Label: 4mg Records - 4MGMC05

100部限定。70年代末から80年代初頭までオブスキュアなテープレーベルAbstractionsを主宰、その後Click Clickのボーカルとして活動したUKベースのエクスペリメンタルアーティストAdrian Smith。なんと活動初期79年から88年に掛けての古い個人録音を用いた編集作品がスロバキア4mg Recordsからカセットリリース。片面約20分ずつ2パートに分けられた[Subterranean - Descent]という録音からなり、太い雑音の中を細かく蠢く何とも言えない揺らぎの長編ミックスが聞けます。とにかく作風で激オススメの一本です。

Adrian Smith: "Some of the music for Subterranean came from recordings I made between 1979 and 1988.
Edits were taken from "Electronic Music" (1978),
"Music From The Maze" (1981) and "Nada" (1988) and added
to work recorded between 2000 and 2019; these were then
edited and recorded onto tape before being disected and
rearranged into the final mix. Because of the varied quality
of some of the recordings (and my total disregard for track
separation) compression and equalisation turned out to be
very problematic, but considering some of the material came
from cassette tapes which had been sitting in a dust covered
box for 40 years, I hope you'll take these problems into
consideration before you press PLAY."
