Lots of state51 goodies to share with you this week..
We kicked off our Singularity series with a track from Siavash Amini
On Tuesday we announced the launch of our Singularity series, which features the best experimental artists producing long-format pieces: demanding tracks for long attention spans.
Starting with Siavash Amini’s 18 minute experimental track ‘Not Yet Plant-Life, No Longer Flesh’ and accompanied by releases from Shit and Shine and Alison Cotton.
Mary Anne Hobbs described Amini’s track as a “A very special piece - I would implore you to listen to the whole piece in full at your earliest opportunity… you must promise me!”
Each 12” lathe-cut record is single-sided, engraved and hand finished in the state51 Atelier as part of a super limited run.

The second bundle of Singularities will be dropping in February, with music from Ghold, Matmos and 75 Dollar Bill so keep your eyes peeled for announcements.
