about

Beirut-based label Ruptured and Portland-based label Beacon Sound joined forces to release a vinyl edition of Lebanese guitarist and producer Fadi Tabbal's album, 'Museum Of Disappearing Buildings'.
This release marked the second collaboration between Beacon Sound and Ruptured, following a cassette edition of Lebanese electronic artist Munma's LP 'Three Voices' in 2016.

Fadi Tabbal has been central to the Beirut music scene for the last decade, running Tunefork Studios and playing in multiple groups, most notably The Bunny Tylers and The Incompetents. 'Museum Of Disappearing Buildings' is his second solo release, and first release to appear on vinyl. It is an album of ambient guitar drones and grainy electronics that reflects the precarious political and social environment of Beirut, while also being inspired by the impossible structures of Russian paper architects Brodsky and Utkin.
