Description

In the early sweat of the 2020 pandemic, ‘Sex Sells’ quickly emerged and dissipated as an online release: a remnant of grimy physicality and grinding interaction which was thrust aside as the world retreated. ‘Sex Sells’ is driven by Andy Bolus’ mangled tape mutations, made all the more vivid by Christian Stadsgaard’s sharper electronics counterpoints. Disappointment, tease, degradation and release all find obscured voice in the exchange of ‘Sex Sells’, the first but hopefully not the last manifestation of these two’s late night explorations.

The cassette is packaged an oversized card sleeve, each of which has been uniquely collage with torn magazine advertisements and then obscured by layers of paint, glaze and iron-aluminium granules. These things took forever to assemble. A handful of copies made their way to the USA for Andy’s summer shows, and now the rest of the world gets to play catch up. Limited edition of 75 copies.
