Dale Cornish
Two Warhol's Worth
The donation by Kevin Drumm to Phil Julian of a Hewlett-Packard test tone generator (to avoid excess baggage charges) caught the curiosity of Dale Cornish. Cornish and Julian, each individually renowned for his own releases on a variety of labels including The Tapeworm, now present their first collaboration, brought about by a chance bond over former NASA technical equipment. Dale Cornish: vocals, words, additional music; Phil Julian: electronics.
Enhex
**100 copies** So picture the scene: mid-December 2011, a pub in Hoxton, full of happy Christmas drinkers, complete with festive screeching and merriment. Within this location, a more reserved group of three, but nonetheless still celebrating. Two stylishly dressed in black, with the third in a bright yellow neon hoodie. Talk turns to the first album neon hoodie wearer has submitted, for release in 2012 by the first stylish person, which has just been mastered by the second stylish person. Talk …
Decouple Series
Second release for the Decouple ][ Series, a project that aims to showcase artists working, in their own ways, at the bold fringes of electronic composition, experimenting around the topics of increasing complexity, dependencies and miscommunication in a media-saturated digital era. British producers Dale Cornish and Sim Hutchins join the project, the former playing with an anti-sober, almost eccentric euphoria, the latter with nostalgic and slighty eerie ambient feel. The thinness of reality is…

His latest deconstruction/exploration of “a/rhythm, space, silence and pulse” presents seven Patterns in which, through varying, economical strategies and processes, he dislocates our sense of rhythmic anticipation and toys our spatial awareness.The results are playfully elusive but, could also be described as awkw…
Xeric
Xeric further explores a/rhythm, space, silence and the perception of pulse/percussive gestures first initiated with Glacial in 2012.
Fleshpile sister
Fleshpile Thematic, released on The Tapeworm earlier this year, reconsidered as an album of dub versions. Smooth edges roughed out. Re-engineered space. All human vocals erased.
Fleshpile thematic
It should probably come as little surprise that Dale was partly responsible for compiling the brilliant '&c.' album by Leslie Winer, with whom he shares a similarly soporific style of articulation and minimalism, albeit perhaps from a more contemporary and even more stripped down, obtuse perspective. Very intriguing stuff, we're sure you'll be returning to this one later down the line.
