This presentation by AIR SIGN listens like an extended raga that morphs into layers of ambient drone and then closes with a high energy/low fidelity monotony backed by primitive drum machines, digital waves and blasting SUICIDE-esque organs. Split into two movements, both fronted by trance like vocals, this tape might take a while to get into, but after the first side crescendos about eleven minutes in with countless tracks of sound and caterwaul and electronics inviting you into another realm so you can truly live the rest of the tape....well, after you've let go, then the rest is pure gold.

Thanks for the post. Always down with the drone. Repetition and beatless-ness are as welcome as bone crushing HC and metal to these ears. Great spate of diverse posts lately. Thanks and be well.
Hi there -- You might be interested to know that Air Sign is Justin McInteer, formerly of LA experimental trio VxPxC. Justin also co-founded the legendary venue Echo Curio, which hosted hundreds of bands in its all-too-brief existence, and provided a home base for bands like Pocahaunted, Sun Araw, Robedoor, Obscurer, Warm Climate, and pretty much anyone else playing weird/psych/rock/noise/drone in Los Angeles.
Justin is a gifted fine artist, and if you are so inclined you can check out his fascinating and mind-bending work here: https://www.instagram.com/justinmcinteer/
