Bad Times
"Bad Times" is a kind of dark offshoot or reminiscence of Heading South. It is also one of four ep's or mini albums I've made in 2014. Each of them is small world or short novel, each is different but all of them are devoted to transitory moments and made under such influence. On seven inch vinyl there is only place for two short tracks but please treat it as standalone micro album. Two new exclusive tracks with a quite different style respect the last album released on Backwards ("Heading South…
Daddy's Dream
* 140Gr. Purple vinyl, numbered * Perhaps one of the least well-known, yet most sought-after Demetrio Stratos recordings, his first (and only) single released in 1972 just before joining Area...The tension between Stratos's dense, foreboding voice and orchestral production is unusual, to say the least.
Five Fertile Exchanges
**Limited and numbered to 150 copies** Little known outside of his native Australia, Peter Blamey has been recuperating discarded electronics into artworks for more than a decade. As Douglas Kahn writes in his sleeve notes here, he belongs to an artistic tradition unique to Australia that trades sound and energy. Having cut his teeth in an extensive exploration of disposed motherboards, Blamey has more recently worked with photo-voltaic cells, homemade electromagnets and rudimentary turbin…

Sara's Tune / A Tune For Lucy
* 250 copies * What a classic pair! "Sara's Tune" and "Tune For Lucy" were both commissioned as holding cues for the BBC's Schools And Colleges Broadcasts from the mid 1970s to the 1980s. Anyone in the UK who sat in front of a TV at school waiting for their 30 minute educational show about childbirth or maths would have sat through this music while the BBC "Diamond" pattern ate itself before the actual educational show started. "Sara" was used for junior schools broadcasts, "Lucy" for Senior sch…
Bad Trip
Extremely rare 7" by Fifty Foot Hose band members. Bad Trip was recorded with Bob Noto on Guitar - Bob Gibson screaming and hollering and Cork Marcheschi playing bass and hitting a large card board tube with a stick. They recorded it on a two track sony in Cork's parents family room and put Bob in the bath room as a kind of sound booth. It was Cork’s way to deal with Music Concrete and he suggested that the record could be played at any speed, his love for Dadaism was fully realized in Bad Trip.…
Malophòros / Mondi Di Pietra
Backwards Records presents the new Lay Llamas release: the new 7" in gold-coloured vinyl by Lay Llamas, moniker behind which the Sicilian musician and composer Nicola Giunta is hidden. The single will contain two tracks: on Side A Malophòros composed together with the shaman singer Alfio Antico - former collaborator of Fabrizio De Andrè, Tullio de Piscopo and Vinicio Capossela - at frame drum and voice. The piece sounds like an improbable mixture between the Nuova Compagnia Di Canto Popolare and…
Third
200 copies. Black vinyl, white cardboard sleeve with postcard attached, stamped white labels, insert. Plays at 33rpm. In the ongoing affair between New Haven and Gothenburg something new from
the IDDB office favorite Stefan Christensen was very much inevitable.
This time he teams up with David Shapiro and Ian McColm of Nagual for a
third collaboration (the first two released as cassettes in 2017 on
C/Site and Gilded Throne respectively). 11 minutes+ of pure guitar drone
bliss, part drawn-ou…
Backlit Colander With Holes Shaped Like Numbers
200 copies. Black vinyl, white cardboard sleeve with postcard attached, stamped white labels, insert. Plays at 33rpm. Two six-minute montages of reversed mitosis episodes, in which scaly pods, ruptured eggs, and clumps of partially digested hair smush through one another and glom together in unstable strains of S-Glass-spanktified dad-noise. 'Backlit Colander With Holes Shaped Like Numbers' crawls with bacteria from munched electronics, murmurs of a chimney-entrapped Frampton (plus camel, but th…
Plays John Cage II
Celebrated Scandinavian experimentalist CM Von Hausswolff pays respect to the great John Cage with this release which includes a homage to Cage’s seminal 4’33”. For his interpretation, the minimalist uses an electric guitar and a faulty amplifier to highlight the finer details that come to the fore in the format. Taking on the godfather of experimentalism is no simple task but the fresh take from Von Hausswolff stops this release falling into any kind of ‘cover version’ category. This is a limit…
Wings on Rocks
Pascal Comelade's Wings On Rocks EP includes three tracks: an extract of the soundtrack for Bob Wilson's ballet Wings On Rocks (1999) featuring Richard Pinhas on guitar, a previously unreleased track from 2009 and a new version of "The Nothing Twist", recorded with The Liminanas, featuring Xarim Aresté on guitar.

2016 release. Pascal Comelade and Armand "Frigico" Miralles (member of Heratius) recorded the four tracks on Carré Noir Sur Fond Noir as a duo in 1980. Three test pressings were made, but the EP was never released - until now. French-Catalan musician Pascal Comelade, born June 30, 1955 in Montpellier, began making strange cover songs of rock and easy listening standards with such instruments as the singing saw, toy piano etc. He later developed an un-confoundable style, co-operated with artists …

Midnight in Tokyo Vol. 3
Midnight In Tokyo is a compilation series that aims to be the perfect companion to nights in Tokyo, collecting tracks by Japanese artists that sound best at night.

Machanical Restraint
All pieces recorded live at the Plastikville Studio. Sound sources through the use of pure analogue devices and various kinds of metal apparata connected through electronics, unaffected in any way in the hope of rendering a kind of sonic inscription of the machines.
