SQUINT RELEASES

undo, des tournages, squint 00N

Tout tourne ces mots : le cercle, by the dog, I believe que ce mot de ceux pour qui la terre tourne is singular : une ligne droite rigoureusement prolongée, plural : un cercle éternellement without a center which, to advance, tourne sur lui-même. L'utilisation du vide à la non-perdition of heat for all ce qui concerne l'habitation et la locomotion is turning, c'est exister like the ancient men who invented names, like the philosophers that always get dizzy as they turn round and round in their search for the nature des choses : this cyclone habité par l'immobile. Originally recorded in 2002 and performed once at l'Oeil de Poisson in Québec City and never previously released.

Fan-CD (mini CD within a transparent full-sized CD), front jewel case is scratched by a microphone 100 times in a circle pattern. (2008)

Christof Migone, Rimmed Record, squint 00M

Vinyl records physically reduced to just the outer rim, packaged in silk-screened recycled record covers. Playable at your own risk. Edition of 100. (2008)

Veda Hille & Christof Migone, Escape Songs, squint OOH

Escape Songs. Made by Christof Migone (Montreal) and Veda Hille (Vancouver), at secret yearly meetings in their homes between 2000 and 2004. Small sounds, tiny war machines, mistakes, hair, spit, lucky licks and yes, songs. The very songs we wish to escape from. Songs escaping from themselves, escaping to an escape. Veda and Christof wrote little songs, recorded them, and then fussed around until they became other. An organization of those little voices that distract, that you listen for, that you attempt to cultivate or bat away. Songs escaped. squintfuckerpress is putting it out. Like it or have a sympathectomy.

CD digipak with a line of dots in clear varnish on the cover.

Escape Songs. Collaboration entre Christof Migone (Montréal) et Veda Hille (Vancouver) concocter durant des rencontres secrètes à chaque années entre 2000 et 2004. Petits sons, mini-machines de guerres, cheveux, crachat, lèchements et oui, quelques chansons. Ces chansons dont on aimerait se soustraire. Des chansons qui s'échappent d'eux-mêmes. Veda et Christof les ont écrites et enregistrées, puis ils ont fignolés jusqu'à qu'elles deviennent autre. Une organisation de ces voix intimes qui nous distrait, qu'on écoute effrayé, qu'on souhaite cultiver et en même temps faire fuir. Les chansons décampent. squintfuckerpress édite leurs fuite. à apprécier, sinon allez à l'hôpital pour une sympathicectomie.

CD digipak avec une ligne de goutes de vernis transparent sur la couverture.

undo, un sperme qui meurt de froid en agitant faiblement sa petite queue dans les draps d’un gamin, squint 00A

undo is Christof Migone and Alexandre St-Onge. Instrumentation: microphones. Site: mouths. The duo’s variations on the ‘microphone in the mouth’ theme (tape hiss on max, mumbled voices, sub-vocal sounds, etc) are like so many shades of grey. Appropriately enough, the track titles are taken from Samuel Beckett’s “The Unnamable.” And the grey cover is something Beckett himself might shave ‘warmed’ to. (Phil England, The Wire).

CD in jewel case with hand silkscreen and metal wire.
