eve28 - when i know you will too - 'aca' cdr
austin's sean o'neill, of when i know you will too, makes his first outing for evelyn with new album 'aca'. serving as an expansion of its predecessor, the gong-led debut 'astoria' on asaurus records, 'aca' is a stark and fragile series of minimal ambient recordings, and a further exploration of the glacial beauty of when i know you will too's sound. please visit the catalogue page for more details and ordering.

subscription series six and subscription series seven are now available to buy for £10 / $25 / €17 each. please see below or visit the subscription series page here for further details.

evelyn records marked the release of subscription series 6 with a dj set at the july 2006 retrieval show featuring courtis and cheapmachines.
thanks to everyone who came to the evelyn records night #5 in september.
more shows to come in 2007.

the subscription series
standing apart from the main catalogue is our 'sister label-of-sorts', the subscription series. each series consists of five cdrs by five experimental artists from across the globe. to subscribe please choose which series you wish to order and send £10 / $21 / €16.
the subscription series' unique format allows artists the scope to experiment further which has resulted in many diverse and anomalous recordings. releases can therefore often be departures in sound/method; a strange hybrid recording or set of obscure out-takes that wouldn't fit anywhere else, a one-off experiment or the hidden gem by the invented side-project pseudonym of an acclaimed artist. for more information go to the subscription series page here
new releases:
series six presents five fine exponents in experimental electronica-noise.
each disc presents exploratory recordings of short sonic studies together with extended improvisation.
norway's iversen continues his project to record 20 minute improvised tracks for each letter of the norwegian alphabet, with 'caligula symphony c', plus four other inspired electronic experiments. the hugely prolific chefkirk is next with twelve diverse noise experiments and electronic vignettes.
scott taylor founder of the marvellous sijis and lapilli imprints, archives material from two decades of recording with drifting experimental electronica. silo presents a joyously malevolent brutal noise attack, while the long-awaited full-length from fencepost follows up from his critically-acclaimed e.p. with minimal glitch music and miniscule micro-sounds.

series seven is five drone and ambient recordings, a series which sonically most closely resembles the evelyn records main catalogue. this is for drifting far away.
first, shifts seeps the soul with a meditative translucent drone. aidan baker is next with two introspective improvised guitar works, one using electric guitar and the other acoustic. both are ambient recordings but do not use any effects, processors or manipulations. duane pitre/pilotram follows with two tracks of beautiful melancholic ambience and looped experimentation. pink eye sore, a collaboration between nick davidson (pink eye/dead eye) and ian masters (i'm sore/the pale saints), is next with plaintive tonal experiments of looped metallic timbres and gong-like resonance. finally signals create swathes of warm guitar and electronica drone set against a grainy bird-sounds field recording.

both series #6 and series #7 are £10 / $25 / €17 each for all five cdrs, or £4 / $10 / €7 for any individual cdr.
