just got home from work and was so stoked to find this LP waiting at the door for me -- luckily it wasn't warped (considering it's been so goddamn hot here in Austin). listening to it now and it sounds so great on vinyl. from john elliot himself:
“the first in what hopefully could be a long line of low run vinyl documenting underground outsider music, "Last Vacuum Demos" are essentially volumes of previously released low run cassette jams w/unreleased recordings from the sessions. Tracks from the c60 series a while back and the unreleased material from that. Jeff Hatfield on his Moog and John Elliott on various synthesizers and electronics. Clouded out, space music..if you like "Lightyear Demonstrations" or "Pyramids on Mars" era Outer Space styles, you will surely enjoy this album. Limited to 200 hand-numbered, hand stamped, white label, "no test press, just bust" lps in thick recycled chipboard jackets. No repress for any of the upcoming ltd series lps. LPs from Watchword, Headboggle, Lilypad, and more coming later.”
if you like this kind of synth exploration hurry up and get a copy here at Mimaroglu. they still have copies available. Experimedia is sold out (but is still a great place to find small run limited stuff like this and lots of great experimental music). Get it quick it's gonna be gone in a heartbeat!!
for a little taste of similar sounds to this LP check out Outer Space -- Pyramids on Mars
here
this was part of a trio of Outer Space C60 cassettes that also included "Eastern Veil" & "Timespace Projection." completely essential listening.
