Bloxham Tapes BT05: GALLOWAY – 'HALLOGALLOWAY'

"Jesus Christ, they've done it. They've done it."

HALLOGALLOWAY sees recording engineer GALLOWAY tying together the 'Threads' – field recordings; studio equipment with a life of its own; Chris Watson-era Cabaret Voltaire Selmer clatter; tape delay and FM decay – heard on his side of an uncompromising split cassette (WHITE PEAK/DARK PEAK) on the Stars, Dots, and the "New" Junk label for this full-length release on Bloxham Tapes.

We are proud to unveil GALLOWAY's exorcism of the ghosts of a Sheffield childhood, presented over two sides of ferric tape.

Gather in the mushrooms. Protect and survive. Keep it reel-to-reel.

(Please note: the timing of this release is purely accidental. Bloxham Tapes cannot be held responsible for the time-slip of world events or indeed the current political temperature-drop from hot to cold.)

"Galloway’s debut album – one which has been a while in coming but has been worth the wait… 'Mohs Scale' handily throttles the expectations one might have of a pastoral, droning landscape… its feedback loops cascade over the border before brutishly melding into a caustic brew of digital effects whipping about like so many venomous tendrils bent on poisoning whatever they can reach… This entire record really does seem sentient, sneeringly discarding patches and rhythm in equal shares, never letting that unease abate long enough for the listener to find their bearings…" SANTA SANGRE

Bloxham Tapes. Experimental sounds for an unsound world. Riding the London-Bergen ley line.
