** Edition of 300 ** This is the second release from the Halatern, Etc. label, run by Keith Connolly (of NNCK/No Neck Blues Band fame). Tom Carter requires no introduction (those who are curious are encouraged to visit the historically rich wholly-other.com). Of late, his Kazuyuki K. Null meets Franco Falsini excursionary instrumentalism has taken on an increased luminosity, due in no small part to some unexpected time spent at a certain house on the borderland. In his own words: "Information-in…
Over the past several years, Vienna-based composer / producer Peter Kutin has been working intensely at the little-explored junction between sound art and journalism / documentation. Focusing on sonic experiences in extreme or exceptional conditions, Kutin explores both the physical and psychological impacts of such extremes on how we hear. Later translating or orchestrating these experiences into sound. Despite his age, Kutin has already seen (and heard) many lost corners of the world, having r…
Another lovely release from Upside label, responsible of the "fantastically primordial soup of dismantled and unstable rhythmic electronics and fractal synth patterns" as Boomkat said while reviewing Nastro / Here’s a very mysterious one-sider from Italian duo CYMBLS, their debut, so information about them is scant. There are five tracks on here which mix Italo-horror atmospheres with an earthy, freewheeling avant-minimal aesthetic as they melt between passages of bright, reverby organ, breathy …
After a short break after the monthly Mss Meestered zine, this is the first issue in a new series of visual and aural travel reports, mostly because the author would forget what happened on these travels otherwise.. This first issue was made in iceland during the last weeks of august (2013), it includes off set printed (rather colorful) drawings of melted alien elfs, bearded village druids, empty landscapes, and a ridiculous cake drawn under the influence of magic mushrooms, it also includes ris…
Alright then, Planam are pushing the boundaries of sanity again with this latest outbreak of lunacy by the French avant-garde quartet joined by freakishly talented vocalists Dave Nuss of NNCK and Mik Quantius from Köln. Gollaboration No.5, 'Bruxelles' was recorded at 2am by Yann Leguay and documents the sort of ritual strangeness that would get you locked up in less tolerant areas of the world. We're not quite sure who does what but Mik and Dave are definitely responsible for some of the …

** Edition limited to 350 copies. ** Visitation, created on April 1st, 2011 is a very unique kind of collaboration between two French sonic artists, master Luc Ferrari and eRikm.

Madeleine brought me immediately back to Luc Ferrari¹s electroacoustic piece Presque Rien N° 2. I became curious about comparing the bird that was officiatin…

"Alibi Coast" puts Sebastian's gentle guitar work & gorgeous vocals in the spotlight, & traces not one narrative arc but several, centering on the events of 2007, when Sebastian lost his brother Toby in a drowning accident
** Edition limited to 350 copies. ** For this new "gollaboration" the French combo GOL confronts the British drums legend Charles Hayward (This Heat) for a rough/delicate and intense/mellow paradoxical music delight.

The apparently chaotic ho…
