TLR 045-053, 055: oscillation III CD series

TLR 045-053, 55: oscillation III

released between early march and late april 2008.

along the lines of our two prior subscription CD EP series, purposeful availment and modern containment, we are pround to announce a new series based around the same model. oscillation III consists of nine CDs by nine different artists which are to be released over the course of 2008. these discs are available through three lobed recordings only as a complete set and not a la carte. there is also an accompanying disc (TLR-055) by the vanishing voice that comes free with a subscription the series (this disc will be available for individual sale). the contributors are (in alphabetical order):

each CD is at least 25 minutes long (or longer in most cases) and features new, exclusive material from that particular artist. each disc is only available through the purchase of a complete set or directly from the contributing band. again, these discs will *not* be sold individually by three lobed (except for a small number of copies of TLR-055). similar to the previous two series, there will also be a hand silkscreened slipcase to house the series. the slipcase for oscillation III will feature new artwork from robert beatty of hair police.

as for availability, only a strictly limited number of 550 sets will be available from three lobed recordings. cost per set is $80 postpaid for domestic sales ($86 postpaid for shipping to canada and mexico and $92 postpaid for shipping to all other locations).

subscribers will receive two separate packages to complete their set. the first mailing is scheduled for mid-february and the second is planned for late march. each mailing will contain approximately half of the series.

subscriber update #1 - all domestic packages are being shipped on monday march 3, 2008. all international packages will be shipped no later than march 5, 2008. start keeping an eye on your mailbox for the first six discs and the slipcase (see below). we advise that you do not try to assemble the slipcase until you have all of the discs in hand.
