Release News

A couple of things about forthcoming releases....

Cathedral Transmissions will be releasing a cdr of demo recordings from the genesis of Yellow6 entitled 'OLD'. Recorded between 1995 and 1997, these 8 tracks preceded the first Yellow6 releases. They were recorded on 4-track tape or 4-track minidisc recorders and mixed to cassette, with tape transfer and mastering by Daniel Lovegrove at Code-Red. This will be available from Cathedral Transmissions website soon.

There will also be an incredibly limited box set version. there will only be 6 copies of this packaged in a box containing OLD along with all the Yellow6 material released by October Man (Loops, Notes and Sketches, Live, If You See Something Say Something)

Three copies will be available as auctions on eBay shortly. Full details are here:

http://www.cathedraltransmissions.com/page2.htm

more on that as soon as they are available.


Also coming soon will be the LPs In Time This Too Will Fade on Tonefloat and the TQA/Y6 split 'Death' on Basses Frequences (test pressings are done) and the CD close/r on Editions6.
Merry6mas is also underway so will be available in November. I plan to make available a package deal where you can buy the 2 LPs and 2 CDs together and they will all be shipped at the same time. watch for news...

samples of close/r are available to listen to at the Yellow6 soundcloud page:
