The second release on Tartaruga will be the debut full length from Brassica, aka Michael Anthony Wright. This record will be available from the 21st July 2008. As with the previous Tartaruga releases, this will be a strictly limited edition of 200 individually numbered copies, available to purchase directly from our online shop and a few select other sources.
A journey through the sound world of Brassica, the album features a diverse range of sonic textures, structured compositions and 'small electronic pop songs', all tied together through a coherent musical approach. Featuring various instruments and electronics, the attention to detail on every small part of the record is exceptional, and rewards repeated listens.
