- Temporary Residence will release the majority of Eluvium's back catalogue as a specially packaged 7x12" box set.
Eluvium is set to release a specially commissioned 7x12" box set containing most of his recorded output, in addition to some previously unreleased material.
The Portland-based ambient producer has been in the recording game for five years now, and has decided that now is the time to round up his previously CD-only material on this compendium, entitled Life Thorough Bombardment. Temporary Residence Limited, who are putting out the box set, have roped in previous Eluvium sleeve designer Jeannie Lynn Paske to design the artwork for the lavishly packaged release. Each record is packaged in its own full-colour jacket featuring new and exclusive artwork from Jeannie, and these are packaged in a hardbound cloth-cover book.
The set also includes a removable library card. Each library card is numbered and hand-signed and by the artists and designers, and you even get your own name printed on there. It doesn't end there though, as the package will come with digital downloads codes for all of the tracks featured on the vinyl, ideal for if you're too lazy to get up and turn the records over.
At the moment, they're only available for pre-order through the Temporary Residence website, and the run is strictly limited to 1000 copies.
