New the Books: "Beautiful People"



The Books are set to release their new record, The Way Out, on Temporary Residence this July. Always an interesting listen, the Books are found sound collagists who pair tape recordings with folk styled instrumentation which they play themselves. For the new record, the guys amassed some 4000 tapes containing everything from hypnotherapy sessions to pitch shifted talkboy recordings, sorted out the gold and composed music for each tape collage.

Check out our first taste of the new record: Beautiful People.
