The Caretaker Vinyl

Inspired by the 2010 study on alzheimer s disease that has shown patients remembering new information with the aid of music the fifteen small memories fade in and out of focus sometimes ending abruptly sometimes appearing twice on the album.

The caretaker vinyl.

Each album will reveal new points of progression loss and disintegration progressively falling further and further towards the abyss of complete memory loss and nothingness. First in a series of six albums by the caretaker to be released over the next 3 years slowly cataloguing the stages of early onset dementia. Some of his original pressings fetch 300 on the secondary market so i doubt this blue vinyl variant will make through the day. The project used very old recordings as a means to convey themes of mental disorder and its impact on the way the mind works.

If you love the ballroom scene from the shining the crackle of an old 78 or if you re just a big fan of conceptual art then the caretaker is essential listening. The caretaker started as an atmospheric side project to v vm using 78 rpm and ballroom recordings in tribute to the haunted ballroom scene from the shining.
