It’s
amazing to me how once you get into the cassette realm of sorts you’ll find
many bands crossing over between different tape labels that you like. Gora Sou just released this cassette on March
10th, 2014, but there is another tape they put out back in April of
2013 called “Music for Girls”. This
might not be worth mentioning, as bands tend to have previous releases some
times, except for the fact that the previous tape (Which has since sold out)
was released by Further Records, whom I’ve also recently been reviewing tapes
of. It is a sort of small cassette world after
all.
These
eight songs from Gora Sou are a collection of ambient instrumental sounds that
bring out the ooh’s and ahh’s. They have
some lighter synth ala Beverly Hills Cop, but mostly can be relaxing and most
likely also used for meditation. The biggest difference between “Living XXL”
and “Music for Girls”, quite bluntly, is that “Living XXL” is an edition of 100
copies, is available for $6 (plus $2.50 shipping within the U.S.) and is not
yet sold out.
So
the game plan here, as I am really enjoying Gora Sou and his various labels, is
to get the download of “Music for Girls” from Further Records and then purchase
this fine cassette from Noumenal Loom whilst you still can.
