Alternate Moon Cycles
Rob Mazurek’s 'Alternate Moon Cycles' was International Anthem's first release. The incredibly spare single-note-centered cornet, bass and organ chant was recorded to tape at pint-sized Chicago bar Curio as part of a performance series that predates any notion of our label’s existence. Documenting this performance – highly unique even within the depths of Mazurek’s vast catalog – stirred those notions, and soon talks began of releasing the recording on a fresh imprint. Performed by Mazurek with …
My Spare Time

Geometry of Murder: Extra Capsular Extraction Inversions
On Geometry of Murder: Extra Capsular Extraction Inversions, Earth x Black Noi$e stretch the 1991 debut into an even slower, more vaporised continuum, where Carlson’s primordial drones are rerouted through modern electronics into a smeared, time‑dilated echo of the original.

Pangalactic Performer
Comes with a 60-page booklet. Before Wendy Carlos, before Tangerine Dream, before the synthesizer had found its way into the lexicon of popular music, John Mills-Cockell was already there. Born in Toronto in 1943, he acquired his Moog modular - the first in Canada - from Robert Moog himself in late 1967, reportedly on the same day Carlos collected hers. What he did with it was stranger, wilder, and more difficult to classify than almost anything else happening in electronic music at the time.

In the Box
Confusional Quartet was one of the most original and unique bands to ever come out of Italy, and one of the few bands able to switch from the prog rock era to dislocated art forms, painting their music with traces of early electronica and a post-punk twist (read: no wave). A bridge linked the band from Bologna (rock) to the musical past and present of the nation, with senses of urgency and creativity on top and a revolutionary aesthetic revealed between the lines. No lyrics -- the music was trul…
