Nathan Gwynne
Rock and Roll Record
Brooklyn, NY: N. Gwynne. 2009

Synopsis: "Rock and Roll Record is a double LP in Classic Rock tradition meets Post-Minimalist composition - an ultra-limited edition (only 50 copies pressed). Pushing minimal to the max, each album side contains over 20 minutes of epic sound. The recording process and listening experience are equally meditative feats of monotonous endurance. Stripped down to nothing else: it's only 'rock and roll.' Sides A and C: 'Rock...rock...rock, rock, rock...' Sides B and D: 'And roll...and roll, 'n'roll...' Listen to one after another or try our super-stony suggestion: get two turntables and spin A and D simultaneously. Play DJ to create your own absurd Dadaist sound poetry. Let it ride and hear lo-fi phase music bubbling up from the basement. One session, one take, but the last groove on each side is a lock groove which will play ad infinitum: rock and roll will never die! Likewise it will never be the same. Handmade in Brooklyn and packed in a silkscreened, die-cut gatefold jacket as crisp and clean as the Beatles' white album. This record is a must for the serious collector. We dig repetition repetition repetition." --from the label
