DNA
Dna is Rosaceae’s second album for Pudel Produkte after last year’s acclaimed »Efia« for the Hamburg label. The eight tracks further explore the artist’s interest in the interplay of sound and language while also adding skittering rhythms and thumping kickdrums to the mix. »DNA« is a complex but enriching album that as a whole not only reflects ideas of resistance, solidarity and internationalism, but also how they are mediated and their meanings are shaped by different types of mediation. Whet…

Never officially released, illicit ninth generation cassette copies circulated in Japanese fan circles for many years, attaining a whispered, Holy Grail status amongst initiates to the Rallizes cult. High quality soundboard versions were finally released by the secretive…
Italian Division
«While composing these pieces, I focused on the 20th and 21st-century composition techniques in three main concepts: Serialism, Microtonality, and Noise. You could almost say the Italian Avant-garde of the last century had it all: noise, new music, and the math of Leonardo of Pisa, later known as Fibonacci.In making Composition For Two Oscillators And Two Tape-Recorders I focused on microtonality. The basic concept I like and play with is when tones get close and start to interact with each othe…
Speed Snake
Edition of 130. Much slower and much more hypnotic than the usual EVOL style. Around an hour of weird computer raga. Mind-bending experience quite unlike any other
It Feels Great But The Planet Is Dying
In Micah Pick and Benjamin Mauch words...The title for this album is an actual snippet of conversation that occurred on the first day of 2020. In the midst of recording music together in Richmond, VA, we took some time to get some fresh air, and were enjoying the unseasonable warmth of the day, but also were reminded that although it felt pleasant in the moment, the warming of the planet is a far from pleasant experience. As enthusiasts of outdoor recreation we have enjoyed warm days in the mids…

Streugebilde
If you weren’t paying attention, you might think this is a collection of solo ruminations by German pianist Georg Graewe. Listen closer, however, and you’ll discern contributions from harpist Sara Kowal and Viennese turntablist dieb13. Across 15 short improvisations – most of them just two or three minutes long – Graewe’s is the dominant voice. Kowal’s rippling harp tends to blend in with Graewe’s right-hand excursions, adding an extra layer of detail, while dieb13 contributes tactile electronic…
Disrupted Songs
* Edition of 100 * Disrupted Songs is meeting between two musicians with vast experience and different backgrounds, grounded on mutual listening and sensitive balance. Choosing to work on the energy triggered by a clash of imaginative minds who have made research and free improvisation the central point of their action, the duo does not previously set any rule. Simon Balestrazzi (electronic and electroacoustic musician) and Paolo Sanna (percussionist) create their own music in real time, buildin…
All Your Ghosts In One Corner
From March 8th-14th, 2020, Kuzu was on a seven-concert tour of the United States in the South and Midwest. During that week it became apparent in this country that the world was on the brink of a crisis unknown to humanity for almost exactly a century. In those seven days, the feeling on the street changed from one of anxiety to one of impending doom. By the time the band arrived at Elastic Arts on Thursday, March 12th, their home base in Chicago, it was clear that these would be the last concer…
A Waste Of Red Meat
**200 copies** A Waste of Red Meat responds to the question “what does it mean to be human in the face of technology?” with a brief answer: exactly what it always has meant. To be slightly more specific, what we know as a human exists as an entangled body of tangible and intangible objects, institutions, forces, and histories. And the internet didn’t change that. We have always been these entanglements. The only difference now is that modern technologies have joined in. To explore this idea, Pe…
Ikigai
**200 copies** After the intense 2020 tape "Tykoching vs. Gamera", Hanzo Hasashi's brand of cinematic, surgically accurate and twitching cut ups continues with "Ikigai" ("a reason for being"). This Japanese concept refers to having a direction or purpose in life, providing a sense of fulfillment and towards which they the person may take actions, giving them satisfaction and a sense of meaning. Hanzo Hasashi is an artist involved in the areas of cut-up harsh noise mixed with field recordings, am…

Ostensione

Ordinary Lives
Flag Day Recordings is proud to present the new full length album by Tyresta titled "Ordinary Lives" "Ordinary Lives" is a long form composition, clocking in at just over 33 minutes. Utilizing his modular synthesizer, mellotron, guitar, computer and effects, Nicholas Turner creates a sprawling piece of music that has a breathy, organic pace to it. Percussive, clanging metallic textures weave in and out between orchestral passages reminiscent of early prog and German electronic music. Many times…
Taciturn, Moribund
Taciturn: inclined to silence; saying little. Moribund: in terminal decline; lacking vitality or vigor. Cobbled from tapes in various states of erasure, the four tracks of “Taciturn, Moribund” tell a sort of blurry and obscured ghost story. Like a faded photograph, only far less romantic. Largely unrecognizable sound sources, like memories, wither and crumble. Their impressions remain lurking under a hazy veil of tape hiss. What eventually emerges is a tapestry of anxious expanses, interwoven w…
