These are the tapes at the Half and Half right now:
DIM HOLYS - IS THERE HEAT RISING IN YOUR NECK - OSM-B 011
Brian Mumford's bliss-drones for sleeping. Brian has an amazing talent for turning harsh digital noise and homemade synthesizer howl into music that hits on a very emotional and intuitive level, which is what makes both Dragging an Ox and Dim Holys such remarkable projects. Really beautiful art by Dana Dart McLean. $5

DRIPHOUSE - SEWER MIST - GEL 03
Synthesizer fever-dreams from former Raccoo-oo-oon member Daren Ho. Very mellow krautrock vibe, like the soundtrack to a lost Herzog movie. Drifting arpeggios and hypnotic repetitions, sometimes beautiful and calming, other times ominous and unsettled. Excellent stuff, with art that looks like it was taken from a video game about Weimar Germany. $6
