Tip! ** Edition of 100, glass-mastered CD, includes poster ** A new face from the furthest North-East of Italy, Trieste: the city of the "bora", a powerful and relentless wind that for many of its inhabitants represents a state of mind, more than a simple typical atmospheric event. Petroglifi Solubili is the project by Loris Zecchin (Solar Ipse fanzine), born in 2021 with a simple sampler (the legendary Roland SP-404) and gradually expanded with an equipment that includes a number of synths, gui…

Aha
Since more than 40 years, Anne Gillis has discreetly unfolded her proper singular universe without any compromise. She playfully moves with determined restrictions, excavating contrasting forces; sensual and visceral, mechanical and organical, black and white, … She extends this personal expression in her visuals using self-portrait photos, handwritten text and her theatrical performances are equally aligned. Her music can be considered as musique concrète using the tape machine as compositional…
Hardcore Vol. 2
2023 Repress. Devo's Hardcore documents the group's beginning as pre-punk outcasts in the fertile Akron, Ohio underground rock scene. Spawned at the nearby college of Kent State, site of the infamous May 4 Massacre, Devo formed as a conceptual art project armed with a radical philosophy of de-evolution. Brothers Mothersbaugh (Mark, Bob, and Jim) and Brothers Casale (Jerry and Bob) along with drummer Alan Myers soon whipped-up an otherworldly brand of "devolved blues" that could hold its own alon…

Bangalore
Bangalore marks MKM’s fifth release for Mikroton. Recorded in concert on February 2, 2019 in Bangalore during a tour of India, this LP documents the group’s plunge in the ebb and flow of India’s intense energy. In visiting India the group found a social space which mirrored their own approach to music. Or in the words of David Tudor:
Resonance is the condition whereby a tiny input autonomously cascades into a much larger output. It occurs when a small vibration interacts with the internal struct…

Eight electronic pieces
**2020 stock** Chance combinations, accidental themes, chaos in general—these are the musical modes that Tod Dockstader uses in composing electronic pieces. Blending oscillating electronic sounds with natural sounds is like being "confronted with a potential orchestra of thousands of instruments," he says, and the task becomes one of "improvising."
This CD is a custom made copy from Smithsonian Folkways collection. Every effort has been made to preserve its historical and aural integrity. The or…

Legacy Map
** Edition of 150 copies ** Sprung from the eclectic new wave of Italian noise and industrial music, Lettera 22 is a duo consisting of Matteo Castro and Riccardo Mazza, based in Vittorio Veneto. Their noise is dynamic and creative, balancing in the field between contemporary art music and harsh noise brutality: gritty, textured concrete sounds and field recordings are recorded and manipulated with analogue tape, drenched in tape hiss and finally crushed by a wall of distorted electronics and fe…
Peachy
Alga Marghen presents a reissue of Intersystems' Peachy (1967). The sound work of Intersystems cannibalized stray bits of McLuhanism, psychedelia, Cagean experimentalism, and even the modernist gestural strains of nascent electronic music, yet it was all couched within a very particular DIY ethos. Peachy pushes the meticulousness of Number One Intersystems (NMN 093-1LP) even further and, as such, represents a more balanced amalgam of Intersystems' various disparate stylistic and emotional elemen…
Fires Frame the Silhouette
Cremation Lily is the project of UK-based Z. Zsigo. For the past five years, Zsigo has been consistently working under most people's radars with his distinctly personal take on power electronics, developing a modest cult following and a respectable catalog of releases through his Strange Rules label. In 2012 the project was brought to the attention of Steve Underwood from Harbinger Sound who subsequently released the Fertility Servant 7" and the project began to gather a more visible live presen…
Eth
Summer seems to be popping it's fat shiny head in through my windows, even at night it's gently warm & balmy. I feel in no mood for indie guitars, I want ambient soundscapes and cleansing washes of sound. Even dark, shuddering sound like Ourson (Mr. Luke Hazard) produces on his CD 'Eth'. I like listening to this at night as there's no beats to piss off the neighbors, just morphing waves of processed noise caressing my flappy lugs like an angry digital breeze. There's some proper phasing fun happ…
