about

Cassette Limited Edition
SOLD OUT
—

Missing Organs is Tristan Bath, a British musician and writer based in Vienna, Austria. Old Speakers deploys a bottomless variety of instruments, beats, and techniques, all refined and rewritten —somewhat accidentally— into a document of the period of personal and international upheaval during which they came to life. Old Speakers is his Brexit album; a document of the dread, quiet chaos, and bitterness in European society which came to the surface in 2016. Field recordings and improvisations formed the basis of the music, including mountain winds from Upper Austria, a violin furiously scraped on a paranoid evening in South London, rusty ferry engines between Canary Islands, and melodies haphazardly sketched out on lengthy journeys over the continent. As a sonic diary Old Speakers is necessarily filled with fleeting thoughts and psychedelic jump cuts, assembled around industrial strength beats and rusty structures into a bleak journey through the psyche of the artist.

Deep, ever-shifting, mesmerising electronic dub. This is the music I wanted to hear when I first explored Monolake 15 years ago. I'll be playing this for a long time to come. Tolujin

This has to be one of the more approachable albums in Umor Rex' catalog. Calm, abstract, clean atmosphere and a mild dose of experimentation make this a very enjoyable affair. Michael Feihstel
