Over the course of his life, he released more than thirty albums and built a devoted international following. Praised by critics and revered by artists from Kurt Cobain to Tom Waits, Johnston’s songs have been compared to the raw emotive force of Robert Johnson and the timeless storytelling of Hank Williams. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHis influence can be traced to a series of homemade cassette tapes he began circulating in the early 1980s. These tapes—unfiltered, intimate, and hauntingly sincere—were the foundation of his mythos. Recognizing their importance, Jeff Tartakov began managing and signed Daniel to Stress Records in the mid-eighties to not only help distribute, manufacture, and preserve its handmade spirit but to help the music reach the broader world. Tartakov’s stewardship was instrumental in building Johnston’s legacy, and in defining the cassette as a vital medium for outsider music. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMuch like the collapsible paint tube that sparked the Impressionist movement, the cassette tape democratized music-making, enabling untrained voices to share uncensored emotional truths. As a label founded on cassette releases, Joyful Noise is proud to present Daniel Johnston In the 20th Century, a definitive collection of 16 remastered cassette albums, lovingly restored by longtime collaborator Kramer (Shimmy-Disc). The set is housed in a hand-crafted wooden case, screen-printed with Daniel’s artwork, hand-numbered in a limited edition of 999. It also includes a booklet with liner notes by Marc Masters and an exclusive mystery toy from the New York based art toy gallery Clutter in conjunction with Lunch Lady Studios.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJohnston’s work endures not only for its originality, but for its honesty—and its unmatched emotional reach. He remains the patron saint of lo-fi music and the unlikely hero of a generation seeking beauty in imperfection. Joyful Noise (in partnership with Shimmy-Disc) is honored to support and deepen the legacy of Daniel Johnston in his chosen format. Today, that legacy also lives on through the Hi, How Are You Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to mental health awareness and education, inspired by Daniel’s life and art. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDaniel Johnston in the 20th Century includes the following albums on tape:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.

Shoegaze renegades who’ve rebuilt the stereotypically lightweight genre in their own bloodyknuckled American image. Outlaw poets spilling existential dread on mile-wide canvasses of fuzz and reverb. Beginning as a Philly-born bedroom solo project in 2010, Nothing’s music has always captured the full scale of the human condition, both the blaring anger and the whispering sadness. a short history of decay, Nothing’s fifth solo album and first for Run For Cover Records, widens that aperture even further, providing the most hi-def rendering of Nothing to date. The band have never sounded this colossal, never felt this intimate, never been this honest.With the strongest arsenal in Nothing’s ever-shifting lineup locked in -- guitarist Doyle Martin (Cloakroom), bassist Bobb Bruno (Best Coast), drummer Zachary Jones (MSC, Manslaughter 777), and third guitarist Cam Smith (Ladder To God, also of Cloakroom) -- singer-songwriter Domenic “Nicky” Palermo knew he had the manpower to make the band’s most ambitious record yet. Co-written and produced with Whirr guitarist Nicholas Bassett, and with additional production and mixing work from Sonny Diperri (DIIV, Julie), a short history of decay, is the most evolved musical statement in Nothing’s catalog. Songs like “Cannibal World” and “Toothless Coal” are cataclysmic lashings of mechanized industrial-gaze that sound like My Bloody Valentine -- except more extreme.On the other end of the spectrum, the ornately morose “Purple Strings” boasts a beautiful string arrangement that includes harpist -- and two-time Nothing contributor -- Mary Lattimore. That baroque delicacy permeates other a short history of decay, highlights, particularly “The Rain Don’t Care,” a lilting ballad that channels the worn-down elegance of Mojave 3, and also “Nerve Scales,” a pattering bop that resembles Radiohead in its marriage of otherworldly atmosphere and mortal precision. Palermo calls the new record “a final chapter.” Not the end of Nothing, but the conclusion of a story that began with Nothing’s 2014 debut, Guilty of Everything -- another album about time, regret, and confronting uncomfortable truths -- and now resolves with a short history of decay,. As much a snapshot of Palermo’s past as it is a leap into Nothing’s future.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ice Cream","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51122849087776,"sku":null,"price":25.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/1081\/5264\/files\/RFC295-1500.jpg?v=1768336494"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/1081\/5264\/collections\/57437543-F7E2-45D8-B805-F1A6B7F5AE12.jpg?v=1768415207","url":"https:\/\/wtfisicecream.com\/collections\/new-cassettes.oembed","provider":"Ice Cream","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
