Egomachia
After a very long silence finally here comes the brand new album by this Italian-Archeo-Industrial project. „Egomachia = the fight of the ego“ is the concept behind this album. Album is divided in three sectors which corrispond to the 3 Parche: Clòto, Làchesi, Àtropo.

Reset / Rebis Periferiche
*2022 stock* For this release Massimo Magrini was joined by the Italian cyberzone-writer Tommaso Lisa. So the album was recorded using as conceptual reference Tom's "Italian Neuro-Poems" collection REBIS . Short spoken fragments of the texts are treated and inserted in a sonic structure built with minimal, strangely sincopated pseudo-rytmhs and sharp pulsing noises.The effect of those spcken texts is really disqieting, a very severe & obscure release , different from all previous Bad Sector albu…

Spirit Exit
Black Vinyl edition The musical vortexes of Caterina Barbieri rewire time and space. Listening to the Italian composer and modular synth virtuoso has felt like traveling at light-speed and slow-motion all at once since 2017’s breakthrough double-album »Patterns Of Consciousness«. 2019’s acclaimed »Ecstatic Computation« pushed even further with the lead single »Fantas«, where a haunting melody hurtling towards its supernova climax felt like witnessing the life and death of a burning star. Far bey…
Constant Shallowness Leads To Evil
Coil’s year 2000 electric storm is their next legendary chapter for legit reissue, exemplifying the fathomless variegation of their vision with overproof levels of digital noise masking deeply trippy song structures. After tenderising flesh with the reissue of the ‘Musick To Play In The Dark’ volumes, Dais unleash Coil’s tempestuous sore thumb ‘Constant Shallowness Leads To Evil’ for a sharp right swerve into the depths of their profound catalogue. Issued the same year as ‘MTPITD’, as well as ‘…
The Sacrifice
Tip! In 2020, a year shaped by stringent COVID-19 restrictions, many of us paused for thought about our collective futures. For First Light Records, this reflection, plus the support of Sound and Music's Composer-Curator programme, led to the development of Unbuilt Sound, a new series of commissions centred around acoustic ecology; the relationship between listener and environment. The first iteration of the Unbuilt Sound series sees Flora Yin-Wong retreat to an isolated cabin outside Machynllet…

Alphane Moods
Australia-based musician Mark Gomes presents the debut full length under his own name for Soda Gong. “Alphane Moods” finds Gomes employing strategies that will be familiar to listeners of his work as Blue Chemise– elegiac, loop-based modes of composition and a predilection for concise etude forms– that manifest here with a strikingly different scope and intent, shifting from expressive abstraction into more conceptual terrain. Over the course of fourteen widescreen tracks, he navigates the gap b…

Plastic Love
*40 copies limited edition. 2022 stock* Can noise be romantic? Is it true that high volume sound helps to meditate? Can noise music be highly emocional? Will density make us float?

Aldan
*2022 stock* These are images of a dark and cold Siberia engraved in the memory of a child. It is about a high mountain where the snow never melts, about empty streets, about an exploited mighty nature, abandoned with its guts spilling out. It is about a shattered nuclear plant, and black mornings when the freezing air stings the skin with its chilly needles. Landscapes that the child observes quietly, within a very slow motion of time, on which children hover.
Making Eye Contact With Solitude

There’s a real gentleness to these spont…

In an effort to understand the river better and inspired by Werner Herzog’s ‘Of Walking in Ice’, Niesner set out on a journey from the …
Things That May Not Be Connected
Enigmatic musician David Wesley Sutton, better known under his LXV alias, joins Warm Winters Ltd. with a pair of process-oriented pieces. Both revolve around very short samples played through various different devices, which allowed Sutton to reconfigure them in a live “playing” kind of environment. Rather than endlessly repetitious, these loops are like amorphous forms, constantly shifting, evolving, always drawing your attention to a different moment within their short duration. The title “Thi…
