A devastating masterpiece. 3 new tracks recorded, composed and mixed in Berlin, Rome and Tokyo by Cris X/Cristiano Luciani in collaboration with underground japanese musicians, Keiko Higuchi (vocals, piano, lyrics) and Sachiko (vocals, electronics): a dark and visi…
KRMN
Working with the same source material, sound artists Maurizio Bianchi & Francisco Lopez create individual works produced from the impartial de-oxidation of sonorous carbon-containing modular compounds. "'KRMN-FL' and 'KRMN-MB' were both created with the same original source materials, jointly created by Maurizio Bianchi and Francisco Lopez.""Produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds, carbon monoxide is a highly toxic gas and has no odor or color. It is the most common ty…
Technology-X
Mirror Tapes present a stunning issue of unreleased, archival work from notorious electronic noise pioneer, Maurizio Bianchi. 'Technology-X' was salvaged from tapes dating to 1981 and carefully restored and remastered for cassette by Edward Sol of Quasi Pop records, faithfully representing MB's crushing dynamics and incredibly visceral textures.
OIRT EMO-DNE
Previously unreleased private cassette from February 1981 containing sound sketches to shape the future 'Endometrio'. While the 'EMO-DNE' track bears some basic resemblances with Endometrio's 'Primo Ciclo', the 'OIRT' track sounds significantly different in the labyrinth of MB's creative processes. The flaws and distresses of the original tape give intriguing textures and details to the recordings which stand well on their own beyond being 'Endometrio' in embryonic form, and towards much …
Symphony For A Genocide
Near-exact reproduction of the original Sterile Records release, including hand-stamped labels and inserts just like the 1981 issue. M.B., aka Maurizio Bianchi, has enjoyed a deserved renaissance in recent times as a new generation discovers his charred brand of industrial noise, particularly the artist's formative early 80's period before he disappeared in pursuit of religion. In the ensuing years, many of these early records became prized collector objects, garnering hundreds of dollars…
Attache à ton esprit un éternel bourreau
"no dynamics, no change, no development, no ideas" Nothing is progress. Everything repeats itself endlessly and nothing stands out as important. Nothing more should be undertaken. We will never arrive at the final destination . The truth is over , comes the loneliness . Two cohesive tracks of total static harsh noise, crusting, crushing, crackling of 14 minutes each by the master of the HNW Vomir . No graphics , text only in a deluxe silver silkscreen on black cardboard sleeve. Edition of 99 cop…
Gills cut into woman
"Terrifying monster of the ages raging with pent-up passions! ...with every man his mortal enemy ...and a woman's beauty his prey! Could only her beauty tame its savage fury?""...forbidden depths!" Creature libertinage; voyeur of the women's legs enveloped in dark waters. The hosiery has been cast aside in exchange for a one-piece to enter the watery depths, setting the stage for obsessive creature tendencies targeted toward the shapes of Kay Lawrence, Helen Dobson, and Marcia Barton. Sam McKi…
Self Title
There are no words to say how amazing the Heinz Hopf's debut album is. They are a harsh noise duo consisting of Matthias Andersson and Dan Johansson. The first is the mind behind the label Release the bats, and the second is the man behind the moniker Sewer Election. The result is 32 minutes of pure, brutal and uncompromising harsh noise. Comparisons with Incapacitants is too easy, their love of the Japanese noise is too evident. Comparisons that do not lead to the cloning of a sound. Thei…
Vibrant New Age
Sadly (for us left coasters), in November Ms Leyna Noel aka Psychic Reality decamped from SF to NYC, but before packing up her every worldly possession and road-tripping trans-America she eked out a sliver of precious time to hole up in the studio with Phil Manley (Trans Am, Jonas Reinhardt, etc) and record her long-awaited debut full-length on thick 2 inch tape. Vibrant New Age is the result. The name says it all. But Noel’s New Age is not the 80’s redux fad of healing crystals, pastel fades, d…
True Form
Lettera22 is a new project from Riccardo Mazza and Matteo Castro (of WW and Nico Vascellari fame). Influenced by the contest of their everyday living in a place compressed between countries, mountains and factories, their sight points directly to men, machines, fields.Tape loops, field recordings and feedbacks melted in a unique form by violent, dinamic and noisy structures. Blind fury moments in contrast with cavernous concrete parts give us the sound of desolation landings. What was concrete b…

Negative Tongue
Lettera 22 is a new project from Riccardo Mazza and Matteo Castro wich borns in the deep north east of Italy. Influenced by the contest of their everyday living in a place compressed between countries, mountains and factories, their sight points directly to men, machines, fields. Really dinamic structures composed by tape loops, field recordings and feedbacks are destroyed by a violent muscular manipulation. What was concrete becomes distant and too complex to be concrete anymore ,any sin…

Heart Ache & Dethroned
Deluxe gatefold 2LP version. Some of Broadrick's most outstanding work in the past decade. "Sixty-eight minutes of unreleased new/early Jesu on two LPs, including the band's lost 2004 EP Dethroned. There are few artists operating at the fringes of popular music today whose sound has not been in some way or another informed or shaped by the works of Justin K. Broadrick."
