Description
Up for auction is an EXTREMELY RARE vinyl single by CEDRIC BIXLER ZAVALA of THE MARS VOLTA and formerly of AT THE DRIVE IN. In 2005 Cedric released this record on GSL (Gold Standard Labs). I have included a write up from wikipedia below, FYI. These are really hard to find, and are a must-have for any fan of THE MARS VOLTA, ATDI, or Cedric Bixler Zavala and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez in general.
From Wikipedia - "Under the pseudonym "Alavaz Relxib Cirdec", Bixler-Zavala contributed a 2-song single to the GSL Special 12" Single Series, released in December 2005. The inversion of his name is very appropriate, seeing as the musical styles shown on his GSL 12" single would be unexpected to an uninformed fan of his more mainstream contributions. Closer to the Dub of De Facto and the ambient experimentation shown in Omar Rodriguez-Lopez records than the prog-rock of The Mars Volta, the two songs Bixler-Zavala has produced under this alias are entirely instrumental, with the exception of samples of speech that can be heard on "Live Private Booths". "Live Private Booths" is a funky Fela Kuti-style jam featuring flute, drums, bass, guitars and samples, while "Sapta-Loka" is a more ambient exploration of eastern-style drones, with subtle, haunting instrumentation."
2 tracks: 1) Live Private Booths and 2) Sapta-loka
I have 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK for a reason, I aim to please and ALWAYS succeed! Paypal only.
PLEASE NOTE: This record was released by Gold Standard Labs via MAIL ORDER ONLY, and has NEVER BEEN SOLD IN STORES. These are really hard to find. Thanks for looking.
