&gt;CAUCHY RIEMANN AND PEASANT GRAVES (COLLABORATION)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;WITHOUT HOPE OR CAUSE C20 (ltd 50)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_RLA7n9AcU_A/R8RJ1xosSDI/AAAAAAAAADI/kh-VAmhG8dI/s1600-h/100_1331.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5171339460334078002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_RLA7n9AcU_A/R8RJ1xosSDI/AAAAAAAAADI/kh-VAmhG8dI/s320/100_1331.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Collaborative recording about six months in the making through the mail, cauchy riemann from kent and peasant graves in columbus. Peasant Graves has been under the radar for awhile, self releasing a couple cdrs to favorable results, with his recent cdr, Decay, gathering the following review: "a slow low drone sounds and loops from the distance, rising and falling like the slow breath of an old man...A slow almost siren starts ringing warning you of something; very distant at first, then slightly louder, then nothing" (Pointless Blank). Same effort here. One man bass, hi fidelity, and slow ass drones. Cauchy Riemann hits it a little less sporadically this time, showing more of a mature, thought out sound. Complimenting side ones sludging bass lines with some thick guitar and some home built lo fi junk/hex inverter sounds, and side two gets layed out with some thicker guitar and full on modular synth with the bass drones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DROUGHTER &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;"&gt;YOUNG HARM C12 (ltd 50)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_RLA7n9AcU_A/R45jHDpq4vI/AAAAAAAAAC0/kDHbR_2ATXE/s1600-h/100_1281.JPG"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5156167596276114162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_RLA7n9AcU_A/R45jHDpq4vI/AAAAAAAAAC0/kDHbR_2ATXE/s320/100_1281.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt; Harsh noise from this prolific san francisco ripper.
