Hidden Door Journal 001
Sound bleeds from the depths of ancient wells, from the pages of books, and from the body’s interior; inviting us into the shadows, towards the very entrails of being where we might dig amongst what history has endeavoured to keep hidden. From its dominion of the non-visible, sound speaks of impossible worlds.
Hidden Door Journal is edited by Lewis Gittus, Sarah Jones, and Sarah Walker.
Published in collaboration with Ranch Pressing.
Pre-order via Bandcamp.

LCC — EBB
The technician lowered the tonearm onto the acetate record, producing a rhythmic sequence of sharp clicks, before decaying into a low, echoing pulse. Lifting it off, he sniffed in irritation and sat down. X “Can’t say I’m surprised; this happens from time to time.” K “huh?” X “…easy enough to miss, you tune out for what…maybe two seconds? A burst of spinal static bleeds through the server’s hypodermic memory barriers and pretty soon your whole trace-line is burnt to a crisp.”
EBB vinyl is lathe-cut as an edition of 10.
