Recollections I-II
During the Soviet era, art often had to align with propaganda, seemingly fostering a symbiotic relationship between the state and its people. Consequently, in the realm of “Social Realism,” most forms of artistic experimentation were strongly discouraged and even punishable. With few exceptions, 20th-century Georgian classical/chamber music remained quite conservative; however, when faced with dysfunctional cultural phenomena, there will always be gaps in societal walls through which oppressed c…
Archive #828285 Live
The Intone label was originally founded back in 1992 as a vehicle for Richard H Kirk's Sandoz project, initially a series of three 12" singles. Richard H Kirk is perhaps better known as co-founder and now sole member of the hugely influential Cabaret Voltaire. The Intone label is now relaunched with a 3 CD Box Set of Cabaret Voltaire live recordings from 1982 and 1985. Live in Liverpool (1982), Live in Sheffield (1982) and Live in Toronto (1985). Now distributed by Cargo, further releases are pl…

Operation Segerpil
Edition of 294 copies, brown cardboard sleeves with paste-on artwork and insert. Inspired by decades of well-intended Swedish mission work, the soul of the raw and uncompromising nature and early 80's bedroom electronics, Operation Segerpil was originally released as two separate EPs on Förfall in 2022-2023. Now slightly reworked and reorganized with the lesser parts scrapped, a rather powerful album somehow emerged from the mist. Brutish weirdo electronics covered in sweat and mosquitoes with b…
Spiritual America
"Spiritual America" is a story of dualities - experimental yet emotionally direct, complex yet raw, exceedingly personal yet broad in scope. Featuring hi-fi orchestra and award-winning children's chorus juxtaposed against bit-crushed guitars, iPhone-derived samples, and vintage synthesizers, Brittelle's genre-fluid, collage-like compositional style finds its fullest, most unadulterated form throughout the album. Bits of hair metal, experimental electronic, vaporwave, modern classical, indie rock…
Never Say When
A limited edition CD reissue of this classic compilation album originally released by Gary Mundy's Broken Flag imprint in 1987. Remastered by Puppy38, this also features two bonus tracks not included on the LP but only previously found on the even rarer cassette, this is a timely reminder of this fantastic archive document full of artists mostly still active in one form or another.
Birds Of Paradise
Celebrating the interconnected strands of head-tripping electronica she holds dear, Nadia Struiwigh arrives on Dekmantel with her fourth album of widescreen machine soul. Birds Of Paradise joins the dots between electro, techno, ambient and jungle as a reflection of the symbiotic relationship between the contrasting elements which drive all life on earth - the inescapable and chaotic forces of cause and effect. Echoing the free-spirited approach of electronic music in the mid-90s, it’s an album …

Is Peace Wild?
An album of hypnagogic nocturnes that relentlessly searches for a sense of calm in the great unknown, 'Is Peace Wild?' is German producer, drummer and visual artist Ludwig Wandinger's upcoming release on light-years. He dreamt it up while unpacking the breakdown of a long relationship, working in hotel rooms during the downtime between a series of chaotic live shows. To help empty his mind, Wandinger developed a suite of soulful reflections that prioritize harmony over rhythm and clarity over tr…

I Greet You At The Beginning Though I Can’t Control Your Exit
Moth Drakula’s second release on Misanthropic Agenda finds them revisiting and refining early industrial explorations with a more mature and precise ear; utilizing cracked microphones, raw natural sounds, sparse voices, analogue synthesizers and various samplers which scrub and oscillate the source material into peals of fevered dread. The impetus and focus of this recording was based on the process of attempting to bury the psychic history of a loved one. “I Greet You At The Beginning Though I …

Vaco
Atmospheres that evoke nocturnal wanderings without a precise destination, in search of sensations and unexpected events as if in a sort of psychic drift in which sounds, collected in random order in different places and times, fluctuate in compositions somewhere between soundscapes, ambient and electroacoustic music. The material on "Vaco" is deliberately fragmentary, a succession of incidental phenomena that the author projects outside specific space-time coordinates in a hypothetical and abst…
