California composer Phil Geraldi's vinyl debut both refines and refracts his signature muse of interstitial Americana across 11 melted glass mosaics of processed guitar, decayed radio glow, and Harmonia synth horizons: Rural Deceased Undiscovered. He describes his vision for the pieces as "multilinear," rearranging classic radio songbook elements like hooks, choruses, and emotional cues into unfamiliar topographies of "alien country." Shards of acoustic guitar and pedal steel flicker in long shadows of amplifier hum and airwave static, like the scrambled broadcast of some heartland station along a desert highway. It's music both rustic and placeless, warped by weather and technology, shimmering like northern lights over the badlands.Mastered by Jared Carrigan.Sleeve design by Jo Minor and Matt GoldbergInsert design by Anthony Boruch-Comstock.
