Disco Hospital Books & Records, the independent imprint based in Toronto, is pleased to announce the release of New Variant (Undetectable II). This LP phonograph is published in an edition of 200; with jacket, centre labels, and insert featuring artwork by Rodrigo Cienfuegos (Santiago, Chile).
New Variant is the second in a series of three vinyl phonographs that respond to issues of queer pleasure and pandemic, a project funded by the Canada Council for the Arts. The series, Undetectable: Queer Pleasure and Pandemic, explores and listens to queer sexualities, chemsex practices, public sex, and emerging queer cultural production models that respond to increasing global homophobia, transphobia, drag-phobia, violence, and silencing.
True resistance is loud, and is rarely sober.
Music by Andrew Zealley. Produced by House of Intergenerational. Mastered by Stefan Betke.
