complexities.

The Family Tapes reconvened today for some recording and, yeah. It's still hard. Maybe I'll post a recording in a bit.

This is the online archive/repository for Netherlands-based guitar toucher, arranger/assembler, and sound editor Mark Morse.

Released in Feb 2009 on the Kazemat label, my first (split) vinyl LP:

My side is 20 minutes, one highly edited piece, 181 "tracks" of me playing prepared and unprepared guitar, unlikely percussion, dilapidated brass and woodwinds, and not-very-realistic keyboards.

Sounds awesome, I know, but nonetheless Gonzo Circus called it something like "a fascinating puzzle", and Vital Weekly called it a "surprising piece of music", so there you go.

Here's a 5-minute edit I did of it for radio:

Morsanek: The Vacation (radio edit) (4:40)
