Description: | Limited edition double vinyl LP repressing of the Indie Rock band's 1999 album housed in a Stoughton tip on gatefold jacket with download code of nearly three hours of hard-to-find previously unreleased material. Black Foliage: Animation Music contains insanely catchy '60's- inspired pop music in addition to sound collages, field recordings, ambience, cathartic noise and outlandish production that makes Phil Spector's 'Wall of Sound' look like a cubicle divider.Black Foliage ? Animation Music
Recorded on various 4 and 8 track machines at home 95-98 and with Robert Schneider mixing and overdubbing on some tracks for two weeks in the spring of 98.
Track A8 cello sampled from his contribution to [r=711827] by [a538181] on several of the tracks.
"Tell us your dreams, send cassette taped details documenting your dreams and sounds of your environment (real or otherwise) four our next project."
Black ? Foliage ? Notes
"The idea as black foliage began was to take a section of the guitar line from Black Foliage (now called Itself) and make a set of animated departures stemming from that bass guitar melody, twisting it to many variations ? as time moved on the animation series became intermingled with our daily lives, we added new hunks of sound everyday, the animation sections began to include pieces of each other example: the vocals from 1 were reshaped and sampled into 2 that reworking would be used. Again reshaped for for 3 etc. as the other songs began to take shape we began extracting elements of them example: horns from "Hideaway" and string part from "A Sleepy Company" as each song became integrated as a whole into the new songs, edits became edits within edits...which birthed "combinations"--pieces of songs melodies vocal parts, drum fills etc. become electronic interludes that are derived from the songs themselves, all of which are in various states of becoming or drifting back from animation. Including dreams along the way from our "send us your dream" appeal careful though was also considered as to making the music pulse with the rhythm of modern life at times things seem quiet, or multiple sounds merge...let your environment in..."
