Morphosis
Satatuhatta is honoured to present the debut album of Primitive Wings, a new project by Jaakko Vanhala. ’Morphosis’ is a highly evocative album, bringing into mind vivid flashes of something primal, perhaps from the prehistoric past. At the same time it’s very raw, but without being utterly harsh. It can be seen as a sum of the artist's previous projects Zoät-Aon, Secret Apex and Vanhala, but it still presents something new.
Listening to the album, you can imagine insects digging their way throu…

Wagamama Na Ofukuro
Tip! ** Limited edition to 299 copies ** In 1987, Nakahara Masaya founded the project Violent Onsen Geisha, which quickly became one of the most well-known and influential names in the Japanese noise music scene, distinctive among others for frequently displaying a bizarre, sarcastic, and mischievous sense of humor. The band's name, which translates to "violent hot springs geisha," is a reference to the traditional Japanese practice of hot spring bathing, as well as a nod to Nakahara's confront…

Verrückt
'Verrückt' was originally a split cassette release with Criminal Party from back in 1987 on the Japanese label Lunatic Propaganda. M.B. better known as Italian power electronics/avant-garde/noise artist Maurizio Bianchi contributed one side of the tape. Original copies are scarce, to say the least, so M.B. himself reissued it as a CDr and now St.An.Da. give it the vinyl treatment. Captivating '80s underground cassette music, bordering on ambient with its bubbling dreamlike soundscapes.
Thank You
Tyler Keen takes an unexpected and exciting turn. Thank You sees him demolish the unrelenting harsh noise he's known for in real time, knocking down walls and cutting wires one by one, rendering it a way more treacherous, perilous and above all open structure than before; imagine a harsh take on the sonic trapdoors of Joe Colley. Helping him out melting things down on two tracks are Kyle Flanagan and Michael Foster.

Midwestern Companion
Tip! *300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Grain Belt was a project formed in 2008 in Minneapolis by Joe Beres (Willful, Small Doses label), Oskar Brummel (Wince, White Centipede Noise) and Sam Stoxen (Baculum, Phage Tapes). The goal was basically to make noise as possible with just a few pieces of scrap metal and distortion pedals. For several years, it was treated like a real band with proper rehearsals, frequent live performances and a small tour in 2010. This CD compiles all p…
From Degeneration To Degeneration
12 cassettes housed in black wooden 12" x 12" box set + Book + Poster Marco Corbelli’s artistic journey began in the early 90’s. Under the pseudonym of Marco Rotula, he started to release a series of fanzines in a very limited edition. The first was “The pleasure agony”, followed by “Sick” and “Murders”.

Cloud Cock OO Grand
**Limited Edition of 299 copies.** Merzbow came roaring onto the Tokyo scene in 1979. To this day, the project remains one of the most prolific and aggressively forward-thinking acts in experimental music. Initially a duo of Masami Akita and Kiyoshi Mizutani, before settling as the moniker of Akita alone, the project took its name from German artist Kurt Schwitters' pre-war architectural assemblage, The Cathedral of Erotic Misery or Merzbau, and quickly set out to challenge entrenched notions of…
For The Happiness Of The World
Tip! *In process of stocking* We are more than proud to pull this trickster out of his shadowy abode and display him to the world. Finally, the album many of us have been waiting for but don't deserve. Cracksteel, M.B., Robert Ashley's Wolf Man, Monde Bruits, British and Italian mischiefs from the 1980's - all filtered through the mind of our menacing court jester. The outcome is as colorful as it is lethal. Wild sonics, sharp corners and contrasts.
Annihilationism
Years in the making split full length of brand new material of ‘harshtronics and exclamation’ from japan’s Masonna and ‘doom electronics’ by america’s Prurient. Arranged in alternating sequence with one track from each artist until burning annihilation.
Hope

The four pieces that comprise the album were created and mixed in 2002 at his Munemihouse studio in Tokyo. Expect Akita's ever-pulverizing frequency assault with chirping avian/alien frequencies drilling into your dome, while feedback and strange loops tear a hole in the sky, opening up a portal to transcendence. Killer artwork and design by Zavoloka.

Comfort Knife
*150 copies limited edition. 2022 stock* We are proud to present the debut album from Anjilla who is one half of Autoerotichrist. A startling and confrontational document of sheer noise textures from the immortal corpse or the corpse you can’t get rid of. The unstable and disturbing currents of riverbed noise clattering across the rocks of silt cliffs bubble up before receding again down the reverse side of the waterfall. Super crushing heavy electronics - Ophelia has risen from the creek and wi…

Entropic trash apotheosis
Tip! "Back in 2009 I had a small exhibition and a collaboration show with Yasutoshi Yoshida (one of my favorite noise artists ever, by the way) at Flying Teapot in Tokyo. I was also supposed to go to his place and record something but I got drunk and lost like an asshole. 13 years later our collaboration mayhem is out." Mastered by Ivan Fu for extra damage. Manuel's (Narcolepsia) words: "Yasutoshi Yoshida and Nicola Vinciguerra have both carved their own corner in underground, being consistent t…
