The Leech
|
7"
|
Waldchengarten is a danish duo from Aarhus that could be best described as “noise ambient” or “raw / harsh drone” in what they do. Their music on The Leech is very raw and filled with tiny noisy outbursts, at the same time ultra-sluggish & powerful. Low whistling feedback & pure electronic whirl-tones are omnipresent, everything seems to gradually sink to an alien center of heavy gravity like an organic entity that is slowly sucking energy while everything around is pulsating and rumbling in menacing cascades... this is dark, but its a darkness of sheer beauty.

I am NOT sitting in a room with Reynols
|
CD
|
Inspired by Alvin Lucier's Classic "I Am Sitting In A Room" recordings, Dan Warburton took an interview he made with Reynols and re-recorded the results of playing the recording, mixed with every other sound happening at the same time on top of itself. After more then a dozen mutations, he then mixed the results with a Live Reynols recording to create an odd mixture of raw electo-acoustics and Psych wierdness. ltd. 166 (absurd)

|
Tapeworm Tapes' dude Miles Haney, along with also being the guy behind EVENINGS, is also the boy-wonder behind Waste. the common thread between both projects is this never-departing thick bass-hurl. and while it reaches a strong-point with his other projects, it crosses into a new threshold on "BÊTE NOIRE". make sure not to leave anything too fragile on your speakers while listening.

Part I of this triple release. “The concept album is consecrated to Brest's destruction during summer 44 by both German and American forces, and dedicated to the 400 civilian dead in the explosion of the Abri Sadi Carnot on the 9th September, to the victims of the Telgruc bombing and finally to the 20 000 soldiers who died for this city, whatever their nationality.“ Introspective and solemn ambient with martial undercurrents. Beautifully produced item - one black vinyl and one white vinyl with black specks, in nice gatefold sleeve. ltd 500 (Steelwork maschine)

Depths of Field
|
CD
|
Clinton Watkins lives in some of the remotest land of this world (New Zealand, precisely). Previously known for some collaborative & split releases with ESO STEEL under the DOE moniker, here he presents us his shimmering debut for his new WHITEBASS project. The accurately named Depth Of Field is all about points of perspective, and varying degrees of perception, emergence along a vague axis & primal inner path, an aural translation of an impermanent state of flux. ltd. 100 (mystery Sea)

Modern Heterosexuality
|
1 sided LP
|
What we have here are three tracks of old-style power electronics, Very minimal in places, with periods of lull interspersed with piercing explosions, static bursts, and constant weird, heavilly processed vocals. Lyrics are very stream-of-consciousness stuff, and the delivery is bang-on, incredibly jarring stuff. Completely at odds with a lot of PE acts around today who tend to go for the muscular beefed-up American-style approach, this is very much more in the old Come Org vein, aesthetically in in the musical delivery.

CD

a double album released simultaneously on a single CD. No, I'm not joking! Damn near exploding at the seams with wonderfully resonant contradictions, it's exquisite textures are capable of blissfully enveloping daily life AND driving your neighbours completely batty. Massive Attack meets Steve Reich? A slave to an infinite, block-rockin' beat which melts into deep transparency revealing a subterranean omniverse of casiotone-mantras, silicon-chip psalms, and the mystical babblings of angels and derelict gutter-drunks. Free your ass and your mind will follow.

Ghost Call
|
LP
|
The three tracks on "Ghost Call" find Wiese bridging the gap between his more "pure" harsh noise work and the post-music of Sissy Spacek. Starting with a rich metallic drone, this gives way to a cut up attack as disorienting as any Sissy Spacek but relying more on speed and disruption than brutality. The B-side is a long collage of electro-acoustic sound and Vinyl manipulation. limited edition of 300, with hand screened covers

Teenage Hallucination: 1992-1999

CD

Teenage Hallucination is a compendium of John Wiese's initial recordings as a teenager to his seminal early vinyl appearances. From pure analog bedroom havoc to intense cut-up harsh noise blasts, Wiese steadily developed his highly personal and specific style of extreme music while trying to survive the St. Louis experience.

The black box Aesthetic
|
CD
|
A brand new full CD featuring 17 tracks totaling over 75 minutes worth of music that's hard to describe. For lack of a better term, I would classify wilt as "dark Ambient", but there's a lot more going on in his work then just that as Wilt uses such a large variety of sounds to work with. Even though the CD is made up of 17 distinct tracks, there is a nice flow and feel between them, which tie it together as a whole work, not just a bunch of separate pieces. The music draws you right in, creating a certain mood and feeling as each track unfolds it's story.

Wither
|
CD
|
Brand new release on Crionic Mind from one of the most interesting sound artists working in the US today. WILT extol the invisible corners of the thirsty earth with this exaltation of decay and reclamation. Best described as Noise Ambient, "Wither" is an aural quagmire of dusky vapors and ivy draped relics, grating erosions and the thorny shadows that rise and fall across dying landscapes. Recommended.

Debut CD from this Hamberg, Germany electro-acoustic project. Recorded using looped and manipulated vinyl groves to create a warm, and hypnotic drone. Very relaxing, the music is made of several layers: very long melodic tunes, some clicks and small beats, and prominent long atonal droning, giving this album a very hypnotic and mesmerizing feeling. Even though the tracks are punctuated by small percussions and rhythmic patterns, these elements stay calm and subtle, the foreground being filled with drones or samples, field recordings with a prominent "aquatic" atmosphere. Tribal in a way, "Windfahnenamt" is a CD that sounds very organic and some tracks fit very well to the strictest possible meaning of "ambient music". (Horch / Ars Macabre)

LP

the first ever collaboration between these two legends, Wolf Eyes and Sickness. This is not haphazard but a symbiotic collaboration bridging distant roads. This full length LP is a dark casket of scorched earth sounds, the remains of the cracks at the after shock of discovery. Reminding us of the peaks in either artists catalog There Is A Part Of Me That You Will Never Know processes the deepest sounds of these four masters in a haze of lone atmosphere and true noise. This is not not a terror shock, this is the end. (Hospital productions)

Welcome to the dance of Overtones. New Zealands Peter Wright has raised a reputation over the last few years with his music built mainly by guitar & field recordings. this 3-piece EP consists of little fuxion-mantras, made by waving guitar-overtones & sounds of Air & Water, with little additional sounds of daily room noises. Ultra-minimal & Harmonic, but with a certain raw directness & concreteness that creates a unique atmosphere. These wonderful over-tonic vibrations & sounds weem to tell little stories or daydream phantasies (Drone Records)
