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…
Moon Over Torrelorca
Cold and glacial drone recorded at the prestigious EMS in Stockholm. 58 minutes of northern iciness. Moon Over Torrelorca, the second album from Keränen, serves as a great follow up to his amazing debut album Bats In Attic that Lasse Marhaug's Pica Disk released last year. In contrast to the high energy multi-layered noise- bomb the debut offered, Moon Over Torrelorca instead showcases a carefully composed drone piece from this highly skilled sound artist. It’s cold up north.
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.
Lack Of Attention
46 minutes unique blend of failed electronics, crude tape manipulations, fieldrecordings and feedback from Italy’s finest, Matteo Castro & Riccardo Mazza. Closing the album is a 15 minute feedback piece. Airy, delicate and just stunning. Sounds like a drone piece someone dug out from the 60’s or something. Do not miss out!
