The Death Of Myself
To celebrate the tenth anniversary of New Forces we are excited to reissue an album from the label's first batch of releases. At the time, Koufar's "The Death of Myself" represented the closing of the project's first chapter. A sonic requiem delivered at maximum volume. The innovative blend of classical samples and abrasive vocal exhortations carved out a unique position in contemporary power-electronics. Content focused on the politics and history of Lebanon eschewed genre tropes for something …

Gak
New Forces is proud to release this CD edition of Evil Moisture's landmark 1997 LP "Gak." Remastered from the original source tape by Grant Richardson, Gak exceeds categorization, description, and even quantification. Across 33 tracks (or is it 53 tracks? What about all that "No Gak"??) - Andy Bolus shows why he is the undisputed master of tape-noise insanity. Chopped, cut, and sewn back together with a blend of genius and madness. This is nothing less than an inspiring piece of experimental sou…

Nass El Ghiwane
Nasse El ghiwane cannot be confined to the people who formed this mythical group. The practice of the ghiwane is an ancestral custom that conferred on people known for their probity and modesty the ability to describe through song and speech the daily life, problems and hindrances of their fellow men. These troubadours, from douars to douars, transmitted their knowledge through poetry, song and theatrical play. Considered revolutionary or a social phenomenon, the mythical band that American dire…

Dayspring
Released in 1983 on a miniscule run of 300-self-financed LP’s, Dennis Taylor’s ‘Dayspring’ remains a lost masterwork of transcendental instrumental guitar. An important missing link between the 60’s folkloric experimentalism of John Fahey and Robbie Basho, and the new age atmospherics mined by William Ackerman and Michael Hedges in the early 80’s. Though Taylor’s guitar playing remains crisply unadorned on these 10 tracks, his technique and his compositions stretch beyond the folk roots of the g…
Bizzarrophytes
Carl Erdmann’s Bizzarrophytes was recorded in Roswell, New Mexico, during the final years of the 70’s. A desert-fried haze of buzzing sitar raga, shimmering guitar soli, and lonesome instrumental psych. Erdmann had been galvanized several years prior by witnessing an intimate performance by Ravi Shankar at Austin’s University of Texas. Erdmann spent the next several years with a sitar in the back of his pickup truck - teaching himself the instrument between stints working on an oil field as a ge…

Instead of revived dead, these zombies are the result of radiation poiso…
