This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic.
Dead Pilot have been churning these split CD's out for a while now. The 7th in the series (yes it's a series) is upon us and that's a split by Plurals and Tuluum Shimmering. It's limited to 100 copies in a digipack with a thing stuck on it and a thing on the inside of it. Classy. The Plurals track is awesome.... You get just shy of 14 minutes from 'em and it's some of the finest intense drone I've heard in a while. It reminds me of a track from the last Natural Snow Buildings album. It's really foreboding and intense, and is making my head want to explode. Nice! Tuluum Shimmering come from a more lo-fi jammy sort of way with them doing an 18 minute jam which builds from loads of tribal drums into a sparkly melodic racket which is truly nothing short of pleasing. This is most certainly one of the best things I've heard on the label in ages. Brilliant!

What their label says...
Oh how far we've come! Hot on the heels of the massive split from Archers by the Sea and Pine Smoke Lodge comes the 7th installment in the series! Pairing up Plurals with Tuluum Shimmering.
Plurals need no introduction by now. "Ocset Refund" is a track I heard come to life live a few months back in a small pub in High Wycombe. I remember being totally paralyzed by it then just as much as I am now. Plurals have mastered the art of hypnotics with synths and howls and keep bettering themselves with each release. "Ocset Refund" is a piece that definitely brings images of stars, planets, and solar systems to mind; almost like you are falling through space down to earth with it's desperateness. The piece ends with a huge wave of blissful synths which are very calming in comparison to the rest of the tracks sheer intensity.
Tuluum Shimmering has a string of limited cassette releases to his name, all with fantastic zoned out names and artwork to suit the music perfectly. Tuluum combines elements of new age, ritualistic tribal sounds and psychedelic drone. This may well be the most far out psyche jam ever on Dead Pilot. It's fantastically uplifting and playfully melodic and rhythmic as it builds from chiming passages to walls of bright glare that end so abruptly that you bought out of your trance with quite a thump.
Packaged in stickered black digipak with eye popping artwork by Ekca Liena with hand numbered insert and hand stamped disc. Limited to 100 copies.
