Magic Tuber Stringband (Evan Morgan and Courtney Werner) is an instrumental duo often employing traditional Appalachian-style playing within contemporary drone and song-oriented contexts to create undulating, cathartic, organic compositions. Weirs (Justin Morris and Oliver Child-Lanning) is a bit more stylistically diverse, but very much rooted in the fascinating crossover of traditional and contemporary music which is recently abundant in the mid and south-Atlantic states.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eRecorded live with field recorders inside Virginia’s pitch-black Crozet Tunnel, the album presents four individuals experiencing the beautiful and intense sonics of both interior and exterior space, and their own forms of communication with one another. The singing in particular is powerful. Flat, strong broad voices without vibrato evoke a sense of the tragic or stern, notable in opener “Bright Morning Star” (originally a Masonic hymn which entered the American folk lexicon)—as if things might at any moment descend into dissonant sadness—but then become gentle and anodyne, trafficking not in freak-folk innocence but authentic connection to their sources.

Side B is an entrancing altered playback of the music from Side A, re-recorded under a dome behind a science museum in which the surrounding ambience layers seamlessly with the music: bird and insect sounds, shuffling movements, a child’s voice. Far from feeling performative or even conceptual, this feels earned and intimate, teaching the listener about the interplay between the music and the site of its creation. That the musicians semi-jokingly refer to this side as a “dub version” reflects the depth and breadth of their vision.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Weirs and Magic Tuber Stringband\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Notice Recordings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ecat no : NTR088\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2025-04-04T13:57:49+09:00","created_at":"2025-04-04T09:44:13+09:00","vendor":"Tobira Records","type":"","tags":["ambient","drone","jazz","monooto","new","notice recordings","recommended","tape"],"price":212000,"price_min":212000,"price_max":212000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":47236335075578,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Weirs and Magic Tuber Stringband \/\/ The Crozet Tunnel TAPE","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":212000,"weight":60,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei1_4e09899f-1462-4453-9df9-0f49fb0666e6.jpg?v=1743727331","\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei2_60889962-1d4a-4abe-97a0-592f7f5cfb1c.jpg?v=1743727331"],"featured_image":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei1_4e09899f-1462-4453-9df9-0f49fb0666e6.jpg?v=1743727331","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":35832962777338,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"width":700,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei1_4e09899f-1462-4453-9df9-0f49fb0666e6.jpg?v=1743727331"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":700,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei1_4e09899f-1462-4453-9df9-0f49fb0666e6.jpg?v=1743727331","width":700},{"alt":null,"id":35832962810106,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"width":1200,"src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei2_60889962-1d4a-4abe-97a0-592f7f5cfb1c.jpg?v=1743727331"},"aspect_ratio":1.333,"height":900,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/tobirarecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/wei2_60889962-1d4a-4abe-97a0-592f7f5cfb1c.jpg?v=1743727331","width":1200}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eアメリカ・ノースカロライナの実験フォークデュオWeirsとMagic Tuber Stringbandが、2024年12月に同国NYの実験レーベルNotice Recordingsから100本限定でリリースした共作カセットです。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eバンジョーやフィドル、ゴングなどによるアメリカーナ・ドローン〜インプロ2曲73分を収録。版元即完のためお見逃しなく。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eマスタリングはGiuseppe Ielashiが担当しています。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e※デジタル音源を無料でお送りいたしますのでお気軽にご連絡くださいませ\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3736920966\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=none\/transparent=true\/\" style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eレーベルその他作品は\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/noticerecs\"\u003eこちら\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\/\/\/ Click \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/collections\/noticerecs\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e to see more Notice Recordings releases available at Tobira. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCassette in norelco case. \u003cbr\u003eEdition of 100.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e1.
