The Lo-fi recording boom rose to prominence in the late 80's when new recording technology brought 4-tracks within teenager's grasp at an affordable price. Then only a few years later, Nirvana opened up the commercial market for underground music and virtually all of the home-recording pioneers stepped out of their shabby environments towards a new horizon of recording studio budgets. Simultaneously the 'lo-fi movement' was proclaimed and in this unfashionable dead-zone is where the Lost Decade series was made in private. Lost Decade is a rare look into the mountain of recordings Emil Amos amassed while in full-swing of the initial lo-fi revolution. This batch of Lost Decade tapes is taken from a crucial time of Emil's development (1996-2002) that he spends a lot of time going into on his acclaimed podcast Drifter's Sympathy. The Uninhabitable, Let's Go Downtown, Dead Raccoon, Hit the Switch, Luresyafar, Tears Stupid Tears, Compulsion, In Search of, I've Been Cured, Robbed ; Gifted (Ultra-Stoned Early Demo), Jokes Been Told, Blue Meditation, Standing Among the Stones, I Notice
