Lost Trail & Animals Like Earthquakes – split tape (cassette)



I like split tapes and compilations. It`s a great way to discover new bands / artists. Tim collapse (ALE) who sent me this here cassette, told me before to check out `Lost Trail`. LT is the ambient / drone / experimental noise project of husband and wife duo Zachary Corsa and Denny Wilkerson Corsa. They hail from Burlington, NC, USA, and use a lot of old, lo-fi, obsolete recording technology (definitely analog equipment). Upon the first listen I`m quite impressed. They use; found sounds, samples, guitar drones, lo-fi noisebytes, and field recordings. They create a sonic tapestry of otherworldly ambient noise / ambient darkwave / noise with lo-fi minimalism undertones. This is relaxing and beautiful introspective music.

On the second side we have Animals Like Earthquakes. Tim collapse also uses old analog gear. I would love to see this guy in a live setting. Upon listening, I found out he uses a mixture of: answering machine samples, minimal electronics, found sounds, loops, samples and sounds / processed sounds of unknown origins. The end result is a weird journey into psychedelic, psychotronic experimental lo-fi ambient minimalism. Strange but true. Tim I love your music please send me more.
