MANDARIN DYNASTY "Feedback Time" cassette tape

New Mandarin Dynasty album out now!
Official release date September 22nd, 2015. 

This is the third album, and first on Lost Sound Tapes, by Mandarin Dynasty, a long time musical project of Mike Sherk based in Portland by-way-of San Diego. It was recorded by Zach Burba of iji in the spring of 2012 at the beloved home and music venue the Funny Button. 3 years later, it's now ready for release. You can feel Burba's presence throughout the course of the album, between his production and performances across the album's 9 songs. 

"Feedback Time" explores the intersection between (mis)communication and detached daydreaming of distorted Marshall stacks. It can also be interpreted as a feedback loop between Burba & Sherk and the influence they've shared with each other during the course of the last 5+ years. The two have toured together, shared ideas, and recorded together in numerous states across the US. 

Cassette tape made in a first edition of 100 copies. Black cassette shells and hand stamped white labels with green ink. 

LP available from Keeled Scales.
