Sacher-Pelz
Aliases: Maurizio Bianchi
CMRS/OPEA
Mindblowing double LP taken by a Maurizio Bianchi impossible-to-find early tape (from 1980!) "decomposed" in October 1980 using cacophonelectronics, and dedicated to the physical attraction to Sylvia Simonelli (September 1980/June 1981) “The genesis of this work is incredible. In the office where I worked, I had found a stamp with ‘’COMPRESA’’ (in English, included) written over it, and so I came to the starting point for a new experimental work. Erasing before the second, fourth, sixth and ei…

Amentest
The late 70's rejection of punk and rock-oriented music within select underground subcultures was signified by the works of bands like Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire and Whitehouse. Using their network of record labels and propaganda, these like-minded noise makers created a sound and aesthetic that is known far and wide as something quite English. But in Italy, a storm was slowly brewing in the works of a lone composer by the name of Maurizio Bianchi. Starting in 1979, Bianchi formed hi…
Neuro Habitat
**200 numbered copies on purple vinyl** Quality reissue of a private LP, issued in edition of 300 copies in 1982; a skeletal extremist project that will then transform into the \'soundtrack\' of a movie with the same title, edited and directed by Paul Hurst. It\'s the setting of the griable pre-apocalyptic fossilization, the supreme lapidation of the meanness which creates the myth. There are actual melodies present -- dense and dark that mutate into harsh electronic outbursts.
\"In order to cre…

Isometrie sonore
Postface by M.B. - An isometric sound ineluctably holds a thematic notion which generalizes that of the rigid motion of noise, combining with a psychometric and cacophonous object. Formally, it is a modulatory function between two metric spaces preserving their silent distances. In the example shown here, isometry moves along electronic pathways and captivates the listener's mind through rotations and reflections in plane or in spatial sound, maintaining the geometric concepts of experimental su…

Mectpyo Bakterium
Mectypo Bakterium is a work furnished of implacable plastic exasperation. The icy oppression, the hallucinatory electronic wounds, are a precious and singular fact in a technological society brought to the limit. The emotion is pushed into dangerous zones, and unusual tensions free biological groans of extreme effectiveness. A vivid expression of a world in extinction. Near exact replica of this classic Maurizio Bianchi LP published by DYS in the USA in 1982."An other awesome, bizarre, ultra-opp…
Hic omnia Ur-Aizib

Concredrones

Menses
*Numbered edition of 206 copies pressed on 180 gram Menstrual Blood Red vinyl* Reissue of the private LP edition of 300 copies from 1981; the pyramidal construction of these two 'suites,' with its intentionally brutal and grotesque deformations, elaborates on overflowing and apocalyptical collapse, dragging a completely dissolvent conception of the world and of the para-industrial sound. Bonus tracks: 'Milan Bruits' from the Fix Planet! comp (Ata Tak) and the two tracks first issued in the v…
