★Silentes Minimal Editions
Sostrah tinnitus - Stain
Warm, involving, deep and penetrating sounds... Flowing sounds patterns, vibrating drones permeated by a discreet sense of tension, evolving in dark, obscure, foggy, nocturnal atmospheres, violated by raven voices, mysterious noises and sounds of metal objects in motion... And then concrete noises, confused and elusive melodies, feeble light flashes, buried echoes of human voices, distantr whispers, sudden passages of rough sounds, undefined nuisances, subliminal and hypnotic sequences, just lik…
Rekviem MB-JMI
A "classic" minimal ambient album; just one long track, a bit obscure, of a static nature but unarrestable as a matter of fact and slowly developing, built with layers of soft and “round” sounds, heavily processed and effected, whose origin seems to be an organ... "Atypical" for sure, if confrontated with the huge and widely diversified productions of Maurizio Bianchi, this new album is probably one of the last and not to be missed releases signed by “M.B.”, since he has already announced his de…
Hibakusha
Cyclic loops agglomerates resting on static drones intertwined by flashes of electronic frequencies; algorithmic manipulations of undefined sound materials moved by bouncing delays and recurring panoramic space variations; a sequence of metallic waves in continuous tonal variation, heavy dissonances and sonic stratifications in progressive and pseudo-randomic composition/decomposition; desolate silences corrupted by resounding echoes of entangled electric rhythmic impulses... Longly awaited re-e…
Krungthep Archives
"After the post-industral / power-electronics 'diversions' of his recent collaboration with Pierpaolo Zoppo / Mauthausen Orchestra in From Unhealthy Places, and Forgotten Realm, the 'second chapter' of the Hall of Mirrors projects with Andrea Marutti / Amon in dark ambient 'territories', Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio) returns as a 'solo' artist in his newest Krungthep Archives, rediscovering the sounds of his oriental ethnic instruments, collected in he Far-East, mainly in Thailand. The recordings o…
Every live is problem solving
A suggestive gallery of abstract images, confused fragments of life and real living experiences, sights of urban landscapes... Noisy and electronic interferences, mechanical machines movements, concrete noises, low frequences fluxes, hissing sounds, interferences, but also melodic acoustic guitar pieces, human voices and other field recordings... A brave, uncompromising and heterogeneous "decomposed" mosaic of avantgarde sound art beyond time, beyond any point of view and any geometric coordina…

Final archives
This is the final chapter for this project run by Gianluca Becuzzi - well known for his old dark wave project LIMBO but also for his solo works and collaborations with Fabio Orsi. FINAL ARCHIVES is a sort of collection of rare tracks recorded from 1999 to 2006 totally reworked and remastered in 2009. ABSOLUTE GREY is the title that Kinetix gave to his graphic artwork selection exhibited with an ambient score specifically composed for the exposition space. The exhibition is made up of ten grey sc…
Ekhnatòn - Ricerca Italiana Semplice Numero Uno
This compilation, originally released in 1984 as a vinyl LP by Multiple Configuration in collaboration with the legendary ADN label, is finally available again in a completely remastered CD version. "Ekhnaton" collects tracks recorded by the most daring and remarkable bands that were active in the experimental Italian scene during those years. "Simple Italian Research Vol. 1" was (and still is) the subtitle of an album that includes two tracks from each of the following bands: Maze 1066, Tasaday…
Implosione tra le pieghe dell\'anima
A sensational CD release of an awesome tape (originally published by Multiple Configuration) that includes live tracks recorded between 1983/1984 and comes in a completely remastered edition. Tasaday are a "cult" band active since the early Eighties. Born from the merging of Die Form and Nulla Iperreale, they are probably the most eclectic and groundbreaking representative of an Italian experimental scene that used to blend elements of rock, noise, experimental and industrial music with great co…
Atrocity exhibition
Here's an unmissable and collectable 150 copies limited edition CD album, released to celebrate our fifth year of activities and available only as a free "bonus" included in the "bag" that contains the latest 13 Silentes releases. Born from an idea by Stefano Gentile, who also actively participated to the making of the album, the Maribor project brings together for the first time in a collaborative CD some of the most remarkable names of the Italian experimental and avantagarde scene: Maurizio B…
Electrostatic Deflection
"Electrostatic Deflection" is a new industrial-music masterwork, created through collaboration with Maurizio Bianchi, and Israeli musician Maor Appelbaum. It's represents Bianchi's more extreme direction... a sample of whats comming in the future from the historic Italian composer. Amazing impact, immense slabs of industrial sound in motion. Sweeping vistas of intense static energy, storm-fronts moving across the stereo field, an acoustic tidal wave approaching landfall, breathtaking deep and da…
Der Abgrund
"Der Abgrund is the last act of an unsolved theorem which must remains the same. It's the arcane enchanter of a denied truth since mimesis of itself, as not manifested manifestation that nevertheless perseveres on its concept of form beyond the form. It's omnivalent hypostasis of a prismatic Maurizio Bianchi who is annulling himself and reinvents between a climate and the other without solution of continuity, today in symbiotic communion with Frequency In Cycles Per Second. "Der Abgrund" is an o…
Chaotische Fraktale + Letze Technologie
A new double cd from Silentes, containing soundworks by 'Chaotische Fraktale' and 'Letze Technologie'. These works were sourced from collaborations between M.B./Maurizio Bianchi, and Frequency in Cycles for Second/Sandro Kaiser. A fascinating sonic mix of influences here... industrial, electro-experimentation, minimalism, noise, and deep-listening. Large, drone-based segments meld with the distant sounds of reverberating piano and soft whispered melodies. Dramatic and dark. Huge pools of sound, …
TOGHETER\'S SYMPHONY
An extraordinary collaboration between the hystorical italian de-composer Maurizio Bianchi and the eclectic electronic-ambiental experimenter Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio). An unmissable 4CD box that's a long and kaleidoscopic journey at the edges of sound, from the dark-industrial feelings of Together's Symphony, CD that gives the box the title, to experimental-lyric-introspective atmospheres of Secluded Truths, to sonic multicoloured collages of Niddah Emmhna, by the only M.B., and the electronic…
Dead Colours
This is the reissue of a CDR published by SILENTES a couple of years ago in only 120 copies. Now finally available on CD with restored artwork. DEAD COLOURS shows the more quite side of MB... with an incredible dark melanchonic tough in vein of David Lynch's atmospheres... Fantastic!
Menstruum Regles
Decomposition instead that composition. De-structured music that instead structured music. Not to complex and articulated technologies forrecording, mixing of the parts and mastering; not to onesophisticated production and maniacal and defined participations correct in post-production... This the new "challenge" capacityto the extreme limit from Maurizio Bianchi, a new musical effort,"directed", "raw", immediate, absolutely uncompromising new, to outsideof every law and from every pre-constitute…
