Memories From Before Being Born
1999 release ** "Two empty tape-recorders, one connected to the other, no sound if not the distortion produced by the tape-recorders themselves in play/rec. On this recording of Nothing the modulations of vintage analogic effects: emptied frequencies, prenatal sounds without any sonic grain, audio for a flat electroencephalogram. The selection of the technical set-up through which sounds are produced is part of the N. (Nihilism, No, Not, Never...) aesthetics: THE PROCESS IS THE POETICS in "Memor…
I Cum Blood In The Think Tank !!!!!!!!
2007 release ** "There is a lot of apocalyptic in “I Cum Blood In The Think Tank”. Apocalyptic, but with class, as the Broken Flag groups knew how to be, Ramleh and Toll first and foremost. Desperate screams coming from the most hidden infernal ravines, slow and muddy progressions, almost sludge in some moments, dull and rough noise beyond any level of safety. However, Lietterschpich manage to work on synthesis, ferrying that sound towards the crowded shores of the new American noise. And the mi…

☆Lolicon Noise Star☆
2012 release ** Limited edition of 100 copies. "Venta Protesix hates music. He and his laptop are between the foremost representatives of the global scene of lolicon noise purism, a micro-terrorist genre born on the deepest reaches of last.fm shoutboxes, where mysterious 14-old Japanese schoolgirls praise chemical drug abuse, Konata-worship and black metal. Among his peculiar influences are 山内大輔 Daisuke Yamanouchi’s ero-guro movies, AV idols, hentai and the concept of fan service as an ontologic…
Sampo Distortion
2010 release ** Harsh-noise metal-junk project from Russia/Poland.
Niigata
2007 release ** "Minamata is the noise side-project of the veteran French industrial project La Nomenklatur. Primarily active from the mid 80's to the early 90's with tape releases. Minimata's world is a toxic one of industrial wastewater and environmental decay, where the human howls struggle against tides of metal junk noise and sustained pollution. This re-issue of the project's third tape from 1985 comes with two estra tracks from compilations recorded at the same period and one unreleased 1…
Receptores
*250 copies limited edition* A tribute to what should not be heard - the always inspiring Basque artist, a master of 'transconscious' drone music (linking the unknown with our minds), explores the mysteries of shortwave capturings, low fi hiss eruptions, unrecognizable noises of all kinds, a true "ether-therapy"! In the words of the author: "Receptores explores what remains hidden in static, white noise, and interference, using them as the core of its sonic approach. Drawing from lost signals an…
Like Music To Their Ears Vol. 2
2004 release ** "This is a compilation from the French label Mechanoise Labs and, as it says in the subtitle, it’s ‘an international gathering of extreme electronics’. These extreme electronics are often presented in a noise form, but it’s not only about that. Some of the tracks, by Cutman (from France), Control (from USA) and others, are like a harsher noisy side of (post)industrial. Sometimes there’s use of talking samples or the noise atmosphere is building up with voice shouting in Cutman’s …
Decay And Demoralization
2005 release ** "MAAAA's "Decay and Demoralization" comes at you with 6 tracks well over 60 minutes in length. This stuff is harsh and without a doubt the most extreme band coming out of Poland's underground today. Decay and Demoralization includes tons of power electronics and bizarre recordings that create an odd, otherworldly atmosphere stuck in a white noise frenzy. Banging metal, shrieking, dying, the cover of this album should say it all. These guys like to take the energy of punk rock and…
Sierść
2007 release ** "Ben Zeen's music is a combination of an analog modular synthesizer, controlled by Theremin antennas and a ribbon controller, laptops as a source of deconstructed, destroyed, processed loops and samples of various origins and used simultaneously as an effects center for other, external sound sources, prepared instruments and field recordings. The laptops are equipped with numerous controllers - knobs, touch, light."
Enhanced Room Acoustics (CDr)
2008 release ** Limited edition of 100 copies. "Expanded in 1993 with members Peter Duimelinks and in 1995 Roel Meelkop, this trio explores the world of micro electro-acoustic music, playing on waste found on the streets and with a fine addition of field recordings."
Zep Tepi
"The duo of Samantha Flowers and Tyler Hicks have been perfecting their dulcet tones for over ten years now. Combining, as if in a cauldron, blender, or analogous mixing device equal parts Detroit basement blues, Wackie's style studio murk magic and an old hard drive packed to the brim with Mutant Sounds downloads, they have managed something truly rare in this most dismal of decades: sonics recognizably their own.
These Kosmischen Kuriere also excel at another uncommon trait given time/place, r…
Complexed
2012 release ** "An abominable noise, perfect for those who don't love themselves. An authentic auditory disaster, a descent into the underworld of the most abject psychological dysfunctions, in an electronics made of surgical microsounds, ambulatory atmospheres, unidentified noises, patterns sent in loop until exhaustion. References? Well, think of the isolationist atmospheres of Mego (Pita in particular) or the extreme power electronics of an Atrax Morgue and you'll have a general idea of wh…
The Damnation Helix: Zeitgeist Movement Vol. 2
2006 release ** "Annihilvs Power Electronix proudly presents The Damnation Helix, from Wilt. With The Damnation Helix, James P. Keeler sinks to new depths of sonic necromancy. Hearken to the sound of black teeth grinding against the boundaries of the afterlife to send us a message of fear, as the voices of the damned cry out from beneath blankets of charred skin just beyond the threshold of a universe of pure madness. This material ranges from the familiar dark atmospheres of Wilt's previous wor…
Thinking Dust
2005 release ** "After a few CD-R releases, Wolfram's "first real album", released by the newly established Monotype label from Warsaw. "Thinking Dust" develops and exceeds the ideas from "Atol Drone" and "Mind Locations" released over the years - a very personal, calm, but also subconsciously disturbing variety of ambient. Wolfram never explored the sounds of "post-club" or naive el-music, so his work has always been free from rainbow idyll, instead it was disturbing (without evoking ghosts or …
The Deep
2011 release ** "Kasper T. Toeplitz, known as one half of Le Depeupleur (with Zbigniew Karkowski), is successful with his computer trio on the young Icelandic label Zoar. I think Toeplitz can do whatever he wants, it will always retain his special touch of grey sound. Here we imagine how a channelless TV screen with a crackled image is transformed into music. This scene always appears in my mind's eye when I hear music by Toeplitz. And so it is on The Deep - a fearless escapade of hissing, nasty…
Black Rider
2006 release ** "Dark and impressive Industrial-Electronics in classical style mixed with dronning and pulsating Power-Electronic tracks. Unreleased early recordings from these pioneers of the early 90ies! cover-art by Fabrice Billard."
