  • William Burnett, AKA Willie Burns, will release two mini-LPs under the Black Deer alias over the coming months. The first, The Last Tortuga, will see release on London label Emotional Response on October 7th. This will be followed by a six-track record for Peak Oil called S/T, due out November 12th. Burnett's Black Deer alias was first spotted earlier this year on Rush Hour's No 'Label' series: according to the producer it's a moniker that allows him to make music that is patriotic to his US homeland. The two records will arrive amid a busy run of releases for the W.T. Records founder. He's teamed up with Torn Hawk on a couple of 12-inches—one white label for L.I.E.S and an EP (that also features Secret Circuit) for Rush Hour under the name Circuit, Burns & Hawk. He also has a cassette release for Sex Lies Magnetic Tape in the works, as well as a second Willie Burns EP for Will Bankhead's Trilogy Tapes label, though release dates are still TBA. Tracklist The Last Tortuga: 01. Highway 02. Circle Dance 03. Tortuga 04. Route 242 05. Meditation 06. Tiptoe In The Sand S/T: 01. It's Like The Way It Used To Be 02. Rambling Rumble Stone 03. First Of September 04. New Break 05. Holiday 06. Strike 3 Emotional Response will release The Last Tortuga on October 7th, 2013. S/T will come out via Peak Oil on November 12th.
