Fluidities
2004 release ** "Fluidities is not your usual double CD, but rather an open ended project designed to generate many unique musical collaborations. The tracks on these two discs were designed so that any track on one CD could be combined with any track from the other CD to create a hybrid piece. In fact any two tracks on Fluidities can be played together to create new composite tracks that are, in effect, virtual collaborations between artists who may have never recorded together. For listeners w…
Autumn Is Coming, We're All In Slow Motion
2010 release ** "Matteo Uggeri and Andrea Ferraris met after having shared a series of collaborations with noise-ambient icons like Maurizio Bianchi/MB and Andrea Marutti/Amon. "Autumn is Coming, We´re all in Slowmotion", is the result of their mutual interest in searching for the most balanced blend of experimental music and melody. The work has been recorded and assembled trying to recreate a sort of "ordinary-life" environment and to give this aural-diary the shape of a soundtrack. During thi…
Sonology
2010 release ** "Sonology, the latest release from the Sound On Probation camp, combines two twenty-minute settings by Gianluca Becuzzi (aka Kinetix) and four shorter pieces by Laurent Perrier (aka Pylône), all of them untitled. Kinetix's first piece is a prototypical electroacoustic dronescape of micro-sounds where insectoid clicks, shimmering organ gleam, cavernous rumbles, percussive noises, and electronics combine to form a consistently captivating stream of controlled sound. Becuzzi holds t…
Unknown Music 1: Alien Letter
2005 release ** "Painter, guitarist, composer, and free author Steffen Basho-Junghans lives in Berlin and Thuringia, Germany. He has been highly influential on the eastern German guitar scene since the late '70s. Largely a self-taught artist and musician, his style is best categorized as eccentric and highly personal. Junghans uses steel-string acoustic guitars, combining archaic sounds with altered tunings and a plethora of divergent connections. Traditional European, American Indian, and Asian…
7Books
2004 release ** "If you dig just a little deeper into experimental acoustic guitar music, the name Steffen Basho-Junghans should come up. A German-born guitarist and performer, Basho-Junghans stands out amongst others with his unique guitar style. Implementing elements of American folk with Indian raga for a unique sound, he has created a strong catalog that spans nearly 15 years. On 7Books, Basho-Junghans goes all out with a double-disc collection of extended tracks, in the range of ten to fift…
Tattoos And Mushrooms
2008 release ** "For fans of Lounge Lizards this is a must-have, as we have two of the main musicians of this legendary band, tuba player Marcus Rojas and trumpeter Steven Bernstein. The line-up is completed by the excellent Danish drummer Kresten Osgood. The album begins with a moving howl from Marcus Rojas on the tuba, but this is just an introduction to Charles Brackeen's prayerful composition 'Prince of Night'. Then we have songs by the band members and Thelonius Monk, Charles Mingus, Hank W…
Ashigaru Revealed
2008 release ** "The latest work from one of the most prominent and outstanding Martial / Neoclassical European projects. Dedicated to warrior’s traditions of medieval Japan.Graceful and epic cocktail of atmospheric neoclassical passages, Japanese drums and rhythms. Digipak designed with a classical Japanese style."
As If Anything Could Be The Same
2014 release ** "As if anything could be the same is a duet album by the father and son team of saxophonist Jack Wright and contrabassist Ben Wright . In the world of improvised music, or non-idiomatic improvised music if one must, Jack Wright is a seminal figure. A self-taught bluegrass and folk musician as a youth, and later a history professor at Temple University, Wright's trajectory out of "normal" life coincided with his burgeoning political activism during the early 1970s. His subsequent…
Noise.il
2006 release ** "Israel has a growing noise scene with a growing number of artists, who from time to time organize noise nights/shows – such as the one recorded here on "Noise.IL", sometime in the summer of 2005.While not as large as the Japanese or anywhere near as large as the American noise scene, the Israeli scene is alive and kicking in various styles. Each one of the six artists on this nine-track album shows a different part of the spectrum, from easy-listening tracks such as the bizarre…
Synopsis
2016 release ** "In pessimistic times of murky imminence, the alchemy of improvisation transmitting an explicit lucidity arrives as the proverbial unexpected gift. On a second thought, by analyzing Ute Völker and Udo Schindler’s curricula one does not anticipate anything less than that. Both proficient instrumentalists (on accordion and reeds, respectively), the former is a teacher and the latter an architect. The formal aspect of playing – and we don’t mean “academy”; rather, “respect of impli…
Sea Cathedrals
2010 release ** "Five superb tracks of deep and evocative ambient music, enriched with echoes of ancient ritual suggestions. The immense spaces and the abyssal deepness of the sea, but also the sound of the bowels of the Earth, the colour of the sand of the desert, the energy of the wind, the strenght of all the Elements, the infinite cycle of day and night, of life and death… A long circular journey through interchanging atmospheres that shake and capture, dragging with energy, then leave room…
Dialogue One
2011 release ** "Enrico Coniglio's four tracks on Dialogue One don't differ radically in style from those on I, though the former are in spots perhaps louder and more texturally wide-ranging. Next to no details are provided about sound sources (save for a thanks to Rachele for lending her voice to “Calls of the White”) so once again impressions must be based on listening, pure and simple. One of the recording's most attractive aspects is the contrast between Coniglio's four tracks (all of which…

The Bunker Years [2006-2014]
2019 release ** "A sort of anthology that collects material recorded between 2006 and 2014. The album is titled, programmatically, The Bunker Years (2006-2014) and represents a bit of a "summa" of his art. Musically the album is wonderful: the settings are dense, magmatic and claustrophobic. It is a liquid, wavy and minimal sound that moves in electroacoustic and electronic territories. The initial “The Rule Of The Shadows” with its rumblings creates a bizarre and difficult to decipher acoustic…
In Between
2020 release ** Limited edition of 200 copies. "Sound pulses and pale metallic clangs, thin percussive incisions, impalpable high notes broken by thundering and flaying industrial noises. This powerful work by Gianluca Becuzzi breaks down the barrier between the “inside” and the “outside”. As in the third law of correspondence what is above is below, what is below is above, the barriers are broken down, the rhythm deconstructs and annihilates, they are explosions of a Tancredi Parmeggiani with d…
Good Sound
2009 release ** "This is an early collaboration of Multi-award-winning Icelandic cellist Hildur Guðnadóttir (Oscar, Grammy etc. for the original scores of Joker, Chernobyl etc.) and Dirk Dresselhaus (Schneider TM, die ANGEL, Locust Fudge, faust etc.) who met each other at Club Transmediale 2004 in Berlin and started to hang out, party, play boccia and record electroacoustic improv-sessions at Dirk’s Construction Site Studio. Their extended experimentations led to a combination of Hildur’s skills…
Abandoned In Sleep
2009 release ** "Infinite Greyscale is delighted to present a new long-form composition by Anduin. Since 2008, Jonathan Lee has been releasing beguiling and dusky cinematic music to great acclaim. Last Days of Montrose House is a deeply impressionistic work that’s constantly changing scene and perspective. Like entering a long abandoned building, it suggests both physical space and the unknown. The sound of a projector rolls to a foreboding rumble that invites the listener into a smoky, wide sc…
Agents At Midnight
2006 release ** "Agents at Midnight, eh? Sounds like the kind of film noir title Barry Adamson might like. But the music doesn't: it's a collection of raw, powerful improvisations for saxophone (Chang) and electronics (and harmonica) (Howard), a fine example of how the fences that used to separate Noise and Improv have been bulldozed into the dirt by the younguns across the pond (and a few of them here in Europe too). Chang's playing – alto sax, is it? not always easy to tell for sure – is rough…
Psychotic Reactions & Lightnin' Rag
2004 release ** "Here an hybrid instrumentation entangling blues and electro-acoustic music re-plays for us the complete history of recorded music. There is no deferred time between the instrument being played and the reworking of the recording parameters. All movements are connected in real time, as close as possible to the body. Hands on the tapes, fingers on the strings, fresh blood is springing, free from conventions, as if to abolish the principle of separation our society is built on. It’s…

Noise \ ... [Lärm]
2002 release ** "noise\ ... [lärm] consists of five performances from the avant-garde ensemble for compositions created by three Noise musicians: the legendary Masami Akita (who performs on his two compositions, "Crack Groove" & "Yahowa Stackridge"), the equally as legendary Zbigniew Karkowski (responsible for "Monochromy" & "White," the latter of which Karkowski remixes), & Dror Feiler (responsible for "L'extension du domaine de la lutte")."

It is an institutor and ideologist of international annual Noise vs. Glamour festival and Electroindustry label and Secret Assembly music events in which the different stars of Russian and foreign electronic music take part.
