luna iii by gabby vermi

i drew ace of pentacles for third lunation of year of metal rat.

clay and i held ritual on the last new moon and pulled "i remain rooted in the dark" from a dust mote floating between us, we started this tape from that place and the spell grew and morphed as more folx got involved. peace to clay, suraj, robby, and artie for holding the dark tenderly w/ me and creating from there, for our conversational sculpting of ideas and narratives.

spells were written and rewritten, and beets were foraged/cultivated over the course of metal rat's third lunation. everything was recorded and buffed in the 2 days.

beats for breathing tool chest and urine as nitrogen supplement were made by artie do good !

tarot card design and collage by clay ire

sample materials: black moth super rainbow, haruomi hosono, jimi hendrix, cleo keahna, weyes blood, yuji ohno

other things i metabolized in the making of this tape: kitchen by banana yoshimoto (novella), soooo many loquats, coffee + lucy, paris is burning (film), bao, ji zhou, only yesterday (film), citrus galore, night is short, walk on girl (film), hashish majouns from last lunation...
