M.U.U.N.H. 31.04.1982 + A Journey Through Sound, Silence and Return
Bringing page and tape into the same charged zone, this bundle pairs A Journey Through Sound, Silence and Return with M.U.U.N.H. 31.04.1982, uniting Maurizio Bianchi’s most ascetic industrial vortex with Raffaele Pezzella’s definitive monograph. Together they form a single, immersive dossier on sound as extremity, withdrawal and unresolved return.
A Journey Through Sound, Silence and Return (Monograph) (Book)
Few figures in experimental music embody rupture as completely as Maurizio Bianchi. A Journey Through Sound, Silence and Return traces his arc from ferocious early industrial extremism to a radical withdrawal and enigmatic comeback, revealing an artistic ethic where creation, renunciation and re-emergence form one continuous, troubling gesture.
M.U.U.N.H. 31.04.1982
Recorded at a pivotal moment in his trajectory, M.U.U.N.H. 31.04.1982 captures Maurizio Bianchi refining sound into a stark environment rather than a composition. Static yet volatile, it strips electronics to bare impulses, anticipating isolationist ambient and dark drone while remaining rooted in the brutal materiality of early industrial experimentation.

Persistent Repetition Of Phrases
*2026 repress* 'Persistent Repetition Of Phrases' success comes from the attention it pays to the function of 'the loop', not only as a narrative ordering system in modern music, but as a means by which the brain itself recalls and interprets information; it's as old as recorded sound itself, but in this context the repetition of small shards of auditory information becomes an elegy to fading memory and the worn-out synapses of old age. The track titles offer signposts through Kirby's labyrinth …
