6.17.13: Watery Starve – Making Of A Butterfly Batch Video
You can count all of Watery Starve’s releases on two hands with digits to spare, but they’re already gripping some much deserved attention for their über unique and hands-on aesthetics. The first four releases (a super-heady comp “Shadow Colors And Maybe Insects”, Sparkling Wide Pressure, Stephen Molyneux, and label head Lynn Fister’s solo project Aloonaluna) featured photocopied Jcards decorated with hand-cut images pasted onto each cover. WATC-005, the “Taxidermy of Unicorns” 4-way 2xC60 split between the all-female cast of birds of passage, Je Suis Le Petit Chevalier, Motion Sickness of Time Travel, and Aloonaluna, kicked things up a fist full of notches. It’s packaging, including an oversized booklet, yarn, and leaves needs to be held to achieve maximum appreciation. Watery Starve’s latest offering of three cassettes, the Butterfly Batch, is just as special. Here’s a video of Lynn going over the process.

You can pick up each tape in the Butterfly Batch for $8.50, or all three for $20 here.
