B.F.E.60 - group A "INITIATION" LP

Vinyls available at bferecords.bandcamp.com/album/bfe60-group-a-initiation-lp or ask your local favourite record shop

This is the vinyl edition of group A's first full length studio album self-released in October 2013 only in CDR format. 9 tracks of genuine experimental minimal electronics.

“We were aiming to make an album that introduces the world of group A. I was in my second grade of graphic design course and was finding lots of inspirations in history class where i learned about Japanese old customs and Shinto. Belief, folklore and symbolism about stones, wood and paper. Everyday i would go straight to the studio after the class and tell Sayaka everything i learned that day, have a beer and then jam for hours. That's how this album was created. We imagined ourselves to be living in this imaginary cave where we create rituals all day long..” Tommi about “Initiation”

Silver foil on red paper made from recycled fibers and waste from cherries. includes grey cardboard insert.

MNQ 126 group A - anOther
by group A

supported by 11 fans who also own “INITIATION LP”

Haunting and mysterious, "anOther" finds Group A crafting dark and unsettling musical spaces using abstract sound sources and processed vocals. It's an impressive release, a collection of movements that inspire deep listening and active engagement, with great rewards for those who are willing to put in the effort... rikm
