Needs Must When the Devil Drives
* Edition of 200 in 4-panel ecopack/digifile * After the critically acclaimed "Pondfire" (Boring Machines, 2015) and "Grey Mornings" (Boring Machines, 2017), Paul Beauchamp has taken a new direction with his third album, "Needs Must When the Devil Drives". With this work, a single track lasting a little over half an hour comprising several movements, Beauchamp has moved away from the use of acoustic instruments as sound sources and has instead followed the mantra of Brian Eno of "the recording s…
Psychic Drones
* Edition of 200 * Psychic Drones is a brand new project by Joel Gilardini and Kazuyuki Kishino (aka KK Null). Born out of the admiration for each other works, during spring 2020 we decided to join forces together and started working on this new project. The composition process was quite straight forward: Joel would record sound sketches, which then wold be torn apart and decomposed by Kazuyuki. It was a creativity flood, exchanging mails and sound files over the ether, from Switzerland to Japan…
Le Noyé
* Edition of 200. Oversize packaging. Poster color cover, close is 21x21 cm * "As Teatro Satanico we conceived these tracks in September 2018, when somebody advised us that Dmitry Vasilyev died by drowning in the Black Sea. Dmitry managed our first Russian gig in Moscow that same year, and we became friends. On the spur of the moment, to honour him composing some tunes looked like a sort of natural unconscious reaction to that bad news. Anyway, we stopped working on them almost immediately and w…
Introspect
* Edition of 200 * Richard B. Lewis is a guitarist who has been active in the Italian punk/rock scene for several years now. Black Dolls, Anarcotici, In my June, are just some of the bands he has been part of from the '90s to the present. In 2016 he decided to launch a solo career, in his personal quest for folk and psychedelic rock sounds. He performed his first album, "City of Souls", on several dates in Italy and abroad. In 2018 the album was followed by a new EP, "Lies". Around the same time…
Great Events Are Coming
* Edition of 200 * Over time, different sound elements have settled, coming to constitute a heterogeneous but at the same time subly fascinating whole. The noise was compounded by infanticidely rhythmic timbres of toy instruments, rustling and crackling of old vintage radios have been joined by snippets of miniaturized voices from the web. The final work is a fil rouge that crosses all these elements joining them in an unconventional sound research hypothesis.
Overgrowth
* Edition of 200 * Overgrowth: We consider technology as a tool at our disposal, while it has become the environment around us and takes only care of efficiency.
So, nowadays, the technical apparatus became more important than men and their needs.
It has no purpose, or a vision for a better mankind future. It only "works".
In Between
2020 release ** Limited edition of 200 copies. "Sound pulses and pale metallic clangs, thin percussive incisions, impalpable high notes broken by thundering and flaying industrial noises. This powerful work by Gianluca Becuzzi breaks down the barrier between the “inside” and the “outside”. As in the third law of correspondence what is above is below, what is below is above, the barriers are broken down, the rhythm deconstructs and annihilates, they are explosions of a Tancredi Parmeggiani with d…
Cautionary Tales
2025 stock ** Limited edition of 200 copies. "Simon Balestrazzi is one of the leading names in the European post-industrial scene. Starting from the unforgettable T.A.C. to the most recent projects, such as Dream Weapon Ritual and A Sphere Of Simple Green, he has built a personal and recognizable sound paradigm over time. In recent years he has also explored more purely electroacoustic dynamics, producing the excellent Redshift and the equally interesting Licheni, a collaboration shared with Nic…

Forse arrivi
**100 copies** Here comes the newest work by Fabio Orsi and his first ever 10" vinyl release, limited to only 100 copies. 25 minutes equally split in two tracks entitled Forse arrivi prima and Forse arrivi dopo that tell a story with sound in a peculiar way which is uniquely Fabio's own.

Between Ambient and Berlin-style electronics, …
Innersurface
After crossing wastelands lost in oblivion (Everything Collapse[d], Aagoo, 2014), and being skeptically moved by listening to pulsations of a weak life (Weak Life, Aagoo, 2015), Cristiano Deison and Andrea Gastaldello (aka Mingle) are arriving at their final destination, Innersuface, the last stop on their journey. They suddenly fall into a hole and are trapped in a slimy pit overflowing with mud and industrial liquids. Everything is dense and oppressive. Their physical movement stops, the chaos…
