Ian William Craig & Kago - Split Series 24

Format: LP
Catalogue No.: 12FAT109
Barcode: 0600116410917
Release Date: 16th July 2021
Genre: Ambient/Drone

 The twenty-fourth - and final - issue in FatCat’s long-running and much-loved Split Series arrives on the 25th Anniversary of the Brighton-based label.
 ‘Split Series #24’ features acclaimed Canadian singer / composer Ian William Craig alongside the brilliant but little-known Estonian Kago - two artists each using their voice as a central element of their craft, mediated through technology to conjure startlingly singular soundworlds.
 Neither side here will sound quite like anything you’ve previously heard. Ian William Craig provides a 19-minute-long immersive tape piece, with Kago delivering a warped, acid-tinged slice of Eastern European freak-folk to round off a killer
release that fits the free-wheeling aesthetic of the Split Series perfectly.
 Last ever release in FatCat’s long-running and much-hyped Split Series, described by NME as “a virtual academy of the abstract... [where] the shock troops of post-everything music gather” and by The 405 as having “left an indelible mark on the face of modern electronica.”
 Hand-drilled and hand-numbered sleeves with full printed inner sleeve in a one-off vinyl pressing.
 For fans of Tim Hecker, William Basinski, Ben Frost, The Caretaker, Maarja Nuut, Mari Kalkun.
