2009 release ** ""TimeBank" is a collection of exclusive compositions recorded by Cyclotimia in 2003-2007 and for some reasons left out of the main albums. The material presented here is hard to fit in the Procrustean bed of common musical styles, but we can try to list the ingredients from which this post-industrial "dish" was cooked: both cyber jazz and idm, neoclassics and trademark technological ambient, old-school electronics and atmospheric new age, experimental and many more can be found …
2025 stock ** "The 7th full-length album from the Russian masters of "stockmarket industrial". "Styx" is the most mainstream-oriented work in the Cyclotimia discography. The music here is free of experimental and academic explorations traditional for the band; here the emphasis is made on the rhythmical component. Inexorable like an economic recession and steadfast like a financial indicator chart, eleven compositions depict the sickly technogenic reality of the planet wrapped by networks of glo…
2006 release ** ""New Death Order" is a powerful mixture of unusual varieties and neat qualities, where orthodox atmospheres hit vigorous impacts, simmering synths, and carefully directed sampling. The musical contrasts, which underline the concepts of the album, decline through consumption and decadence in a cynical manner. Best neo-classic and martial industrial with a touch of sounds from the great mother Russia!"
2010 release ** "As the title suggests, the new work by Russian masters of electronic soundscapes represents a score to an imaginary sci-fi movie. The musicians call themselves admirers of old-school Sci-Fi / Cyberpunk genres, and for a long time they have felt a desire to make some music inspired by soundtracks of sci-fi blockbusters from 70-80-s... Spaceship battles, alien colonies, teleportation and mysterious droid ceremonies are only part of the images created by this music. The album conta…
2012 release ** "Back to basic industrial noise carnage from Matthias Andersson (more known as one half of the chaotic harsh noise duo Heinz Hopf). Recorded in Gothenburg between September 2011 and January 2012 in the aftermath of the Utmarken years, Orientering I Denna Värld is a final closure to the concept initiated on the Öppna Vattendrag (Posh Isolation) and Förändringens Frö (Järtecknet) releases. Gritty, failing electronics, repetitive loops and processed fieldrecordings from the construc…
1995 release ** "These pieces for just-intoned electric guitar, bass violin, cimbalon, percussion and horn section emphasize dynamics and sonorities, achieving stunning acoustical effects. American composer Arnold Dreyblatt (now living in Berlin) studied under minimalist greats LaMonte Young, Pauline Oliveros and Alvin Lucier, and formed the Orchestra Of Excited Strings in 1979. Dreyblatt has released previous albums on India Navigation and Hat Art (Switzerland). The musicians of the Orchestra O…
Following fourteen years of silence, Albergo Intergalattico Spaziale - one of the great projects of radical musical experimentation to have emerged from the 1970s - returns with the sprawling sonic odyssey “Navicomete”. Encountering the legendary husband and wife duo of Giacomo Di Martino and Edda “Terra” di Benedetto working with seminal figures like Walter Maioli, Arturo Stalteri, and Vincenzo Zitello, alongside others, weaving a “suite of sound poetry" into a driving, spaced-out mind-melter, …
Killer. Edition of 300 copies, black vinyl 180gr. At the end of the '60s in Italy - but also abroad, especially in France and England - a very particular trend began to spread, that one known as 'Library music' or 'sonorization': as suggested by its name, those were real music libraries intended for the accompaniment of audiovisual productions such as television programs, advertisements, documentaries and films. Since they were created in total artistic freedom condition, they are often difficul…
The soundtrack of “100,000 Dollars for Ringo”, composed by the talented Bruno Nicolai, stands as a cornerstone of the Italian Western music scene. This 1965 film, directed by Alberto De Martino, tells the story of Lee Barton (played by Richard Harrison), a gunslinger returning to his hometown in search of vengeance and redemption. While it adheres to the classic narrative tropes of the Western genre, the film distinguishes itself through its emotional intensity and some creative directorial touc…
** Rare original copies. Early 80s LP reissue. Unplayed copies from a dead-stock, minor wear due to ageing on covers ** A seismic moment in the history of free jazz, Sonny’s Time Now stands as a raw, uncompromising manifesto of musical liberation. Recorded in New York City in November 1965 and released on the visionary Jihad label founded by LeRoi Jones (Amiri Baraka), this is the first album led by the revolutionary drummer Sonny Murray-and it’s nothing short of essential.
With a lineup that re…
Tip! A lost bit of 70s Italian modal jazz, with spiritual overtones and global percussion from drummer extraordinaire Tullio De Piscopo – an incredible set of heavily rhythmic grooves recorded in Milan in 1978 – originally a tiny edition effort on Carosello Records, and the most impressive rediscovery yet from New Platform! For the occasion, the Tullio De Piscopo Quintet meets Argentine percussionist Luis Agudo, who played for years alongside Brazilian guitarist Baden Powell and later with the…
Tip! Despite the title of the album, it is the Tullio De Piscopo's third work, recorded in 1976. Comprising nine tracks in total across its two sides, “Vol. 2” falls somewhere between fusion and prog, straddling darker, brooding temperaments with joyous, funky lines. Predictably, as is nearly the case with music of this sort, the playing and artistry is top-notch, the band locked together with remarkable precision, but the journey that “Vol. 2” takes is far from expected. Interspersed throughout…
2008 release ** "Iron Molar, roots in the glorious HC of the 90s and present immersed in a noise that the CD artwork denounces as blatantly bastardnoisian. Luckily appearances can be deceiving and, I don't know if intentionally or not, their path takes roads far enough from the noisy rallies and rarefied panoramas of the Bastard Noise project, to face a middle way that is certainly not innovative but at least detached from too easy comparisons. In the tracks of Sounds For An Awesome Suspension …
2001 release ** "For his first CD, Laurent Grappe has created a fascinating electro-acoustic tale. Le Luxe de la Réflexion! (The Luxury of Reflection!) blurs distinctions between field recording and acousmatics, urban and rural, French and Arab. At the center of the work is Isabelle Bassil, a Lebanese woman splitting her time between France and Lebanon. Her life experience, bridging two cultures, provides the main thread. Her interventions are spoken in Arab and other protagonists speak French, …
2001 release ** "Gravitar were an American band who appear to be influenced by K.K. Null’s work in Zeni Geva, with similar dense walls of oppresive guitar but more expansive in it's approach. Self-proclaimed as the "world's loudest Jazz band" and described by WM. Rage as "Too noise for rock, too rock for noise...". Extreme music inspired by everything from Charlie Parker to John Zorn to the sound of breaking glass. Heavy and harsh walls of psychedelic noise!!!"
2004 release ** "Hemophiliac is an experimental musical act. This group is billed as improvisational music from the outer reaches of madness. Mike Patton does voice effects along with John Zorn on saxophone and Ikue Mori on laptop electronics. Volume 6 of John Zorn's 50th birthday party series of concert CD's (ten volumes in total) is the first fully commercially available showcase for the trio's mad improv collision."
2004 release ** "First edition of Nick Grey's debut album: an unexpected, elegant cross between avantrock and classical music, not far from the Tindersticks' poignant laments, David Bowie's "Outside" LP and Current 93's haunted ballads. "Regal Daylight", which features the participation of Nick's father, Romanian tenor Vasile Moldoveanu, is a hypnotic, lyrical and intimate experience."
2002 release ** The 10 year anniversary full-length CD from the trio Stilluppsteypa with all new music, the last album recorded with Heimir Bjorgulfsson who has left the group. The most melodic and rhythmic Stilluppsteypa ever! Contains a 20-page booklet with texts on the history of the band by people such as Andrew McKenzie, Jim Haynes and Frans De Waard.
