New Arrivals
Compound
The cooperative of composer/improvisers John Wiese (Sissy Spacek) and C. Spencer Yeh (Burning Star Core) presents in a terrific session recorded in August 26, 2007 at The Compound, San Francisco. The work reveals further unexpected developments and strategies of this ongoing partnership. Familiar machineries were primed, but an increasingly alien attitude was fed through and processed into churning and bewildering shapes.
Commiseration/Blood Temperature Pool
Primitive guitar riffin', synth's drone and effects. Raw beauty and energy in it's primal.
Merzphysics
This 10xCD box set composed of previously unreleased recordings from 1993–95, it focuses on pure noise from before the introduction of synthesizers and other electronic instruments.

Sacred Trails
Terrific new release by the cult 'a dear girl called Wendy' italian label: this recordings are a natural progression from the recent "Förruttnelsen" LP on Release The Bats. Like before filthy and decaying reel-to-reel/cassette/tape-echo loops, electronics, junk, field recordings, feedback blasts is mixed with industrial decay and creepy dynamic noise. Minimalistic textures raped by tapeloops, field recordings and junk abuse. Just raw electronics. Organic machine music. No happiness there. 7"…

Weight
Nolan Throop is well known for his solo project Kakerlak and several brilliant collaborations. Parallel to this has always cultivated a passion for industrial and the more obscure noise, in constant progression through its project vergraben before and rumination now. Short tracks, monotonous and percussive, sounding like a degraded version of the SPK. Old drum machines, junk metal loops and radio voices that create industrial marches covered with a thick dose of negativity…

Condensed Death
RESTOCKED amazing 7": a wall of sound, predominantly on some 'obscure' and distorted machines, creating a terror noise music, originating from metal, a conceptual and extreme musical journey.
Fortune
An on going project of prolific artist JOHN WIESE, SISSY SPACEK has taken many forms: intricate collages of the small, quiet, details that trickle through in between “sound”, drums spliced and severed, 18-piece “noise” orchestras, performances that included nothing but the act of shattering glass as source sound to ones that result in broken basses and bleeding throats, etc. On “Fortune,” Wiese has assembled a trio with CHARLIE MUMMA (drums) and CORYDON RONNAU (vocals): crafting twenty-six…

Alienacustica
'Alienacustica' is a superb collection of works by Maurizio and Roberto Opalio (My Cat Is An Alien) as you have never heard before. Forget all MCIAA's noise records... this is a totally different affair: starting from January 2006 they have released 3 unusual, completely acoustic works, all in limited and sold-out editions: a soloist split lp, a private art edition cd-r, and an out-of-print cd. The different approach to these works shows another side of the Opalio brothers' musical universe: all…
