PCRV takes minimal electronic noise composition to a completely new level on Side A of this microcassette work - "sine of the times" builds slowly out of subtly-modulated oscillator tones intermixed with an intoning voice that phases in and out on a carrier wave, like two shortwave radio channels that are too close together and subtle twists of the dial cross-modulate the signals into increasingly conflictive lo-fi skronk and blat-fizz. On the other side of eruption, then implosion, someone twists the dial to a brain channel where a 12 note guitar figure loop arises from the wreckage, lives a short life of reiteration and decayed development before it all just burns down to a smoking ember in the dark. The second side is more overtly aggressive, perhaps less variegated, but no less organic and ear-tantalizing.

This release is captivating. I am at once spiritually motivated and also deeply moved by the elevated contours of this most precious artistic wonder. The sensual moods and rhythmic, spatial wonder of this release is so perfectly conveyed in visual form by the cover. Teetering between conversational background chatter and bouncing between sounds of mechanical raindrops forming mounds of rubbish outside of your neighbor's garage band practice, this stunning release is a true marvel to behold. 😇😇 acmochi
