DaoDaoism by Regicide Bureau & NNN Cook

Part of the world-wide cabal of experimental home-tapers, St. Louis-based Thomas Sutter, cut his teeth during the heyday of early 1980s underground cassette culture. His Regicide Bureau project has been running strong for 30+ years publishing his exploits as an electroacoustic trickster of sorts. Around 400 cassettes and CD-Rs of his head-scratching and genre-defying sound art and music have been put out to date. Many of these editions are concept albums, displaying a myriad of sounds from the pensive to the chaotic, with themes ranging from esoteric Buddhist teachings to homages to his favorite writers and painters. Released via his own private imprint or through an impressive list of legendary 80s tape labels such as Sound of Pig, HalTapes, Deaf Eye, and Harsh Reality Music these works have established him as a restless and prolific artist. DaoDaoism is a collaboration of an opaque and mystical nature with NNN Cook working as an assistant towards Sutter's role as he puts it a "midwife to enigmas."
