Manifesto Rumoratorio
Hailing from Sicily is the duo of Pietro La Rocca & Patrycja Stefanek. We last heard from Pietro via the OPER'azinoe Nafta lp, Cavuru from a decade ago. But this is in stark contrast to that. Utilizing delays, toys, voice, guitars, tapes & objects, TR conjures up a rabble as singular as Cromagnon, ONO, or any other of the One Percenters you wanna rat out. I released this lp knowing it would speak to practically no one at the time, but it is a grower, I promise you that. IT HAD TO EXIST. Fans of …

Postcards
Gen Ken Montgomery, a New York-based Visual Artist and Sound Composer is absolutely genuine; he has no training in traditional music or art. He was never a follower of any direction or school. Instead he founded his own school of off-beat DIY-electronics, driven by irresistible curiosity and ingenuous enthusiasm for sound experimentation and process-oriented performance.His music is dense and full of polyrhythms and counter harmonies with singular control over layers of randomly pul…
