Sleep Chamber- Musik For Mannequins Cass.

Sleep Chamber are an early 80s industrial collective consisting solely of John Zewizz and an otherwise revolving door lineup. The outfit formed in 1980 in Boston and was experimental in nature, yet as time passed the outfit shifted in styles several times over.

The late 80s saw a more EBM/synthpop direction, while Sleep Chamber began creating dark ambient music into the nineties, shifting between those two styles for the remainder of the decade. The band dropped from most radars in the new millennium as Zewiss' personal troubles caused the project to self destruct, and it's unclear whether Zewiss plans to record after a hiatus. However, a few collections of unreleased material has appeared and rumors hint at new material in 2008.

I've uploaded what seems to be Sleep Chamber's third cassette release, entitled Musik For Mannequins, a more experimental/musique concrete release from 1984. Without any further ado, here's the information:
