about

~Debut full length album entitled 'Recovery Position' by -currently- Mount Isa, QLD based avant-garde act Utility Structures [ie. Blake Patrick], following last year's offering.. '(Restricted Sounds)' cassette on chem imbal, which solely featured a few of his superb field recordings/found sound material ...
and for anyone keeping tabs, played his first [& only?] 2 live performances at the label showcase #III in 2018 @ Henderson Rd. Alexandria warehouse and then @ Knox Bar, opening for The Spiders' [aka James Heighway] double cassette LP 'Bit Offset' album launch!

~Limited edition of 25x glossy white C90 tapes in clear norelco cases, digital D/L card included - available to order NOW!

"This album was recorded in sudden outbursts of fire between 2018 (Blue Mountains/Sydney) - 2021 (Red Hill/Toowong/Longreach/Mount Isa) in an attempt to showcase the ethereal nightmares telecommunications technician Bronson Harry endures during his spiritual battle between darkness and light after uncovering a dark secret through machines he has been assigned to maintain."
