The Magic of the Think Machine Gods is the second vinyl release by House of Intergenerational.
Released hot-on-the-heels of House of Intergenerational’s debut 2LP, Soft Subversions, this new LP features two long-form works, one per side: “The Magic of the Think Machine Gods” b/w “The Intolerable Weight of Seventh Heaven”. The title track features the voice of Anglo-American queer writer, Christopher Isherwood, reading from his novel, A Single Man (1964). “The Intolerable Weight of Seventh Heaven” features the voice of African-American writer and activist, James Baldwin, reading from his novel, Giovanni’s Room (1956). All spoken word sonic source material is drawn from public domain recordings made in 1976 and 1967 respectively.
Pressed on white vinyl in a numbered edition of 150. Drawings by Bill Thelen.
