God Records

Austrian experimental/contemporary label, run by Slobodan Kajkut 

Rhymes With Water
Much-needed repress. For his premiere recording on God Records, Phill Niblock confirms his minimalistic musical approach and composes two monumental pieces for flutes and additional voices, respectively. Commissioned by Erik Drescher and Natalia Pschenitschnikova, Niblock again delivers an almost stripped, uncompromising one-way sound monolith. Tremendous, straight, and to the point... Personnel: Phill Niblock - composition; Natalia Pschenitschnikova - bass flute, voice; Erik Drescher - glissand…
Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello
Tip! "Feldman's last composition, Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello, was completed in 1987; although its instrumentation largely corresponds to that of Piano and String Quartet, with one instead of two violins, it differs in almost every other respect from the composition written only two years earlier, for here, in contrast to Piano and String Quartet, Feldman makes every effort to integrate the piano into the string section, and the basic formal components of the composition are no longer staves, as…
Sketches Of The Red Districts
** Deluxe LP. Comes in a gatefold sleeve with 16 page LP sized booklet & download card** This new Laibach album, through a new/fresh interpretation, examines the conflict-ridden genesis of the band's formation in the industrial town of Trbovlje in 1980 and questions the band's aesthetic, sonic and ideological roots from the distance of time. The group Laibach was established, in fact, in the year 1980 in Trbovlje, an industrial coal mining town in the centre of Slovenia (YU).  Upon its founding …
Blumenstück
Blumenstück for piano was composed in 1984 as a sound meditation for private use and it celebrates the beauty of the piano sound through tenderness and slowness. All the sounds of the work derived from a word list that lists 168 flower names. All the letters in these names were assigned to notes on the keyboard according to a fixed system. Each sound has to be played softly and as long as possible. After the attack, all sounds should fade away into silence...
Some Moments 1994 - 2022
Kaplan's second release represents a collection of his versatile work through last three decades. Leaving the previous concept of short abstract vignettes, he moves into more "structured" approach, more complex explorations of loop asthetics, cut-up techniques but also pieces for improvised ensembles.
In Another Land Pt. 3
*In process of stocking.* "This is the third and concluding part of the trilogy "In Another Land“. It is not the dialectic synthesis of its antagonistic predecessors, it is just one of three equivalent antipodes that could have been released in any order. Mostly percussive and constantly transforming structures are weaving their net through both sides of this album. Processes of convergence follow moments of decay, high event density alternates with moments of quiet, aimless meandering. A furthe…
Elements
*In process of stocking.* Since my piece Terrible Fake (Piano, Drums, 2013) and especially Darkroom (Clarinet, Vibraphone, Sampler, 2017), I've been trying to to integrate some grooves into classical contemporary idiom. Since those experiments were mostly for smaller setups, this time I wanted to transfer it into the larger one in order to get more possibilities to work with different textures and coloring within harmonic structures of clusters and chromatic movements of melodies. Constant trans…
Lemon Technique
Michael Eisl (Eichamt) had a long eclectic journey between various projects for theater, improvisation, sound art and sound installations, all the way to his first release on God Records. His first release presents him in his full abstract electronics mood, in his own words: "Between analog experiments and obsessive-compulsive digital reworking there is constant need for recalibration." This is also the first Tape release on vinyl-only label, God Records from Graz, Austria and also the point whe…
Terror Iridescence
“Terror Iridescence” is the 4th full length release by the latter-day, New York City based reincarnation of the seminal Punk Jazz/No Wave/Brutal Prog unit The Flying Luttenbachers, and the 17th album since 1992. After all of this, longtime fans tend to expect notable creative twists to be pulled by the band with each release, and this one will not disappoint. This time around, our heroes have issued forth a boldly abstract haunted-house salvo of dizzying surrealism, loaded with exceptionally biz…
String Quartet II
* 2021 Stock ** During the decades following the Second World War, all eyes shifted toward New York, a city which, at that moment, played host to some of brightest creative minds of the century. Innovations were abound. Visual artists, writers, thinkers, musicians, and composers continuously pushed into previously unthinking ground. While the United States had been previously known to give birth to a wild and distinct breed of composer, from Charles Ives to Nancarrow, Harry Partch, Cowell, and b…
Cheap Opera #1 "Répétitions" DW30 "Loops for Klaus Schulze"
In 2015 Bernhard Lang was approached by Sebastian Berweck, to compose a piece for his Berlin-based Synthesizer-trio Lange // Berweck // Lorenz.Considering his musical background and his roots, Lang saw this offer as double opportunity, one of them being a chance to compose an ultimate tribute to one of his musical heroes, electronic pioneer, Klaus Schulze. On the other side, Cheap Opera #1 „répétitions“ turned out as Lang's most political piece to day: his mercilles comment on fake patriotism...…
Negative Infinity
"Negative Infinity" is a sort of return-to-form in a regard, featuring 6 tightly scripted doses of what they call "Brutal Prog" - the tag Weasel coined in the early 2000s to describe an elite breed of intense, complex bands who emphasised harshness and intensity over the typical prog-rock flutes and fairies positivity. This is prog for the Aocalypse, not your uncle.
We Forge The Future. Live At Reina Sofía
We Forge The Future is a document of a Laibach show, held in Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid, on November 26th, 2017. For this museum occasion, Laibach re-enacted the historic performance that was initially staged on April 23rd, 1983, as part of the XII Music Biennale Zagreb in Croatia – then still a part of Yugoslavian federation. The performance caused furious public/media campaign against the group, whose result was a formal ban on Laibach in Slovenia and Yugoslavia, that lasted until 1987.  Musica…
Orchesterstücke
Peter Ablinger is one of home composers of GOD Records. His cult releases GODrec "Regenstücke 1 and 2" and "Voices and Piano" (GOD 08, 18 and 34 respectively) are part of every serious record collection around the globe.  With "Orchesterstücke" Ablinger finally delivers some of his remarkable orcestra pieces in last ten years.  Release contain three Ablinger's orchestra pieces, "Quartz", "Wachstum, Massenmord" and highly controversial piece "4 Weiss", for orchestra and white noise - the piece th…
Symposium
Lésions Graves is an experimental extreme-metal trio on a journey towards minimal music. Racing drum patterns and humming melodic shreds  interweave with disharmonic sound spheres and complex rhythmic and melodic phase shifts. Fast, loud, aggressive, repetitive, irritating...
Ouate
A little bit of Baroque, a little bit of Zwölftonmusik, a little bit of electronica, that's Robert Lepenik
Shattered Dimension
The Flying Luttenbachers’ “Shattered Dimension” is the first offering by the seminal cult band since 2007. The current New York City based version of the group on this recording features stalwart leader and primary composer Weasel Walter on drums, saxophonist Matt Nelson (GRID, Elder Ones), bass guitarist Tim Dahl (Child Abuse, Lydia Lunch) and guitarist Brandon Seabrook.
Imminent Death
The Flying Luttenbachers’ “Imminent Death” is the second release by the seminal cult band since its reincarnation in 2017. “Imminent Death” is very different in many ways from the previous Luttenbachers releases, but then again, you could consistenly say that about most of them. The group has always followed the direction set by its leader Weasel Walter, and reflects his desire to create music of a determinately less common quantity in any given era. The Flying Luttenbachers have always been sta…
Linea Mundi
Klaus Lang's involvement with God Records began with already cult two-part release of his stunning organ works. Famous for his heavy droning sound, new Lang's pieces are highly successful ensemble pieces linea mundi. and weiße farben., both premiered at the festival Wien Modern. Heavy textures, disturbing counterparts, slow progressions, threatening dynamics... According to Marshal McLuhan, the nature of the medium used to transmit a message is of greater importance than the message’s meaning or…
For Bunita Marcus
2019 Repress. In the 1980's, Morton Feldman composed two large-sized pieces for his favourite instrument, the piano. Both pieces, Triadic Memories (1981) and For Bunita Marcus (1985), clock in at about 90 minutes. Both compositions are excellent examples of the group of works that they belong to: Triadic Memories demonstrates the complexity and tonal opulence of Feldman’s pattern compositions from 1977 through 1983, whereas For Bunita Marcus shows the stripped-down, almost dismissive structures …
