Edition of 100. Eighth Tower Records and Interitvs Nvmen unite to resurrect one of the most vital documents from Italy's industrial underground. In the suffocating heat of 1981's experimental underground, Maurizio Bianchi unleashed Mectpyo Bakterium, a work so clinically disturbing and sonically corrosive that it stands among the most unsettling audio documents of the early industrial era. Now, over four decades later, this pivotal cassette transmission receives its first proper CD treatment through a collaborative effort between Eighth Tower Records and Interitvs Nvmen. The cryptic title itself reveals MB's conceptual methodology - a deliberate fusion of mechanical coldness (Mect), purulent infection (-pyo), and microbial life (Bakterium). The result suggests an imagined organism existing at the threshold between machine and disease, a sonic pathogen that infects the listener's consciousness with its relentless, minimal repetitions.

This is not music in any conventional sense, but rather what might be termed "aural autopsy" - a systematic examination of the corrupted interface between human biology and technological decay. Across its duration, Mectpyo Bakterium evokes the sterile atmosphere of laboratory environments where viral mutations breed in petri dishes, where decaying organic matter meets electronic processing, where the boundaries between life and synthetic corruption dissolve entirely. Originally self-published by Bianchi during the height of his early experiments, Mectpyo Bakterium embodies a form of sonic pathology that remains as unsettling today as it was four decades ago. Raw, repetitive, and brutally minimal, the work strips industrial music down to its most essential elements - leaving only the harsh mathematics of decay and the cold precision of mechanical repetition.

This collaboration between Eighth Tower Records and Interitvs Nvmen follows the successful 2024 reissue of S.F.A.G. 31.11.1981, continuing their dedication to preserving the most vital documents from Italy's overlooked industrial underground. Limited to just 100 copies, this CD edition treats Mectpyo Bakterium with the archival care it deserves while maintaining the raw immediacy that made the original cassette such a powerful transmission. For those who understand that the most radical electronic music emerges from the margins - from artists willing to push sound into genuinely uncomfortable territories - Mectpyo Bakterium remains essential listening. It stands as proof that true experimental music doesn't seek to please, but to transform, to infect, to fundamentally alter the listener's relationship with sound itself.
