Where Does Your Mind Go?
**1st pressing limited to 500 copies, pressed at RTI. Includes mp3 download coupon redeemable directly from the label** An utterly absorbing and time-dilating double LP of masterful synth music from one of the scene's most prolific and respected sons, Expo 70 aka Justin Wright, together with Matt Hill - who recently dropped that brilliant Umberto album on Not Not Fun. Aiming a few notches above the reams of DIY tape spools, 'Where Does Your Mind Go?' was recorded professionally at the studio of …
Das Platinzeitalter
Bianchi began to produce music in 1979, at the peak of the industrial scene since 1980 using electronic equipment with the avowed goal 'to produce technological sounds and in such a way to work on complete realizing of the modern decadence,' but his works harked back to the musique concrete of the 1950s. This LP is a return to his early work. Maurizio Bianchi/M.B.: archaic waves, ancient loops, primitive electronics.
Psychic Secession
This is the third Yellow Swans vinyl release on Weird Forest and they've really tattooed it out of the ballpark on this one. It's a pulse-pounding, synapse-blasting expedition straight to the cacophonous pleasure points of your innards. It must also be known that it's one of the most grooving releases I've heard all year, dig? Makes me shake it maniacal. Yellow Swans? Yeah, they do all these things, baby. Their ultimate release Ñ simply phenomenal Ñ features a treasure-trove of guests including …
Turkey Decoy
Chubby Wolf was the title used by the late Dani Baquet-Long of Celer for her most glacially refined recordings. Her work is now carefully and lovingly curated by her husband and partner in Celer, Will Long, who has picked one of her most accessible albums 'Turkey Decoy' for this posthumous release on Digitalis. The phosphorescent cybernetic ambience of opener 'Cantankerous Baby' sets an understated tone which continues through the album, across the glassy pond-like reflections of 'Birthday…
Old Souls Wearing New Cloths
Restocked, last copies: limited edition of 323 copies, this LP is a live recording for piano, voice and electronics. Issued in a beautiful red vinyl pressing, it's a terrific minimal droning piano in La Mount Young vein
Live '418
Ainotamenishis is a loud, heavy guitar group from Tokyo who were birthed from one oviduct marked "Velvet Underground" and a massive salpinx marked "Gaseneta." Their high-energy rock 'n' roll action was first captured on an extremely limited CDR release, now released for the first time on vinyl. Ainotamenishis's brand of controlled panic is sure to spike the tongues of all those who purport to talk about the rock. It is primal, punk, eerie, harsh, and utterly essential.
Spiritual Church Movement
Perispirit is the collaborative project of Ricardo Donoso and Luke Moldof, here delivering their debut album proper after a number of cassette editions for Prurient's Hospital Productions and Ricardo's own Semata imprint. The sound they make is brilliantly impossible to categorise, bringing together analogue and digital electronic sound sources to create a freakish organism that reminds you of anything from Keith Fullerton Whitman to Prurient to Autechre to purist musique concrète without…
The Young Cricketer
The Young Cricketer is Chris Corsano's debut of Frankenstein-gamelan skin detail. It's a monster and a babe all wrapped under the guise of The Solo Drum Album. Corsano's flea-market kit of cast-iron pot lids, super-bouncy-balls on sticks, butter knives, and even a sax mouth-piece jammed-in-a-hose conjures a part rhythmic maelstrom, like a Milford Graves drip painting, and the sweet metallic ice drones of Tony Conrad and Keiji Haino rubbing sticks together until end days. Globally known for a doz…
above the law
above the law is a 1988 action film directed by andrew zachariah davis, probably best-known for being the film debut of steven seagal. this tribute album features the full sky juice rock band lineup of s.j. jackson, s.j. jones, stoney freeman, & zac davis and was recorded between 2004 and 2008 in various ohio / michigan / massachusetts basements. except for "electric engram" which is excerpted from an infamous/aborted live radio broadcast on chicago's legendary dance station wgci.
Indeed
Awesome record, exactly as good as you’d expect it to be (Keith Fullerton Withman) "While Oren Ambarchi and Jim O’Rourke have collaborated in a number of forms, from remixes to their acclaimed trio with Keiji Haino, Indeed is their first duo album. One long electro-acoustic exploration (presented here as two side-long pieces), what Ambarchi and O’Rourke proffer up here is also melodic and approachable, bringing to mind the warm post-minimalism of composers like Alvin Curran, David Behrman and L…
Last Days III - Atlantic City
Following volume I (8mm, 2008) and II (Presto?!. 2009), and previously released in a super small cassette edition on Tulip, Stefano Pilia's Last Days III is finally available in a new remastered one sided LP edition. The intuitions of the first two chapters of this series of 'Last days' shine in 'Atlantic City' in all their beauty. Stefano’s touch is so warm and gentle, always unique in creating that feeling of soft, warm nostalgia, loud, and passionate as he’s strumming his strings with …
Blind Jesus
A journey in free improv noise ambient performed by a duo comprised of Stefano Pilia (3/4havebeeneliminated) on guitar, audio collages and effects, and media artist Andrew Hooker on electronics. Higly Recommended
Violence of discovery and calm of acceptance
Considered by the Chicago Reader to be "one of the most gifted and innovative guitarists of the decade", Rafael Toral has been developing in the last 15 years a unique sound world, having been as influenced by Alvin Lucier and Brian Eno as by Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine. Using the guitar as part of a complex electronic instrument, Toral has collaborated with Jim O'Rourke, John Zorn, Sonic Youth, Rhys Chatham and Phill Niblock and played in many European countries and in several states in…
9 Solitaires
Dag Are Haugan is certainly for most people not the most common name. Being half of the legendary Norvegian outfit Alog made him one of the most original musicians of the last decade. At the start of our label we did carry his debut on Myke Droner stating it as “classic". A couple of years further we received this wonderfull demo. You can call it guitar-glitch if you want... The result comes close to a beatless Gas, a more guitar-driven Novisad, etc... Pressed on vinyl-only, with artwork from Ru…
Toads Tools Amongst The Tombstones
Green vinyl with grey. Pengo is: John Schoen, Jason Finkbeiner, R. Nuuja. Pengo comes from Rochester, NY and are simply a dark-bright beacon of madness in the subterranean swamp of psychedelic junk collectors. They're kind of elusive, having issued only an LP prior to this release (it had been a year since we're working on this album) + a few CD-Rs and tapes. Got affiliations with Coffee & the Doyle EAE... wild stuff/weird vibes!
Deep In Ocean Sunk The Lamp Of Light
Earlier this year we all fell in love with the absolutely killer (but sadly ridiculously limited) 'Twisted Stems' 7" from moody Londoners Guapo, and now we have the perfect accompaniment. Aethenor is the project of Daniel O'Sullivan (of Guapo), the prolific and omnipresent Stephen O'Malley (Sunn o))), Khanate, KTL) and Vincent De Roguin and between them they have managed to lay down some of the most earth shatteringly atmospheric and cinematic soundscapes this side of Earth's incredible 'Hex' al…
Shackles of man measured time

Prana
Burn those guitars kids >>>> Synthesizers are all the rage! Heheh it seems there is a new wave of synthesizer music happening at the moment. I must admit I've not heard of this guy before but looking at his discography he's been busy with a ton of underground releases. Here he is totally in New Age mode, another style that seems to have been rejuvenated. I'm digging the computer graphics retro New Age cosmic cyber imagery on the sleeve and it really suits the music. In many ways it harks …
Isomopolis. ICC
Lovely and obscure album of Bertoia/Rutman-lineage metal sound-sculptures from which G. T. Smits coaxes a bizarre array of squawks & resonant thumps...."for a while i thought i was completely lost in the maze that is the recorded archive of George "TOET" Smits, a few years back i got boxes full of cassettes that i have been sitting thru for a few years, a bunch unlabeled, and a lot of recordings from his ZBOLK NIGHT RADIO. George Toet Smits started out playing mouth organ and guitar in Ferre…
