Ian Nagoski

Mindblowing pure droney nectar limited LP, very last copies around..."Beautiful artwork can be the gateway to a promised land of sensual delights and aural ecstasy. This is a perfect example of that collision. Recorded at home for the famed Resonance 103.3 FM and broken into two parts for the record, Kerflooey consists of two multilayered, well-crafted sonic drone actions of subtle, beautiful, and haunting densities. Ian Nagoski takes the listener on a reworked journey through his previous three releases by mixing them and using them as source material for this new LP. The first three releases were originally recorded on a 4-track using sounds that were created from manipulated feedback and from vibrations from a metal instrument known as the ?Wild Wave?, invented by Dan Conrad, brother of Tony Conrad. With his ears rooted in sound as movement, Nagoski produces erotic tonal hymns within the bleak and ghost-like recording shifting in an occult torrent between calm and disturbance. Although the record never rises to a noisy orgasmic crescendo, the orgasm is implied and is sustained throughout as in slow-motion. Dotting pulses of melodic hum frequent the transparent motion like hydrozoas scattering through light and darkness in flashes of psychical delight. Who couldn?t live forever within this magikal den of opiate-like dreamscapes that Nagoski has prepared? Thank you, Ian. Absolutely beautiful!! Highly recommended. 8/10 Foxy Digitalis
