Sprung aus den Wolken have teamed up with Berlin based electro duo Film 2 to record a new album. The result is a mix of Renault Schubert's cool electro pop tunes and Kiddy Citny's and Betty la Gachette's vocals sung in French, English and German. A more than welcome return after a far too long pause for theose German pioneers. "The ten tracks of the CD span from funky electro industrialism to ambient cinematic experimentations (like "Push here" or "Nous irons aux bois") passing though electro 80…

2006 release ** "Reformed Faction is a musical group formed in 2005 by three former members of Zoviet France: Andy Eardley, Mark Spybey and Robin Storey. The band’s original name was The Reformed Faction of Soviet France. They played one concert, in Vienna on 10 November 2005, and released a self-titled album on the Vienna-based Klanggalerie label.

2006 release ** "'The 'elision' in the traditional music is a coercive and systematic dispositive necessary to assimilate two syllabic notes in one only. The 'elisionem', in the avant-gardist branch, is a sound absorbent course used amalgamate various sonorous elements into one. The main purpose is to generate an eclectic and axiomatic damping of the electroacoustic particles in order to proportion the achromatic fulfilment of modern concretism. And the final effect is phonographically disarming…

What could be a better title for our follow-up to Roedelius' "Evermore" than "Neverless"? Two avantgarde heroes have teamed up for a unique collaboration that was started by Hans-Joachim Roedelius in Austria and then processed by Morgan Fisher in Japan. Ambient soundscapes with an Asian touch, meditative, repetitive and very seductive. The masterminds behind Cluster and Mott The Hoople united for the first time. 'How about a collaboration between a former member of Cluster, and the keyboard …

The operating name of New Yorker Al Margolis, If, Bwana were a constant presence in the cassette days. This new record, Bird Brain Bath (Klanggalerie 7") is a wonderfully creaky slab of experimental noise high jinks. One side is entitled "Bird Brain", the other "Bird Bath". Each piece is eight minutes long and if they are played simultaneously they create the record's title tune. Using bird song, blasts from a virtual air rifle, keyboards and dweezly effects of all sorts, Margolis creates two fu…

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

The only early album in this American cult group's discography that hasn't been made available on CD yet. "Satanic Sanction" is one of the darkest, most ritualistic works ever to be recorded by the band, and has for this edition been enlarged by John Zewizz including tracks from the same recording session that didn't make it onto the original vinyl. Featuring the grand voice of Jonathan Briley this is *the* classic …

Originally released in 1981 as an untitled mini album on Zick Zack, "Dub & Die" completes our re-issue programme of the band's earliest works. Recorded at SADW's Cassettencombinat studio in Berlin, the original 8 tracks represent the first release by this German Avantgarde/Industrial group that was once a member of the "Geniale Dilettanten" movement. Again, comparison with early Einstürzende Neubauten is permitted, altho…
