Alt i Stykker
Danish composer and sound artist Peter Jørgensen’s new album Alt I Stykker continues a trajectory into an expansive and highly personal sound-world. A remarkable series of compositions hewn from a multi-faceted mirroring of musical elements and life events. Alt I Stykker (All in Pieces) resonates perfectly as a title of his three new works. It hints at the emotional turbulence of their genesis and their passage into being through a rich complement of approaches and collaborators. This album furt…
New Works For Realistic Mixer
2016 release. Following 2015's Teaspoon To The Ocean, Jib Kidder delivers an uncanny dance LP featuring no-input mixer sequenced together with drum machine. It steers the chaotic atmosphere of Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music (1975) towards an emotive tide of information that, whether too much or too little, makes it hard to grasp but easy to eat up. If electronic music has been made familiar (through musique concréte or Lee Gamble) with the conversion of noise into dance, New Works For Realist…
Split
A cold vision of a dark trash covered future full of Sci-Fi nightmares & strange out of body experiences. Annihilation synth & tape collage, cut up, sped up & dialed to oblivion. Earth Crown steps it back, slows down the pulse, lets the edges of the static curl around the drone to the breaking point, where the damage is let loose, purged out & built again. This LP is a reminder of how cold, desolate, & haunting life can be.
Gold Beach
Following on from 2012's split LP with Gareth Hardwick, Gold Beach is the fourth album and third release on Low Point by Danish composer P Jørgensen. After working on several commissions, including the score to Kim, a 2009 documentary film about World War Two Danish resistance leader, Kim Malthe-Bruun, Gold Beach was painstakingly recorded, processed and assembled over the course of the last four years. Unlike Jørgensen's previous works, electro-acoustic compositions subject to heavy compu…
Weapon Design
The very latest from Ramleh's Anthony Di Franco, whose long-running solo JFK project has been dedicated to the kind of concrete-mixed rhythmic pummel countless others would almost kill for since the cassette network culture of the 1980s. It's an immersive sound that, naturally, shares a little common ground with Ramleh yet emphasizes the monstrous chasms that can be drawn from a sturdy combo of bass-churn and galvanized beats. Whilst the labyrinthine textures beamed in from steelworks remain ver…
DOST
One of James ‘Wooden Wand’ Jackson Toth’s favourite bands, these Midwestern lo-fi poppers make a good case for why the Velvet Underground are one of the most influential bands of the last fifty years. While they add their own spin to the sound, for the most part ‘Dost’ is an unpretentious and timeless garage-rock trawl through that very specific druggy Velvets-style basement subgenre. They manage it well too, apparently the band have been largely unrecorded even though they have been play…
Rainbow Mask
"Rainbow Mask" is a 12" record which contains a long piece on each side. The sound was originally taken from our first session in Geneva in Autumn 2006.Hitoshi processed Carole's viola and voice thorough various effectors in realtime. And we kept playing until the studio space was totally filled with our harmony and noises.Although the sound was quite rough, the experience in the space was strong enough to impress ourselves.("Lunastus" in "Sporing Promenade" is also taken from a part of the sess…
Jemh Circs
Edition of 300 copies Cellule 75 is a new label set up by Black To Comm's Marc Richter to release Black To Comm related music and a few select retrospective issues. The first release is the debut LP by Richter's somewhat arcane Jemh Circs alias, primarily working with voice samples culled from YouTube videos of modern-day pop music and the odd avant-garde curiosity, crafting seemingly simple loops and samples into minimal yet haunting songs, tunes, miniatures. Compared to his previous outings, …
Principles of inertia
Stefan Jaworzyn continues his return on Blackest Ever Black, Kye, and his own, revived Shock imprint, with some freaky, almost funked-up gear for the excellent Trensmat label. Miles from his best known releases with Skullflower and Whitehouse, 'Principles Of Inertia' is focussed on roiling rhythms and scratchy, ghoulish modular synth noise ripe for deviant industrial discos and mouldy bedrooms. It's a spitting, virulent pack of four crackers veering between the squirrelly synth spurts and breakb…
First / Dew, The Hikuioto Selection
2013 release. Boris Hegenbart takes a dub-like approach to musique concrète. Rich contrasts, drawn between synthetic and recorded sounds, allow texture and space to flourish in place of melody. First / Dewbranches away from the very beginnings of Hegenbart's [#/TAU] series. It takes his debut album, Hikuioto (a self-published CD released in 1996), and reimagines it on vinyl.
Olives and Orchids
Terrific stuff from Chicago's Herculaneum – a fresh, modern take on postbop and 60s avant garde jazz that's as addictive as anything the group has done to date – possibly their best yet! The group is a sextet with four horns, providing a really energetic front – with parts that give way to looser, improvistational moments, before rolling back into a tighter groove. The compositions are split between drummer and vibes player Dylan Ryan and alto sax player David McConnell – and the group…
Panisperna
MIE unveils, after long gestation, Panisperna, the first long player by Jantar, an outer-borough ensemble historically known for their creeping strain of easy-listening, most often heard in empty lots and abandoned diners. Chad Laird and Tianna Kennedy have grown an experimental cover crop since 2009, gently cultivating a soil rich in ambient leaf rot and organic art-world chemical compounds. With the addition of Kirsten Nordine, Jantar began to run it through with speculative roots and melodic …
Hevoset
Hevoset is the duo of two of the most enigmatic individuals of the Finnish Underground, namely Jan Anderzen and Jani Hirvonen, both hailing from Tampere. Anderzen is ringleader of a mysterious multitudinous beast known as Kemialliset Ystävät (Fonal Records), a part-time member of Avarus and Islaja and records solo as Tomutonttu (Ultra Exzema, Beta-Lactam Ring Records) with a new album coming out on Dekorder this year (hopefully). Hirvonen is best-known under his Uton monicker with two LP’s on De…
Decimus/Hobo Sunn
Here’s a split LP from prolific dark electronic noise weirdo and NNCK founder Pat ‘Decimus’ Murano. Lovely screenprinted sleeve and has one track by the former and two by the latter. In an era where compositional abstract music has been co-opted by studious arrangers obsessed with process, where forbears have been kidnapped by pop stars, and where the noiseniks have all turned to techno beats, this split LP by Decimus (Pat Murano) and Hobo Sonn (Ian Murphy) presents a triumphant return to the fr…
Wary the mind
"Wary the Mind is the long awaited second LP by Hobo Sonn following the self-released debut - The Thundering Nature of Reality. Constructed using electronics, effects, piano, sampler, mixer, field recordings, etc., this album presents an audible voyage that meticulously weaves together seemingly random reference points into a cohesive yet perplexing whole. Side one begins with processed feedback shifting amongst tape hiss/static and muted drones where intermittent signals of disintegrate…
Hegenrax
**200 copies** After his last release got Aphex Twin’s seal of approval with tracks featured in his-majesty’s DJ-sets last year, Holy Similaun debuts on OOH-sounds with the new EP Hegenrax. The work (to be read He-gen-rax) attempts to explore the fascination for contradiction and the opposites in a conceptual framework by ideally contrasting a motor disorder (Apraxia) caused by damage to the brain and a controlled chemical reaction (Heterogeneous Catalysis), and places its music where the bounda…
A Lion's Baptism
2013 Release. Even if you pride yourself on your boundless appetite for weird music, Innercity’s A Lion’s Baptism will ruffle the cilia in your ears in novel ways. On his debut for Further Records, Innercity (hyper-prolific Antwerp Belgium producer Hans Dens) shoves typical notions of rhythms into the abyss and conjures a murky mystique. Endlessly fascinating bafflement ensues. A Lion’s Baptism starts with deceptive conventionality, as “the essence of the earth as arch as arc” fades in wi…
Choosing Your Own Brand Of Evil
BloodLust! is very pleased to announce the release of the new album by Iugula-Thor, from Milan, Italy. Iugula-Thor, the nom de guerre of Andrea Chiaravalli, burst onto the post-industrial music scene in the early 1990s, with two striking releases on Minus Habens Records. First, the cryptic The Wheel Of The Process 12-inch single and then the commanding debut album, Forced Flesh. Iugula-Thor has morphed and mutated through styles including dark atmospheric electronics, ritualistic industrial, pur…
The Union | A Hem of Evening
Named one of the ten best solo acoustic guitar albums of the year by The Out Door and a top ten album of the year by The Liminal, Tom Lecky’s debut album as Hallock Hill elicited a powerful response when it was first released on CD by Hundred Acre Recordings last May. The album’s unique assembly of stacked and layered acoustic, electric and lap steel guitars delivered a new kind of studio improvisation: pieces that were spontaneously made, yet feel composed, pieces that glide from harmonio…
