Material Modulations
"Second and final collaborative work by MB [Maurizio Bianchi] & MO [Mauthausen Orchestra], recorded before the premature departure of Pierpalo Zoppo the man behind Maurhausen Orchestra (R.I.P.).In the modulatory system, sounds are extracted from a basic materialistic sound and then overlaid with the use of random techniques that conceal the rumoristic load-bearing tones. The result is these "Material Modulations", which represent the primary device to receive physical and emotional response for …
Foundations
With an explorative approach Orquere organizes concrete sounds into experimental structures of cold and dry sonic landscapes where sounds appear as objects. Stripped down to their bare essence. No effects. No electronic noise. Just raw analogue manipulations with magnetic tape which carves out a sound that has its roots in both industrial, field recording and sound art. Orquere is Viktor Ottosson, a sound artist active in Gothenburg, Sweden. V O was one of the key figures of the now defun…
Distort Orgasm
Sometimes there is this sensation: "I knew this was going to happen." It clicked right away when Dan mentioned they had initiated a collaboration with Lasse. I have a deep respect and decent knowledge of their past works, but I could not imagine what to expect (besidesit being a first class job). Lasse is a chameleon-like collaboratorand Dan has been firmly straying from the scorched domains of harshnoise. After a long and anxious wait, playing "Distort Orgasm" reveals a work where both artists’…
Zashikiwarashi Effect
It is just not possible to hate Incapacitants. Some may be indifferent but it is incomprehensible they would bring up dislike as most artists do. Their sole raison d'être is noise - pure, loud, rich, and deep noise. The world around us has changed drastically over the three decades Incapacitants have been with us. If you follow their tracks, it is apparent the essence of the band has not changed much, if at all. However, there are slight refinements, tiny variations of theme, and tweaked a…
Orientering I Denna Värld
Back to basic industrial noise carnage from Matthias Andersson (more known as one half of the chaotic harsh noise duo Heinz Hopf). Recorded in Gothenburg between September 2011 and January 2012 in the aftermath of the Utmarken years, Orientering I Denna Värld is a final closure to the concept initiated on the Öppna Vattendrag (Posh Isolation) and Förändringens Frö (Järtecknet) releases. Gritty, failing electronics, repetitive loops and processed fieldrecordings from the constructionyard t…
Manic Depression
Experimental tape recordings by Rodger Stella from the early to mid nineties. Psychedelic analog noise and drone consisting of tape manipulation, obscure electronics, shortwave, field recordings and acoustic delay. Edited by Dan Johansson.
Ungdomsband
Matthias Andersson was able to create, release after release a very personal sound. Raw and primitive lo fi electronic presented in short tracks where, under a constant wall of low frequencies make their way disfigured field recordings, slow feedback movements and a claustrophobic hiss in the quiet parts which makes the texture deep and complex. Edition of 80
Native Waters
Native Waters is the result of three full days of recording that the Italian duo made ??in February 2012. The result is ideally placed halfway between the structured harsh noise of records like True Form and Lack Of Attention and the most quiet compositions of field recordings on the Dieter Tapes cassette. The tape loops, although still present, this time leaving more space for a degraded electronic, drowned in a sea of amplified electricity, tape hiss and distant feedback drones…
Weight
Nolan Throop is well known for his solo project Kakerlak and several brilliant collaborations. Parallel to this has always cultivated a passion for industrial and the more obscure noise, in constant progression through its project vergraben before and rumination now. Short tracks, monotonous and percussive, sounding like a degraded version of the SPK. Old drum machines, junk metal loops and radio voices that create industrial marches covered with a thick dose of negativity…
Mutations et Protheses
LP version (initalia copies are coloured). Rare recordings by pioneers of industrial noise music, 1979-1983, never released before on CD or LP. Etat Brut was an industrial/noise band from Brussels that operated from 1979 until 1983. The duo (Phillippe x and Philippe X, today academic scientists) released dozens of cassettes, various flyers and Xeroxed booklets. Some collective concerts were organized at that time with Club Moral and Pseudocode. Cassettes like Emissions 1 (1981) or Géomé…
Lowest Music & Arts 1980-83
This 10Lp-Set in a black varnished and silkscreened wooden Box is a comprehensive Anthology of the „Godfather of Noise“ early works, carefully selected and mastered by Merzbow himself. Is there anything left to say about Mastermind Masami Akita alias Merzbow that hasn’t been told or known. Does he still need any introduction or explanations? Merzbow has been actively recording 'Noise-Music' since late 1979. You can not talk about the Genre „Noise“ without eventually leading to him as one of th…

An Accident In Substance
Many years in the making, An Accident In Substance collects all of the 7-inch tracks and a huge number of compilation appearances of Key Ransone's legendary project Small Cruel Party. Like the pungent scent of a campfire or the complex flavor of a good, peaty single malt, Small Cruel Party's mix of environmental sounds, far-off voices, and Cartridge Music-like close manipulation of tiny sounds get into your sinuses, your hair, your jacket, melding into a location-specific surrealist vision …
Bloodyminded
Brutal & harsh tones that cut through the air with manic male agonizing screams moving into a lyrical attack… Bloodyminded, originally released in 1984 on the legendary Aquilifer Sodality in cassette, is the third official reissue of Mauthausen Orchestra on Urashima in Lp. Tracks remastered from the original tape. The record has been pressed on 140 gr black vinyl with black label and black inner sleeve (with inside polyethylene plastic) and comes in a deluxe silver silkscreen on black cardb…
Neuro Habitat
Reissue of the private LP, issued in an edition of 300 copies in 1982 and titled in original Mörder Unter Uns/Neuro Habitat , considered with Regel one of the Maurizio Bianchi's most representative works , Neuro Habitat is finally reissued for the first time in vinyl and remastered under the supervision of the Milanese artist. Side A "Morder Unter Uns" made of puzzled motifs and effects is a dark, sinister mantra to oppressive musical experiences. The piece finishes in an industry of molecular, …
Den blege gra ton
There are collaborations that go far beyond the sum of the individual parts involved. Partnership expand the corners of the musician involved and transforms the sound. That's the case of the collaboration between Sewer Election and Frederikke Hoffmeier, if Dan Johansonn has clearly demonstrated in his recent work as Sewer Election his passion and skills for tapes and field recordings manipulations, Frederikke as Puce Mary has instead created a perfect blend of voice, sung and recorded…
Dieter Tapes
Lettera 22 is the duo of Matteo Castro and Riccardo Mazza, two men on the forefront of the flourishing Italian noise & experimental scene. “Dieter Tapes” is a sordid collage of desolate audio, repurposed and destroyed in the struggle of man versus machine. Lettera 22 use extreme textures and dynamics to build up high levels of abusive tension, only to send them crashing down in a cacophony of broken beer bottles and urban scrap, leaving behind a skeleton of seething silence and tape hiss. A seed…
S.F.A.G. / S.F.A.G. De-Composed
After the disintegrative period of my production (from “Symphony for a Genocide” to “Das Testament”), the purchase of a misanthropic echo-machine and the consequent decay of the electric-analogue machinery, my efforts was redirected to a pre-recording sound sublimation, so I started to re-compose the electronic metastasis of early times, filtering through dehumanizing effects of the echo-machine, keeping attention particularly to the explanatory process of my ancestral subjectivism.

Supercharge
** Edition of 250 copies. Includes 24 page A4 Comic. Originally released on Mother Savage Noise Productions in 1995 ** As all Mother Savage tapes begin their transubstantiation into the new holy relics of Noise, one seldom-heard act still stands at a comfortable distance from the rest of the roster. A collaboration between Andy Bolus (Evil Moisture) and Mark Durgan (Putrefier), Olympic Shit Man divorced itself from the ultra-saturated, no-mind quest for pure filth by combining velocity and densi…
