  • Not There / Here 7" lathe - edition of 30
    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Cut by Johnny Electric here in Ōtautahi, housed in hand printed cyanotype sleeves with a digital download card. Limited to a run of 30 only, these won't stick around.

    OVERSEAS PUNTERS - a small number of these records will be stocked by our friends in the UK - Bunkland Records. If you are in the northern hemisphere please fire off a message to bunklandrecs@gmail.com to order your copy and hopefully save on the shipping! I say hopefully, because we run exclusively on blind optimism down here. Or is it whiskey? I forget.

about

The Escalation is a guitar duo consisting of Peter Wright and Bruce Russell. Bruce can’t play guitar properly and Peter doesn’t try very hard. They have played with groups of other people, such as TMA-1 and the Dead C. Together they explore the outer reaches of audible space, boldly going where only even bolder tone-wranglers have gone before.

--------

Not There / Here

This seven inch polycarbonate slab captures two monophonic chunks of duelling guitar deconstruction clipped from a live appearance at the hardest working small venue in the land as part of The Darkroom's monthly series dedicated to improvised mayhem. This is The Escalation in full throat, torturing ancient NZ-made amplifiers with prerequisite oscillating warble and ear eviscerating shrieks - what might be considered a warning shot across the bows ahead of their debut LP, coming soon.

We're taking no prisoners. Strap in.
