  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Special Limited Edition (25 copies only)! CD is housed in a 3D-printed ‘prison cell’ outer case (with metal bars), CD and exclusive sticker.

    These ship only from Austria (with tracking). We have kept the Special Edition CD cost reasonable to compensate.

    DUE TO BANDCAMP'S "REVENUE SHARE" SYSTEM (AN ARBITRARY FEE THAT VARIES WITH NO REGARD TO THE PRICE), AND PAYPAL (ANOTHER FEE), I RARELY MAKE ABOVE 65% OF THE SALES (DIGITAL OR PHYSICAL), MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO PAY FOR COSTS RELATED TO CREATING THE MUSIC, AND OFTEN THE PRODUCT YOU HOLD IN YOUR HAND.

    I HAVE TRIED FOR YEARS TO KEEP COSTS LOW ENOUGH THAT THE LOSS WAS MINIMAL, EVEN SO FAR AS CHARGING LOWER THAN THE ACTUAL SHIPPING COSTS, BUT THIS IS NO LONGER SUSTAINABLE.

    YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT AND UNDERSTANDING IS QUITE WELL APPRECIATED.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Stanford via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.     ... more

about

Utilising an arsenal of vintage analogue equipment, coupled with modern production techniques, ‘Stanford’ takes us through those six days from the very start to its premature end. As its young subjects became increasingly traumatised and deranged day-by-day, the sense of fear and dread builds steadily from the percussive opening track throughout to the final ominous and brutal analogue-driven finale. Combining elements of classic horror film soundtracks, power electronics, and raw, improvised sounds and samples, ‘Stanford’ is the definitive aural statement of what took place in the basement of California’s Stanford University Psychology facility that fateful week.

Although now widely regarded as deeply unethical, along with other contemporary psychological experiments of the time such as Milgram, the six days of the Stanford Prison Experiment nonetheless offers chilling proof of how rapidly humans can descend into the darkest of states, both as oppressor and oppressed. The music on this record is inspired by the experience of all those who took part.
