Newsletter 1Newsletter 2Newsletter 3Newsletter 4Mana Gunray Serpentine profileMONGOLBORD SURFINGTURD Newsletter 5I know I always say this, but it's another exciting newsletter from Mongolbord Surfingurd, with two "supa-fresh" new records for your enjoyment.
First up, it's
Avuncular Orbital Ape, yet-another project from Lobedoctor MD member Krazee Kool Kongdonkey aka. Krazee Unkool Serial Rappist aka. Terrence Greyes. It's a limited edition split EP with himself, with Ultros Champion Frogpuncher vocalist Gael Hernandez, and a contribution from the mastermind of our second release...
Amarok is a brand new recording project led by Cuban composer Alejandro Mesa, and featuring members of two of our other great artists
Lord High Empruss Celia the Fuckin' Lamp and
The Only Significant Eyeball. With a pedigree like that, this project has a lot to live up to, and believe me when I say that it does. It's a small ensemble score for electroacoustic instruments.
We also hope to have a nice profile soon on
Plague Techtonics, a band much older than this label.
Until then, retaining Harvey Birdman,
Quentin Uderick Iain Phong

This is yet another left-field addition to a growing stable of Krazee [un]Kool projects, focussing on multiple cut and stitched sound-sources.
Also featured throughout are elements of a cut-up recording of cut-up poetry by Gael Hernandez of Ultros Champion Frogpuncher fame. On the final track, our newest friend Alejandro Mesa appears providing harmonium recordings. The album was designed to fit the traditional vinyl split EP format, but both sides are Avuncular Orbital Ape.
500 copies each on vinyl and single-sleeve CD. Vinyl colours are lucky-dip, 400 in deep red, 100 speckled white.

11. Tekkeitsertok (15:20)The first album by a new recording project, featuring members of Lord High Empruss Celia the Fuckin' Lamp and The Only Significant Eyeball, Anosmian Flowershawl journeys into a truly experimental region. This music is largely atemporal, performed rubato. Taking cues from the work of Morton Feldman and La Monte Young, this recording focuses on long-tones, drones and pedal-points.
The group's musical director is Alejandro Mesa, a Cuban-born composer, formerly resident in the Northwestern Territories, who performs on harmonium, dulcimer and lead voice on this recording. The manifesto for this project states that each composition should be adaptable for different instrumentation and varying tempo.
Anosmian Flowershawl focuses on aspects of myth, ritual and oral tradition through the medium of acoustic and electonic instrumentation.
2xLP edition features several thematic inserts and portions of the score, first 1000 on blue marble. CD digipack.
