"Formed by Florentine guitarist Franco Falsini (formerly of Noi Tre) and American drummer Keith Edwards, Sensations' Fix was one of the most exciting acts to come out of the Italian music scene of the 1970s. Beginning in 1974, from their outpost in the Florentine countryside, Falsini and Edwards (along with bassist Ri…

Rasputin 3000
This one-time limited edition of 750 copies comes from Austria's Comfortzone label and catches Mika Vainio in swaggering backroom dancefloor mode again for a 2nd, Jukebox-styled 7". A-side is a corrosive, killer slice of Industro-Bashment called 'Rasputin 3000', all skeletal rhythmic swagger and elemental distortion. B-side features an even more stripped down and haunted number called 'Devil Arrives To Finspång'. Nobody does this thing quite like Vainio - miss out at your peril!
Rose Pillar
180 Page Hardcover Book with 11" Record, featuring Kevin Drumm. What separates Dominick Fernows Prurient project from the rest of the contemporary underground cannon is its unyielding personal subject matter. From the inception of Prurient the concept has always utilized intimate details, photographs, letters and other ephemera culled from places where most artists would choose to obscure. Prurient draws these details into focus more than ever on Rose Pillar, a 180-page hardbound book of Fernows…

Stand up comedy
Alessandro Bosetti‘s music for the last decade has documented the de- and re-contextualization of the human voice through a variety of means. Il Fiore Della Bocca achieved this through the natural alterations of ‘normal’ speech exhibited by the voices of individuals with speech impediments, such as stuttering and phonetic disorders. Africanfeedback did so through vocal mimicry of contemporary music and through a simple ignorance of the languages his subjects were speaking (often Dogon). T…

The Terrifying Realisation We Might Be Wrong
Second 7" release for Dirty Knobby takes us on another diversion through a hellish landscape peppered with brittle discordance and fuzzed out string burn, courtesy of an old cheaply produced Indian 'banjo', or bulbul tarang, which had the wooden keyboard removed, a contact mic attached and then thwacked repeatedly with a screwdriver head. The track evolves from this nightmarish scenario into something utterly transfixing, again created using a contact mic, rubbing on a table top and fed through …
Last Days vol. II
september 2009 release ; excellent (if painfully brief ; could really use an lp-length recording of this stuff !!!) single of ghostly guitar passages (recorded in harlem, usa, no less) from italian artist stefano pilia ...two mazzacane-connors-esque figures, drenched in amp-buzz (incidentally, the only way we could solve the ages-old 33/45 dilemma was to run the 60-cycle ground-hum through a frequency counter) ; impeccably channeled & gorgeously presented ... highly recommended !!!
