TITLE TK - Title TK

"Title TK is an eponymous collection featuring ten performance transcripts from the conceptual band, Title TK. Band members Cory Arcangel, Howie Chen, and Alan Licht engage in unscripted conversations about music, the music industry, and popular culture, rather than perform music. Drawing inspiration from David Antin’s improvised “talk poems,” Title TK elevates on-stage banter to an art form, creating work that exists at the intersection of performance art, improvisation, and stand-up comedy. This volume charts the group’s development from 2010 to 2014 as they perform at a range of venues, from small clubs like Lit Lounge in New York to music festivals such as POP Montréal and museums including the Whitney Museum of American Art. With occasional help from guest performers, including music mogul Danny Goldberg and performance artist Michael Smith, Title TK’s performances offer wry, spontaneous perspectives on a myriad of cultural and musical figures and phenomena, including American Idol, Armand Schaubroeck, B.C. Rich Warlock guitars, CanCon, Dan Flavin, the Grateful Dead’s Dick’s Picks, Fugazi, Guns N’ Roses, Lil Wayne, Musician’s Friend, Seth Price, Don Rickles, Joan Rivers, Sacred Harp singers, the Situationist International, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, and much more. Title TK is a guitar trio formed in 2010 by Cory Arcangel, Howie Chen, and Alan Licht. Cory Arcangel is an artist based in New York and Stavanger, Norway. Howie Chen is a curator and co-founder of New Humans, a collaborative performance group, with Mika Tajima. Alan Licht is a composer, experimental guitarist, and writer who has performed with many bands including The Blue Humans, Love Child, Run On, and Text of Light. In 2013, Title TK’s first LP, Rock$, was released by New Images Limited. 6.5 x 8.5 inches 242 pages Paperback Edition of 1000 January 2017 ISBN: 9780991558506" - Primary Information.

After nearly a decade of false starts, multiple game plans veering off the rails, and a handful of shattered hopes and/or dreams, the odyssey is finally complete—the new Fusetron site is here.

This is the first phase of a multipart rollout that will span the next few months: the currently browsable stock includes miscellaneous new releases from the past 8+ months (we have a lot of catching up to do), plus approximately a third of our backstock. Note that we’ve reduced/slashed prices on many titles and will continue to do so in order to make room for new stock. We’ll also be expanding / tweaking / improving / debugging the site itself (for example, we still have work to do on the automated international postage system, not to mention the inevitable inventory discrepancies that come with transferring an ancient and massive database to a new system).

Over the next few months, as we take inventory, clean house, and delve into our storage, we will be uploading thousands of additional items, gradually, on a near-daily basis. This will include the majority of the LPs, as well as many titles, in all formats, once thought long-gone. Many currently “sold out” items are likely to resurface.

Finally, once our general backstock is up (probably in the next two or three months) we’ll begin making our extensive stockpile of rarities available online for the first time: tons of random out-of-print titles, "deadstock," warehouse finds, secondhand collectibles, etc., accumulated over the past few decades.

Frequent/returning customers will be getting early access to these items. Details to follow on how this will work (a priority mailing list? a 'frequent flyer'-like program?), but it will not be based on dollars spent. We want to reward those who consistently support us, especially in the discogs marketplace era (to those who show up trying to poach five copies of a one-off rarity, and nothing else, ever… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).

So—we suggest you take some time to dig through the site—even we’ve been surprised by what’s been turning up, and there’s much more to come.
