about

In their first release for Gigante Sound, Vulcanus 68 explores the creaky, eerie landscapes reminiscent of a well worn LP found in a moldy box in the corner of your grandparents cellar. Melodies are buried deep and often slowed to a crawl, while animalistic mating calls drone clunkily around the edges. The blips and bleeps of analog circuitry bubble up from time to time with the occasional howl of a begging child. We welcome you into this sonic portal, into a box in a musty cellar where records and tapes live together in a moldy, dry rot cardboard home. It's their voice. It's their songs.

"... a return to a sweatier, more physical period in the history of electronic music, when springs and reels and cranky amplifiers had to be coaxed and manhandled into making noise. The resultant numbered and colour-coded compositions on this self-titled release offer an object lesson in how easy it is to mistake a machine's lack of response to cold indifference..." -The Wire- August 2007

An album effective in it’s detailing of decline/madness in a sound form. Rich with sonic detail and sound variation, never sitting to long in one place & building slowly a great feeling of real unease and instability- -Musique Machine
