2x12" LP on Red Vinyl - Repress
During the early days of Deepchord Records, Detroit's transient and forgotten subculture musically inspired label founders Mike Schommer and Rod Modell in significant ways. The apex of Mike's creative fixation with the city was in 2001 when he recorded the Von Schommer album dc15. To capture the nature of the environment he found so fascinating, Schommer recorded the project at the Crown Motel in Detroit, Michigan. While overlooking the transient life displayed in the motel courtyard, Mike crafted lonely tones from his modular synthesizer and mixed them with his rudimentary DIY electronics. Still, most significantly, he allowed the music to become impregnated by the environment (much like the stains in the permanently soiled carpets of the motel room floor), creating a holistic experience that remains close to his heart almost 25 years later.
Initially available as a limited edition preorder cdr to the Hypereal 313 maillist, the album has been remastered and is now available on colour vinyl for the first time.
Original photography and treatments on tracks untitled 4 and untitled 10 by Rod Modell.
Release Date: November 18th
