::: Sovetskaya Gone - 'Smiling Skies on the Backs of Airplanes' c24 ::: Cylindrical Habitat Modules [Twenty-Seventh Module tape]

"A perfect summer grip; three tracks of melodic synth composition reflecting various moods. Side A holds a dejected, proggy loner jam that sounds like it should be performed by a full orchestra, and a brief outburst of blown-out drones and weird minimal pulses. Side B's sole track follows a notably Froese-ian arpeggio in a serene come-down that definitely sounds in line with some of the current Cleveland sounds. The whole recording has a specific, straightforward vibe that is interlaced by tastefully out-of-key segments that are extremely characteristic and endearing in a head-scratching way." --- CHM

Excited to have this see the light of day on the excellent
Hooker Vision imprint:

Ossining - Agitate the Gravel 3" cdr (HIV057)

Kevin Danchisko (Sovetskaya Gone) and Brad Rose (The North Sea) create tone chasms of separation that spill through walls of blurred vision. Isolated outflow: pure, undefined. Minerals reach the surface as crystallization marked phantom keys. The sprawl of haunted delay. The material of dream photography. The gravel underfoot is bleak from continuous frost. Synthetic weeds struggle to clamber through the cracks like dusty light melodies escaping through slits of shiftless cabin windows in glorious fall.

Agitate the Gravel (excerpt) by Hooker Vision

$4 - Edition of 25.

Very Scarce Limited Copies are available direct from Hooker Vision - get in touch with Grant direct.
I should have very, very limited copies available direct shortly.

Sovetskaya Gone
"Smiling Skies on the Backs of Airplanes" C24

Happy to be releasing this tape for LA's Kevin Danchisko, definitely one of the nicest, most solid dudes I've done business with so far. A perfect summer grip; three tracks of melodic synth composition reflecting various moods. Side A holds a dejected, proggy loner jam that sounds like it should be performed by a full orchestra, and a brief outburst of blown-out drones and weird minimal pulses. Side B's sole track follows a notably Froese-ian arpeggio in a serene come-down that definitely sounds in line with some of the current Cleveland sounds. The whole recording has a specific, straightforward vibe that is interlaced by tastefully out-of-key segments that are extremely characteristic and endearing in a head-scratching way. 80 copies on labeled trans orange tapes with full color artwork.

Ossining - "I Will Be Missed" Lp [Digitalis Vinyl]

2010-04-28T17:53:00.000-07:00

digiv021: ossining "i will be missed" LP $15 / $18 / $26
Fresh from the sunny cascades that split the mountains into pieces, the duo of Brad Rose (Altar Eagle, The North Sea, etc) and Kevin Danchisko (Sovetskaya Gone) rip into the bliss that drips from synthetic space nebulae. "I Will Be Missed" is the first vinyl release following up a handful of cassettes. With nods to '60s Americana via laced cocktails and theoretical academic roots, Ossining takes this drag race to the moon.

"I Will Be Missed" collects three synth-driven underwater vision quests. Crystal sequences are force-fed through strings of filters resulting in flourescent, smoldering towers of muddy ambience. The idea is to make something inherently beautiful that sucks the air from your lungs resulting in a wobbly, unclear treatise. With the cracks smoothed over, each sharp jolt takes on a life of its own turning up the temperature and morphing into a pure white heaven. It's all hands-on-deck if you don't want to get dropped into the boiling seas below.

The flipside brings the lightshow to its peak, taking things positively solar. Backed by walls of bloop-infested waters and arpeggiated madness, the duo let the vocals fly. Each run through exudes an underlying tension searching for any hole to escape. As melodies loop and feedback on top of each other, the beginnings are consumed by the ends. Nothing is left to chance and nobody is hoping for perfection. In the end, Ossining deliver two sides of silver-soaked dreams blasted in a holographic glow. Mad men, the lot of them.

Vinyl only edition of 111 copies. Silkscreened covers (by VGK).

Sovetskaya Gone - Sashweights & Bags of Birdshot c25
AS24: Edition of 75
$6 US/ $7 CAN / $8 INTL

L.A.’s Kevin Danchisko certainly had an excellent 2009, carving out his own unique space in the world of synth music with several outstanding tapes on Digitalis Ltd. and Dial Square Tapes. On Sashweights & Bags of Birdshot, he proves that there’s plenty more in store for 2010 and beyond. Inspired by Kurt Vonnegut’s classic dystopian short story Harrison Bergeron, Danchisko presents three tracks that take the form of unhinged bliss, subtle melodic beauty, and textural creepiness. Blazing arpeggios lift off toward the sun as steam pipe filters hiss below the surface. It’s all swaddled in distinctly warm Sovetskaya production and should remind you to kiss the ceiling while there’s still time. With full color artwork, inserts, and labels by M.Y.

Digitalis Limited # 120: "air rings vol. 1" 4-way split 2x c40 $12 US / $14 CAN/MEX / $16 INTL

a new series of 4-way split tapes of nothing but synth music. no guitars found here. suffice to say, pretty damn excited about these puppies. volume one features a side each from each raven brother, oklahoma flight, and our favorite resident LA goon. in other words, tape one has spare death icon planting sparkling palms and blasting off toward jupiter while charlatan hints at new ground to foray and busts a cold one. tape two, though, smooths things over with sovetskaya gone searching for bliss in bright green clouds and million mists settles the score on a bed of well-composed synthetic syrup. just what you need for these cold winter days. edition of 100, pro-dubbed.

Ossining // Afterlife c52 split cs [Stunned Records]

2009-12-02T21:52:00.000-08:00

Ossining/Afterlife — split c52 [Stunned no. 62]

This split is a convergence of forty fingers and four heads belonging to 2 crews who are no strangers to the school of modern synthesizer work — Kevin Danchisko (Sovetskaya Gone), Brad Rose (Digitalis/The North Sea), Ryan McGill (Bones of Seabirds/Cliffsides) and Franklin Teagle (Anathema Sound/Meditations). To say that each of these members has had a helluva ’09 is total understatement. Dudes have burned it up on all levels audile & visual. Case in point: the opening side’s all-hands-on-deck approach of Ossining. Kevin & Brad launch laterally in warm g-force tones for the remainder of Side A’s high-altitude analog cruising. There’s no need to come down from such birdflight bliss with Afterlife’s B-Side, offering a bounty of dilated-eye synth trance. Here Ryan & Franklin reach for the gooier forms which emerge at dusk on the horizon. Crisply telepathic in their chemical trailblazing, they dare to chisel flashing arpeggios down to quark level. Ladies and gentlemen, we have drift off. Limited edition of 111 pro-dubbed & imprinted c52 tapes with double-sided color jcard and insert.

Sovetskaya Gone - Digitalis Limited #46
ltd#46: sovetskaya gone s/t c60
look out los angeles, there's a new boss in town. sovetskaya gone traces its russian roots back through the dark ages and into oblivion. the brainchild of tonal mad man kevin danchisko, this epic analog shot is a call out to the masses: lay down or bring it. using various concoctions of analog synth and a pedal array, danchisko crafts something with a sharp edge that still finds its feet stuck in the mud of underlying, cryptic melodies. it's a beautiful, treacherous thing.

sovetskaya gone is indeed gone. zoned out and droned out into the carbon cracks of the salt-encrusted california streets. these jams are sunbaked and caked in bliss, searching the telescopic night for the last remnants of skylab. danchisko's music is steeped in modern exploration with a nod to '70s academia and a harsh dose of whiskey-addled psychedelia, and somewhere in that mess you'll find yourself totally fucking gone too. limited to 60 copies, watercolored covers.
