More Description
This is a lovingly made artisanal on-demand chapbook of the artwork, lyrics and liner notes for the "Brace Yourself for a Blast" album by PhilTunia (BipTunia + Phil Wormuth).
PhilTunia is Phil Wormuth (words, talking) and Michael W. Dean (BipTunia: music, singing, and here, talking).
While this book is fine supplement to the album, unlike most lyrics, these work on their own, even for people who have no interest in the music.
Phil and Michael were best friends in college in the American rust belt in the early 80s. They recently reconnected to combine the skills they've honed over the decades. The result is PhilTunia.
You can download the music free or listen streaming at jipprod.org, biptunia.com. You can buy it at Amazon, iTunes and CD Baby. You can stream it free on Google Music and Spotify.
Since albums are digital and don't have gate-folds anymore, this chapbook is the accompanying lyric sheet and liner notes that would have come with a physical album back in the early 80s.
"Brace Yourself for a Blast is electronic music that's heavy without being harsh, welded seamlessly into spoken word that doesn't suck." --Cash Newmann
BipTunia: Melodic Heavy Electronic Music That Doesn't Hurt with Poetry That Isn't Bad
Most people say their music is great and groundbreaking. But this actually is.
BipTunia makes bleeding-edge electronic music that's heavy, melodic, not harsh, and is very listenable.
BipTunia is Michael W. Dean, who was in the Warner Brothers band, Bomb.
BipTunia's new record "Brace Yourself for a Blast" is a collaboration with spoken word artist Phil Wormuth.
Phil Wormuth is the founder of JipProd, a poetry collective in rural Maine.
"Brace Yourself for a Blast" is also available free as a single-file that works as a piece (think "Dark Side of the Moon" or "Sgt. Pepper's").
"Brace Yourself for a Blast" sounds unique, but would appeal to fans of Pink Floyd, Nine Inch Nails, Richard Brautigan, Hubert Selby, Bukowski, Gary Numan, Brian Eno, David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, Depeche Mode, and Kraftwerk.
