Title:  Pancake Alley Artist:  United States of Belt Label:  Chloe/Champs Format:  CD Price:  € 12.00   Mp3 samples:   1   2

Title Description:
Chlo‘ Recordings and Champ Records (of Troy, NY) have teamed up to present the third release from United States of Belt and the first split release for either label.

"Pancake Alley" is a 40 minute sound collage composed of field recordings made around the USA between 1999-2004. The sounds are unmistakably American; the aesthetic, uniquely Beltian. The result is somewhere between a mythic tall-tale and a dream of wandering, as vast and colorful as crossing America in a 1972 Airstream Excella.

The CD comes packaged in a lushly printed, heavy-stock paper package (with insert) that is itself a work of art: brightly painted signs, fantasy images from youth, and photographs of far-away familiarity. Images and design by US of Belt; cover painting by Mr. Joe Signs that
Go.
