CASSETTE 3390 JPY

Dubuffet was no musician, but he was certainly bald. Here's a fun tape of strange beats, noise and DIY pop built around the odd phrase "Música Careca" (bald music), which Art Brut champion Jean Dubuffet supposedly used to describe his own sonic experiments. Discrepant's sublabel Sucata Tapes releases this cassette by outsider artist João Hã.

Assembled from material recorded on cassettes and obsolete gear over 15 years ago, mixed together with more recent recordings, it's a blend of irregular percussive thuds, woozy noise, tape decay and distortion — exposing the passage of time and the physical wear of sound itself as music. Raw, bare-boned sonic textures. João Hã himself calls it an "accidental Frankenstein": deviant music born of chance and drift. The moaning vocals(?) and whistling are oddly heartwarming, too. The lo-fi cover of The Kingsmen's garage rock classic "Louie Louie" (sample3), tacked on like a bonus, is a treat as well. (Original Japanese text by Adachi)
