# Terre Thaemlitz sets two records with new album Soulnessless
¿Hablas español? If the answer is yes and if you're into multi-media
producer and transgender activist **Terre Thaemlitz**, please continue
reading. The Kawasaki based American artist is preparing the release of
a new album *Soulnessless*, and with the album comes a video 'component'
which needs translating into Spanish.
Thaemlitz is looking for a native Spanish speaker for the project press
info, and he just posted [the full English press info][1]{:
target="_blank"} on his Facebook and [website][1]{: target="_blank"}.
*Soulnessless* will consist of 30 hours of audio as well as 80 minutes
of video material. Along with the release there is a book of theoretical
texts. Thaemlitz states that *Soulnessless* will be pushing "*the
boundaries of the album format in today's post-CD era*", claiming to set
two records as "*The world's longest album*" and "*The world's first
full-length MP3 album.*"
Of course, this wouldn't be possible on CD or vinyl, and a digital
download would still be quite a task. So Thaemlitz decided to release
the whole thing on a 16GB MicroSD card with an optional USB card reader.
If you are excited about the project and feel safe language-wise as well
as mentally fit in "*Gender, transgender, queer, computer music,
immigration, active invisibility, non-essentialist, non-superstitious,
non-spiritual, non-religious, Catholicism*", please get in touch with
Terre via email, [info@comatonse.com](mailto:info@comatonse.com){:
target="_blank"}.
In related news, prepare for at least two further Thaemlitz releases in
2012: the *Complete Swirl* EP by **Mark Fell** and Terre's **DJ
Sprinkles** alter ego, also a collection of writings titled *Nuisance --
Writings on Identity Jamming and Digital Audio Production*.
