// Sam Gas Can - Dog Dance


My Artwork for Sam Gas Can's "Dog Dance"

Behold Sam Gas Can in all his glory! Massachusetts-based genre-melting musician, sound/comic artist extraordinaire. This cassette tape sounds like a wonderful, murky journey through the forest. The album artwork says it all. Out now on Digitalis ltd.

ltd#78: sam gas candog dance” c22

sam gas can is one to leave you wondering endlessly and wandering aimlessly. it all starts with a low-key dance party for your favorite haunted asylum. manic voices and near-tribal beats plummet like a meteor through the clouds. you walk into this mental ward with no fucken clue how you got there. luckily there’s clarity on the horizon in the form of uber-melodic synth passages that will guide you like a drunken sailor back to the shore. the morning brings pump organ catharsis that’s bathed in warm white light. hypnotic vocals fill the air while the melodies grind along underneath. it’s blindingly emotive – you can’t help but be drawn in by the familiar comforts of each note that gently takes you home. beautiful stuff from one of the most underappreciated artists in massachussetts.

edition of 75, pro-dubbed.
