FEATURED ALBUM: 

Disorganism Visits The Museum

by

various artists

Released 31.10.2024 on <1

45 tracks, 6hrs 44 mins

From the last feature which was the shortest ever, to this the longest one so far - in fact at nearly seven hours it has been necessary to adjust the playing as the feature slot maxes out at two hours. Therefore, over the duration of the feature, the entire 45 tracks will be set to randomise which will certainly give the listener a good feel for the album and will ensure all tracks air multiple times.

Housekeeping out of the way, onto this absolute treasure trove of an album. From its very conception, DVtM (if I may) was inevitably going to be shrouded in mist. Coming from two utterly mythopoetic sources: an imaginary/approximate entity/being/coagulation (Disorganism) and a notional institution ‘which is more accurately said to be located in time than place.’ (The Museum Of Viral Memory).

The story goes that the Disorganism’s visit was captured on the various surveillance devices in The Museum and, along with what it recorded itself, the output became 13 source tracks of unintelligible but strangely readable provocations.

The entire document being thrown to the mercy of the internet, you could say these 45 interpretations unlock the encrypted sense, or indeed abstract it even further. Meaning being entirely dependent on context and in and of itself is completely spurious. In any case, what these contributing artists have achieved is metallurgical and what now lays before the listener, glistens.

It would be futile to attempt any audit of these wondrous confabulations as each is in some way a mirror of its creator and an alchemical, nay magickal, metamorphosis.  (And there’s just too many.) Water may or may not have been turned to wine but one feels that the old sow’s ear has been transformed into some pretty high quality accessories.

There is, as there should be in any museum, dust, promises, missing items, abandoned time, synodal ichthyoses, some form of guide booklet and a gift shop from which to steal souvenirs. In this you will not be disappointed. In other aspects you may be completely desolated.

How does one approach listening to a nearly seven hour album? 

Recklessly of course!
