★Boring Machines
Mamuthones
This eponymous new album is a definite step beyond previous Mamuthones’ releases: it still retains the droney, foreboding darkness of its older siblings, but this time the sound is the one of a raw, aggressive rock trio. Shrouded in a haze of psychedelic noise and firmly rooted to Boldrin’s inventive and powerful drumming, the album gathers a series of crushing performances interspersed with shorter, more reflective interludes. At times hypnotically thundering (The first born), monstrously rhyth…
A forest dark
Conceived as as a soundtrack for the silent movie “Inferno (1911, Milano Films)” A Forest Dark is the new album from Satan is my Brother, after four years from the eponymous debut on Boring Machines. This new chapter sees the band expanding to five stable elements, with the addition of Antonello Raggi’s keyboards. A Forest Dark sounds less noisy and chaotic than its predecessor, electronic hiss remains now mostly in the background as a layer where acoustic instruments make their moves. It …
Squadra Omega
Squadra Omega is a psych/avant/kraut rock collective with former and present members of the Mojomatics, With Love and Be Maledetto Now! devoted to free improvisation, psychedelic jams and mind blow ups. It is said that all empires are built upon the ruins of previous empires. It is said that destruction breeds construction. In times of deadlocked aesthetics and stylistic stagnation the time is nigh for a destruction of the old and the construction of the new. From the rubble of a post-post moder…
ToTheOtherSideΔ
BeMyDelay is the solo project of Marcella Riccardi (Blake/e/e/e, Franklin Delano, Massimo Volume), singer and guitarist. Her interest in archaic blues and adventurous music is the ground for building a song collection which tastes of experimental blues, vocali drones, acoustic pareidolia. "ToTheOtherSide" is another piece of the puzzle of that female psychedelia that goes from Grouper to US Girls, Valet and many more. The sound here is more shaped and definite than Liz Harris’ or Honey O…
Wo Ist Behle?
The first release of Fabio Orsi on Boring Machines is the result of his recent moving to Berlin, after living long time in Italy.The cold winter left an heavy mark on Orsi who has been stricken and enthused by the psichedelic feeling of the long Berlin winter. Covered in snow, the most remote places of the city have the same hazy feeling of the hot summer days in Salento but the glacial weather gives a different perspective and transforms the atmosphere perception.The sound of the new record is …
Chasm Achanes
MINDBLOWING! Chà sm Achanés is the result of a common project between two experimental musicians of the fertile Bologna (IT) area where sound/art projects like Xing/Raum, Netmage and Sant’Andreadegliamplificatori are run by a community of forward thinking artist and musicians to create a meeting point for different languages and sensibilities. Recorded in one take at Officina49 in Cesena (IT) this record has been created using tape recorders and several electronic devices (Maggiore) and…
Lieu
FaravelliRatti is a duo comprised of Nicola Ratti (guitar) and Attila Faravelli (computer) who play with a tower of different prepared speakers and a taper recorder in between them. The idea is to fed speakers with different languages in the same space and have them resonate with the phisical space. Every speaker is prepared and positioned so the resonance can be controlled by the players, moving their bodies around the sound totem in between them. Their live set represent this idea, of building…

...and He told us to turn to the Sun CD
Father Murphy is an italian trio, after one album and many eps we are releasing their darkest and strongest album to date. Think of Alan Sparhawk’s Low doing versions of Twilight furniture from This Heat or Milk it from Nirvana. When the final, 10-minutes mastodon “In their graves†creeps in with all the agility of a primordial doom-metal beast slowly sucked in a prehistoric swamp, everything comes full circle: an uneasy, compelling, furiously heretic yet sandblasted in Catholici…
Piallassa (red desert chronichles)

A single long track of different threated sources, samples and acoustic guitar …

"Language of the Dards" is a multi-part series of pieces developed around the text/teachings/songs of Indian Yogi, Milarepa made of three long recordings of voice/finger-pickin guitar, nepalese oboe, and electronics. The album comes in a hand-assembled gatefold sleeve.
vs Be Invisible Now
That's a long and repetitive hypnotic mantra to elevate Your cerebral remains to an higher plan, - all built on four suites, two per Artist, USA meets Italy, both persuasive and sinister, like soundscoring a four-stages trip for the outer space. Justin Wright records an airy synth sample similar to a quiet respiratory movement, - then He makes a loop of it, to death, and it weaves a infinite carpet of sounds where an acoustic guitar advances solemnly, in a crescendo of fuzzy solo and symphonic m…
clynical shyness
The record is a collection of songs mainly written in 2001, some of which appeared as alternative-takes in several EPs and compilations, either on tapes on CDs. The most significant material recorded during the last few years, under the code name “Clinical Shyness”, has been rearranged and manipulated by My Dear Killer, during the winter of 2005. The result is a pearl that lasts only thirty minutes and sticks together, with biadhesive tape, Nick Drake and the Sonic Youth. The combination might s…
my dear killer
"an intoxicating blend of dark Ambient and steamy jazz. A vast, shifting blanket of atmospheric drones and textures, sourced in part from processed field recordings and occasionally spiced with samples ( a snippet of Ginsberg's Kaddish, some purring shortwave modulations) is sporadically supported by a supple, powerful rhythm section, but mostly left to billow darkly and malevolently in a way that recalls some of the colder moments of thei compatriots Larsen. The use of a brass section in such a…
neutrino
The moniker Be Invisible Now! Differently from what I thought doesn't' hide the guitarist of italian-post-punk-freaks With Love (yes that band that put out a weird dvd a while ago...you won!). Said that forget it since I assume there's no six strings in here (or at last from what I can hear) but there's an abundance of laptop plus synth conspiracy. There's a common retro/freak essence in this project but here we're talking about drone with a spruce of "kraut" influence and that what probably ma…
