Physical format nostalgia is probably the best impetus for this latest news from Massachusetts' Important Records.
Well, that and the warm, analog sounds of Pauline Oliveros, Aki Onda, Deceh, Conrad Schnitzler, Greg Davis, John Bischoff and Arnold Dreyblatt.
Yes, Important has announced the re-launch of its cassette imprint, Cassauna, with two new tapes, a podcast, a Bandcamp page and even a free download of Total Life's new Burners LP.
Should the revitilization of Important's sister label be considered a move to a "de-evolution format?"
Not hardly, we say.
No, because the newest batch of Cassauna titles will include Randy Gibson's The First Pillar Appearing in Supernova and Zachary James Watkins' Moveable.
Ever better, you ask? Claudia Rochetti+Pietro Riparbelli and Sarah Davachi are next in the cue for cassette release.
Cassauna's entire catalog can be found via that Bandcamp, and here's the newest podcast--sans Klaus, though.
