- Source: The Beak Brackets Series
The Beak Brackets was a series of experimental tapes made by the musical project / concept band Mujeres Encinta from 1999 to 2001. In this series Mujeres Encinta applied the n+7 principle to some records and songs from The Beach Boys.
Each cassette corresponded to a Beach Boys record and was named after it using the Oulipian constraint n+7. The series is better known as The Beach Boys +7 Series. (n+7 replaces every noun in a text with the noun seven entries after it in a dictionary. Beach+7 = Beak, Boys+7 = Brackets.). There are at least three known EPs produced as part of this series.
According to fan websites these tapes are impossible to find and even-though their details can be found in Discogs or Last.fm little has been written about what they actually sounded like. The artwork for each tape was made by Daniela Franco (as was most of Mujeres Encinta's artwork).
