PV is honored to be handling exclusive USA distro for a bundle of new Spencer Clark (Skaters, Monopoly Child Star Searchers, Pacific City Sound Visions, etc.) cassette reissues. First up is a new tape edition of his 2011 Fourth World Magazine masterpiece, The Spectacle Of Light Abductions, which allegedly documents a "classic meeting of people with their own astral selves."

Clark is an artist who needs no introduction; his influence can be heard across much of contemporary lo-fi and experimental music, and Spectacle remains one of the finest moments in his never-ending discography. In all honesty, it’s always tied with Bamboo For Two when it comes to choosing our favorite release of his.

Spectacle, for all intents and purposes, is the purest form of Clark’s ingenious UFO mysticism, crafted using ultra-lo-fi synth drones, otherworldly samples and FX, and vintage space age pop tropes. It’s just one of those records that truly sounds unlike anything else. If you’re somehow unfamiliar with Clark’s surrealist, boundless sonic world, start here.
