Music From Memory<\/strong>‘s final compilation of 2017 sees the release of the double album “1 By 1”<\/strong>, which brings together the works of American experimental musician Geoffrey Landers<\/strong>. During a period spanning from 1979 to 1987, this Denver, Colorado based multi-instrumentalist, composer, record producer and engineer, conceived several solo albums. Only two of these, \u201cThe Ever Decimal Pulse\u201d and \u201cHabitual Features\u201d along with the single \u201cBreedlove\u201d were ever released on vinyl.<\/p>\n

Being heavily involved in the local industrial\/punk\/new wave scene and wanting to create a recording studio \u201cavailable to record artists regardless of their financial circumstances\u201d Landers<\/strong> set up \u201cThe Packing House Studio\u201d in 1981. This analog 8-track recording facility was located in a former slaughterhouse in the stockyards of Denver and was a place of significant activity for the next three years with the studio releasing recordings from numerous artists most notably Allen Ginsberg.<\/p>\n

It was here that Geoffrey Landers<\/strong> also started his own aptly named \u201cCauhaus\u201d label. Indicative of the underground\/DIYculture, \u201cCauhaus\u201d was a subsiduary of a label called Local Anaesthetics which was started as an in-store label by independent Denver record store Wax Trax. Typically Cauhaus releases were only pressed up in small quantities and independently distributed, making Lander<\/strong>‘s music essentially elusive to a wide audience. After relocating in 1984 to an art district of Denver Landers<\/strong> opened the \u201cCauhaus Institute of Recording\u201d studio where he continued to produce music for soundtracks, art and multi media projects for the next three years, after which Landers stepped out of the music industry entirely. He currently creates and exhibits mixed-media glass art.<\/p>\n

Throughout the twenty tracks of “1 By 1”<\/strong>, of which six previously appeared on CD only, we are submerged into a wide diversity of musical approaches from Geoffrey Landers<\/strong>. From the proto-house track \u201cLogarhythms\u201d and the heart breaking New-Wave Boogie\/Funk of \u201cSay You\u2019ll Say So\u201d to the more contemplative pieces such as the oriental insprired \u201cNisei\u201d and the drenched in sunshine dub\/reggae track \u201cMack\u201d Landers<\/strong> shies away from musical expectations again and again; searching continually for innovative and new forms of expression.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
