In Girum Imus Nocte Et Consumimur Igni
This LP shows the band doing their improv feedback guitar drone in a more precise way than before. Of course it’s still related to NZ music : Surface of the Earth, The Dead C and all guitars projects from there, but also to guitar noise minimalism from the USA, Glen Branca, Tony Conrad et.al. but also salutes the godmother of French experimental music Eliane Radigue.

Kinematics 7"
* Edition of 100. Lathe-cut 7" record with laser etching. * Kinematics is the explosive first time collaboration between multi instrumentalist Ka Baird and percussionist Chris Corsano. Side A, Ordinate, is a frenetic weave of bamboo reed pipe, bubbling vocal utterances and drums, sounding much like a cart-full of shimmering dodos on the loose with the wheels flying off. Side B, Abscissa, is a more focused beating drone that mixes layered tones from an Asian battery operated tone generator (used …

Goner
**Edition of 125** Bloodletting is how Krovopuskanie translates from russian, the native tongue of the man behind this project of morose electronics and death-industrial gloom. He asked to remain "half anonymously," and we'll comply with that request, as he finds much of his personal life trivial when compared to the existential torpor his work speaks through: mental illness, self-destruction, suidical ideation, and emptiness. he is also a visual artist, working across a number of media, but oft…
Barbatrama
The Portuguese word Selva means “Jungle”, and this collaborative opus with Rutger Zuydervelt aka Machinefabriek is one more incursion towards Paradox. The Selva made this paradoxal enterprise its trademark: a trio with two string players (cello, bass) and a drummer with free improvisation and creative jazz as the matrix of their playing, but combining it with other musical languages, going from a deterritorialized kind of imaginary folk or world music to the picking of Renaissance and contempora…
