Become

First CD edition of Sutekh Hexen's critically acclaimed reel-to-reel / 12" "Become", along with an exclusive bonus track, 'Vestibule', serving as an extraordinary junction in the listening experience. "Become" centres on vortex, repetition, and inducing trance-like states. Immersive blackened noise, dubbed onto recycled vintage reels of 1/4" tape. Each reel has been hand-selected from a stockpile filled almost exclusively with an assortment of antique radio programs, muddied classical orchestrations and doomsday sermons about the book of Revelations. The level of audio decay is entirely dependent on the previous life of each tape reel, varying between typical tape characteristics to extreme degradation where the source material is nearly unintelligible.

Adorned with stunning artwork and layout by Kevin Gan Yuen and source photography by Patricia Cram. Mastered by James Plotkin (Khanate).
