About this product

Vinyl LP pressing. 2015 , the third album by guitarist Ken Camden. Dream Memory continues his explorations to seek out new techniques and sounds from the electric guitar. By utilizing both a steel slide and e-bow technique, Camden has moved into micro-tonal territory to bridge the textural gap between guitar and synthesizer while examining their inherent differences. The palette is further broadened by introducing an organic vocal sampling machine described as a Vocaltron. Much like a Mellotron, vocal samples (contributed by Emily Elhaj and Angel Olsen) are chromatically organized in half steps from the lowest note to the highest possible. Each set is specific to the contributor's range and each note is unedited to keep all original characteristics of that particular individual's voice. This organized organic information adds a contrast to the electric guitar and synthesizer arrangements on the album. The development of all of these systems gives Dream Memory a diversity throughout its tracks while maintaining an atmospheric bond that weaves the ideas into a thematic whole.

Destroyer - Ken   - VINYL LP

Vinyl LP pressing, includes . Of his 12th studio album and it's enigmatic title, Destroyer's Dan Bejar offers the following Sometime last year, I discovered that the original name for InchThe Wild OnesInch (one of the great English-language ballads of the last 100 years or so) was InchKen.Inch I had an epiphany, I was physically struck by this information. In an attempt to hold on to this feeling, I decided to lift the original title of that song and use it for my own purposes. It's unclear to me what that purpose is, or what the connection is. I was not thinking about Suede when making this record. I was thinking about the last few years of the Thatcher era. Those were the years when music first really came at me like a sickness, I had it bad. Maybe InchThe Wild OnesInch speaks to that feeling, probably why Suede made no sense in America. I think InchkenInch also means Inchto know.Inch ken was produced by Josh Wells of Black Mountain, who has been the drummer in Destroyer since 2012. The album was recorded in it's entirety in the jam space/studio space that the group calls The Balloon Factory. However, unlike Poison Season, ken was not recorded as a InchbandInch record, though everyone in the band does make an appearance.
