The Depreciation Guild is tagged as: shoegaze, electronic, chiptune, indie, 8bit The Depreciation Guild (2005-2010) was a dreampop band from Brooklyn, NY, USA. Recognized as much for their unexpected arrangements as for their unique blend of gauzy guitars and Nintendo Famicom programming, The Depreciation Guild developed somewhat of a cult following in their five years in existence. Originally a vehicle of songwriter / producer Kurt Feldman, the band’s first recorded output was Nautilus, an EP made available for free download through New York netlabel 8 Bit Peoples in 2006. After recruiting Akira Hashizume as second guitarist, the group went on to record their first LP, In Her Gentle Jaws, which was released as a free download from their website in December of 2007. This album was self-engineered in New York and mixed by Joshua Eustis (Telefon Tel Aviv, Sons Of Magdalene) in Chicago, IL. Hashizume left the band in 2007 and was replaced by guitarist Christoph Hochheim. Anton Hochheim joined the band in 2008 as drummer. In 2009, the trio signed to Kanine Records who released the remainder of their recorded work: two singles, Dream About Me (June, 2009) and Blue Lily (September, 2010) as well as their second full-length album, Spirit Youth (May, 2010) which was also engineered, mixed and produced by Joshua Eustis.
