This Tape Just In: Order Of The Wire Mother “Because Your Names Are Written In Heaven”

There is a little bit of Space Mountain Late Night feel happening. And I like it.

Plays at the edge of mysterious.

At times, it is what my brain sounds like after seven beers.

It may be only four tracks, but two of them are very long, so you’re good. Hauntingly good.

Order of the Wire Mother is an experimental, harsh, transcendental noise outfit out of Minneapolis. They are on the Bumpy Records label.

This Tape Just In: Sean Hendley “Let Peace Brood Over This Carcass”

Come along with Sean, exploring back alleys and vacant buildings, with his fingerstyle guitar playing. “Let Peace Brood Over This Carcass: Rust Belt Guitar Soli” is a collection recorded on a digital 8-track between 2022 and 2025, remastered for cassette. It is a limited run; only 100 tapes exist.

Some of my favorite tracks include:

  • Ballad of a Vacant Lot.
  • Bloodroot.
  • LuYu in Cloud Tower.

Sean Hendley is out of Milwaukee, WI.

Label: Gnostic Recordings.

This Tape Just In: Purity Olympics “impossible feburary in d minor”


The kind folks over at Minneapolis label, Bumpy Records, were kind enough to send over another tape. This one from Purity Olympics “impossible feburary in d minor” is an experimental escape of lucious echo-y proportions.

It is everything its soundscape, intimate self, wants so badly be. I am happy to add it to my collection.

At the moment of writing this, there is one tape left at $5 if you want to grab it.
