bass communion - ghosts on magnetic tape (double cd)
Back in print, and now in its fourth pressing "Ghosts on Magnetic Tape" remains the best selling Bass Communion release, and is rated by some people (including SW himself) to be one of his best albums, becoming quietly influential in the experimental music scene. Ghosts is a 5 part suite of dark organic textural music, using intricately manipulated recordings of acoustic instruments and the now familiar Bass Communion trademark ghostly crackle of old vinyl records. Inspired by Electronic Voice Phenomena recordings, the album has a spectral and eerie quality. As with the previous edition the main album is augmented with a second CD containing a full length reinterpretation by Andrew Liles that takes the original into even more creepy realms. Comes in a beautiful thick card Japanese mini LP gatefold sleeve.
