Soloman Tump - Bun Rights

 

The wonderful Human Geography Recordings released a few of my tracks under the name "Bun Rights" and I'm very proud of this one.  It's the second of their C-15 series, the first being released by the wonderful Stonecirclesampler  but you should also check out other excellent releases from the likes of Black Hair Rolled in Dried Blood, QNDFK and Liminal Haze which have all featured on previous episodes of my Tump Clump radio show. 

So anyway, you can grab a final copy of the tape here if you are quick, or the digital, and both come with a bonus track recorded from the same session:

My text for the label to stick under the release;

Soloman Tump - Bun Rights

Recorded at home and in the field May - July 2023.

Field recordings from across Dartmoor, UK.
Sounds composed through no-input mixing, resonant instruments Geiger Lab (thanks to Plague Arish) and homemade scrap metal instruments, all connected through various effects pedals.

Side A - Bun Barrow
Field recordings from visiting Bun Barrow and the nearby Blackslade Ford. It is meant to be summer, yet the weather is abysmal.

Side B - Shewte Rights
No input-mixer drones and collapsing feedback. A response to the wild camping ban - which has since been lifted. Not that we stopped anyway. Leave no trace; create only memories.

Side C - Knave-Go-By (digital bonus track)
An additional recording spawned from the recording sessions, named after the village, which is sometimes thought to be on Dartmoor yet is located in Cornwall. A real outsider.

Thank you for having me Human Geography Recordings! I really like the aesthetics of your label and the exciting sounds that you are putting out there.
