review of julia ladense- bored housewife


i have no idea what is going on with this tape but it's really cool.
just one kind of odd thing after another, a bunch of really cool sounds fill up the whole thing. if i'm not mistaken, there were only sixteen of these made. when i ordered the tape, she wrote right away thanking me and sent me a zip of the mp3's so i could juke forthwith. how's that for customer service. i think of the sounds on here as experimental soundscapes. kind of like if you lived next to a recording studio and you constantly heard muffled parts of songs coming through the wall and at times you sort of had a dis-embodied listening experience and floated away. very interesting blend of common and far out sounds. here is a person that knows how to get the most out of the format. lo-fi, weird and good.
