Wolf Fluorescence / Wet Eyes - Split (Freebie!)

Heads up on a killer new split release from two favorites here at GMLT, Wolf Fluorescence and Wet Eyes, from Wet Eyes Productions. The front half, from the WF moniker of Ross Devlin, interweaves a massive volume of experimental and ambient elements in a single side long transportive master blast. From sounds that feel ripped from the NES classic Captain Comic, to warbled raw piano, to looping melancholic synth, to hooting owls. About fifteen tracks worth of A level composition combined into a single piece that works really well. On the flip, Ross Auger delivers the most robust and fully developed ambient guitar work I've heard from his Wet Eyes project to date. Four tracks of reverb drenched guitar melt. Patient, deeply relaxing stuff, highlighted by the standout seventeen minute exploration, Flying Kites At Night. An absolutely incredible track that sounds like watching a sunrise and sunset at the same time.

Hand numbered and produced edition of just 40, stream in full and grab directly from the Wet Eyes Productions Bandcamp. Ross from WEP has been cool enough to send me two copies of this tape to pass along as freebies! Hit me up at guidemelittletape at gmail dot com, and one of them is yours, no catch, first come first serve. Gone to Bill and Mike as of 3/21! Enjoy!

Wolf Fluorescence - We're So Glad You're Home

Discordant, occasionally breathtaking, and endlessly creative new release from Wolf Fluorescence, with We’re So Glad You’re Home, on Fabrica Records. This marks the second release from the WF project I’ll be raving about this year, and as with his prior release on Sic Sic, Ross Devlin, the man behind the moniker, combines with calculated abandon, a vast array of sounds and textures. I say calculated, because there’s a wonderful editor’s eye on display here controlling all of this madness. Honestly, I could find five tapes worth of material coalesced into this single album, and yet somehow all of it plays nice together. Some of it sweet, endearing and melodic, other parts eerie, a bit off kilter and ragged. The flip of the tape is a single side long stunner overflowing with compositional ideas, lost in an overwhelming tide of gorgeous, crushing, overdriven melody and capped with a beautiful orchestral vocal . Absolutely one to watch.

Beautiful edition, limited to fifty copies. Order via Fabrica for as long as they last.
