ICR06: people-eaters – ‘The Only Thing Left To Fear’
After a little bit of downtime over the new year we’re back with another tape for you to feast on. A new tape from people-eaters, the main man behind the ever wonderful and obscure Aetheric Records. The Only Thing To Fear was originally featured as a mixtape accompanying a chapbook of automatic drawings released on the aforementioned label. This cassette release features full versions of those tracks featured as well as two remixes/‘reimaginings’. The sounds contained within present a subtle, eerie atmosphere channeled through a delicate selection of hiss and crackle. The music/poetry & imaginings contained herein were directly inspired by this quote… ‘Spirit sounds are usually of a peculiar character; they have an intensity and a character of their own, and, notwithstanding their great variety, can hardly be mistaken, so that they are not easily confused with common noises, such as the creaking of wood, the crackling of fire, or the ticking of a clock; spirit raps are clear and sharp, sometimes soft and light…’ – Allan Kardec, The Medium’s Book (1861) Limited to 30 hand dubbed and numbered C50 cassettes.
