Kreuzung Zwei (Creatura Per Creaturam Continetur)
2008 release ** "The second in Kreuzung collaborations series. The basic sound sources and samples made by Reutoff especially for this release have been treated, arranged and mixed with an addition of their own instrumental parts by Troum. Dark profound harsh ambient with some occasional rhythmic patterns intertwined with transcendental prepared guitar loops and perfect drone noises - a perfect blend between two project distinctive features and creative manners. The concept of this work is based…
Gridshape
2012 release ** "Gridshape is an intersection of heavily distorted violent sounds with points of kinetic aural quietness through the interaction between digital electronics and guitars. Franz Rosati: Electronics, distorted guitars. Francesco Saguto: Classic, distorted, prepared guitars."
Flame
2014 release ** "Erik K Skodvin (Deaf Center, Svarte Greiner) finalizes his nocturnal Americana-inspired pair of albums with Flame, the follow up to 2010 ´s Flare. The embers of Flare smolder patiently, searching to ignite the live branch that will grow into Flame. Within minutes, everything in your surroundings changes, everything you thought it would be, it is not. Building on Skodvins past palette of sound with a quiet intensity, the album moves you further along film-noir backyards and ocean…
Lanterner
2011 release ** "The debut release from Lanterner was recorded in a scummy practice pit and a high end media arts research institute. Borrowing the keys, late at night, this release was culled from live sessions, practice sessions, late night overdubs and mistakes. A quickly fastened mic in a practice space to carefully mic’d headphones in a cardboard box - techniques chosen for mood gold not textbooks. These songs Throb and Drift with a Lean Tension and pulsing, dreamt, attempt at escape(s), du…
Stray Shafts Of Sunlight
2013 release ** "Three pieces recorded live in 2007 but just released. Ultra-quiet approach of electroacoustic improvisation. Guionnet on sax and microphones, La Casa on microphones and laptop, Samartzis on laptop and electronics. All three also play (with) silence. Each sonic intervention is delicated set in relation with what is (and is not) around it. Three sound stories with a thin yet consistent abstract narrative."
Octante
2005 release ** Limited edition of 200 copies. "The Iberian trio of Fages, Barberan and Costa Monteiro have been working together in Barcelona for long enough now to have developed a distinct language of tension, scraped metallic dynamics and a rough, textural abrasiveness. A trio with a great, off-kilter and unexpected instrumentation (there can’t be many acoustic turntable/ engines, trumpet and accordion trios kicking about Barcelona – although it’s a while since I’ve been there) they build lo…
Overdeveloped pigeons
2011 release ** Limited to 200 copies. "Alessandra Rombolá (flutes and objects) and Michel Doneda (soprano and sopranino saxophones, radio, objects) set off to discover rare birds whose breath provides the momentum: plaintive, expressive, even vocal birds, or more common game which, if it doesn't play the overdeveloped braggart a bit, is all the more forgotten. In place of songs, which follow one another, it seems, according to the artificial development of the said species (from fragments of pi…
Guo1
2017 release ** "GUO is the duo of guitarist and singer Daniel Blumberg (Hebronix, The Howling Hex) and saxophonist Seymour Wright. Both use heavy distortion and extreme amplification which is later processed and manipulated with metal cassettes to create a multi-layered, lacquered object of sinister, fizzing, metallic beauty. GUO1 with text by David Toop, was the beginning of an on-going series of releases that include etchings made by the duo and a piece of ekphrasis from a creative writer res…
IIN
2012 release ** "Darius Ciuta, Lithuanian architect, sound artist, born 1966, is an artist that definitely can not be pigeonholed for the marketing purposes of narrative and aesthetic unidrectional coherence, although if you stand between and shuffle through his work you will find a labyrinth of communicating vessels. His works  explore continuously new alphabets spectrums, building an intricate vocabulary of frequencies and densities as translations and transformations (exchange between sound a…

Are You an Orchid or a Dandelion?
2019 release ** "Here’s a duo called Cyanobacteria, consisting of Francesco Gregoretti (drums) and Renato Gricco (double bass), teaming up one day in September 2016 with Carl Ludwig Hübsch, a well-known improviser playing the tuba. The duo has a similar background, even if I only heard of Gregoretti before. The five tracks span fifty-two minutes and form an on-going exploration of ideas, textures and all of that within the world of improvisation. It is a meeting of like-minded people, with one f…

2009 release ** Limited edition of 100 hand-numbered copies.

Manhattan [Linear, Circular, Lateral]
2004 release (light storage wear) ** "Guy De Bièvre, a Belgian composer and guitarist, worked in the urban environment of New York until he focused on a particular sound frequency (60 Hz), then isolated it and assembled it in the various sequences that make up this portrait of Manhattan. The various compositions go to `simulate` different auditory approaches: linear - simulation of a walk on Broadway, approximately from 123rd Street to Battery Park; circular - simulation of listening from the to…

Ambient noise from several parallel events taking place in Greece at the time of recording has deliberately not been removed.

Sitting on Theories on the Frontier on Extension
2003 release ** Pplastic and paper slipcase, each copy with a unique hammer imprint. "Akin to Erik Satie’s advice to the performer of his Vexations to prepare oneself with some “serious immobilities”, Cal Crawford here examines the impossibilities of holding still. For ‘sitting on theories on the frontier on extension’, his first full length solo CD, he generated sounds by sitting on top of a bundle of blankets with a microphone rolled up into its center. This one hour process was his starting p…
