Exile On Mainstream presents an incredibly limited release from CASPAR BRÖTZMANN BASS TOTEM, with the mailorder-only The Lovers And Destroyers LP.

100% pitch black bass guitar beauty! Played and recorded in one live session without alterations or overdubs at Berlin’s own Tomatenplatten Studio in June 2024, recorded and mastered by Max Power and Caspar Brötzmann, The Lovers And Destroyers LP marks the first release by CASPAR BRÖTZMANN BASS TOTEM. To honor the legacy of the groundbreaking A’larme Festival and its last installment it was made available in a strictly limited first edition of fifty units on August 10th, 2024, where the composition was played in its entirety as a one-off performance. The record contains one composed piece which was split into two parts to accommodate the two sides of a record. A CD is attached containing the total track as one.

The total pressing of the record is 300 and Exile On Mainstream is happy to be able to make the full run available now. As much as the musical piece and the recording is a labor of love the packaging is as well: Each record is hand-lettered and manually ennobled by the artist himself containing liner notes, info, and details. Each record is hand-numbered and is a unique piece of art visualizing the dedication and passion that went into the composition and recording. Every record is a one-of-a-kind piece of art.

The record is pressed on 180-gram black vinyl and comes in a poly-lined inner sleeve with a special litho art print and a CD containing the musical piece packed into a 3mm spined sleeve. The album will be available from the Exile On Mainstream webstore only, shipping October 7th, released on vinyl with the CD bundled; there is no separate CD release, no distro, no stores, no retail.

CASPAR BRÖTZMANN BASS TOTEM’s The Lovers And Destroyers LP is now available for preorder at THIS LOCATION.

This is a mailorder-only title; there will be no promo servicing of this album.
