The End Springs / Donato Epiro : Dust Wind Tales -tapesingle- (US/I,2006)**'
I almost forgot I had a tape player (and a good one too, driven by 3 motors and with 3 heads !), so it was time to find out about it with this tape only release. Each side is a little over 10 minutes. First side by The End Springs is a guitar piece, ("dust options & sky rocks") with acoustic rhythm guitar, building up notes with just a few pickings, while a few flute echo effects are added. One of the strings works like a droning string while a moody rhythmical melody is improvised upon, from chords to a few pickings. This is quickly over. The track by Donato Epiro '"Funerary song for a slug") starts with a harmonium drone, of which a few tones come out, before a guitar piece appears, with weird anti-chords, and of what sound like some additional glass bottle sounds. The composition is multitracked or multi-layered with weird/odd prepared pickings, like a minimalist oddity, of which after a while the mind gets used to and relaxes to, with enjoyment before the harmonium concludes the piece. Limited to 60 numbered copies.
