Original Press Release:

'Kye is proud to present Home of the Blues, the latest LP by Dan Melchior, and his sophomore effort for the label following 2012's now legendary Excerpts (& Half-Speeds). For Home of the Blues Dan agreed to undergo a series of exercises aimed not only at destabilizing his natural songwriting process, but also testing the durability of the blues idiom when placed under stress. As one would expect, Dan met the challenge with aplomb, hoisting the project beyond some one-dimensional art-school prank, toward a sincere and multi-faceted presentation of damage and survival as sound. Home of the Blues arrives in a full color, high gloss sleeve featuring original artwork by Dan, with an accompanying 18" x 24" foldout poster, in an edition of 400 copies'

Recorded at Tigergod Ink!

Deep, mind-bending psych. I don't know how it was put together, but it feels very organic, like early Nurse With Wound. I could see Gordon, Dilloway, and Nace sitting among a pile of junk and miles of tape, splicing together this album piece by piece. Levrikon
