Ferric:Flux

Ferric:Flux is a series of mini-EPs. They will be released on cassette tape in small quantities. Numbers of the cassettes will be limited to an edition of 100 copies and there will also be a download made available too. Why cassettes in the early 21st Century? There is a warmth of audio when listening back to cassettes. The tumultuous struggle against some sort of faceless and terrifying e-void has me pretty confused. The signs of deliberate regression are everywhere: vinyl LPs continue to (re-)grow in popularity; micro-communities built around fanzines and basement shows continue to burgeon; lo-fi home recording remains a spirited exercise in anti-consumerist, anti-corporate production and distribution; and, most recently, the inexplicable comeback of cassette tapes has confirmed its status as veritable zeitgeist.
