Monsters Of Felt
Preservation
EXPERIMENTAL
The Preservation label presents ‘Monsters of Felt’, the 4th collab between TOM CARTER & ROBERT HORTON. Carter is half of acclaimed KRANKY duo CHARALAMBIDES and has worked with THURSTON MOORE and BARDO POND and has been a lightning rod-like figure for the American psychedelic, folk and experimental underground scenes.
Robert Horton’s musical exploits are diverse and span three decades. From his early punk days to free jazz, drone & even psychedelic hillbilly, Horton is happily hard to pin down. He also makes his own instruments, most notably the ‘boot’, a four-stringed instrument that plays like an otherworldly dobro or slide guitar.
‘Monsters of Felt’ hits a zone both fierce and lulling at once. The radiating undertow of Horton’s sonic manipulations – including sound sources from cassettes, field recordings, computer, bass and the ‘boot’ – accompanies Carter’s re-routing of American guitar traditions into mantras of trance and white light.
Expect community and Radio National airplay (JJJ’s Soundlab), reviews in local and international alternate press. Advertising in The Wire, Cyclic Defrost and 2SER-FM. Limited edition deluxe packaging featuring unique, award-winning design. Posters & laminates available.
