{"product_id":"boeldt-benny-8-of-cups","title":"Boeldt, Benny - 8 of Cups |","description":"8 of Cups is the first record under Benny Boeldt's own name after releasing three albums as Adventure on Carpark Records. 8 of Cups veers from wacky to beautiful to chaotic; using gorgeous melodies, hyperactive noise, and off-the-wall samples. The title is a reference to the tarot card, which Boeldt found to be an accurate representation of his life as he made the album. The 8 of cups card embodies the start of a new journey, a transition, growing apart, and accepting one's faults to move on. The foundation of this strange, gorgeous, other-worldly record is made of VHS tapes. Boeldt began 8 of Cups by culling through tapes of anime, horror, sci-fi, even instructional videos, and collecting hundreds of samples; then arranging them on a digital sampler. Boeldt began composing via MIDI and altering the samples through various hardware filters, effects, amps, and microphones in his Baltimore studio. Vinyl comes with a download card housed in a single sleeve.","brand":"Love Vinyl Records","offers":[{"title":"- ALT\/INDIE *NEW*","offer_id":49263821455602,"sku":"1FA57R-11QB-KT","price":24.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/alt-indie-new_AEeEd.jpg?v=1779751199","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/boeldt-benny-8-of-cups","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
