03/11 peccant batch
first two tapes on the peccant label
PCNT 11 - m. geddes gengras / jeremy kelly - 'MGGJJK2K10' c45
the material for this split was recorded in 2009 and released in 2011, so let's split the difference. the first in an endless series of splits and collabs by modular BFFs MGG and JJK. gengras' side acts as a follow up to the grittier sounds of his 'Pink Trails' CS combined with the trippier deep-mix qualities of the split with a.m. shiner. endless moog mantras framed against the grainy rumblings of his modular synth. kelly explores the darkest corners of synthesis and comes up with the headiest blend of deep space music, musique concrète, and early electronic composition, reveling in sound for sound's sake. initial pressing of 50 copies
SORRY, SOLD OUT
PCNT 12 - m. geddes gengras - 'magical writing' c45
two pieces for moog and euro-rack modular system. recorded in early 2011, reflections on loss and damage, the power of the word. gentle melodies evolve into elegiac walls of sound, crackling around the edges with subtle electricity. one of the more austere works in the MGG catalog. initial pressing of 50 copies.
SORRY, SOLD OUT!
dubbed on chrome tape with black and white jcards. $6.50 ppd in the US. contact at gedgengras(((A.T.)))gmail<-dot->com

04/10 peccant batch + new distro'd title
M. Geddes Gengras - Deep Moon Time cd-r - D.M.T. was conceived as a follow-up/companion piece to Total Body Loss, the gentle id to T.B.L's raging ego. spare synth lines are bathed in reverb, offhand loops grow in significance, champagne meditations bubble up through cracks in the plastic. solo moog pieces for quiet moments. in manilla envelope w/ photocopied collage cover featuring a theme of man vs. time. limited to 25 copies.
Talisman — Initiate Into the Mysteries c43 (Stunned no. 73)
Early in 2007, Mark Ledoux and M. Geddes Gengras stepped into a Philadelphia recording space for a week and simply tore it up together, performing a multi-instrumental alchemy with guitar, bouzouki, mandolin, glockenspiel, dulcimer, bells and drums. The result of this dive into free-shredding folk and alternate-scale acoustics was ‘Initiate Into the Mysteries’ — the Talisman duo’s one & only album first issued as a highly limited CDr on Night Goat Records. Stunned was fortunate to score one of these rare early editions, and ever since it has been a favorite jam no matter what time of day or what mood we’re in. Now on its third birthday, this tragically-overlooked masterwork has been dusted off, re-edited, and re-mastered with care by the band. We’ve additionally transferred it to high bias chrome tape along with all new art design. Let’s just say it’s about time. Talisman’s skill in fusing cloaked twilight dirge with sun-blinded modal reverie is totally compelling, and displays some of the more technically-accomplished passages heard from either members’ inimitable output. Let the mysteries resonate strong as ever with our renewed attention and this special second issuing. Limited edition of 111 pro-dubbed & imprinted c43 tapes with double-sided color jcard and insert.
'211 in Progress' + 'Outer Space & Inner Triumph'
BBM SERIES cd-rs
the first two volumes of the Bootleg Bruton Music series, these two albums were compiled by M.G.G. from his collection of music library records, and are focused on the works of the '70's label Bruton Music. heavy HEAVY psychotic synth moves and crazed copsploitation, moon-walk tunes and stake-out grooves, all genres are explored, all possibilities entertained. each disc is >70 minutes of DEEP CUTS mixed up and remastered for extra BASS by M.G.G.
check out these tunes for an idea:
each disc is themed with appropriate cop/skateboarding full color collage artwork. limited to 30 copies each. SORRY, SOLD OUT..

NEW PECCANT RELEASE
only a few copies of this, act fast if you want in
OABL - s/t cd-r
OABL is a new musical outreach/outrage by m. geddes gengras (antique brothers, pocahaunted, robedoor) and caitlin c. mitchell (metal rouge, warm climate). submerged synths run down omar souleyman tracks against deep drone enviroments, while pocket trumpet and percussion loops form with deep moog bass to voltron into momentary weird synth bangers. brittle on first inspection, but melts like the finest dark chocolate into a full on underwater kraut-scape. this release is edited from the first recording session by the pair, a single track running just over 40 minutes. all live, no overdubs. recorded at GREEN MACHINE studio & dog kennel in feb 2010.
22 copies, SORRY, SOLD OUT.
