Statement

This was the first in a series of four 10" records that I made, resolving only to cut one of each. This strategy coincided with a renewed focus on the visual and design aspects of my work, and a disillusionment with recorded music's increasingly digital nature.

I used analog techniques wherever possible, and created a stark white painting that cannot really be reproduced effectively in a photograph.
