nula.cc

Selected as one of the Best Field Recording Albums on Bandcamp, July 24

“For decades, Lloyd Dunn was a prankster and provocateur. His band The Tape-beatles used a method they called Plagiarism®, illegally sampling radio ads, audiobooks, and world-famous artists (among them, of course, the Beatles) to satirize American mass media. More recently, Dunn has turned to natural sound sources for his nula.cc project. Here, Dunn is interested in stillness and motion, either creating great blocks of static ambience or onward-rushing blurs of noise. Every Forever Is Written In Rust combines both, being simultaneously about stasis and movement. “[T]he charge of ourselves passes over the landscape like tinned ghosts, touching nothing, while the land unscrolls beneath us. Yet the overwhelming sensation is that we are motionless, spectators within an enveloping projection,” he writes. These four long tracks are full of forward momentum while remaining perfectly calm, recreating the feeling of sitting still on a bus as the landscape speeds by. All you have to do as the passenger is listen and let the world reveal itself in gorgeous, painterly detail.”
