The Lamp – False Memory

download version cover art

The first album by The Lamp was a limited edition of less than 15 and in accordance with the artist’s wishes, all masters were permanently deleted. For the follow up album, a download has been permitted but both download and tape were only on sale for one day (June 20th 2021). As a result, only four cassette copies are out in the wild.

in accordance with The Lamp’s “leave no trace” policy, no photos of the tapes were taken but this is a mock-up of what they looked like

The first album was simply a DJ set that got out of hand and accidentally became something else, but this is the first deliberate album. Side one a strange, scratchy ritual with weird rumbles and mumbles. Side two a stretched out synth symphony. Both tracks apparently have concepts behind them but the artist declines to share them.
