Don Campau’s No Pigeonholes with a special on L’Edarps A Moth

What sounds like an obscure hometaping artist, who produced tapes in the years 1984-1995 – tapes that were send all over the globe to fellow hometapers, is in the years 2016 a respected book producer who received multiple awards for his book designs.

Don made a selection from his songs and sound works. Expect experimentations and melodies, and someone singing in German, and of course a lot of couleur locale from 80s and 90s Germany.

Best to be listened to wearing mintgreen sunglasses.

In case you wonder about the name, try to scrabble a bit with the characters t, h, o, m, a, s, p, r, a, d, e and l.
