Differenz/Wiederholung 2
Bernhard Lang's Differenz/Wiederholung 2 is a multi-media piece for amplified ensemble, three voices and video installation. While the music is filled with rocking-and-rolling, anti-grooving sound slaps, "scored free jazz", and crippled repetitions, three vocalists present texts (including rap) from Gilles Deleuze, William Burroughs and Christian Loidl, commenting on usual repetitive human habits and its nonsense. If Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica (1969) is a milestone of avant-rock, …
Dw16 / Songbook
DW is an on-going cycle of Bernhard Lang's pieces, where composer explorespossibilities of loops and repetitions, which became his compositional trademark. Songbook I is another piece where Lang highly involves his patterns from Jazz and Pop music, transformed through “damaged beats”. "For many years one of my main influences beside the work of Philip Jeck were the movies of Martin Arnold: they more or less became the trigger for the series of pieces called Difference/Repetition
Organ Works Vol. 2
The second instalment of Klaus Lang's organ works and once again, two monumental works that span over two vinyl sides. "ABD" - contemporary vision of sacral chord progressions. "Melrose abbey" - perverse art of mourning music. Ultimate drone. Absolute torment.
Regenstucke Vol. 2
A sensational album by one of the most original composers of our time. Since Regenstucke Vol. 1 deals with rain aesthetic in pure instrumental form, Vol. 2 shows Peter Ablinger´s fascination with techniques of filed recordings, accompanied by different ensembles and orchestra setups. Ablinger has been exploring different sides and features of nature recordings for a very long time, always achieving new territories and pushing boundaries to higher level. This release represents only a minority o…

Live It
Temporary Super Offer! *2024 stock* From the same studio that brought us 48 Chairs (Gerry & The Holograms), The Fall and The Blue Orchids, while following the bona-fide bloodline between Danny and The Dressmakers, Toolshed and 808 State, the “difficult second album” by Biting Tongues (released on a minuscule cassette run by The Buzzcocks’ Vanity label) has since become a near mythical artefact of Mancunian DIY. Cementing the path between the Absurd label’s kitchen sink synth assaults and Factory…
Katabasis
’Katabasis’ is the first solo album proper from Panos Alexiadis - an electronic musician based in Athens- following a series of cassette and cdr releases with various projects/aliases. With a title that translates to ’descend’, Katabasis is a concrète sound environment generated through real-time synthesis using modular electronics, acoustic instrument samples and location recordings. Aiming to create a distinct psychoacoustic experience, the music avoids any overt tonal structures, focusing ins…
Paradise Crick
— Black Vinyl edition — Like a winding system of trails and paths cutting through a digital forest-scape, M. Sage’s Paradise Crick is shaped by time. Full of wonder and charm, designed patiently and from a rich, curious mulch of synthesized and acoustic sound, the versatile American artist and magic realist’s new suite of music is an imaginary destination and a pastoral fantasy that envisions the natural and fabricated worlds as one.
Matthew Sage is a musician, intermedia artist, recording engin…
Self Determination Music
The John Carter and Bobby Bradford Quartet/Quintet were critical to the progressive jazz movement around Los Angeles in the late 60s alongside the likes of Horace Tapscott. Both hailed from the Watts area and trumpeter, Bradford played with a woodshedding Ornette Coleman for two years in the early 60s when the legendary free movement leader decided not to record for a while but wanted to hone his trademark sound on the saxophone. Multi-reed player, Carter also worked with Coleman who brought the…
Words And Music
Edition of 215 copies. Words and Music is a rare and sought-after album by artist Tom Phillips (b. 1937). Fueled by painting, opera, and concrete poetry, this LP was originally published by the king, Hansjörg Mayer, in 1975 (this LP has never been repressed). Most are familiar with Tom Phillips’ “After Raphael” painting used on the cover of Brian Eno’s Another Green World LP, along with the television series he made with director Peter Greenaway, A TV Dante (1990). However, Tom’s crowning achiev…
in.version
*300 copies* The 90's run of :zoviet*france: is, what I consider to be, a divisive time for long time fans of the group. Gone are the days of wild and experimental sound collages and grating industrial, ritualistic ambient banger's and in its place is a more subdued and droning affair. During this period especially the groups hallmark sound would be twisted and shifted into what amounted to a swill of limp krautrock inspired dark ambient. Their live albums especially, are long and desolate treks…
7.10.12
This, Zoviet France's first major release in over a decade, originally surfaced last fall as a characteristically cryptic and incredibly limited box set containing rubbings of neolithic Northumbrian stone and a vial of hawthorn berries. Unfortunately, it completely sold-out world-wide on the day it was released, so most of us never got to hear it. VOD has now issued a new version. 7.10.12 offers up roughly an hour of minimal/quasi-ambient loopscapes. While they certainly offer many subtle nod…
Aswolf / Solar Anarchy
Pestrepeller join forces with the Opalio Brothers for an incredible limited edition split album; also a picture disc with mind-bending artwork by Pestrepeller's Savage Pencil and My Cat Is An Alien's Robert Opalio. The Pestrepeller side is a twenty-minute psychedelic epic that starts with a journey through a wind tunnel and ends up on the back of a giant churning bass-driven streamroller which flattens all in its path. This sees t…
