L.A. RECORD are longtime fans of Magic Lantern—our Mae Moreno was the first earthly human to ever put them in print—and although Lantern is now fragmented between California and Oregon, Magic Lantern guitarist (and lately Pocahaunted member) Cameron Stallones’ Sun Araw is hitting some kind of wild stride. Latest release is this In Orbit cassette, released on Lantern percussionist/trumpeter/beyonder Phil French’s Stunned. Says Phil:

Sun Araw (feat. Matthew Lessner) — In Orbit c30 (Stunned no. 51)

Sun Araw’s Cameron Stallones & filmmaker Matthew Lessner are longtime Stunned brothers that go back with us before the music, the tours, the films, the label, you name it. As tireless globetrotters, both have spent the last year beaming their respective good messages far and wide to the delight of audio aficionados & visual art subversives alike. Marking a Second phase in all our geosynchronous friendships, ‘In Orbit’ finds these dudes collaborating on ascendant planes of high mind where outer Los Angeles and Inner Space bisect. Deep dubby howlin, Farfisa organ hang-gliding, gooey tempos, and trademark shimmering ‘Araw-guitar licks are the hybridized fruits harvested here. Along with your candy, flip this tape as needed. Happy to say, there’s no limit to the number of orbits it can (and will) make through your stereo and ours. Special edition of 222 pro-dubbed & imprinted c30s with jcard design by Cameron.
