(OUT OF STOCK
Why?)
Label: Hello Square Notify Me (What is this?)
'No Signal' is a new statement of intent from Spartak, the first since 2008's 'Tales From The Colony Room'. Featuring three pieces from a recording session in January 2009 plus one recorded live in Singapore in 2007, these pieces see the boys explore the studio as an instrument, working with post-processing techniques and bringing their interest in early electronics and free improvisation to the fore.

Customer Reviews:
On 2009-09-29 00:00:00, 'Don Poe, EAR/Rational Staff Reviewer' gave the following review:
Spartak brings us an EP that touches different areas than their full length release, Tales from the Colony Room. This release is much more experimental - the first track stars very minimal with the sound of someone maybe cleaning their garage (haha, not really, but it has all sorts of bumps and rollings of metal.) Track 2 takes this and builds to the sound of an industrial plant, and ends with post-rock drone rock with drums. The third track touches electronics a smidgen in the way that the sounds are processed a bit. Spacey drums and odd sounds dribble across the speakers. Track 4 is a nice drone piece that would befit any good atmospheric record. Nice washes of sounds, the burbling creek of mild electronics and a wonderful shifting sound. THeir other release stayed much more in post-rock, and this one shows more of their experimental side.
