a collection of pieces which are more layered and textured than the normal guitar work from Joe+N. still mostly guitar generated, but with more effects and even some vocals to boot. from the label.... "By day Joe Tunis runs Carbon Records, a project that began in 1994 as a means to release his own Joe+4=Poopie cassette. Located in Rochester, New York the label has since gone on to birth releases by such esteemed acts as Dead Machines, Cock ESP, Reynols, Blood Stereo, Tom Carter, Ming, Bjerga/Iversen, Emil Beaulieau and Yellow Swans among countless others. Carbon releases come on a variety of formats (clear 7” singles, triple CD’s, DVD’s etc) and usually come wrapped in meticulously rendered artwork or some form of tactile outer packaging, each aural/visual missive being a testament to ingenuity and good old fashioned hard work. In amongst this Mr Tunis also finds the time to release music under the name Joe+N and has built up an exhaustive and prolific back catalogue on Carbon and various other like-minded labels. For his FirstPerson disc we are treated to 5 untitled tracks of stream of consciousness vox and downer guitar scrabble. Those familiar with the work of Joincey, particularly in his Wagstaff/Coits mould of the early to mid 90’s, will recognise subtle comparisons specifically in approach and attitude that being music which burns bright with the white heat of creativity “in-the-moment”. The “message” and actual “doing” of the work overriding any technical aspects or peripheral logistics connected with recording “quality” or concessions to “correctness”. This is music borne of passion and a need to document that which lies incommunicable in the language of the everyday. "
