Angelic gematria
Brand new full length cassette from Clay Ruby's amazing Burial Hex project. Cascades of blackened electronics, distant and buried wailing electronics drenched in throbbing rhythms and grumbling thunderous reverberations, swelling across the two 20 minute compositions, steadily building to utter decay. Limited to 100, pro-dubbed with black and white covers printed on parchment paper
Souls on board
Cassette only - limited edition of 250 copies. Each side is seventeen minutes forty five seconds long.
Omissions
Simple and elegant the music of Jonhatan Borges' project needs concentration, both to be played and listened. It simply concerns repetitive and extatic tape loops that don't need nothing more than the simple repetition. You'll find yourself waiting, with the ear tense to discover a subtle change, a single touch that worth the whole record.Edition of 100
M. on X
'In the world of Brussels hip hop L.E.G. are outsiders, noted for their experimental music influences and use of distorted English-language vocals. Producers Sublyme Diagonal and Roger3000 continuously and independently recycle their collective work in which Citizen Ledge finds his inspiration, recounting his doubts about the future of the world and personal existential abyss. The six unedited tracks on this cassette were recorded between 2005 and 2010.' label info
Passione Farfallina
Awesome tape! A side project by A Spirale band, first release for the label Joy de Vivre, the Aspec(t) snuff/jazz, their second work after the first one by the Belgian label FFHHH, harsh-noise and electroacoustic research.
Soft Power Memento
Embody Problematic Behavior. These are the three words that Co La uses to describe “Soft Power Memento,” his follow-up EP to 2011′s “Daydream Repeater” debut LP on NNA. Something to mull over while immersing yourself in Co La’s vivid and constantly-evolving world of sound. The spectrum of source material is widened and focused, with an emphasis on acoustic instrumentation and jazz palettes, all diced up and run through the New Anything sound system. Concréte percussive molecules are tenderly arr…
untitled, (magnetisms)
First collaborative project between Pierre Gerard (Belgium) and Andy Graydon (Germany/USA). Invited by winds measure to produce a work for cassette tape, the two artists focused on the the particular materiality of this sound technology, once so common and now so rare. Tape's manipulation of a magnetic field evoked other sorts of sensitive magnetic systems, from the intuitive navigation of migratory birds to the organization of the earth's polarity. Starting from this idea of polarity and homewa…

Szampler
Limited to just 500 copies and already sold out at source, this latest edition from the Tapeworm cassette label is likely to be the most feverishly sought after to date. One of experimental electronic music's biggest names, Christian Fennesz has collected his library of samples (dating between 1989 and 1996) made for his old Ensoniq EPS-16 Plus and ASR-10 samplers. It probably goes without saying, but this is an amazing hour or so of music to trawl through. Any long-term fans of Fennesz's music …

Cathode Deafness
Two cathode ray tube televisions , a tape loop and an echo-looper pedal. The intent is to explore through the two televisions the emptied ether due to the shifting of the TV channels from the aerial signal to the digital . The CRT television becomes a deaf machine, an end in itself, a sort of "bachelor machine". The recordings are the result of a series of live improvisations
Solo Voice & Electronics: Memories Of Murder / Always Been A Sto
Massive double album from C. Spencer Yeh of Burning Star Core that mops up two years’ (2007-2008) worth of vocal experiments, running from acoustic throat-splurges and hysterical ticker-tape tirades through the sound of breath caressing microphones and physically impossible computer edited body extensions. The whole deal comes with liner notes from Yeh documenting the various strategies and set-ups, connecting sound poetry and 20th century avant garde techniques with current psych/noise practice…
Sinus
A simple synthetic-based, sine wave-generating freeware program was used as a sound source for creating single pulses and long static tones in several different tonal pitches. No additional sound design or other analog or digital processing was used during the creation of the sounds. The single sound elements were layered and sequenced into different movements of varying shapes and colors, focusing on the pure essence and aesthetics of sound. Each track interweaves longer, stretched, tonal…
LiveGrodor
We had been talking about this tape for a couple years now: a buncha killer livejams by the great Swedish band Den Stora Vilan (which supposedly translates something as ‘The Great Rest’). Long mellow West Coast influenced psych jams (think ‘American Beauty’ era Gratefuld Dead) meets Neil Young with a bit of Trad Gras Och Stenar thrown in. 200

Hiss Vol.1
The works included in 'hiSS [Synesthesia Sampler] vol.1' have been produced using only analogue devices and processing tools - such as no input mixers, analogue synthesizers and custom-built or hacked/reconfigured instruments. Without the use of computers or digital devices, the 4 pieces recall an era from the 1950s-70s, when most of the electronic music makers around the world had limited resources and quite primitive equipment.
From slaves to warriors
Ultra-limited tape release by this italian minimal synth & drum machine duo, another side project by Ottaven/Canedicoda, abstract dread sounds with elements of clinical drone and throbbing frequencies to a more introspective ambient chaos
