**Edition of 250, wooden box edition** Along with Merzbow and Hijokaidan, Masonna is one of the best (known) Japanese noise projects.

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…

A milestone in Thorofon's back catalogue, 'Final Movement' was released on the band's own UMB label in 2002.

Dead Body Love
It feels like I’ve been writing about Dead Body Love for as long as I have been recording harsh noise. What else can be said? I can’t express enough how much of an influence Italian harsh noise has had on my own personal works, but It also lets me and several peers investigate the techniques and styles of the 1990s harsh noise and the atmosphere that was created expressed from different regions of the world. The more I listen and revisit the material of 90s Japanese harsh noise, the 80s UK power…

Magnetic Domain
Alberto Picchi is the man behind Ambascha, and had this not been mentioned on the information that came with this release, I would not have recognized his name as one of the members of Italy's VipCancro. In that group he plays electronics, which is something that he also does on his solo release. The cover lists 'BK function generator, Korg MS10 filter bank, deck, tapes & pedals'. "His work is inspired by unity of opposites theory applied in a sound context and is focused on digital - analogue, …
