Horse Lords + Ka Baird - US Tour 2024

Released one year ago, Horse Lords’ Comradely Objects. A recalibration of the possessive relationship to the object engendered by capitalism as a means instead to promote collective, egalitarian ideals, and a honkin’ album to boot. It’s been a treat watching thee Lords storm stages from afar this past year, while waiting patiently for their US tour dates with Ka Baird next year. Complete dates below, and some sonic surprises from both Horse Lords and Ka to follow.

Echoes, Spaces, Lines - NYC Listening Event - 11/02/2023

Today we share “Alpine Flight,” from Pauline Anna Strom’s 1984 album Spectre. For Pauline’s third album, “sounds were culled from concrete, glass, and steel, from cold arctic temperatures and elusive spacious voices.” Perhaps our favorite album at RVNG HQ.

Spectre is included on Echoes, Spaces, Lines, our forthcoming collection of Pauline’s first three albums (and an unheard fourth from the era), remixed under her guidance by Marta Salogni from the original tapes and remastered by Anne Taegert at Dubplates Mastering.

If you are in NYC next Thursday, November 2, we are hosting a listening event for Echoes, Spaces, Lines at In Sheep’s Clothing. Come listen to Pauline’s music on an insane sound system and pick up an early copy of the LP or CD box set. 🦎🌌

Looking back at ¡Ay! one year later

A note from Lucrecia Dalt on the occasion of ¡Ay!’s one year anniversary:

¡Ay! is one year old today. And talking about timeless love, I wonder what it is that makes a record become a premonitory act? Or is it possible that just for the sake of portraying potential, chaos takes over and does whatever it takes to make it all happen?

I always saw this album as a vortex, a ‘quiet’ one like Tarkovsky’s. If I throw myself in, will I come out to the other side complete? Or fragmented? The reality is, that when I thought I was just thinking about it, I was already falling. And when I thought I was just fragments, love, supreme love, brought me out to the other side, complete, sublimated and ready for the next adventure.

Thanks to all of you who have listened to ¡Ay! in your homes, in the concert spaces, and to all those close to me who have supported me in making sense of it all.

Tin Iso and the Dawn Record Release at Public Records

“Puppeteers tell true lies, developing that craft feels like magic and is well worth the difficulty. it’s primal, raw, direct and makes people want to believe”
Tristan Allen performs the shadow puppet show scored by their forthcoming album, Tin Iso and the Dawn, next Friday, October 20 at Public Records. A one person production from beginning to end (Tristan and technical director Jim Freeman built the entire production from the ground up), the technical, creative, and emotional qualities of Tin Iso are truly awe inspiring and not to be missed ʚïɞ
We would love to celebrate next Friday’s record release with our friends and family around NYC. we’ll have the remaining Artist Edition LPs on hand (!!!)
