Jasper TX - A Voice from Dead Radio
--- Quote from: Boomkat ---Under The Spire drop their conventional arigato pak, raw cardboard presentation for this Jasper TX double-disc, instead opting for full artwork - a move that only emphasises that this is a release worth drawing extra attention to. A Voice From Dead Radio devotes one disc to Jasper TX originals and a second to remixes contributed by an enviable list of artists that includes Peter Broderick, Xela, Zelienople, Steinbruchel Aaron Martin and Simon Scott. The first CD collects rare and long out-of-print 3"CD-R tracks that originally circulated during 2007 via minuscule editions named Harrisburg, D+A EP and Pilgrims (the former two were pressed up as a run of 75 copies while the latter was distributed in a relatively generous supply of 100). When sequenced together these nine tracks make for a solid, hour-long album, and since so few people were able to get hold of the material first time around, this would justify the reissue treatment all by itself.
Pair with this a new disc of remixes from the great and the good of drone and ambient music and you've got something very special indeed: Pillowdiver opens the album with a take on 'Harrisburg Pt. 1', whose static waves are stretched out into a more serene, steely format, while it's companion piece 'Harrisburg Pt. 2' is handled very differently by Zelienople. The Chicago group install a more organic presence on the record, seemingly leaving computer-generated sounds out of the equation and instead favouring a tense, febrile cover of the track dominated by live percussion, effects-treated guitars and brooding background tones. Xela's remix of 'A' comes as something of a surprise. After one or two minutes of fluctuating lo-fi textures you start to hear a 4/4 beat emerging, eventually blooming into a submerged propulsive device that brings to mind a scuzzed-up, cassette-recorded Wolfgang Voigt production. Many of the artists here choose to marry their own voices with the source material - never more literally than in the case of Peter Broderick, who introduces both acoustic guitar and fragmented vocals to 'A Beacon To Lead Us There'. Meanwhile Aaron Martin adopts a similar policy, applying his cello and wordless singing to 'Our Way Through The Field' and Jefre Cantu-Ledesma makes a strong contribution with his noisy, rumbling ambience on 'D'. Further standouts arrive from the reliably excellent Steinbruchel (whose 'Through Dusk... And Falling Leaves remix is typically pristine and beautifully realised) and Seaworthy, whose quarter-hour 'A Voice From Dead Radio' includes excerpts from every track on the album, condensing the spirit of the original material into a single wonderful tract. Limited to just 300 copies.
