Knar
2008 release ** "Legendary album in remastered version,including two rare tracks, edition in new layout. 'Knar' is one of the most important releases in history of Different State.

Euterpe Sequence
1998 release ** "Second release by Wales based duo. 17th century inspired ambient sound that varies from droning transcendental stillness to guitar and effects noisescapes bordering on the works of Merzbow and Total."
Cicatrici
2004 release ** OvO is a project of music and life. OvO are Stefania Pedretti (also singer and guitar player of Allun) and Bruno Dorella (ex Wolfango, Bugo, Lava, now involved in many bands and boss of Bar La Muerte records), often joined by friends that belong to many different musical scenes. Bruno and Stefania basically started this project to stay together: they were used to follow their partner's different bands on tour, but they were also sick of the problems that every band has connected …
Il Giardino Dell'Ossigeno
2010 release ** "...scraps of ulcerated, painful, immensely precarious songs. how to continue using a polaroid to fix images and faces with the awareness that what will stand out in the image, afterwards, will be the absence, not the living detail. It is a harsh and not at all consoling songwriting by Stefano Giaccone, one of the few "true" names of libertarian musical antagonism. here Giaccone uses a technological "zero degree" that is not at all trendy, a sort of epitome of unplugged: the guit…

Spazmatic[k] Spell
2008 release ** "This album, dedicated to A.O. Spare include 60 minutes of pure magic[k]al sounds conceived by two projec[k]ts: Different State and Sigill. Each of them represents a slightly different approach, although they are both connected by mystic[k]al, alc[k]emical, ritual character. Marchoff (Different State) describes his music as alchembient. This sums his work up perfectly. It’s a mix of illbient a bit in the vein of Coil or Psychic TV, a great deal of alchemical incantations and moan…
Yield
2011 release ** "The publication contains remastered versions of songs that were first released on the Yield cassette in 1995 by I&E SPM and a bonus in the form of two songs from the ‚Cardinal Mosaic’ release. When this material appeared on our scene over 15 years ago, someone said: Americans have Ministry, English have Godflesh and Poles have Different State. This is the best summary of what is on this album. These words best reflect the atmosphere of this album."
Luz Nacarina
1999 release ** "Javier Hernando: from 1979, as a founder member o the legendary post-punk group from Barcelona Xerox, has produced different works of electronic music under identities like Melodinamica, Sensor, Sinusoidal, or under his own name. Parallel to this, he was cofounder of the label Ortega y Cassette (1981) and made during 10 years the program Los Silencios de la Radio in Radio Pica.

Cavitation
2005 release ** "The interaction between computer science technology and freeform musical creative process becomes a central point in this international collaboration of three artists from Belarus and USA. The abstract soundscapes are obscured by intricate structures, acoustic phenomena and electronic effects, it’s going to infinity and never repeat itself. The finest harmony of soundfield is credited to the principles of intuitive simulation, realised through the system of computer-aided instru…
Transparent Skin
2011 release ** "Canadian drummer André Michel Arraiz-Rivas is a versatile guy, one who you find grinding out prog with Quasiviri and post-folk ghosts with Ronin, just to name a few. Then he happens to be seized by the urge for jazz, and here he is, whipping together a made in Italy quartet, calling it Mondongo – like a traditional hypercaloric South American soup – and releasing an album that will make your ears prick up. Transparent Skin – this is the title – is eight tracks plus one (ghost) i…
Wealth
2006 release ** "This is the first solo album of Norwegian composer and musician Jørgen Knudsen who was a founding member of highly acclaimed duo Information. This duo had an unique combination of sound and creative methods as well as their interest in connecting music with visuals, texts, dances etc. Information released a few fantastic albums on labels such as Beatservice and Rune Grammofon. Jørgen had been working on his first solo album during last few years, recording and collecting the aud…
Komu Mam To Powiedzieć?
2006 release ** "The Krakow band Bordo, celebrating their tenth anniversary, has given us the album 'Komu mam to pomaga?'. Post-rock, psychedelic, sometimes dark - this is the music of the Bordo group. The term space-rock fits it perfectly. When recording the album 'Komu mam to pomaga?', the artists chose twelve songs from the fifty prepared ones, which gave an hour of material. The crazy music is accompanied by equally psychedelic lyrics, or rather phrases repeated over and over again, such as …
Howling Silence
2008 release ** Limited edition of 300 hand numbered copies.
The Haunting Triptych
2010 release ** "Truly intriguing is the fusion of intent between Pietro Riparbelli (K11, Radical Matters) and Philippe Petit (Bip_HOp, Strings of Consciousness) who develop three pieces of menacing and dense dark ambient that bring to mind the best releases by Lustmord and Nurse With Wound. As mentioned, "The Haunting Triptych" is divided into three parts and each of them appears as a work plan interlocked with the others but arranged on a different angle. "Residual Spookiness" has the merit of…
Chroma
2007 release ** "Split over seven tracks 'chroma' is a beautiful swarming forty five-minute suite of pieces. A warm, almost angelic hue of sound radiates from 'chroma' giving it a pure, optimistic feeling that only fades with the last dying notes. Weightless and saturated in it's waves of sound, all you have to do is listen.."

'I'm sure we're gonna make it' is the first time English edition of the 1996 book 'Het gejuich was massaal', detailing punk in the Netherlands from 1976 to 1982 from Jeroen Vedder and Jerry Goossens.

A Companion As Glamorous As Sleeping On Wheels
2003 release ** "Not only did Julian Bradley (of Vibracathedral Orchestra) adopt the hilariously cumbersome moniker A Companion as Glamorous as Sleeping on Wheels to use in place of (and/or in addition to?) his own name, he also released this album under his own name, with ACAGASOW as it's title. Lots of shorter pieces here, recorded between 1997 and 2000, released as a CD by the Belgian label Veglia."
The Blue Horse
2025 stock ** Sholto Dobie is an artist and performer born in Edinburgh and living in London. His solo output is marked by live performances that are characteristically delicate, evocative, and absurd. He uses his own instruments, crudely assembled from materials such as reeds, whistles, bin bags, fans, and air compressors, alongside loose performative structures, to respond to places and situations. He plays in Al Fresco (with Lia Mazzari and Tom White) and regularly collaborates with Ben Pritc…
