Dub & Die plus
Originally released in 1981 as an untitled mini album on Zick Zack, "Dub & Die" completes our re-issue programme of the band's earliest works. Recorded at SADW's Cassettencombinat studio in Berlin, the original 8 tracks represent the first release by this German Avantgarde/Industrial group that was once a member of the "Geniale Dilettanten" movement. Again, comparison with early Einstürzende Neubauten is permitted, altho…
Trust No Woman plus
'Trust No Woman' is a minimal electronics masterpiece released in 1981 under the name of Zyx in Austria. The people behind this record are Inge Graf & Zyx, Austrian multi-media pioneers and musicians who have become famous in their home country for some highly obscure TV commercials. Over a quarter decade after its initial release, this outstanding album sees the light of day again. And if that weren't yet …
Satanic Sanction
The only early album in this American cult group's discography that hasn't been made available on CD yet. "Satanic Sanction" is one of the darkest, most ritualistic works ever to be recorded by the band, and has for this edition been enlarged by John Zewizz including tracks from the same recording session that didn't make it onto the original vinyl. Featuring the grand voice of Jonathan Briley this is *the* classic …
Black December
After a series of CD-R re-issues, Klanggalerie are now proud to present you a new silver CD edition of one of the most obscure records ever to be recorded: Konstruktivists' "Black December" is a highly neglected gem in the history of Industrial music. Not as noisy as the band's masterpiece "Psykho Genetika", this record is a classic full of stunning music that doesn't fit into any categoriz…
Prat Culture Plus
A fantastic album originally released in 1982 on Australia's M Squared-label. Founded in 1979, Scattered Order released three records in the early Eighties on M Squared, plus a few compilation tracks on various samplers. For this CD edition, the band have remastered the whole album and the Screaming Tree EP. As a bonus, there´s some unheard stuff at the end of the CD as well! Soundwise Scattered Order …
Vota
More than a decade after :Zoviet*france: members Robin Storey (Rapoon), Mark Spybey (Dead Voices on Air) and Andrew Eardley (Delayer) left the band, the three have teamed up for a new group: Reformed Faction is a 21st century version of this important group with a unique sound that combines the old :zoviet*france: style with modern technology and a fresh wind blowing from the North of England.

Neverless
What could be a better title for our follow-up to
Roedelius' "Evermore" than "Neverless"? Two avantgarde heroes have
teamed up for a unique collaboration that was started by Hans-Joachim Roedelius in Austria and then processed by Morgan Fisher in Japan. Ambient soundscapes with an Asian touch, meditative, repetitive and very seductive. The masterminds behind Cluster and Mott The Hoople united for the first time. 'How
about a collaboration between a former member of Cluster, and the
keyboard …
Danza de la Vida
The follow-up to our "Danza de la Muerte" compilation focuses on the more song orientated Syntactic releases. Also, you will find tracks that were planned as Syntactic or Klanggalerie 7"s, but never made it onto vinyl. The track list reads as follows: Andrew Liles - In this vegetable Glass of Nature Le Zappalot (Rehberg/Bauer/Birnbach) - Erika goes to Leopoldau O Yuki Conjugate - Madal (Circular…

Grand Piano Classics
Konrad Becker's work as a sound artist and composer is mostly known for his pioneering achievements in electronic music under the name Monoton. Until this day documents of his acoustic works remain extremely rare. The pieces for 4 painos remain a central element in his oeuvre and it is for the first time that these historic recordings are made available. Recorded in 1982-83 for the international performance series "Program for the 100% resocialization of the devil" and the "Parzival" opera in Ma…
Neonbeats (Austrian New Wave and Post Punk)
After releasing the Graf & Zyx and Viele Bunte Autos retrospectives on CD, we have compiled a double album of rare Austrian underground tracks from the late 70s to mid 80s, plus some young bands that continue this tradition until this very day. All tracks have never been released on CD and cover a wide range of sounds: from classic New Wave to Avantgarde, from guitar to synthesizer. Influences of the Neue Deutsche Welle and …
Destroying The Night Sky
A very special release with an unusual mix of sound: Using Cadaverous Condition's "To The Night Sky" album as source material for their tracks, all the aforementioned bands have created a unique new style of music. Call it metal ambient, drone metal or electronics metal, the result is something previously unknown and exciting. Hear Nurse With Wound doing one of their darkest tracks ever - listen to Controlled Bleeding's totally insane restructuring of a rock track, or be surprised by Nocturnal E…
Global K.O.
Sprung aus den Wolken have teamed up with Berlin based electro duo Film 2 to record a new album. The result is a mix of Renault Schubert's cool electro pop tunes and Kiddy Citny's and Betty la Gachette's vocals sung in French, English and German. A more than welcome return after a far too long pause for theose German pioneers. "The ten tracks of the CD span from funky electro industrialism to ambient cinematic experimentations (like "Push here" or "Nous irons aux bois") passing though electro 80…
Somnambulance to Dream General
"Somnambulance" is a reworking of an album of odd and obscure tracks that was released in a microscopic edition on CD-R before. For this CD, Mr. Liles has provided his funniest and possibly most controversial artwork as of yet. You get an hour of music of many different styles: Andrew Liles' trademark of eerie and spooky sounds is there; also electronics and a whole range of instruments are placed in between sketches and longer tracks. And if all this weren't enough, you get three bonus tracks t…
Hinaus:: In den, Wald
In 1986, SPK's Graeme Revell released an album entitled "Necropolis, Amphibians and Reptiles". The recordings were based on the work of Swiss art brut artist and mental patient Adolf Wölfli. Some 15 years later, Austrian composer Bernhard Gal used Wöfli's poems as the basis for a sound installation at modern art museum Essl near Vienna. Now, in 2004, Klanggalerie are proud to present you a CD version of this outstanding composition. There are male and female voices bordering between meanin…
La Mutazione
A milestone originally released in 1985 on the legendary Broken Flag label. Many people say La Mutazione is the darkest piece of music they have ever heard and it´s hard to disagree. This compact disc edition comes with a previously unreleased bonus track and with updated artwork and 12-page booklet explaining the history of Toniutti's work. A classic for any fan of MB, Ramleh, or simply the Broken Flag label
Elisionem
'The 'elision' in the traditional music is a coercive and systematic dispositive necessary to assimilate two syllabic notes in one only. The 'elisionem', in the avant-gardist branch, is a sound absorbent course used amalgamate various sonorous elements into one. The main purpose is to generate an eclectic and axiomatic damping of the electroacoustic particles in order to proportion the achromatic fulfilment of modern concretism. And the final effect is phonographically disarming... psycho-acoust…
