JON HASSELL - Further Fictions - 2CD [MAR 3]

2CD - Double CD anthology of the music on the vinyl editions containing both "The Living City" & "Psychogeography". Housed in hardbound book style packaging with spot gloss, and an extensive 32 page booklet containing sleevenotes and archival images.

The Living City captures the Jon Hassell Group in September 1989 performing as part of an audio-visual installation inside the World Financial Center Winter Garden in New York City, with Brian Eno mixing the band live.

Psychogeography is a situationist re-thinking of the 1990 City: Works Of Fiction album, a carefully edited sequence of alternate takes, demos and studio jams put together by Jon Hassell in 2014 using Debordian philosophy as his guide.

Both are available on vinyl for the first time, each album cut across four sides by Stefan Betke aka Pole, and presented as deluxe gatefold vinyl editions with printed inner sleeves containing commentary from Hassell, Eno and new interviews with some of the other musicians involved, alongside archival images from the period and download card for the full album.

Further Fictions is a double CD anthology of the music on the vinyl editions (as well as over-arching title for the reissue campaign as a whole), with a disc devoted to each album in hardbound book style packaging, and an extensive booklet containing sleevenotes and archival images.
