Info:
This is the 1.1 archive version of "1993 | Funeral | 2020" digital release (available only for a limited time through bandcamp), with one extra track from the same sessions. The original recording was a long-form 52minutes track that was splitted for 2 sides of a C60 cassette. The 1.1 archive version for Formaldehyde Production, has no additional overdubs and edits, only some volume mastering.
A sad harsh approach for the years before the parenthesis. In memory of a friend that is no longer around this dimension. RIP Γ. Recorded 2 hours before the funeral. Raw recording inside the car (52' morning ride) and old laptop manipulation half an hour before the ceremony. Uploaded the same afternoon, July the 19th 2020, a little time afterwards. Use of the 'old' 1990's Rad Mocker moniker for the sake of it.
Bio:
Melophobia (μελωφοβία) is an experimental project started in Greece in 2001. Melophobia's main interest in electro-acoustic / improv / experimental music is crafted and assembled through various analogue sources. The abstract manipulations of sound are alternately ambient and aggressive. Almost all of the sounds until the first halt in 2016 are generated, processed, recorded and played back out of cassettes. These mysterious beings orbiting in separate spheres and creating a delectable improv-graced ambiance. All releases have a do-it-yourself punk aesthetic. Various names are used along along with Melophobia since early 2000s and deserted, possibly more not known.
In 2020 melophobia celebrates the 20th anniversary of its existence in the sonic world with 'K' [ˈkæpə]. Twenty years of experimental manipulations released in various formats as cassettes, mini discs, floppy discs, compact discs, lathe cuts, digital files, hand-written files and more.
