translated to english:
I bought three cassettes in recent years. Or actually I only bought one, very recently. Burn My Letters by William Carlos Whitten. Issued on a real cassette label, I Heart Noise from Boston, Massachusetts. The other two cassettes were bycatch, one with an Enablers LP and one accompanied the CD The Rarity Of Experience by Chris Forsyth & The Solar Motel Band. The cassette is back. And although things will not go as smoothly as with the LP, take a look at the De Bandjesfabriek website and be amazed by the loving and beautiful work that Thomas Baur is doing there. Burn My Letters is still untouched in plastic. The download is sufficient, but to be honest I would have preferred to put a CD in the closet, in addition to that of Grand Mal, the band with which Bill Whitten has made some beautiful albums since the end of the twentieth century. The highlight was Bad Timing (2003). The last two, Congratulations You've Re-Joined The Human Race (2007) and Clandestine Songs (2010) actually appeared on the Swedish Groover Recordings. Bill Whitten was once in St. Johnny, just like Grashopper from Mercury Rev. While Dave Fridmann often had a hand in the production and recording of Grand Mal albums. Sometimes we also come across Joan Wasser. Or Parker Kindred, which can also be heard on Burn My Letters. In addition to Brad Truax (Home, Interpol, Jah Division, Soldiers of Fortune), Justin Russo (Hopewell, Mercury Rev, The Silent League) and John Rauchenberger (August Wells). Who is Bill Whitten? I once saw a photo of his Christmas gifts on a blog that was no longer worded. One of the books in the stack was written by Giorgio Agamben. I think I hear the thoughts of the philosopher in his music. These days he earns his money as a limousine driver. He rarely leaves New York. He recorded Burn My Letters in a friend's apartment, he used his recording equipment and his musical friends. Who are also his musical friends, of course. He looks like his father, a man with a militant past, who emigrated to America, went to study philosophy and married a Catholic woman. Burn My Letters knows the sound of rippling air and clouded water.
