{"product_id":"weeks-island-droste-lp","title":"Weeks Island - Droste LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Weeks Island project began in 2018 when, itching for \u003cspan\u003esomething during a break from his gig playing guitar for the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrammy-winning Cajun group Lost Bayou Ramblers, Jonny \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCampos ventured to his bandmate's house and recorded a series \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof deep, amoebic, ambient pedal steel passages across two \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eafternoons. It wasn't all heavy, though: he paid that bandmate, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKirkland Middleton, in Cane's chicken strips. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe tracks on Droste are named for bodies of water that no \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003elonger exist, their names wiped from maps thanks to the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edisintegrating shorelines of Southern Louisiana. That feeling of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eimpermanence hangs over this record - the tracks don't so much \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebegin and end as slip in and out of your consciousness. It can be \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ea serene passive listen or a deep one that marinates long after \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethe runout. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDroste originally appeared on Nouveau Electric Records, run by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eanother Rambler, Louis Michot, in 2020, digitally and on cassette. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDFA picked it up via an connection from LCD Soundsystem's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKorey Richey, and began a years-long process to cut the record \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto vinyl, a task made difficult by the sharp pedal steel and waves \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof harmonic distortion that color the music. After more than a few \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003etries and the addition of three brand new tracks, Bob Weston \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eat Chicago Mastering Service nailed it, and it was pressed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebeautifully at Furnace Record Pressing in Alexandria, VA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3124258456\/size=small\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/artwork=none\/track=173284980\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DFA Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68551550075122,"sku":"jui1793853057526","price":17.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/0151\/4994\/files\/weeks-island---droste-lp_1.jpg?v=1793853066","url":"https:\/\/charlottegold.shop\/products\/weeks-island-droste-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
