THE FUN YEARS – score shared in SOTA's Creation – track name: “My Loweville”

About The Fun Years

The minimal experimental sounds of the Fun Years are produced by turntablist Isaac Sparks and baritone guitarist Ben Recht. The unusual instrumentation often leads to tracks over ten minutes long.  After a handful of their own recordings on CD-R, the duo was brought aboard by Brooklyn's Barge Recordings for its first proper release, Life-Sized Psychoses (April 2007).

About Jasper TX

JasperTX is the musical moniker of Sweden’s Dag Rosenqvist.  Using electric and acoustic guitar, piano, pump organ, melodica, glockenspiel, voice and various other instruments as a foundation for his compositions, Dag has managed to create his own musical universe.  Elements of post rock, drone, improvisation, noise and lo-fi aesthetics are all filtered through a skewed melodic pop sensibility, often resulting in something quite unique.  Since his debut album back in 2005, Dag has been releasing albums on labels such as Miasmah (no), Fang Bomb (se), Kning Disk (se) and SMTG Limited (us).  Over the years, he has also collaborated with artists such as Machinefabriek, Aaron Martin, Mike Weis (from Zelienople) and Simon Scott (ex Slowdive) and in addition to that he’s been doing remixes for several artists from a wide variety of genres. Over the last couple of years he has performed live in the USA, the United Kingdom, Norway, Belgium, France, Sweden, Denmark and Germany.Dag Rosenqvist is currently residing in Gothenburg, Sweden.  You can find out more about Jasper TX by visiting www.myspace.com/jaspertx
