Silk screen print outersleeve ** Edition Zeroso is pleased to announce the first full length release from Japanese producer/live sound engineer Nobuki Nishiyama.

Lungs
With the LP Dregs in 2018, the Capers sound palette was expanded considerably. On Lungs, recorded not long after Dregs, the sound palette was instead kept at a minimum, and the composition simple, restrained and monotonous. Sparse, ever-sinking, rough, repetitive and patterned noise. For heads into early Zone Nord and Vårtgård. Previously released as a C30 in 2019 by Canadian label Freedom Club, with one of the tracks omitted to better fit the cassette format. Lungs is now available in its origi…

Also included in this reissue is a 22 minute live document, recorded at Shinsaibashi Club Quattro on February 10, 2001.

Quantized Angel
Few contemporary industrial acts are spoken of in such highly reverential terms as Alberich, the solo project of underground super-producer Kris Lapke. While Lapke himself may best be known for his production and mastering work, both for such diverse sounding acts like Prurient, Nothing and the Haxan Cloak to his audio restoration work for Coum Transmissions and Shizuka, Alberich has achieved a cult on par with many of the legends he works with.
Lapke’s diverse contributions as a producer are re…
Mexico City / Central Mexico
** 2021 Stock. Limited edition cassette in oversized package with foldout poster ** Geography Of Hell is a mysterious collective with an international cast of members. While their refusal to answer questions or make their identities known, the dedication to familiar subjects presented without explanation makes this band one of the more intriguing propositions on Hospital Production's sprawling roster. Playing live, members of GOH are concealed behind homemade masks, whole their music fits into c…
Ambient Black Magic
** 2021 Stock ** Rainforest Spiritual Enslavement is the ambient techno project of Dominick Fernow. Focusing on slow paced bass studies and synthetic dub textures, surrounded by collaged and looped field recording environments, RSE shrouds sound over image to target the sector of brain where fear supersedes rationality -- the imagination. As RSE appears live for the first time, it has transformed into an entity with rotating contributors on stage and on recording. Ambient Black Magic moves away …
Play Neutral
** 2021 Stock. ** Covering the gamut of North African guitars thru the sludge funk of World Domination Enterprises and Sun Ra’s Nuclear War, this tape catches Karl O’Connor perfectly not playing to presumptions of blistering techno, and instead exploring the post-punk tributaries and lesser trotted outsider ginnels of his sprawling record collection in a way we haven’t heard him do before. Suffice it to say listeners should expect the unexpected in a class meeting of Hospital Productions and Dow…
Coalescence of Time: Other Conjectures on Future
** 2021 Stock. Edition of 150 ** “… we propose to study a generalized growth model, including all categories of unconventional literatures and yet coalesce them around critiques of linear thought… hence our estimates would be some of the endless positive examples for further conjectures on the end of time…. this could drive the need to communicate perception samples to all other forms of intelligence… evocative prescriptions which could offer potentially misleading guidance for future research, …
The Ascent of Deimos
** 2021 Stock ** Hospital Productions presents The Ascent of Deimos by Torture Chain. Morbid and baroque keyboard organ intros accompany a caustic and harsh hammering black death metal, complete with ripping guitar solos courtesy of Arthur Rizk with winding interactive single note leads set atop the crumbling temple of riffs. Highlights even hit the stressful agony of mayhem's chimera at its nastiest peaks or the angular dissonance of corpse vomit’s debut. This could easily have sat alongside so…
Musique Tachiste
The debut issue from Finders Keepers' hugely promising new Cacophonic sub-label is the first in a series of rare records by French experimentalist Michel Magne: six pieces of extended vocal technique, musique concrète, and jazzier modes very much in keeping with Finders Keepers' quirkier tastes. A faithful reissue including facsimile of the original artwork and 12-page booklet of liner notes. "One of the very earliest full-length French concept albums - part radical manifesto, part pantomime. Th…
ae³o & h³ae
**500 copies only, already sold-out at source** Drone: as with anything else that rarely changes, it's necessary to latch onto subtleties. What minimal suggestion put forth by a drone is so easily applied to pretty much any impression you might have that, predictably, describing one often leads to vague subjectivities bordering on bad poetry. And as much as I'd love to go around proclaiming my love for "deeply resonant, holy abysses" (not), I wish there were an easier way to communicate the real…
