In truth, it’s already hardened into fact and myth – or in the case of this fantabulous GOD? release, into retrospective compilation, with the far-flung fascinations of the Folding Cassettes label repping the time and place for our dew-eyed purposes. Folding Cassettes was pretty much done and sorted when the new era of peak cassette improbably broke wide in the early 2010s. Back in 2001, when founded by Mike Donovan, it was more representative of the exclusive confines of the urban underground, well represented as always around the Bay area. Mike had been jitterbugging through the scene for several years, playing with this group and that, starting a label and releasing some actual LPs and CDs (to no avail) – and with notoriety fronting Sic Alps still several years hence, he had the time and energy to reach out and tap the shoulder of his fave local talents, not to mention legends, resulting in a sequence of dozens of SF-ite releases on Folding Cassettes. The various musics curated included everything from lo-fi to free-form to metal (so far as rock was concerned), with further genre distinctions including abstract electronics, laptop noise, contempo- jazz-fusion, country-folk and even comedy, all of it delivered with a highly demanding, archly punk sensibility. The players? Hailing from names you might recognize today – members of O.C.S. (multiple ones), Gang Gang Dance, Child Abuse, Krallice, Lightning Bolt and Comets on Fire, all of them getting down with the freedom and some truly head-cleaning sounds. Plus Kit Clayton (as himself). Mikey Wild. A slice of (the now-defunct style of) anonymous crank call comedy. And even a little number from curator Mike Donovan himself. All burned into vinyl for the first time ever. Sit with the LP, and while it’s literally pounding your skull and hooking into your cochlea, dig the back cover. Old school. The liner notes there unpack whats, whos and wheres for us, bringing other aspects of The Way It Was in those DIY days back into visceral life in all their manually typewritten glory. No details skimped. Personal memoirs and, of course, a discographical list of all 44 Folding Cassettes releases, including the unreleased Tits2 single. ‘Folding Cassettes Greatest Hits’ is a wild night on the old town and an earful that’s awful too – one of the bravest, most intense records you’re gonna hear this year.
