Great review in latest magazine about .cloud's album 'Digi-Tongue Twister' which came out recently! Still some ltd. edition items available by the way ➡️ escrec.bandcamp.com

"... zorgvuldig gearrangeerde, lang aaneengesloten, stotterende letterreeksen met intrigerend geluidsontwerp en grappige meta-uitspraken [...] die de onvolmaaktheden van de huidige kunstmatige intelligentie feilloos blootleggen."

OUT NOW! Step into the haunting soundscape of a dystopian future with Ontzieling’s debut ‘All These Moments Will Be Lost’. This record with Blade Runner-esque qualities is a blend of ambient and experimental music, meticulously crafted to immerse you in the eerie ambiance of a crumbling metropolis.

‘Ontzieling’ is an ambient project by , a music producer hailing from the city of Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The project meticulously explores the realm of soundscapes, dark versus light, drone, noise and lo-fi, seamlessly weaving them together with the modular synthesizer.

‘All These Moments Will Be Lost’ is released as a limited edition 12″ (only 100 copies!), pressed on red-black-transparant-galaxy vinyl with artwork by Herm the Younger. Also available as a digital download and on all streaming platforms.

TIP! Excellent solo album by Luc Ex! Listen and order ➡️ lucex.bandcamp.com

Tried to release this on Esc.rec. a while ago as per Luc's request, but just couldn't find the right amount of time to give this the attention it deserves. Just so much to do in the world and so little time 😅 Happy to see it is now out there, released on his own Red Note label. And with a very nice little sculpture by Alexander van Zanten, depicting a small version of Luc's 'Objet Sonore' - a big seven meter sound horn, designed by Peter Zegveld - in a cityscape. Beautiful.

Yesterday was Bandcamp Friday again and Esc.rec. sold out three releases (the 'Cävv' cd by Söll, the 'Always There, Somewhere' tape by Frond and the 'Metamorphosis' tape by Gamardah Fungus) and some t-shirt sizes.

But the Esc.rec. backcatalogue discount sale continues! So be sure to check out escrec.bandcamp.com to find other nearly sold out items before they are gone.

Photos from Esc.rec.'s post 02/05/2024

Just in time for another Bandcamp Friday tomorrow, we are continuing to celebrate 20 years of Esc.rec. with drastic discounts on backcatalogue items.

We sell the last two(!) copies of Söll's album Cävv (on cd in an elaborate fold out 6 panel cover with beautiful cave photography by Jorge Dos Santos Pandeirad) for only €3 >> escrec.bandcamp.com/album/c-vv

I'm sure by now you have found your way to the digital backcatalogue of the first 10 years, as all of these 47(!) releases are now priced '€0 or more'.

We have not yet sold out the other discounts in the previous batch, so here they are again, but cheaper:

- 'We Don't Rock' by Wild Wild Ambient Boys, ltd. edition cd, now for only €3 >> escrec.bandcamp.com/album/we-dont-rock

- A 'warehouse find'. Just a few (12) of these C64 Orchestra T-shirts popped out of a box we forgot about for 15 years(!). Black, high quality (Wizard Wear) with a dark grey embossed C64 Orchestra logo on the front and a tiny 'productiehuis ON' label at the bottom in the seam. Each shirt is wrapped separately in plastic and looks brand new. True collector's items! Comes with a silk-screened POKE 20 poster and download, for only €8 >> escrec.bandcamp.com/album/poke-20

- The POKE 20 poster with download. This poster serves as packaging for a blank CD-r. Poster and CD-r are both silk-screened and together they make a nice piece of art in a limited (and numbered) edition of 200 copies. The last copies go out for only €1 >> escrec.bandcamp.com/album/poke-20

Have fun shopping!

Kijk, vond een reeds lang uitverkochte .rec uitgave in een kringloopwinkel 😅 Dit project scoorde destijds oa. lovende recensies in OOR en Vital Weekly. Binnensuis was een onder de huid kruipend danstheaterstuk met danser Janneke Lenzen, muziek van Gluid (Bram van den Oever) en... teksten van Jehudi van Dijk. De fysieke uitgave is vormgegeven en met de hand gemaakt door . Digitaal nog verkrijgbaar via escrec.bandcamp.com (wel even een heel eind scrollen, want dit kwam uit in 2007).

Esc.rec. celebrates it’s 20th year this year! Which is quite an achievement for a small independent recordlabel, right? Proud to say we are currently working on the 112th release (not counting the many 'side projects') 🤯

We started celebrating late March 2024, combining it with partying for the 10th birthday of De Perifeer and the 50th birthday of Esc.rec. owner Harco Rutgers. Which was awesome. But there’s more.

Esc.rec. decided to clean house. Many of the releases in the backcatalogue of the past 20 years will be sold at (huge) discounts. Cleaning out storage, making room for the new. Mind you, most of these releases have extremely few copies left, so be quick to grab. For the most recent releases we maintain original prices for now.

This sale started already in De Perifeer in Havenkwartier Deventer, so plan a visit there if you want to get a head start (and will save you shipping costs). All discounts will gradually be added to the Bandcamp store, starting tomorrow, on . So keep an eye out, follow https://escrec.bandcamp.com to get updates!
