Bitter Fictions – ‘Nos 1 & 2’ C40 $6
Two EPs of mostly-improvised guitar loop compositions from Canadian writer/musician Devin Friesen. no. 1 is the louder of the two EPs, compiling four sequential live improvisations and one extra track of patiently focused guitar layering–imagine elements of a Rhys Chatham or Glenn Branca piece put together in a bedroom instead of a concert hall. no. 2 focuses more on mood, gradually shifting from stargazing harmonics into foggy smears of bummed-out feedback. Edition of 50, pro-dubbed/printed tapes.
