Provide safe harbour;

The seeker has no place to turn

And through it all : A solitary prayer;
A broken record loop-like chant for deliverance
One foot in oblivion;  Hanging by a thread of Hope

In Offeration and Dedication to You,
the One, the Eternal, of whom all things Are
Give thanks and praise each and every hour

TheWhereBetweenYou&Me is the dubwise sequel to
TheCallFromBelow; part two combination excursion style

BRUK PLASTIC!

When two heavyweight forces collide,

The inevitable displacement of weak shit is sure; 

Trunks rattle, illusions are tested, dancehall a bruk!

Inna dis ya new outing, wzrdryAV & seekersinternational

aim their sights against all weak-mindedness and set their phasers 

to "KILL";  undoing fake formulas lest we ourselves become undone

Take up the fight here and sign up against all weak shit

"...cos when we come fi nice up the place it's trouble!"
For your direction, for your satisfaction!

Lost and Found 45s Vol.1

Recent flash floods in Metro Manila continue to cause 

miscellaneous debris and forgotten material to resurface with the tides - 

like elements of the murky subconscious rising up for reckoning

A covert envoy to the Philippines has brought us back

one such washed-out and encrusted artifact:  a mystery recording

we have aptly (re)titled Lost & Found Vol.1

Zig-zagging its way thru caverns inna u area

Echoing spaces shrouded in tape deterioration and dust;

Patient in its unfolding; A Stealth Sound Murderation

With zero information on its roots and origins,

We the listeners are spared from relying pon trivial data for orientation

Having now only the Sound to contend and deal with in its rawest form

Limited edition of 300 hand-numbered records on stark ghost-white vinyl

Original label art by artist/collaborator MYSTERYFORMS

Hand-stamped paper sleeves.  Made in the Philippines.

{editor's note:  Digi versions were recorded from the original test pressings, capturing and preserving all the lovely grit and nuanced materiality of vinyl.  Not all 300 copies survived the floods, however.  Others were warped, cracked and/or moulded beyond repair.  Collectors and music-lovers, reserve yours direct.  A kind thank you to ZamZam Sounds for reminding us about this once-lost recording! }

UnityInnaDancehall 199X

Offered to do a program for CFRO 100.5 FM Co-op Radio's 

Art of Beatz show, SKRSINTL immediately seizes the opportunity to share

one of their most revered -and often referenced- recordings in their collection

Acquired at a high school dance in San Juan, Metro Manila in 1993,
this curious, un-labelled cassette quietly stood out from the stack of underground
mixtapes being sold by Social Distortion Mobile, the deejays of that affair

"We have since then christened this
theretofore un-named tape:
UnityInnaDancehall 199X"

"This live recording was really what turned us on to Dancehall and
Sound System culture for the first time;  we couldn't have imagined a tougher,
more impactful introduction to the art form than this!"  -  SKRS

{editor's note: ethnomusicologists and amateur sound archeologists remain baffled by the above claims as the recording in question seems to traverse chronologies and defy all rationale behind its alleged origins.  We are not entirely sure if what we are hearing is an actual live recording of a dancehall  from another dimension or a completely composed audio piece.  Debates regarding this tape continue, but experts already agree: in this heartical tribute to the finest in Dancehall culture, SKRSINTL lovingly obliterates our all too restrictive definitions of what a radio broadcast, a live recording, a deejay mix, a soundtrack, and a compositional piece can or cannot be.  A unification ting seen!}

The Call From Below LP on WAX!

     "Digitalis aren't known for their dub affections, but SeekersInternational's 'The Call From Below' is a choice pick for this always-interesting imprint. Coming from an unknown soundsystem posse, it sounds something like Rhythm & Sound meeting Actress and Vladislav Delay for a knockout zoot round Pole's place; essentially a destroyed dub session of the finest calibre, with initial copies coming to you on purple wax."  

                                                                                                                                                                           - Boomkat
