Gil.Barte aka Mert Seger hit Bristol town just last week for a show for that PLAQUE night at the Cube, with YOKEL, Content Provider and Birthmark, and we were lucky enough to snatch one handful of these murky Mert Seger tapes off of him during his visit to RWDFWD HQ, which happens to be just up the road from the Cube...

If you checked that Mert Seger tape on PLAQUE not long back, you'll know what's up - murky electronics of the highest order.
The tapes we have here date back to '22 - but who cares if this is new or old - this kind of good sh*t doesn't age...

check the intel: " here are nights carved like the journey of the dead out of the livings' daylight. Mert Seger brings to our senses a two steps ritual for this debut on Kump. « Yétèkpãnra », freely inspired by the funeral rites of the Batãmmariba of Togo and Benin depicted by Dominique Sewane, runs along with no clear beginning nor any end, a sound sketch where the shapeless rustle from the depths of the night meets a procession of artefacts. In this space where the dead finds his way, time lost its importance and the whole piece can go on repeat, endlessly, a prayer wheel to guide whom can only keep his own shadow among the shadows of the other side. Two ceremonies to haunt the silence ; a new state of existence calls for a different listening. Where night becomes the beginning, again."
