Loose Connection
*Limited edition of 100 copies. Includes 2 postcards.* Work from this French guitarist has been reviewed before, primarily his work with Sun Stabbed and the, quite frankly brilliant named La Morte Young, but also a solo release (Vital Weekly 1095). The previous one was primarily electronic, but he solely uses an electric guitar for this new one. "This LP present tracks recorded at home for the neighbourhood pleasure during lockdown", and unfortunately, no reactions from the said neighbourhood we…
Healing Music
*Limited edition of 100 copies.* "Disclaimer: Joachim Nordwall is one of those artists whose work I've been following for a long time, from the spastic no wave of Kid Kommando to the sprawling drone rituals of Skull Defekts, from the industrialized meditations of Saturn & The Sun, his collaboration records with the likes of Mats Gustaffson or Mika Vainio, to his multifaceted solo outputs, under his own name or the Idealist moniker... well you might get the point: I am a fanboy. So I write from a…

Originally released in 1992, Der Abend Der Schwarzen Folklore is the third Massaker album, originally released by Rough Trade Germany. According to Caspar Brötzmann, the title track and Bass Totem are the band’s most accomplished songs.

2000-2003, Tapes 1992-1994 in Bundle
Special discounted bundle. Aube was the solo project of Akifumi Nakajima (1959 – 2013), begun in 1991. Taking a minimalist approach for his recordings, Nakajima used simple source sounds which were fed into his system, then heavily processed into a vast dimensional landscape of sonic textures. Source sounds ranged from the organic sounds of gurgling water, to isolating elements of technology, such as the curious hum of luminous lamps. The result is a mixture of controlled manipulation and beaut…
Unaffected Mixes ±
A collection of unreleased mixes by R.N.A. Organism, a unit representing the postpunk era in Japan that is gaining momentum for reevaluation. The unit's only LP, "R.N.A.O Meets P.O.P.O" (Vanity 0006, 1980), featured supercheap alternative-dub with various gadgets against a backdrop of urban aphorism and electrominimalism. Their sound has been described as "Japan's original mutant pop" mainly overseas, and their reissue of Vanity's work has been a hot topic.
In 2020, they released "Unaffected Mix…

YÉTÈKPÃNRA
*In process of stocking.* There are nights carved like the journey of the dead out of the livings' daylight. Mert Seger brings to our senses a two steps ritual for this debut on Kump. « Yétèkpãnra », freely inspired by the funeral rites of the Batãmmariba of Togo and Benin depicted by Dominique Sewane, runs along with no clear beginning nor any end, a sound sketch where the shapeless rustle from the depths of the night meets a procession of artefacts. In this space where the dead finds his way, …

Black Vomit
'It was the unexpected event of the 2005 FIMAV festival: avant jazz legend Anthony Braxton joining noisy bad boys Wolf Eyes on-stage. But it did not come completely out of left field. A few months earlier at another festival, the 60-year-old saxophonist had attended a performance by the Michigan noise trio and was transformed, buying a copy of everything the band had to sell that night. The man had been hit in the face by noise music. At the 22nd FIMAV, Braxton was scheduled to play a duo concer…
Modern Dance Gold, Vol. 1
From the UK based imprint, The state51 Conspiracy, comes, “Modern Dance Gold, Vol. 1”, the debut LP by Better Corners, a brand-new project from Valentina Magaletti, Sarah Register, and Matthew Simms. Harnessing a vast range of sound sources, it's a visionary expanse of abstract textures and tonalities that steadily defies any association with genre - incorporating elements of industrial music, post-punk, dance music, noise, and new age into its incredibly ambitious two sides.
