i don't
have an exact date for these files, so i'm picking november 11th. as
others were, i was concerned about the president abolishing the magna
carta after 9/11 and congress doing little more than helping him do it.
however, this was meant to be a more encompassing project that combined
harsh noise with political sampling that was pushing an anarchist
agenda. the name of the project (ftaa) was chosen as a pun - it could
either be the free trade agreement of the americas or about fueling true
anarchy in the americas. i ended up dropping the sampling aspect and
just focusing on the noise for the project's completion (which is the
ftaa release in mid 2004: jasonparent.bandcamp.com/album/ftaa
), so i'm going to upload these two pilot tracks (with the sampling in
tact) as an introductory single and place them in this more topical
chronological space.
in hindsight, i think there's something profound about juxtaposing the fair trade movement with the 9/11 attacks as, looking back, it really sucked the life out of the movement.
created in the fall of 2001. resequenced and rereleased on sept 7, 2014. disc finalized on oct 22, 2017. as always, please use headphones.
these tracks appear without samples on my seventh record:
jasonparent.bandcamp.com/album/ftaa
this release also includes a printable jewel case insert and will also eventually include a comprehensive package of journal entries from all phases of production (2001, 2014, 2017).
