9. Last record you played?
\nEric’s Trip “Peter” 12″. But the last thing I listened to was the upcoming pillowdiver “cassetterecordings” EP, which is excellent.<\/p>\n

10. Favorite piece of musical equipment?

14. Are you useful?
\nLooking back at the last 18+ months it wouldn’t appear so.<\/p>\n

15. Biggest fear?
\nNothingness. Infinity. Losing my mind and not coming back.<\/p>\n

16. What do you value the most?
\nHonesty, understanding. Balance. Purpose. Solitude b\/w Autonomy.<\/p>\n

17. Famous last words?
\n“What’s the worst that could happen?”<\/p>\n

Konrad Jandavs records as No UFO’s. His first release (much hyped around these parts!) was last year’s small run self-released cassette, ‘Soft Cost’. It’s just been lovingly remastered & reissued on LP by Spectrum Spools.
\nHis most recent LP “Mind Controls The Flood ” is out now on Public Information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
