Mermaids
** Edition of 250 copies ** Mermaids includes four tracks composed and recorded in early 2013. The concepts of the work are built around freedom - expressed by the use of the audio glitch - and unity framed in metaphors of water and transformation. All sound sources are mostly from the human voice. Jo Thomas is a London-based composer teaching sound design, composition and music technology at the University of East London. Her compositional work is primarily focused on the use of human voice, mi…
Physical Point
** Edition of 200 copies ** Lettera 22 is the duo of Matteo Castro and Riccardo Mazza, two main characters in the Italian noise and experimental scene, building incredible collages of field recordings and abused dynamics. The lucky few who attended their live set at the Dome in London for the Broken Flag 30th Anniversary - where they caused a speaker stack to fall over, almost setting fire to it - saw their potential unleashed and knows what we mean by saying that they have an incredible control…
Pointless Vanishing Point
** Edition of 200 copies ** Back on wax after a four-year hiatus, Claudio Rocchetti gives us a one-sider vinyl assembled at home - in Auerstr. 7, Berlin - with the inspiration of the work by Robert Smithson. Including a sample from Trilogie de la Mort by Eliane Radigue and some sounds provided on purpose by Al Doum, Von Tesla and Stefano Pilia, "Pointless Vanishing Point" is a three-parted journey into the recurring environment of awkward sounds and slow frequencies interrupted by a distant soun…
Reelin
Limited edition of 250 copies in a deluxe LP with embossed lettering and printed inner. Giuseppe Ielasi and Nicola Ratti reconvene their wonderfully enigmatic Bellows project with a ghostly album for Entr'acte. 'Reelin'' is the third document of their hardware-honed endeavours, and much like their eponymous debut on Kning Disk and celebrated side for Planam, we're left with little background info other than their equipment list. Navigating between a CDJ/Sony Walkman/Revox A77/Memory Man, they cr…
Dimethyl Atonal Calcine
RESTOCKED, Last copies of this private edition, available from february 2006 and sold at concerts, two unreleased tracks with a distinctive noise feel
Tragic Pote B/W Jerusalem Stone
Aviram Cohen is a jerk. Who cares if he was in SIlk Flowers, Soiled Mattress and The Springs, or that he has a new project called Volunteers Park ? You can tell that his parents are immigrants. He’s a suburbanite from New Jersey, and now, another New Yorker with an attitude, who learned how to use a sequencer to program synths and drum machines, so that he can sing about how boring life can be. It’s like he’s creating all this atmosphere because it’s lacking in his life. It sounds like someone i…
Afternoon Summer Sex
Solo project of long-time superstar Mike Connelly (Wolf Eyes, Hair Police) building the perfect negative of his bands - but still walking a similar path of his bandmates' solo work - trading noise for quiet and jolts for scraping echoes. Afternoon Summer Sex - so far the second LP release by Failing Lights for 2012 - is a black swamp full of analog processing, whirling drones, chiming tones and shrouded electronic crackles. A slow-pace listen of minimal repetiton that gives the idea of an eterna…
Drag It Away
The perfect basement ritual perpetrated by creepy guitars, acoustic drones, echo waves and frying amps that will bring your memory back to the first recordings of LA dungeon pysch trio Robedoor. Previously released as a limited tape by Shawn Reed's Night People, finally this little gem sees again the light on the vinyl format it deserves - in a slightly remastered version - dressed to party in a new cover artwork by Amanda Brown.
Threnody for Marcus Junius Brutus
Atmospheric radical electronics at their highest peak. Key of Shame is the creature born from the collaboration of Mark Morgan (Sightings) and Pat Murano (No Neck Blues Band, Decimus, Malkuth, K. Salvatore) revealing the black side of psychedelics.
This session has been recorded live in the WFMU Studio (engineered by Glenn Luttman) edited by Pat Murano and mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi. A journey through industrial minimalism evolving from bubbling metal drones into indecipherable structures of su…
Perdu - Mystery Bass - Solo Electric Bass
I don't know when this music was recorded, why it was composed, what for, when... I know it is me playing and I know it is only my bass, I know there is no other sounds (as I never use pre-recorded sounds). I found this recording on a blank CDr, at home. nothing written on - what is this? Yes, it is me, for sure and it was obviously a composed piece - the structure is quite unusual. I did not touch, edited or mixed it in any way. And not being able to remember what it was, I called it "mystery b…
Decimus 9
*300 copies limited release* Seventh in a on-going series of twelve electronic meditations on the zodiac of Decimus Magnus Ausonius (310-395) as played by Pat Murano of No Neck Blues Band, K Salvatore, Malkuth and Key of Shame.This one is for sure the creepiest and most disturbing chapter of the series so far, with swathes of electronics melting with the highest tones of misterious lullabies from somewhere far away, keeping the listeners ear firmly at ground level.
Celestial Joy
Celestial Joy has been recorded by Edmund Xavier at Video West in San Francisco in occasion of Horrid Red first West Coast tour and first ever live appearances. As from the title, Celestial Joy is a step away from the depressive synth punk of their first releases. Instead, there is some sort of light cleaved through this album, though only a weak light can filter to the depth of the dark environment we are moving in. The recording session saw the newly established core trio of Edmund Xavier, Bun…
Magpie Attack On The Back Road To Albert Town
1st 7" in chunky black vinyl inspired, in name at least, by childhood memories of being divebombed while cycling to a friends house by territorial Australian magpies nesting in pine trees alongside the road. Quiet/loud messy drones featuring a tambura and some chimes amongst other toys, recorded mid-way through 2007 in rainy old London town.
Acoustic solo percussion-vol.1
Swiss percussionist Christian Wolfarth has a long resumé in jazz and improvised music, but I daresay this is probably the first bright red single he has been on. The first of four planned volumes, it pairs a lovely drone (presumably bowed cymbal/rubbed skin) with a very oddly lopsided full kit attack. That piece combines a constantly shifting base pattern with cymbal glare in a wunderfully upsetting manner.’ - Byron Coley, The Wire 309, November 2009’That "volume 1" leads us to suppose that volu…
Discordia
Talvihorros is the work of Scotland based composer and producer Ben Chatwin, working in the field of ambient electronics. Through his distinctive approach to analogue electronics, he crafts dense collages of sound that hint at the conflicting beauty and chaos of the cosmos. ‘Discordia’ and ‘Mechanica’ are the first new recordings to be released by Talvihorros since 2014’s ‘Eaten Alive’ an album that explored the darker recesses of life. Continuing along in that vein these two visceral pieces are…
Make / Tokyonin
Fratto9 present a special volume of the “seven inch series”, a series of coloured 7 inches in limited and numbered edition of 200, this time covering Veryan Weston and Scanner. "Veryan Weston "Make" Make is a collaborative project which, at the moment involves my partner - Jill Weston and singer Iris Ederer. Language can generate structure as well as meaning. The project uses 52 quotations by women writers and can be used in various ways. These ways will be determined by the situation in wh…
Der Graben
**Edition of 500** Der Graben ("The Ditch") is the "final" joint release by these two legendary noisemakers The New Blockaders and Organum, who have been collaborating for years. Or perhaps their collaborations all happened within a limited period of time, and these periodic releases have simply been documenting their work a few minutes at a time. Here they present two extremely short tracks, which may or may not be from their archive of collaborations. Sides A and B together total a mere 3 minu…
Kauf Nicht Von TPK
One step back on the timeline of half German, half American postmodern punks Teenage Panzerkorps. A collection of released, unreleased and compilation tracks recorded between 2003 and 2006, including some songs featured on the long out-of-print Nations Are Insane CD-R. Der TPK recall the kraut-rock of Can and Neu! with a cuttin-edge lo-fi allure influenced by Savage Republic and The Ex. The result is an exclusive blend of obscure sounds and confused German vocals buried under layers of guitars, …
Sator
Tip! "The mystery of the ancient and puzzling magic Sator square is evoked again in present time through five dark tracks entitled like the five palindromes that form its fascinating structure: Sator / Arepo / Tenet / Opera / Rotas. Amon (Andrea Marutti), the most important and estabilished italian Dark-Ambient project, and Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio), a well-known and eclectic alchemist of electronic-ethnic-acoustic-ambient sound mixtures, gathered together and worked side by side for some weeks…
