Subfried Traffic perfection
|
CD
|
Two outstanding Italian projects present a unique collaboration of eclectic style. `Subfried Traffic Perfection` is based on individual treatments of specific loops and samples – the effect of melting levels, interference, noise spattering and clicks create an entirely new structure of sound. This CD contains a bonus track remixed by NAVICON TORTURE TECHNOLOGIES. (Horch)

Drift of Sanity
|
C40
|
Conceptual and dynamic analog harsh noise. Loops, cut-ups, and walls of pounding feedback/metal/vocals all collide on this excursion into the realms of serious mental illness and its grisly aftermath. Crashes of metal and screeching microphone feedback crush the listener while screaming vocals pan in and out adding to the atmosphere of the recording, with lyrics only seldom explored (accompanying narrations set the mood parallel to the audio tracks themselves) throughout the trip. Prepare your psyche. White box with cover on the top, 2 coloured inserts, 1 A4 poster xeroxed quality in red paper. (Nil by Mouth)

guess that most of you are used to al margolis's (aka 'if,bwana) more 'serious' electroacoustic soundscapes and expect 'gruntle' to be another fine addition to this style.. in a sense it is... a unique if,bwana recording, collecting 4 tunes recorded between 95 - 02 which however refer more to the legendary if,bwana tapes sound where al's creative play w/ loops & enigmatic sounds together w/ the childlike artwork of nixilx.nijilx make it a wonderful trip in a bizarro world.

A blistering and turbulent barrage of violent electronics. Over sixty minutes of dark, damaged and broken synth heavy noise exploring sexual confusion, rejection and self-destruction. Overbearing and always evolving sounds create layer upon layer of pain and frustration which blend together to form a massive wall between the artist and the outside world.

6 tracks varying from densely constructed noise walls to more spacious atmospheric tracks. Its a very odd release, words fail me to describe it well. The material is mostly inspired by continued failure, bringing on complete lack of confidence, which in turn creates further failure. The sound and feel of the release ended up being alot less aggressive or devastating than some I:G, but in turn, more depressing and pathetic. ltd. 100 (RRR)

The Crackling of the Anonymous
|
CD (or LP)
|
After 5 years since the last studio album, Aldebaran, Now comes the 2nd full length recording from this German project. With The Crackling Of The Anonymous, Inade move beyond all pre-conceived notions of sonic creativity. The plethora of puzzle pieces that interconnect in the expanding universe that Inade unwaveringly explores have grown amorphous, no longer defined by distinct outlines, melding as one whole, obscure entity. The expansion comes in many levels, incorporating the vast parameters of time, dimension and reality as viable participants in Inade's aural objective: to shine a light on the enigmatic unknown and give it a vague silhouette. The dark and hallucinatory masterwork that is The Crackling Of The Anonymous, is constructed via the never heard utterances of the void, while tapping into the psyche of the impossible. A stunning release that defies all logic because it creates its own. Also available as a limited edition Double LP in a beatifull gatefold sleeve for $20

Burning Orange
|
CD
|
Incapacitants needs no introduction; the duo of Fumio Kosakai and T.Mikawa; veterans and originators of Japanese noise music; cult band number one for noise fanatics worldwide; a band whose infamous status as the best live noise act ever has continued to grow over the years because the duo almost never plays outside of Japan. In January 2007 Incapacitants performed live, for the second time in Europe in 25 years, at the All Ears festival in Oslo Norway for an overly enthusiastic audience (people from all around Europe had travelled to see their heroes), Burning Orange documents these concerts. The CD consists of two complete sets; one Incapacitants as a duo and on the second joined by finnish noise-connoisseur Tommi Keränen (Testicle Hazard) as a trio under the name of Fumio Tommiakawa. The sound of Incapacitants is described in the liner notes of Burning Orange by Tommi Keränen as "an inspiring, pure, all-encompassing, ecstatic storm of sound that has a power of near-religious proportions – and that alone,without any unnecessary gimmicks". That celebratory ecstasy certainly comes across on Burning Orange, of which Keränen also handled the post-production under the supervision of Mikawa. (Pica Disk)

This is the Incapacitants in their most intense modes right from the beginning of the disc - albeit in a bit special way through the use of theremins instead of vocals. A total convulsive barrage of sound packed in detail and spaced out frenzy - originally released as a cassette by the legendary Japanese G.R.O.S.S. label in 1995 - a recording that has been begging for a second issue as the original is really scarce these days. Re-mastered by T. Mikawa of Incapacitants and featuring a brand new twenty-minute bonus track. (Segerhuva)

LP

Absolutely most awaited full-length vinyl from INCAPACITANTS, is the purest NOISE enthusiast, originally formed by T. Mikawa since 1981 in Japan. Here is the first ever solo LP vinyl in 20 years since the legendary album 'Repo' published by Alchemy Records in 1989. Side-A titled 'K's Family' features three brand new recordings with solid sense of direction keeping vigorous strength and stormy dynamics on each track. Side-B is a long piece excerpted from overwhelming live recording as typical supreme tag team formation with F. Kosakai at ShowBoat in Tokyo, 3 June 2007. This is not only the new testament for all of Noise fundamentalist, but also the shining introduction for those who are going to be resident in true Noise fields. Maximum purity as psychosomatic union proved by intensive electronics causing ghostly and fertility atmosphere filled with harshness. (Dogma Chase)

The Infant Cycle is a project of the Canadian artist Jim DeJong working under this name since 1994. The Infant Cycle's music has never been notable for tensity or ornateness, instead of this it focuses on the subtle aspects of sounding of separate timbres and their combinations. Such textural orientation allows to create a completely peculiar effect, and the seeming minimalism carries into the contemplation of the infinity of possible microsound combinations. The Recordings for this CD where created using altered vinyl records. Jim carved the runout grooves of records and thus created simple and unembellished (yet in some ways, unpredictable) rhythm patterns. Once he decided to start a project severely limiting the sound sources to one carved playout and the operational sounds of his old 4-speed Califone record player. Additional noises were generated by running a razor blade along the platter while it was spinning (the blade at different altitudes, and the platter at different speeds which was picked up by the needle), and the tone arm being vibrated into different tones by a violin bow (amplified via the needle). (Zhelezobeton)

A perfect example for "esoteric-organic-drones" that impresses the listener with the density and fullness found in their music. Gentle waving drones added with sub-bass pulses, all is in a suspension state while hidden harmonies appear in the background: soft ringing-tones giving the impression as if we were in this huge organic cathedral. Listening to IN MEDITARIUM might give you the impression of touching something "unknown". Something unclear or unconsciously forgotten in the length of time.like us being slowly created in the warm walls of mother's womb. ltd. 300 (Drone records)
