Observations from the Lab for March 2024
As we find ourselves at the end of what was ultimately a nigh imperceptible Winter, GoatVision Labs has prepared a bounty of news: sights, sounds, and trinkets certain to delight and excite any online esotericist!
Greyson JS has released his second track of the year, G to Shining G:
“This new instrumental track [is] a contemplative and heartfelt dedication. raw emotions, a proclaiming theme, and pent up energy eventually fall apart into a a swirling cloud.”
The song is available on Bandcamp, streaming, and via YouTube visualizer.
moth_OS has released a new mix of its song Bit Deth which was originally released with short notice last Fall. See December 2023’s Observations for more information about the song. Bit Deth [Extended] has also received a new mix, so be sure to listen to both versions! Bit Deth is available on Bandcamp and streaming.
Pictures of the extremely limited cassette tape release of the Progressive Polka Project’s confounding and corporatizing new album, Polka, Pizzazz, and Polkas, have finally arrived:
Fresh from our subterranean warehouse where a team of lederhosen-clad elves has been hard at work, may these photographs serve to whet your plastic-encased ferric oxide reel-craving appetites until their beautiful subjects finally begin to ship on April 19. Until then, you can also preorder the tapes on Bandcamp, and listen to the Polka, Pizzazz, and Polkas on Bandcamp, streaming, and via YouTube visualizer.
Finally, we’ve kept the most grand and surprising news for last: This Spring, GoatVision Labs will be releasing a series of cassette tapes from Jerry. For those unfamiliar, Jerry is an underground cartoon legacy artist highly regarded in the most discerning circles of avant garde aficionados for his incredibly diverse and prolific 60+ album career. After a lengthy dispute with the old label, GoatVision Labs was able to secure the rights to issue four extremely limited cassette pressings of particularly potent selections from across Jerry’s discography.
Each month from March until June of 2024, a new album of Jerry’s will begin shipping, available on physical media for the first time since the old 20’s bootleggin’ days! March’s album is a reissue of the 1978 classic, Senior Fuel. Featuring a jazz standard, a suite of absurdities, and a wide range of genres, Senior Fuel displays the true sophistication of Jerry and his band; a perfect start to this series of releases, and a perfect introduction for anyone who is unfamiliar with Jerry! Preorder and stream Senior Fuel on Bandcamp ahead of its March 29 ship date!
In addition to the above news, The Goat Wizard has successfully completed their most absurd experiment yet, as teased in the previous Observations post. As this project simmers to completion, we can assure you that history was made. So obviously continue to watch this space for updates on this, the above, and many more experiments to come.
Until next month,
- Madson
