Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia

"Here The Caretaker provides you with seventy-two memories to lose yourself in.

It is the aural sound of 'Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia' a condition where it's impossible to remember new events.

A release with audio designed to be forgotten with few reference points appearing from a dense audio fog of an amnesiac condition." Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia is the Caretaker's fourth major release and acts as a major turning point regarding the focus of the Caretaker's music. The album itself focuses on a condition known as anterograde amnesia where the patient is incapable of making new memories. While most real-life cases have demonstrated that patients are able to learn new skills despite not remembering how they learned them, this album's concept imagines a theoretically pure version of the affliction in which no progress can ever be made, represented by "audio designed to be forgotten".

The album is 72 tracks long and was split into six parts or "CDs" in the physical release. It is the longest Caretaker album (if all CDs are considered unseparated) and has the most tracks of any Caretaker release. Originally released in 2005 as a free download from V/Vm Test Records, the album received a limited edition CD pressing in 2006. The album can now be purchased on Bandcamp for £5 GBP.

Sample List:
Unlike previous works, Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia samples completely from The Magic of Mantovani, a 6xLP box set featuring 72 songs conducted by Mantovani and his orchestra. Each LP contains six songs per side (12 songs per record). Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia shares the same structural composition as The Magic of Mantovani in that each part/CD mirrors each LP.

Also, unlike previous works, Theoretically pure anterograde amnesia is composed of 1950's and 1960's orchestral music as opposed to 1930's ballroom records.
