Source Of Sin
*70 copies limited edition* Source of Sin arises when the Devil blows under her petticoat. The dirty old man stalks her, coming at her compulsively from afar, the scraping of iron stirring the receptors of the rusty constructions, whose increasing shrieks come from the other side of the cold hangar. This is where they will be wed, in the soot and grime of the filthy buildings, dampness of the dungeons, and the sticky religious ecstasy that unravels the thin wire of lust and imminent spiritual de…
Podrido Amanecer de Los Impíos
*50 copies limited edition* Iberian Harsh Noise annihilation! Loud and corrosive tracks from both spanish projects: Signatus vomits desolate no-input sounds mixed with bones and metal manipulation, enacting as the dagger of Iberian wrath, while Soma’s ravaged screams and crackling high pitched frequencies enact as the the agony of the hundred legions that bled in Iberian soil. Culminating in a storm of aggression and destruction, both acts show perfectly how Harsh Noise nowadays should sound lik…

Memory Default
Coming down the mountain to the sea… A meeting of enigmatic minds, STROM|MORTS and venoztks, at The Summerhouse on the coast of southern England gave rise to an alliance – "beards vs bald"; venoztks using unprocessed short wave channelled through modular synth, guitar pedals and other unknown physical and non-physical devices which were lost in the maelstrom. The result is just downright peculiar. But with charm; "Hotel Echo" echoes and channels earlier insane attempts to dance to farmersmanual.…
Bottling House
When the quartet of Luke Martin, Gabriel Salomon, Klaus Janek and Andy Graydon gathered to record an afternoon of sessions in Andy's studio, it was both the result of years of cultivation and an afterthought. Klaus and Andy had been long-time, and now long-distance, collaborators since their shared years in Berlin. That city was also where Andy was introduced to Gabriel at one of his solo performances by their mutual friend, the painter Paul McDevitt. Years passed, and cities. After meeting and …
För Alltid
*80 copies limited edition* 'För alltid' is an album about time. The fuzzy & shapeless memories floating without coherence. Shortwave radio recordings picking up unbroken codes from the past. Hopeful voices whispering about a possible future from a hopeless now.
Пустоши
*50 hand-numbered copies* On the summer solstice of 2023, NEN, with joy and sorrow, presents a new recording by tremorkikimor, "a non-human fem ensemble from the nearest swamp", now scattered by Russian war against Ukraine across different countries. Word to the authoresses: ‘Russian expression “В лихую годину” (‘In a bad times’) is right about the chronotope of our album. A field recording with crows and a humming port on Kanonersky Island, essential for this recording, was made amidst the pand…
Can Stones Evade Taxes?
*50 hand-numbered copies* The voice from the box said, "What if the ultimate border situation between garbage and art is actually laughter? (...) The literal yoga of excrement (排泄物的瑜伽), a coprolitic essay on how we, as listeners, encounter 'objects of fear,' process them, and transform them into sound. It's 石头 in our ears."I said, "But 'for our purposes,' it seems to me that 'just a lonely voice' is needed."Onufr Gaptev said, "For those who take a vow of silence, any word is shit compared to the…

Signal
“Signal" is the new album by renowned electronic music artist Brendon Moeller. Known for his innovative fusion of ambient sounds, Moeller once again pushes the boundaries of the genre with swirling, organic forms and immersive textures grounded in the dark, moody tones of deep techno and dub. What results are the sounds of melodic, fluttering synths set to low, steady beats, all of which seem to playfully dance through some kind of cosmic aural nebula. Brendon grew up in Johannesburg, South Afri…

Shelved Dreams (for a new Nubia)
100 copies limited edition Cortizona affiliate Mich L. debuts on Dauw with a new album titled Shelved Dreams (for a new Nubia). The Brussels based musician returns with 3 tracks where he invites his listeners to turn hearing into listening. Using only analog synths and equipment, Mich L. strokes the air of minimalism in a tensive hide and seek of frequencies. The gradual build up and disappearance of the latter form the basis of an introspective experience that challenges to accept a certain deg…

Lemon Squeezy
Intimate songwriting fades into sound deconstruction. The most gentle and songish JDV release so far....
Hardstone carvings
*Dubbed on reused ferro tapes* Reveries; an apartment and it's lonesome inhabitant. Field recordings and reamps through lousy computer speakers. The livelyhood and sounds of tape running around different objects, chatting radios and the fiddeling of a diverse array of small talkative machines. All recordings were made within the same weekend, being alone in my apartment. Edited, cut apart and put back together.
Clouded Mind
*Dubbed on TDK Chrome Tapes - very good quality!* Two long-form pieces evolving around experimental sampling and noticeably draws inspiration from the sharp digital sounds of the 2000s. Notably, these sounds doesn't lack the inorganicness and sterility that often are a synonym with the early digital era. From my perspective these two pieces reflect glimpses of wild articulative freedom from a otherwise verysimplistic language.
