Q-O2’s umland editions received some last messages from our beloved Mothership, in the form of four split releases featuring live recordings from the Oscillation ::: from the Mothership festival last spring. Featuring: Lawrence McGuire‘s synthetic/human vocal recitations, Madison Greenstone‘s unruly clarinet timbres, Vica Pacheco & Loto Retina‘s hydraulic sound sculpture dialogue, Ikbal Lubys‘ sonic ghosts of deforestation, Rhodri Davies‘ buzzing bray harp confabulations, Bárbara González‘s in situ assemblages, WACK’s (Jennifer Walshe & Neil Luck) surreal technological occultisms, and Tom Mudd‘s synthetic guitar models. The pieces, live recorded during the festival in different spaces are published now on four split albums, available online on our label umland editions on bandcamp.
