In die Nacht
Bureau B reissues Asmus Tietchens' third solo album on Sky Records, originally released in 1982. It stands to reason that any musical journey undertaken by a skeptic like Asmus Tietchens is destined to head into the night (In die Nacht) rather than into the day. In die Nacht, the third album in the so-called time signal ("Zeitzeichen") phase, continuing in the same vein as Biotop (BB 141CD/LP) and Spät-Europa (BB 142CD/LP), while laying down its own stylistic markers, no doubt attributable to th…
Chronolyse
CD Edition. Bureau B presents a reissue of Richard Pinhas's Chronolyse, originally released in 1978. Pinhas is one of the most important French electronic space-rock musicians. Following five albums with Heldon, his band, he released solo records from 1977 on. His transition to solo material gave the guitarist and synthesist an opportunity to work on material that was a little lighter and less constrained. Chronolyse was his second solo album. Following the previous year's Rhizosphere (BB 279CD/…
Sonnenlicht
LP version. Bureau B present a reissue of Tyndall's debut album, Sonnenlicht, originally released in 1980 on Sky Records. The two electronic sonic inventors Jürgen Krehan and Rudolf Langer founded Tyndall in the year 1980, naming their duo after a light scattering phenomenon in physics. Armed with an impressive array of instruments, devices, and home-made synthesizers, they created free and easy electronic music in the style of the Berlin School (Berliner Schule), much to the liking of the legen…
I Nastri Ritrovati
***Expanded CD Edition - includes 5 extra tracks not featured on the vinyl edition of this album. 300 copies only. This is a special non-profit publication for historical, scientific and educational purposes** Not so long ago, Italy’s remarkable movement of musical minimalism remained almost entirely unknown. Stretching from the 1970’s through the late 80’s, it rarely sounded like anything else - taking a remarkable range of cultural influences and ideas into its midst - a body of creative hybri…
Ballades sur lac Gelé
We met Franck Vigroux for the first time years ago at Berlin's Berghain during a soundcheck. At that time he performed with Mika Vainio, with whom Vigroux often worked together. The first track on Ballades sur lac gelé dates back to that time. It was created under the impression of this collaboration and friendship with Mika Vainio. This album is dedicated to him. Vainio's oeuvre is also significant in connection with the history of raster, so it was only logical and our wish to release this alb…
Fusión
Fusión is the forth production released by Distorsion Desequilibrada, Alvaro Portales’s industrial noise project. He is one of the most important representatives of industrial noise produced in Lima between 1990 and 1995. Portales by then began his work as a graphic designer and comic artist and he was always present at the hardcore punk underground rock and metal circuits. The radicalism of grindcore and its derivatives, grindnoise and noisecore rooted themselves locally and allowed for …
Light Of Day
This higly original 1966 collection has been called the first acid folk record of all time. Certainly its hippy themes and exotic instrumentation are well ahead of their time, but Kilroy died tragically young and his album has largely been neglected ever since, despite featuring legendary guitarist Stefan Grossman. This is its first CD appearance, and comes complete with explanotory liner notes making it a must for all fans of psychedelic singer-songwriters. Eastern dreamy and trippy trance/dron…

Camera Obscura

The three instruments function as generators of noise and sound and blend together in a complex sound mass, which is permanently moving, changing and renewed.By using advanced playing techniques such as circular breathing, multiphonics and a vast palette of air sounds the instruments are removed from their traditional context and …
Directions
If you thought that Rafael Toral’s quartet was named after some reference to Sun Ra’s spatial jazz, here is the confirmation that there’s much more at stake than that, even if the many allusions to the Saturn envoy are also true. Space is the valorization of pauses, interstices, a certain measure of expression and narrative, a way to create transparencies and, most of all, a return to a human dimension, aware of its heart beating, its organic, silent thinking/ inner living of bodily functions. I…

The material compiled sketches an acoustic profil…

V
Finally the fifth KTL studio album is ready for release. Whereas their previous album IV (EMEGO 089CD) was recorded and made in a relatively short period in a more traditional rock environment, V turns full circle, takes its time and tackles the complex working processes of the European avant-garde. Rooting themselves in such legendary electronic music studios such as EMS in Stockholm and GRM in Paris, Stephen O'Malley (SunnO))), Khanate, etc.) and Peter Rehberg (Pita, etc.) have delivered …

Sangue di Sbirro
Perhaps not everyone knows that Alessandro Alessandroni, the Master of Italian library music, had also composed several original soundtracks from late ’60s to early ‘80s, especially for many “genre” movies such as poliziotteschi, sexy comedies, spaghetti western, horror and thriller. Among them, Sangue di Sbirro (Bloody Avenger), is certainly one of the most prestigious works made for Italian cinema in the 70s: an Italian noir set in Philadelphia, where the jazz-funk library’s background of the …

Piero Umiliani, surely among the most talented musicians to score a spy movie, was al…
