Brute Nature versus Wild Magic
Inca Ore is the solo vehicle of someone who simply goes by the name Eva. "Brute Nature vs. Wild Magic" is her debut recording and is jaw-dropping. Eva hails from Northern California in the land of the cypress. These 22 minutes are pure bliss. Lying somewhere between Finnish princess Kuupuu and the snow queen herself, Fursaxa, Inca Ore's soft compositions are like an anvil hidden inside a pillow. On the surface, it seems like nothing is wrong and there's a semblance of order. But the deeper you d…
Duke of York
Hox is Edvard Graham Lewis (Wire/Dome/He Said/He Said Omala/Ocsid) and Andreas Karperyd (Omala/He Said Omala/Woodwork). Duke of York is their second release following 1999's highly acclaimed it-ness. Duke of York is a bittersweet contemporary electronic pop record that could only exist as a result of the unison of these particular peculiar souls. At once tender, skewered, sophisticated, and unsettling, Duke of York is a both a journey through the collective minds of Lewis and Karperyd and …

Program Notes
Max Neuhaus’ Program Notes records the aphoristic statements of the innovative sound artist as he redefined the boundaries of his new audio practice. Seeking to eschew the “small area music [had] been concentrating on for the past several hundred years,” Neuhaus consciously relocated his work in the late ‘60s to what he deemed “the realm of space” as opposed to that of time—choosing to present his music in public and communal settings, decidedly outside of the “proscenium situation.” This…
A Lion's Baptism
2013 Release. Even if you pride yourself on your boundless appetite for weird music, Innercity’s A Lion’s Baptism will ruffle the cilia in your ears in novel ways. On his debut for Further Records, Innercity (hyper-prolific Antwerp Belgium producer Hans Dens) shoves typical notions of rhythms into the abyss and conjures a murky mystique. Endlessly fascinating bafflement ensues. A Lion’s Baptism starts with deceptive conventionality, as “the essence of the earth as arch as arc” fades in wi…
Split
The Hunter Gracchus have released an ever growing catalogue of super well received releases and collaborated with Part Wild Horses Mane On Both Sides and Chora as Le Drapeau Noir, as well as performing in Vampire Blues, Harappian Night Recordings and Blue Yodel. Their side is an amazing live recording from La Planta, Argentina entitled 'Mujeres De La Boca', and if you've ever been to their Furniture Makers practice space, it sounds like Hunter Gracchus somehow managed to transport its entire co…
Schulevy Maker
Holotype Editions was founded as a means of bringing out music by some of the most unique and peculiar artists of the last decades. What could be more fitting for the imprint’s seventh release, than the duo of cult artist Ghédalia Tazartès and multi-instrumentalist, composer and singer Maya Dunietz. Recorded live at Cafe Oto, in December 2013, Schulevy Maker documents the duo’s first live appearance. An amalgam of bizarre samples, concrete sounds, live piano and bells, juxtaposed with the otherw…
Fuck wit It High: A Mystical Gangsta's Reflection Vol. 1
"In a world with nothing to love, you can't love anything that's of this world. You need something holy. Better yet, you need something holy and spiritual. EVEN better would be something holy and spiritual that fights for righteousness instead of destruction. Well, your fuckin' troubles are over, dude -- the Holy Spiritual Gangsta Frank Hurricane is back! There are parts of this new Frank Hurricane record that sound like perhaps he actually built a shirt from one of those 'rap music' Casio…
Ida Con Snock
An album of new Hurley songs and older, classic compositions from the great American folk outsider, all arranged and performed beautifully at Levon Helm's Woodstock studio. Ida Con Snock has to rank as one of Michael Hurley's most slick sounding enterprises, but it's also a completely natural and untampered with vision of his songs, and there's a tremendous purity of intent resounding throughout pieces like the wonderful and poignant 'Wildegeeses' and the Appalachian fiddle-adorned 'Hog Of The F…
My Machines
‘My machines’ is inverz’s (Savvas Metaxas), fourth release to date. The LP’s six tracks were recorded between autumn and winter of 2010. The album was mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi in Milan and cut by Rashad Becker at Dubplates and Mastering in Berlin. In ‘My machines’ inverz focuses on the collection, process and reproduction of old vinyl records wich are then combined with sound samples from musical and non-musical sources, resulting to a dark-ambient soundscape.
Hyper
** restocked** Le Révélateur – multimedia duo of visual artist Sabrina Ratté and composer Roger Tellier-Craig – return with Hyper, a bold stylistic leap that represents their most experimental and conceptually rich work to date. Having already begun to move away from their trademark analog synth panoramas, Hyper goes even further in expanding the digital abstractions that first bubbled to the surface on 2014’s Extreme Events. Gone are the hypnotic arabesques and Berlin School melodicism that cha…
Outside The Great Drought
NY-based multi-instrumentalist Colby Nathan delivers a debut that contains a jumpy and highly neurotic form of outsiderpop combining bebopdrenched rants and surrealistic torchsongs with lush arrangements that constantly test the limits of self-control and good reason. “Outside, The Great Drought” offers baroque exuberance and teenage angst through sixties inspired craftsmanship that keeps spiraling out of this worldly realm. Think Jonathan Richman, Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks.
In the Forest
Edition of 300. Second Editions presents In The Forest by Karl Fousek. Serving as a score for David Hartt's film of the same name about the Habitat Puerto Rico project by Moshe Safdie, In The Forest finds Fousek at his most focused and controlled. These five pieces/chapters move with precision and intent. With subtlety and curiosity. Shrouded in ambiguity. And while Fousek works much more restrained here than on previous releases, by paying attention to every detail, he creates an intriguing wor…
Ik, Steven H
This 12" is by a rapper called Steven H from Kaster, Belgium, who sings in Kaster dialect, a dialect incomprehensible by anyone not living in Kaster.
Stanzas or The Law of the Good Neighbour
Henry Andersen is a Brussels-based visual artist and composer. Trained as a minimal and reductionist composer under the wings of Peter Ablinger, he moved from music into visual art, writing and sound performances. His debut vinyl is a recording of the longrunning piece ‘Stanzas’ or ‘the Law of the Good Neighbour’. On each side, a pair of his friends reads simultaneously from a list of words. The list is an unfinished result of a word game Andersen has been playing for several years. Stanzas… see…
Choosing Your Own Brand Of Evil
BloodLust! is very pleased to announce the release of the new album by Iugula-Thor, from Milan, Italy. Iugula-Thor, the nom de guerre of Andrea Chiaravalli, burst onto the post-industrial music scene in the early 1990s, with two striking releases on Minus Habens Records. First, the cryptic The Wheel Of The Process 12-inch single and then the commanding debut album, Forced Flesh. Iugula-Thor has morphed and mutated through styles including dark atmospheric electronics, ritualistic industrial, pur…
Last Whole Earth
RESTOCKED Asheville, North Carolina resident Ross Gentry performs and records under the guise of Villages. With dense layers and glacial droning, he creates engaging narrative soundscapes that evoke the shifting fragility of the early ambient movement as well as the elegance of symphonic composition. The Last Whole Earth is engagingly contemplative and meticulously well-crafted drone. With washes of guitar and synthesizer, subdued vocals, field recordings and minimal noise, Villages devise…
Certainty of Swarms
LP version: the fusion of metal, noise rock, free jazz, industrial, and harsh electronics that makes up The Certainty of Swarms is the rare kind of heterogeneous concoction that is carefully matured, but never lost in pedestrian calculation. A blistering onslaught of metallic-fused noise-murk, Swarms is considered by the band to be one of their most complete statements to date, an aptly blindsiding and developed work drawing from all quarters of their craft. Lp Version of this classic is finally…
Negatively Complicating A Procedure That Is Already Flawed
Stunning new jams by the trio of Ben Hall (Graveyards), C. Spencer Yeh (Burning Star Core) and Mike Khoury. Two violins and incendiary drums for a serie of dialogues that magically combine intensity and introspection, rhythm and silence, discipline and ‘fire’. When imagination meets instinct, music is free. A rare gem, a gift by gifted musicians.150 copies with handmade covers.
The Union | A Hem of Evening
Named one of the ten best solo acoustic guitar albums of the year by The Out Door and a top ten album of the year by The Liminal, Tom Lecky’s debut album as Hallock Hill elicited a powerful response when it was first released on CD by Hundred Acre Recordings last May. The album’s unique assembly of stacked and layered acoustic, electric and lap steel guitars delivered a new kind of studio improvisation: pieces that were spontaneously made, yet feel composed, pieces that glide from harmonio…
