    New Ultra Limited Vinyl Release

    New release limited to 333 vinyl copies. Replicast includes Multicast members Jeff Holland and Dave Alexander; with Eric Allen from Apples in Stereo; free-jazz sax player Zach Shaw. Replicast is a loose collective appling the techniques and technology that Multicast has used for years.

    The LP falls on the axis between Electronica, Free Jazz, and Psych-Folk. This melodic release explores new directions and will please Multicast fans who have appreciated the packaging and improvization in the past.

    Check out samples of the news tracks on the Replicast Myspace site.

    If you are a analog synthesizer nut like us, you will be interested in seeing some gear we are selling. Please see Museum Modulars For Sale website.

    UPDATE: Note that all are sold except for the Steiner. I've decided to hold onto this piece unless I have an offer that I can't refuse. Many folks have wanted to buy it but when I ask for an offer no one gives me one...what's up with that?
