Liber Lelle (CDr)
2008 release ** "Here’s a beautifully delicate arrangement of ritualistic ambient sounds – I believe from Italy? – released on Russian label Abgvrd.

Among the instruments listed in use on Liber Lelle are bells, cymbals, mandolin, balalaika, zither, accordion, and flutes. These instruments do not generally make a presence through traditional means but instead they are use…

Drakos, father and Alex Drakos, son, authors of music, lyrics and vocal lines, whose musical proposal is an industrial techno music, strongly influenced, on a textual level, by the anarcho punk ideology, while on a musical level we are close to shores such as the techno music of the nineties and the more “raw” industrial of Einsturzende Neubauten, but also to the more politically engaged one of KMFDM. Wanti…
Memoires D'Oubli - Stream - Portrait de Genevieve Asse - Empreintes Nocturnes
1993 release (RARE) ** "This disc, which brings together recent works with two pieces from 1981, allows for a very interesting journey. It is here with Bernard Noël, a relentless questioner of our language, that these Mémoires d’oubli open. With a philharmonic orchestra at its best, which is not always the case when playing contemporary music, the singer Helen Merrill and Bernard Noël himself bring to life a text that goes from simple phonemes to a beautiful poem on the theme of the face. Instru…
Antimother
2003 release ** ""Anti Mother is a follow-up from Czech ambient-industrial pioneers The Three, whose works foresaw and predestined the musical algorithms and the development the Czech industrial scene. After their last studio session in 1995, which resulted in seven compositions that blazed the trail later walked by such artists as Steve Roach or Yen Pox, Project the Three’s activity was frozen. After eight years of hibernation they have metamorphosized into Anti Mother.""

The Great Paris Concert
Cecil Taylor has always been considered one of the most daring and radical improvisers within the jazz genre, often pushing the boundaries with avant-garde and free jazz compositions. The Great Paris Concert is no exception Taylor's reputation. The artistic communication between the players of Taylor's quartet is second to none, and it's certainly palpable on every track of the album. Echoing each other's melodies, and 'battling' each other with solos, the group may have never sounded better. Th…

Phlegmaticus
1999 release ** "Maurizio Pustianaz is the mentor of Gerstein a one-man sound project that from the mid-80s to the end of the 90s, was creating authentic underground electronic gems. Already in the new century, Pustianaz opted for the most bland and commercial electro, something that he has been doing until now, a real shame.

Not the entire original Rapoon's tracks have been re-mixed or re-composed, but the general “sound” (or the sound aesthetic of Rapoon's music) instead. All the artists have provided their own original compositions, that less or more based on the audio-sources from Rapoon. The album “G…
Thinking Dust
2005 release ** "After a few CD-R releases, Wolfram's "first real album", released by the newly established Monotype label from Warsaw.

Wolfram never explored the sounds of "post-club" or naive el-music, so his work has always been free from rainbow idyll, instead it was disturbing (without evoking ghosts or …
