This is the premiere episode of the fully analog (recorded & constructed) HAUNTOMANCY TAPES series of analog sound magicks kasted into the aether of the modern ‘podcasting’ current. This series that treats the medium like a Dharmic Vajra and wields heavy art and musings through Hauntomancy, Audiomancy, collaborations, exaltations and vexations.

SHOWNOTES:
This initial episode of the analog Hauntomancy (hauntology-of-the-self-audiomancy & magick) cassette cast was constructed with haunted and archaic ways of recording and production. Computers were only used for final sound quality and distribution.
All musick heard was performed live & recorded live to 4 track cassette tape.
The 2023 Videosigil Vigil live Audiomancy (Sound Magick) Dim Sessions tether the piece throughout. If a track is not noted, it is from this very session:

Why, oh, why care about such outmoded technologies?
I aim to marry true communion with the thirdmind of neither analog, either/or digital in my audiomantic works, BUT BOTH with intentional and ritualistic means– free from digital sequencing or using samples of any kind outside my own custom ones made from my somatic creating. I’m not going full Steve Albini as I still believe in the DAW as a magickal tool, but I will be utilizing the digital audio workspace only for distribution, audio cleanup and mixing / mastering — largely keeping its infinite ease to “create” at bey, as the easing of many of rough and tumble processes of recording and songwriting, let alone audiomancy and podcasting, have fallen victim to indistinguishable and dishonest bores of same-y-ness.
Staring at a computer screen to easily non-linear edit a cut-up of stock samples or auto-generating noise all have their place within the umbrella of audiomancy, just not with me! It’s easy to make something clean and standard! I believe true audiomancy lies within the somatic experience — the abandonment of expectation, and the invocation and celebration of human error — to conjure my personal communion with the self and the other… so… Everything is performed live (aside from my haunted 70’s analog rhythm machine, Herbert, and custom programming played from a Korg Drum Machine) – each sonick #musick #soundsigil is #improvised utilizing only #glossolalia to channel “words” where there were never any! Warts and all!
