About Plankton Wat

"Crystal Wizard" cd-r on Stunned Records out now! I'm super stoked on this one, definitely some of the best music I've recorded in a solo context, wrapped up in some tripped-out hand drawn cover art by yers truly. Other recent releases include Plankton Wat "Alchemy of Darkness" cassette on DNT Records, Sagas/Plankton Wat split cd-r on Solar Commune, Eternal Tapestry "Seas of Silk" cassette on Digitalis, and Eternal Tapestry "Mystic Induction" LP on Not Not Fun. Watch out for the upcoming Bloodbiker 6 song 7" on Not Not Fun. This shit is gonna be crazed!!! For info or booking contact me at dewmah@hotmail.com. Thanks! I also play lead guitar in ETERNAL TAPESTRY, blast fuzz damaged punk in BLOODBIKER, and sometimes thump bass with JACKIE-O MOTHERFUCKER. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

DNT Records	Sep 2 2008 4:43 PM new review of the tape: "On Alchemy of Darkness, Dewey Mahood of Eternal Tapestry takes us on a sloshy, interstellar ride filled with waves of wah-ed out electric guitar. Bringing to mind some of the acid-bluesy explorations of Matt Valentine and the electric ripples of Tom Carter, Mahood has crafted an album that is as simple as it is otherworldly.The first side starts slowly with tentative, measured guitar figures that are slowly bathed in reverb, becoming more and more prolonged as they begin to overlap. These gorgeous overlapping ripples begin to take on an edge, with a slight bite of distortion keeping the whole mess from drifting off into the ether. Continuously refracting into gorgeous peaks and valleys, this wonderfully long first side is finished off with more steel string guitar bathed in ambience. As the jams on the second side of Alchemy of Darkness rock and sway in the waves trailing from Mahood’s ever-spacey guitar, the dreamy mood that makes this tape so wonderful becomes comforting and warm. With such gorgeous execution and flow, Alchemy of Darkness becomes one massive, droning meditation that won’t be leaving my tape deck for a good while." -c60 radio (http://c60radio. wordpress. com/)

DNT Records	Jul 29 2008 1:30 AM Paypal buttons on the website. http://www. dntrecords. com DNT020 - "Mash Mansum" $6ppd US/Canada $12ppd International The time is now! It's summer and here's the year-in-the-making (delays) now-wave tape compilation "Mash Mansum". Some of these bands have broken up since giving their songs, but believe me, all the bands on this tape are ALIVE. While Hunting Lodge wait patiently for the bus, Neck Hold attack each other with their drums. Shearing Pinx stay put in the forest. The Sticks try to work it out. Gay Beast approach middle-age. Deaf! Deaf! aren't so hungry anymore, and Twin Crystals umm..well they've been eaten alive. Pro manufactured tapes in green shell with the DNT logo on the tape. Artwork and screen printed covers by Danimal (of Gay Beast). Edition of 100.

DNT Records	May 5 2008 10:12 PM DNT034 - Plankton Wat "Alchemy Of Darkness" cassette $6ppd US/Canada $10ppd International "Plankton Wat is a beautiful, graceful thing of looped and picked acoustic guitar, following a wander-glimmer-drone structure that psych fans in Portland should be well aquainted with. With barely any of the cacophony or aggression Eternal Tapestry sometimes builds to...[this album] beckons us to fall back into our own head. Not the busy part–the worry and chaos cortex–but, the part that I’ve had a hell of a time finding lately, the pocket where our thoughts go when we’re perfectly happy to just drift and stare." (Willamette Week description of PW). Edition of 100 on pro-dubbed red tapes, with art by Dewey Mahood. http://www. dntrecords. com
