DOCTOR X - MUSIC FOR DREAMS

The second DVD in "the ambient collection"
- a series of high-quality audiophile DVDs for people who don't like television.

Our second title in The Ambient Collection, "Music For Dreams" is comprised of six ambient music pieces done by Doctor X, mixed in surround-sound (compatible with regular stereo playback) and presented with six ambient visuals. This disc provides an extremely relaxing environment; the music does not require your constant attention, and the videos act as "moving wallpaper". Highly recommended for our stressful times.

THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI

The high point of Germanic Expressionism, the template for countless horror films of the thirties and forties, and a classic opf avant-garde cinema, "The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari" is required viewing for anyone interested in film history, and yet many people have never seen it.

Lowbudget Records is proud to present our version of this classic of silent cinema, complete with a great new score by Hayim Kobi. We've replaced the title cards with subtitles and frame-blended all those annoying jumps that have plagued existing prints of this film for years.

BIRD MANCINI - BIRDS IN THE ATTIC

Bird Mancini, one of the best live bands in Boston, are showcased in a live performance DVD recorded at The Attic in Newton, Mass. on March 22nd, 2004. Much in the same manner as Random Access Memory's "The Magic Lantern Show", the Lowbudget Records film crew (Tim Casey, Mr. Curt, Ms. Donna, Diane Andronica and Chuck Rosina) swarmed all over these guys while they ripped through a blistering set celebrating their CD, "Year Of Change", on Second Story Records. Bill Mason recorded the performance in multitrack and did the stereo mix at Second Story Studios. Then we transferred the original tracks to Tim Casey's computer at The Kon-Tiki Lounge and Tim did a 5.1 surround-sound mix of the show. Both mixes are presented on this fantastic DVD, which is definitely on our list as one of the best party DVDs ever! Crank it up and enjoy!

TIM CASEY - IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS

The first DVD in "the ambient collection"
- a series of high-quality audiophile DVDs for people who don't like television.

First it was an audio installation at an exhibit, then it was a double-CD set, now it's a surround sound DVD! Originally an audio piece for two DAT decks, this piece features slow washes of sine waves and reverbed water that ebbs and flows from each corner of the room, providing a truly relaxing retreat from the stress of daily life. It's now available on a dolby digital surround sound DVD, presenting the home viewer with the experience of hearing the original quadrophonic installation. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - when played at a low volume, this disc is a wonderful way to relax, get rid of stress, and even get toddlers to settle down for naptime.

"In The Council Chambers" is an ambient piece in the strictest sense of the word - it is meant to blend in with the background. The images and sounds can be played together or seperately; feel free to turn off the sound or the picture depending on what you feel is appropriate for the moment.

NOSFERATU

This DVD contains an abridged version of perhaps the creepiest vampire film of all time - the classic "Nosferatu" from the Golden Age of German Cinema. We've edited and tinted the original, replaced title cards with subtitles, removed some of the slower scenes, and otherwise performed digital mayhem on a revered classic! We've also provided an "uneasy listening" soundtrack by Doctor X (Tim Casey), inspired by the avant-garde groups liminal of N.Y.C. and Urban Ambience of Boston.

THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA

NEWLY REMASTERED WITH RESTORED SCENES!
"Deserves a screening in a movie house..." - Mark Murphy, Soundcheck magazine Jan. 2001

Lon Chaney Sr. left an image for the ages as the insane maestro whose obsessive love for a beautiful soprano brings tragedy and horror to the Paris opera House! This version contains RESTORED FOOTAGE from a 1925 16mm print which includes many scenes not available in all other home video prints as well as deleted scenes reconstructed from photographs. Coupled with an AMAZING soundtrack by Doctor X and Random Access Memory, this is by far the best version of this timeless classic available on home video. And in surround-sound, you can turn down the lights, crank it up, and enjoy....
