From our 2006 one sheet:
From the vaults of Portland's underground we bring you Reanimator, one of the city's most unusual electronic music groups ever. The master tapes were nearly destroyed in the Hurricane Katrina disaster last year, so we are incredibly thankful to get the chance to release these now! Directly inspired by leftfield electronic, noise, and techno artists such as Pan Sonic, Force Field, and Mouse on Mars, but most closely resembling the first of these, Reanimator were experts at improvising heavy, synthetic, syncopated, and dubbed-out minimal beat music using the barest machinery. With a handful of mismatched drum machines, test-tone oscillators, budget samplers, and delay pedals, and improvising directly to ¼” tape, they created a huge body of work, ranging from the pacific, chord-backed “Phase Constellation” to the polyrhythmic thump of “Special Powers.” This collection demonstrates the band's rugged “pirate” ingenuity and DIY inspiration as they forged into the unknown hinterlands of minimal, handmade electro-techno- or as the band called it then, “evil dub.”
Uncompromisingly eclectic since 2005. Operated in Portland, Oregon, Cascadia by founders Paul Dickow and David Chandler. Check out our sister label Common Language as well: commonlanguage.bandcamp.com
