Embalmer Tapes (diseccted)

We found one final copy of that long time sold-out album in our stocks ...
Last chance to get it !

In autumn 2000 a mortician, whose identity we shall not unveil, was given a mini tape-recorder to document an embalming session of his/her choice.
Only 2 requests were made of the embalmer :
1) to record everything from open the freezer till closing the lid
2) to forget about the tape.
The result was 68 minutes of raw sound.
Those 68 minutes were the sole sound source for Embalmer Tapes, Louis Fleischauer together with R|A|A|N dissected, sliced and reconstructed this recording into an eerie soundscape of post-mortem ambience.
Embalmer Tapes is a sonique exploration of cold flesh.
By only using sounds from the original embalming tape, AMF captured the unsettling atmosphere of the pre-room.
Let the dead not be forgotten, may they live amongst us through sonic energy.
