Another new EP is now available from LDWR, and our 13th continues the trend of experimental sounds. It's also our second contribution from Washington D.C. (following Version 3 by BLK w/BEAR).

Version 13 is by the fantastic TagCloud.

Here is what he has to say:

'Hi, I'm Chris from Washington DC. TagCloud is the catchall name for my various naive experiments with remixing and manipulation of found sounds and field recordings. All sounds here are from the source material.

I am still very new to this, so thanks to Justin for the chance to participate in this series. I thoroughly enjoyed it.'

Version 11 now available

Version 11 has arrived, and is another great set of tracks. The version is by The Truth About Frank, a duo from Leeds active in the field of electronic music since late 2006.

Here's what they have to say about their tracks:

"We are always open to interesting collaborations and so were delighted to be invited to contribute to the 14 Versions series, particularly given the quality of releases to date.

For this project, very specific roles were assigned and working methods adopted. Our main rule was to stick strictly to the sound sources provided with the aim of creating four pieces that we believed compliment each other and work in sequence, as well as fitting in with what we understand to be the spirit of the project. We, at least, are pleased with how our contribution has turned out, and would like to thank LDWR for their support and interest."

After an autumn break, LDWR is back with a fantastic set of tracks from Susan Hawkins.

Susan Hawkins is a composer and sound artist currently based in Australia. Previously known as one half of 'imaginationandmymother' (with Olivia Pisani), Susan has been developing musical work primarily concerned with exploring the conspiratorial relationship between sound, music and image in creating a platform for thought and reflection.

She has been artist in residence with CESTA (for the 11th Arts Festival of International, Interdisciplinary Collaborations, Czech Republic) and the Bundanon Trust (Australia), has participated in the International Course for Professional Composers and Choreographers (UK), and has worked on numerous interdisciplinary projects in Europe and North America.

Experimenting with different software and sampling techniques, Susan has made four unique remix postcards for the project. Visit her website for more information about her work...

Version 9 now available

Click HERE to download the EP

We are delighted to announce the release of Version 9 of 14 Versions of the same EP by the wonderful Volume = Colour.

Volume = Colour are guitarist/artist Arthur Karanikas and musician/visualist
Don Rogers, initially formed to perform closing night of the 2006 Melbourne
Fringe Festival. They use images of Arthur's paintings to create visual
projections around which a soundtrack of open ended, instrumental pieces is
performed live. The concept has been performed multiple times in Sydney,
Melbourne and Adelaide, Australia - including 2007's Adelaide Fringe
Festival.

August 2008 sees Volume = Colour produce the 9th release in the Long
Division With Remainders project series. For Version 9, Volume = Colour
chose to integrate some of their existing recordings with material provided
by LDWR. Employing the remix and collaborative skills of friends Cam Butler,
Michael Munsun, Geosophy and Primitive Charlie, four radical
reinterpretations have been created.

Besides also playing in Infinite Decimals, members of Volume = Colour are
currently working on their next audio-visual show, Lost To The City - 'an
abstract film about the city' with a live soundtrack, debuting on closing
night of the 2008 Melbourne Fringe Festival.

More information about Volume = Colour can be found HERE.
