*Clear lathe cut square 7" limited to 33 copies. In process of stocking* 'The machines are talking to each other, but they don’t know we’re listening. Submerged synthetic spittle gargles wires into intricate shapes, spreading a message of destruction into every sentient molecule. Be still and draw something pretty.' - Foxy Digitalis

Vinyl reissue celebrating the 40th anniversary of Esplendor Geométrico´s first LP: El Acero Del Partido / Héroe Del Trabajo, originally released in 1982. Considered a masterpiece of industrial music from the eighties, it's the record where they started to define their unique style. Already devoid of aggressive lyrics and even titles for their tracks, the sound begins to acquire a personality of its own, with an astounding austerity. Repetitive litanies infected by impossible machine sounds, nois…

**2022 stock. 200 copies limited edition** The album 'untitled (2019)' by Francisco López was entirely created in 2019 and composed of a variety of very different pieces. Even though the pieces have very different origins, they all come together in a fascinating sonic trip, with the supreme quality and attention to detail you've come to expect of Francisco López.

Created with original recordings from power plants along the Bidasoa river in the Basque Country, Erkizia and López have built vivid, straighforward and transformed sound environments from a myriad hums, rattles, crackles, and drones from the wide variety of machinery and industrial electrical facilities inside the power plants. A macro and microscopic journey int…

** Edition of 200 ** Ferns Recordings proudly presents Animast by Francisco López. Few albums would be as fitted for vinyl release as this one. Drawing on both analog-material and digital-immaterial undisclosed sources, “Animast” plays with the sonic textures and responses most suited for the characteristics of this particular analog medium: noisy crispness, compositional ‘loopiness’, contrasting sharp-and-thick textures and cycling dynamics. A must for experimental heads and adventurous DJs ali…

A new weird, pseudo-music compilation curated by avant-garde experimental composer and audio artist Francisco López. As far as creation itself is concerned, big cities do not manifest anymore as the catalytic cultural centers they used to be. Their iconic status as hip locations seems more symbolic than real. The combined mighty forces of neocapitalist gentrification and telecommunication / information decentralization might have generated a substantially different landscape of geographical cult…

Esplendor Geométrico was a pioneer in the noise world and this record is one of his most edgy and advanced works of all. It is noisy, gauzy, confrontational and frankly weird for the way it mangles synths, layers up distortion and contorts vocals into dark apparitions and paranoid sound worlds. This is the first and only legitimate reissue of Necrosis en la Poya which was initially only pressed in very small quantities after an enigmatic fan decided to help out and stump up the funds. The artwor…

Arispejal astisaró was firstly published in 1993 by the label Línea Alternativa in an edition of 500 copies. This new reissue is remastered from…
