Hi there,
in 2019, we've mostly been active with shows (Pefkin! Burd Ellen! Wio! Edgar Wappenhalter! Circle Bros!) - all very rewarding, but it's finally time for the first release of the year. it's one that we had been thinking about for a while: a gorgeous split lp by two familiar faces: Matt Christensen and Circle Bros. both veterans present long, semi-improvised and meandering tracks that are somewhat out of their comfort zone, but so recognisable their very own style.
Matt brings one sidelong track that explores pretty much every aspect of guitar-ambient possible, with some vocals hidden in as well. Circle Bros put together two silent yet fluent tracks about lack of sleep.
The album is pressed on high-quality german clear vinyl, and all sleeves are screenprinted by hand on sturdy chipboard paper. complete with download coupon,
as usual: just 14 euro + shipping - which is around 6 euro for belgium, 9-10 for anywhere in europe or the usa, and 14 for the rest of the world. official release date is set for 8 october, pre-orders will arrive around that date. (we have the records in, so: no delays!). (also: when ordering at least three items, you'll get a 10% discount...)

more familiar faces!
the two most recent albums we put out before that were by morc-regulars Edgar Wappenhalter and Bingo Trappers, both returning after a couple of years silence. and what a warm return that was...
Bingo Trappers are a dutch lofi duo that debuted back in the early nineties on the legendary shrimper label. they've always kept going, and elizabethan is their second lp on morc (after a string of compilation/ep appearances in the early 2000s) - this one is a corelease with the US labels Grapefruit Record Club (run by simon joyner) and Unread, and the italian Almost Halloween Time.
Edgar Wappenhalter is a household name round here too: not many people appeared on more morc-releases than mr. Steve Marreyt (a quick count: this the tenth time!) His previous lp on morc, 'on the beach' back in 2010, was sold out so quick we even had to repress it. this latest untitled lp consists of a long acapaella lamanetatio on the a-side, whereas the b-side is largely sample-based, but in a very unique way. a bit different than his earlier work, but you'll definately recognize his approach.
as usual: 14 euro per lp - shipping to most countries is approx 9 euro, or 14 for the two of them (or basically anything up to 3 lps + a 7" or a cd). when ordering at least three items, we always give a 10 percent discount.

- this might be a good moment to remind you!
- we've totally ran out of copies of 'droomharmonium' , the double cd by hellvete. I know what the fight is', the new lp by Matt Christensen and the 'murmurations' lp by Pefkin. but no need to dispair: some distro's still have a few left. get in touch, and we'll guide you to a distro in your area.
- same goes for the restocked copies of the hellvete/luster 10" and the drekka 2cd: all gone.
- we're running low on stock of most items that are still available. (eg the tanner/kraus lp and the iditarod lp, even the recent bingo trappers lp!) don't say we didn't warn you.
