Maurizio Bianchi
Bianchi began to produce music in 1979, since 1980 using electronic equipment with the avowed goal "to produce technological sounds and in such a way to work on complete realising of the modern decadence". In the beginning, he published tapes under the alias Sacher-Pelz. Until 1984, Bianchi published on other labels intensively as either MB or simply Maurizio Bianchi, sometimes several albums and/or tapes per year, as well as numerous tracks to compilations. Bianchi became religious and withdrew himself from the music business. Much of his work is sought today by collectors, especially as they appeared in extremely small editions

Concredrones
M.B., also known as Maurizio Bianchi doesn’t need much introduction. In the early 80s he was responsible for a string of compelling electronic music albums in the first wave of ‘industrial music’. After a hiatus of many years he returned in the late 90s and since then has been very active with many new solo releases, but also on the side with collaborations. Here he works with Mario Costa, also known as Sostrah Tinnitus, from Italy, who has had a number of releases on labels as Umbra, Beyond, My…

Menses
*Numbered edition of 206 copies pressed on 180 gram Menstrual Blood Red vinyl* Reissue of the private LP edition of 300 copies from 1981; the pyramidal construction of these two 'suites,' with its intentionally brutal and grotesque deformations, elaborates on overflowing and apocalyptical collapse, dragging a completely dissolvent conception of the world and of the para-industrial sound. Bonus tracks: 'Milan Bruits' from the Fix Planet! comp (Ata Tak) and the two tracks first issued in the v…
Tibetan slide art (the Come Organisation Files)
Limited edition of 413 copies in dvd box including a numbered insert with a M.B. essay from 1982 titled After The Entrance, The Final Solution. The material conained here was previously issued under the moniker Leibstandarte SS MB. The moniker Leibstandarte SS MB and the nazi speeches that were added to the music were used without Maurizio Bianchi knowledge and without his consent. Cassette releases on the Come Organistaion Label, hence the Liebstandarte SS prefix, added by William Bennet…

M.B. is an Italian pioneer of noise music, born near Milan.

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 …
Spiritual Noises
Historical collaboration between two of the fathers of Italian (and not only Italian) Old-School Industrial, Maurizio Bianchi and Mauthausen Orchestra."Creating noise is determined by the presence of an original particle to which randomly apply an alteration to convey a voltage-activated disturbing that determinates the electrophonic perturbation. As a result we obtain the spiritual noisesMO_disturbo"
Sounds by M.B.: ancient loops, modern metals and futuristic waves and M.O. :synthesizer, loops,…
Hibernum
Exclusive work by Italian noise legend Maurizio Bianchi.A marginal division of the whole existence in four palpable seasons, marked by pestilential changes in emotional hemisphere. At the end, the hibernating organisms organize a reproducing molecule of environmental for a silent "hybernum".‘Hibernum’ contains 3 lengthy, slowly shifting atmospheres for private meditation.
Computers S.p.A. / Com.SA
Released 2010 by At War With False Noise: Second in the At War series of early CD issues of tapes by noise legend Maurizio Bianchi. This has been a long time coming and I promise the next installment (Mectypo/Blut since you ask) won't take so long and should surface early next year. Both these albums are lofi, featuring very primitive use of synthesizer, tape loops and tape manipulation. There's a real charm and otherworldly feel to them, There's something very prescient about MB's explorations …
Ludium
A long and almost solemn track built with reverberated piano notes, a slow and rhythmical flow leaned on a background made of clashing hisses and vague, distant, rustling ambient noises. A brief interval based on obscure drones moving in circles, inexorably entangled on themselves. Then another long piano-based track, this time more dilated, confused, ethereal and prim, so much that it takes the distinguishing features of an indecipherable sonic mass, abstract and booming, estranging, deep and …
Loopspool
a CDr with recent MB works, representing the radicalization of the fragmentary approach in Maurizio Bianchi's music. A cosmic journey!
Nervo/Hydra
First issued as a limited private tape in 1981.2010 re-issue of 500 copies on Kubitsuri Tapes (Japan).
NH/HN
The Italian sound experimentalist/ industrialist Maurizio Bianchi/M.B. needing not any introduction comes here reissued. "NH/HN" is one of M.B.'s earliest tapes, recorded and released back in September 1980. Not to be confused with the "Nervo/Hydra" tape (1981) which was ilegally reissued by several labels which wrongly entitled them as this one. Synthesizers, radio transmissions, concrete noises and weird vocals are the elements used on this recording by M.B to create a parallel reality …
A M.B. Iehn Tale
The brand new release of Maurizio Bianchi (M.B.). Similar to his early experimental bionic – industrial masterpiece like The Plain Truth, Armaghedon, Endometrio and Carcinosi, this album presents eight decomposed tracks with slow, obscure and meditative music… Cold atmospheres and reverberating piano… Really one of Maurizio Bianchi best work to date!!! Dedicated to all the meditative people who is living in the environmental paradise.
Kathamenja
Depurative decomposition for electro-metabolic apparatus, originally secreted during the second half of 6030 Annus Mundi, then definitively flowed on 6034 Annus Mundi'In the informal medicalese, "kathamenja" is the synonymous for sanguiferous menstruations, gory menses, bleeding period, but the self-regulation of veritable sparingness infringes the obscurantist prototype for melanotic legalization. The halogen inspiration dispraises every particle of this conveyer opus, until the cankerous anae…
PU 94
Here at last is a deserved and “rightful” CD re-release of this fantastic collaboration created in 2007 by Maurizio Bianchi and Craig Hilton. Until now this recording was only made available in a very limited CD-R edition. Extremely dark atmospheres, restless and dramatic… Sharp masses of metallic noises cleave pulsating substrates of low frequencies, mixed with magmatic agglomerates of more processed sounds of an unrecognizable nature… Moments of stasis and apparent quietness… Handfuls of…
Neurotransmitters
Crashing, cascading sounds, like thunderous storms. A perfect example of industrial droning ambient. Releasing collaborations since 2006 this is the 5th work they've done together. An amazing album consisting of two long tracks dealing with Drone and Dark Ambient/ Noise.
