New Arrivals
untitled
Five tracks, totalling approximately fifty minutes. Packed into the small horrible room (rip) inside the cedar house (rip) down in Lexington ky (still alive), individuals huddled in every corner, painting the room in colored cables, glossy wood and metal boxes. Deafness and disorientation was administered through the afternoon on into the night. Summoning over two hours of recorded tape, it was decided to cut the baby in half for adoption between two imprints. Heavy blossom ferried away the long…
Megafauna
Understand this: Yoga dispenses a sinister frailty of howling swellsin hissing static that combusts into crawling shock heaps, to the effectof Mayhem performing Twin Peaks incidentals in a prairie recordedby The KLF. A brief description casts them as black metal's answer to Throbbing Gristle. The texture-based rendering of their compositionssails them on a strange sea between song and sound effect as itbobs along the waves like a dead man s bottled message. Aspects ofGoblin rehearsals in dead hi…
Echohaus
LP version. “This latest project by the Hamburg-based musician, composer, and futurist, Felix Kubin, (his second release on Dekorder) is a collaboration with the contemporary music chamber group, ensemble Intégrales, and the reknowned German underground pop producer and sound engineer, Tobias Levin. Echohaus was recorded in and around Levin’s Electric Avenue studio in the basement of Westwerk, a former squat and cultural centre for non-commercial art and music in Hamburg. A special recording tec…
Symphonie Pour Le Jour Ou Bruleront Les Cites
LP version. Sub Rosa presents this cult album that has not been available in years. Re-released with new artwork, this is the 1980 version of Symphonie Pour Le Jour Où Brûleront Les Cités (the original version was released in 1976 and was later re-recorded). Pioneering Rock In Opposition filled with clashing percussion, frenetic orchestral motifs and apocalyptic brass. Not for the squeamish. It features the line-up of Thierry Zaboïtzeff (cello), Alain Eckert (guitar), Gilles Renard (saxoph…
Honey
Giannis Kotsonis has been performing under the ‘Sister Overdrive’ alias, keeping himself active with soundwork for theatre, dance, installation and cinema alongside his purely musical work. Initially working through his laptop, his practice has broadened considerably in recent years to include a greater range of external sources and a more detailed exploration of the electroacoustic possibilities inherent in his tools. ‘Honey’ comes at the tail-end of a couple of very productive years, ex…

Cocon & Oiseau De Nuit
Editions Mego present one longform exploratory performance from Sunn 0)))'s Stephan O'Malley, recorded in Paris during the winter of 2006 and recently excavated, revamped, and mastered at Piethopraxis in Köln. The first in a series of three cassette releases for EMego, the 40+ minutes of 'Cocon & Oiseau De Nuit' are similar in form to his 'Keep An Eye Out' LP for Table Of The Elements and the 'Salt' album for iDEAL recordings, wresting the blackest sub-harmonics and inherent micro-tonal s…
Fundamental Structure
Deceh is an anonymous duo featuring the elusive Eleh. Their edition for the Tapeworm series is "a close study of the harmonic composition of a Hammond organ and a Sruti Box with attention given to the organization of isolated frequencies and the effects of these vibrations on brain activity." Like all of Eleh's work, 'Fundamental Structure' is meditative, and, if you like, spiritual, seeming to slow time itself to a malleable blur and opening sublime temporal portals in the process. And w…
The Eight Thumbed Hand Serenades
Underground’s finest couple formed by Dylan Nyoukis and Karen Constance are here to delight us with a massive mind-hammering tape, originally out in a uber-limited 4xCS boxset on their own Chocolate Monk label. A fair where Muezzin Nyoukis will twist & pull your brains, a choir of voices praying, gargling & ooing, discomfort and unclear clatter all over. At some point you will find yourself in a damp swamp, two sticky beings calling each other (the mutant cricket here is Karen), a little slice o…
Sound non sound 1
"Sound non sound" is a 15 minutes long session of samples, toy beats and synthetic waves that travels back in time to investigate some of the unexplainable mysteries of the recent Italian past, made of disappearing aeroplanes and exploding train stations by the hand of no one.A deeply describing music that manages to stimulate undefined images and shapes to the mind of the listener.

weekend
On this cassette are two days of ambient sound recordings, each originally about twenty-four hours long and sped up to play back at about 128 times the original speed. The recordings were made in my studio, which is located in West Baltimore City. I was interested in hearing what was too low and slow for me to normally hear, or to imagine how I would hear things if I were an insect. Since sound can give an indication of length (sound travels approximately 1 foot per millisecond), my h…
A Star Maker, Strange Dreams, and Clairvoyance
Naturalist visionary Lieven Martens brings us along the latest voyage of his musical vessel, Dolphins Into The Future. “A Star Maker, Strange Dreams, and Clairvoyance” induces a state of lucid dreaming where we experience tales of romance, stargazing, cosmic motion, and eternity. Not unlike a painter’s brush, Martens utilizes a sound palette of colorful, synthesized organics to bring the listener directly into the vivid and exotic world that Dolphins has spent years cultivating. After muc…
Omissions
Simple and elegant the music of Jonhatan Borges' project needs concentration, both to be played and listened. It simply concerns repetitive and extatic tape loops that don't need nothing more than the simple repetition. You'll find yourself waiting, with the ear tense to discover a subtle change, a single touch that worth the whole record.Edition of 100

De Leeuwerik 1979
1979 performance of Allen Ginsberg, Peter Orlovsky, Steven Taylor and Harry Hoogstraten recorded live at De Leeuwerik, a small bar in Eindhoven (Holland). Everyone takes turn reading poems and singing songs accompanied by harmonium, percussion and guitar. The set starts with Ginsberg’s ‘Plutonian Ode’ and ends with a wasted ‘Copulation Blues’. Orlovsky reads extracts from ‘Clean Asshole Poems and Smiling Vegetable Songs’, Hoogstraten from his book ‘Boxing Days’. Awesome archival find that…

Dreamachine / Beyond Digital Mix
Palm Wine is a blog run by Simone Bertuzzi started at the end of 2009. It is described as "a possible and distant look at the post-global movement of sounds and imageries, even dazed by alcohol vapours. For this reason, it can take unexpected routes backward and forward, travels in the outer space and depicts a magic conception of distance between past, present and the next world." "Dreamachine / Beyond Digital Mix" is a C60 tape released by Palm Wine after a trip to Morocco attending a…
LiveGrodor
We had been talking about this tape for a couple years now: a buncha killer livejams by the great Swedish band Den Stora Vilan (which supposedly translates something as ‘The Great Rest’). Long mellow West Coast influenced psych jams (think ‘American Beauty’ era Gratefuld Dead) meets Neil Young with a bit of Trad Gras Och Stenar thrown in. 200
