*Limited edition of 170 hand-numbered copies. All include an additional art card on 300gr satin-paper. Packaged in clear vinyl sleeve with folded insert* "I Throw The Switch On The Midnight Snake" was created from field recordings captured along several train lines that transverse the Kansas City East Bottoms, Missouri, USA. These particular locations are unique because some of the trains routed through these areas make temporary stops to change conductors and/or conduct maintenance operations. Others, however, pass by uninterrupted and continue down the rails at full-speed. In this instance, the velocity of each train is notably distinct along with the character of sounds that accompany it, which makes these locations ideal for procuring a great range of recording content. I feel like the release captures what I'm wanting to say, in and of itself. Everyone will experience it in different ways, in their own minds. Maybe the entire process defers to the need for escapism." - Christopher McFall
