Roland Kayn Tektra CD Box Set + Original LP

https://rolandkayn.bandcamp.com/merch/tektra-2021-1984-combo

Expensive? Yes, but still actually cheaper than the prices this super rare LP is going for on discogs and I'm assuming they are sealed?!?!? The family is involved so maybe they had a stash.

Whoa, this sounds amazon. Completely unfamiliar with this guy, got a recommendation where to start?

in addition to tektra

also this comp was put out a while back

Recently his estate has been putting out a lot of previously unreleased material that has been mastered by Jim O'Rourke. Its kind of overwhelming at this point so I mainly stick to those ones I mentioned above, which is still a huge amount of music.

Its worth reading up on his process and how it tied into cybernetics, for context. Pretty crazy stuff!

tektra, actually.

Instabuy holy shit !

huge news, and it’s not a repress, but the original 1984 vinyl boxset 

holy grail landed safely at home 

Looks great! I think I’m in for trying out the CD box. Curious if anyone has any suggestions for the best place to buy for the USA. Looks like boomkat has it, but the shipping may be pricey…

For those who missed it, the combo cd and boxset 6 Lp is back, 199 €, treat yourself ! 

Got my copy in the mail yesterday, along with with a nice hand written note from Ilse Kayn.  This record box looks so pristine, I'm afraid to open it
