A sleepwalking Krautrock-fever dream inside an acoustic mirror cabinet/ Not only has he invited more friends than ever for his latest album, Mirko Uhlig unveils a veritable treasure chest of ideas/ Guitars seem to play themselves into ecstacy, whispering Instrumentals tiptoe through empty coridors of candlelight, lunatic voices murmer from behind closed doors/ Still the most concise and consolidated aalfang-work up to date/ It's the musical equivalent of a lava lamp: Warm, woozy and full of wonders.

ACCELERA DECK POP POLLING (Scarcelight Recordings) CD
Accelera Deck is the current recording guise of one Chris Jeely. Since 1997 Jeely has produced 7 full-length albums, and over two handfuls of limited editions 12, 7 and CDR singles. Pop Polling is his 8th full-length and is a bit of a departure from recent Adeck efforts. All sounds are still created by guitar, but instead of the ear splitting digital workouts found on his Sunstrings ep (Scarcelight, 2004), we are treated a collection of songs (yes songs!, like verse/chorus/verse) highlighting Jeelys penchant for melody. There is a sublime simplicity that underpins most of Pop Polling, and only on occasion does it veer into noisier territory. Mostly we are witness to some delicate feedback and unfolding guitar melodies accompanied by various forms of drones. [Scarcelight]

PRICE: 12

ACCELERA DECK SUNSTRINGS ep (Scarcelight Recordings) CD
Following close on the heels of 2003's Ipsissima Vox, Accelera Deck (aka Chris Jeely) delivers a 30 minute ep of guitar feedback sonorities. In much the same way a split speaker created a fascinating "new" guitar sound, .Jeely's digitally clipped guitar ponderings lend a unique character to his sound. At times the guitar oscillates freely, notes are bent and shaken, new clusters emerge, loops spiral out of control, feedback overwhelms......

File Under: Beautiful Noise. [Scarcelight]

+ 33 minutes of music released on the 3rd day of the 3rd month with catalog number 33.

ADRIVA COLD SEA WEEK (Abgurd) CD-R
Project of Denis from formations of SUNCHARIOT, ENMERKAR and MATTER shows a little more experimental Drone Ambient than the one he performs in his main project, SUNCHARIOT.

The album is dedicated to the author's sojourn on the shores of Black Sea in winter. Slack, congealed soundwaves crystallize in the air and gently descend on eyelids and shoulders, immersing one in eternal slumber of Suspense. Floating spectres of drowned fishermen, call-signs of ultramundane submarines, icefloes that ram Eternity, chasm of scalding coldness and pitch-darkness.

AEMAE THE HELICAL WORD (Isounderscore) CD
First record from longtime AQ pal / customer Brandon Nickell aka Aemae, two long years in the works and we dare say it was well worth the wait. A gorgeous and exquisitely crafted abstract free noise drone record. Dark and deliriously dense, a perfect amalgamation of the experimental dronework of the Hafler Trio, the sweeping skreescapes of Sunrooof! and Vibracathedral Orchestra and the abstract minimalism of Mirror or Jonathan Coleclough. As well, this has plenty of distinctly unique sonic elements. Heavily reverbed chimes and bells are smeared into a twinkling fog, slowly thickening into a dense slab of electrical impulses, woven together so tightly it resembles a buzzing ball of hornets, a throbbing thrumming drone. Strange steel drum like electronic pulses, an alien gamelan, pickes out a tranquil melody beneath swooping and blooping spaciness, sheets of industrial shuffle, scrape and rumble, leaving sparkling trails of dense and complex almost IDM skitter in their wake, albeit wrapped in thick gauzy veils of warm reverberant flutter. All stretched into distant, soft focus soundscapes of warbling whir and creaking ambience. Quite lovely and sublime! [Aquarius Records]

AERE AETERNUS HUMANITY NEEDS NO FUNERAL (Kaosthetik) CD
"When Dark Ambient meets Industrial Deviance". CD version contains a explicit video clip released by Baron Saturne

"Humanity Needs No Funeral", the first full-length album from AERE AETERNUS, was released on the French label Kaosthetik. With a multi-national and eclectic lineup, the band comprises Alex (MACABRE OMEN, THE ONE, RAZOR OF OCCAM), Claudio Alcara (FROSTMOON ECLIPSE, STROSZEK), Cyr (DARK SANCTUARY, ELKTRONIK SCIETY) and Radu. Drawing on the wide range and considerable musical experience of its members, AERE AETERNUS creates a dark, disturbing atmosphere that probably best fits within the ambient and minimalist genres, and which the band themselves describe as "half misanthropic ritual and half sex ritual."

The dominant atmosphere combines a sense of impending insanity with sexual deviancy and a large dollop of occultism, creating a dark and troubling misanthropic sojourn that is relatively unique. The final track is probably the most musical, as it is centred on a guitar arpeggio, but no such concessions to convention are present elsewhere on this deeply troubling disk. The accompanying video of "Invocation" shows a Satanic ritual in all its kitchsy glory. Recommended for those looking for something a darker than the usual entities. 7.5/10 www.chroniclesofchaos.com

AETERNA NEW DAWN (Cold Meat) CD
Awake the New Dawn!

Aeterna is a new apocalyptic folk outfit from Germany, born in 2007. In the beginning it was intended to be the strictly personal musical outlet for founding member Birthe Klementowski, well-known from her artwork for Cold Meat Industrys Desiderii Marginis, :Golgatha: and Dawn & Dusk Entwined, but the dynamics between Alpha and Omega brought forth something new. The dark and brooding atmospheres invoke the mood of decline and decay, a direct resemblance to the artists photography. The album New Dawn ultimately presents 11 songs about the decline and rebirth of culture.

Aeterna does not serve ideological pattern but presents the musical and visual output as an inspiration for the audience. Death is always the beginning of a new circle. Out of hopelessness arises a New Dawn. As the earth faces the end of resources and the destruction of nature, the loss of spiritual values and the total virtualisation of the all-day life, mankind experiences a self made inferno. We have to turn and find new ways Aeterna is a prayer for these new ways. For new spiritual values to ignite the fire of enlightenment once more. To create something new out of the old roots. The Old Gods eventually may not return, but the Eternal Principle is still there.

The music of Aeterna is based on ritualistic and shamanistic structures, mainly acoustic sounds, and invoking chants all based on the dualistic principle of male and female energy Alpha & Omega. Aeterna is a trans-modern, neo-shamanistic, animistic art project. A Luciferian hymnus to awake the New Dawn

AGHIATRIAS REGIONS OF LIMEN (Epidemie Records) CD
An extensive dark-ambient album devoted to the theme of subliminal sensual perception and its fictive musical applicaiton. An abstrakt conception of the confrontation between the surreal and real world (artificial ambient versus realistic industrial sound). The meditative character of the compositions is brightened by discharges of a kind of radioactive irradiation, representing the fleeing moments of understanding. The formation aims for purity of expressive means in an effort to accentuate the role of the primarily suppressed and ignored spiritual dimension of our world,while pointing to the importance of the liminal "structures" of our perception.

AGLAIA MONDI SENSIBILI (Hic Sunt Leones) CD

AGLAIA UNPROFANED TWILIGHT (Faria) CD
The fourth cd of Aglaia is born from the previous work but, in comparison with them, it develops a wider breath directly from the backgrounds sounds. The composition is softer and more refined. Again the sonorous world that here is explored is that one of the enchantment, of the mild sound fading. An unprofaned and inviolate twilight, where the different vibrations are balanced, without any sort of tensions. Time rolls by and space too. The sound is a natural matter and gives birth to an intense crepuscolar light. Listening to this music is like to see thousands of fine luminous rays, filtered through half-closed windows. A dance of dust in a never ending movement that catches the light around. With aglaias sound we are in an electroacoustic microcosm full of vibrating signs.

The first of the two long compositions suggests a natural and quiet landscape. The sounds mood is a sort of perpetual tinkling, wrapped up a voice coming from the space, that observes from afar. An harmonic accordance between different reality.

The second, even though more intimate, is equally shining. Everything happens during a night where insects, spring-waters and moonlight match themselves together. A swarming midnight with underworld life.

AHASVERUS EVOCATION (Ahasverus) CD-R
At the turn of the century 1900, the western civilisation was spreading its wings over the world, colonizing, baptising and oppressing other cultural expressions. One of the most significant manifestations of this era, is the archaeological excavations and explorations in Mesopotamia, Mesoamerica and Egypt. Professors, adventurers and other explorers of the romantic spirit of the times haunted monuments and grave chambers in their task to steal as much as possible to bring home to the safe western enlightened civilisation. Whole monuments and temples were taken in parts, shipped over thousands of kilometers and reassembled in European capitals, where austere authorities proudly announced their gratitude.

These white-bearded men in dark costumes are personifications of a schizofrenia that distinguish that time. They are both bandits and saviours.

This is a sister-work of Ten is the number, produced parallel with partly the same material, but with oppositional methods. Where "Ten is the number" is structural, calculated and abstract, "Evocation" is sensitive, expressive and narrative.

Ahasverus act II

Comes in digipak with hand made linen cover and 8 pages folder.

AIDAN BAKER EXOSKELETON HEART (Crucial Bliss) CD-R
Following up his amazing Periodic disc that was issued through Crucial Bliss two years ago, acclaimed Toronto drone-guitarist Aidan Baker is back with Exoskeleton Heart, his newest entry into our ongoing Crucial Bliss series. And this 2-track, hour long excursion into deep feedback bliss is stunningly beautiful. Split into two halves, "Interior" and "Anterior", Baker once again taps into his visions of the bodycage using only his electric guitar, performed and recorded live; the result is an evocative feedback-heavy dronescape drifting with the gritty hum of the amplifier, layers of shimmering, chiming feedback, crushing distorted ambient dirge that borders on Sunn O)))-levels of sonic weight, and shafts of elegiac melody breaking through the stormclouds of Baker's cavernous rumbling like rays of sunlight. Aidan Baker is without question the North American counterpart to the Tuetonic guitar drones of Troum, and Exoskeleton Heart delivers some of his most massive, meditative, crushing, and beautiful subterranean drift yet. Hell, the final 10 minutes of "Anterior" is without questions one of the most beautiful things we have ever presented through this label, an angelic glacial melody that builds inexorably into a wall of blissed out fuzz a la something you'd expect from Aidan's dronesludge band Nadja. Essential. The disc comes in a full-color signature Crucial Bliss foldover sleeve with the disc affixed to a plastic hub on the interior of the sleeve, and has been pressed in a limited edition of 300 copies.

This is a wise pairing between the two completely versatile and experienced electronic manipulators. There are a host of totally warped sounds like I?ve never heard from either KK Null or Alexei Borsov. Sticky electronic pitter-patter leads way to tinkling sine tones and cryptic foreign terrain. When they integrate some guy mumbling, it truly sends me back to the seminal sound of lost souls that became Throbbing Gristle.

ALISTAIR CROSBIE MUSICFORSHIPWRECKS (Afe Records) CD-R
"Musicforshipwrecks" is the third in an occasional series of albums, expanding on the previous volumes "Musicfordrowning" (Lefthand Pressings, 2006) and "Musicforlighthouses" (Quinquaginta, 2007).

I wanted to really tell a story with this installment as this was something I hadn't done across a whole album previously. I also wanted to stick to conventional instrumentation - aside from a voice sample on the opening track, all the sounds are either guitar (tracks 2 and 3) or synthesiser (tracks 1 and 4).

The album was recorded across the first three months of 2008 - during this period, I had to cross a river at least twice a day and the weather was mostly awful. This undoubtedly influenced the album's contents.

I had originally intended this to be the last "Musicfor..." release but I have come to feel that there is one more part of this story to be told.

ALLSEITS is the Solo project of the german instrumentalist Nina Kernicke known from her recent collaboration with German Drone pioneers Troum of which Nina has also been a recent live member of and her work under her other alias, ALLSIDES. The Album "Hel describes the way into the underworld, the listener is guided through various stages on the journey down to Hel, the Norse mythological term for hell and also for the goddess Hel who is said to keep watch over the underworld. The journey begins at the foot of Yggdrasil, the world tree, under which the entry to Hel is hidden. We then ride the river Gjll, that flows along the human world before it runs down to Hel. Gjll is spanned by the bridge Gjallarbr which is guarded by Modgudr, a female giant, who decides who can pass the bridge. Leaving Gjallarbr behind, the large dog Garm that sentinels the gate to Hel is waiting and at his side sits Fjalar, a rooster that will crow to signify the beginning of Ragnarok, the end of the world. After passing Fjalar Hel is finally reached. This allegoric tale is expressed diligently by Kernicke with the use of guitar, bass, drums and skillful sampling creating thick drony layers of deep and solemn emotions. Edition of 1000 copies In gatefold cardboard sleeve.

The rhythmic mantras contain static as well as various rhythmical structural changes that keep momentum and flow throughout music.

Andrea began his experiments with music in the early '90s using tapes and concrete elements. A few years later he also began to use synthesizers, samplers and other electronic devices, and founded the Lips Vago Digital Studio.

Several releases of Ambient / Dark Ambient music credited to him were published by labels such as Eibon Records, Amplexus, Silentes, Nextera, Drone Records, Talem, etc. on CD and other medias.

He is also responsible of many other projects dealing with different styles of electronic music ranging from Lo-Fi / Weird / Cheap Electronica to IDM (Wolkspurz & Ramirez, Lips Vago), Dada / Noise / Non-sense (Spiral, The Afeman).

He is part of Hall of Mirrors along with Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh), of Sil Muir with Andrea "Ics" Ferraris (Ur, Airchamber3) and of Molnija Aura with Davide Del Col (Ornament, Echran).

Mortar was a side-project of Moreno Daldosso, mainly active in the Power-Electronics area as Murder Corporation.

Owner of the now defunct Murder Release label - mostly specialized in Power-Electronics / Noise cassette releases - he also released music under the Metastatic and Spiral aliases.

Mortar's trademark lo-fi sound can be easily filed under the Death-Ambient genre, we'd like to remember his ability to create horrifing soundscapes using low-resolution and time-stretched samples of classic music.

During its first years of existence, Mortar music was published - mostly on cassettes - by Murder Release, Slaughter Productions and Old Europa Cafe.

"Emperor's Return", the first Mortar CD album, was published by Fuoco (a joint effort between Eibon Records and Amplexus) in 1998, while a limited LP vinyl album entitled "From the Grave" was released by Oktagn Records in 2000.

Two CD-R releases on Blade Records and Anaemic Waves Factory were also published before the project was disbanded a few years later.

ANDREA MARUTTI THE BRUTALITY OF MISBREATHING (Opaco) CD-R
"The Brutality of Misbreathing" is Andrea Marutti's first full-lenght release published under his own name. He is better known for his Amon and Never Known projects and as Afe Records label owner. His music has been published by Eibon Records, Amplexus, Drone Records, Talem, etc. This album is a one hour journey between dramatic dark atmospheres and drone-based ambiences in slow and continous evolution. Echoes of reverbered metallic sounds and sharp circular loops, electronic elements and saturated signals close to distortion emerge each now and then from the disquieting sound mass. The music flows in a persistent alternation of majestic crescendos and quiet discreet stases; a sense of tension and discomfort permeates the whole disc, just like being stuck in a long and appearently never-ending bad dream...

ANDREI SUCHILIN IKI (RAIG) CD
Iki originated among the townspeople of Edo, especially around the pleasure quarters in the late eighteen century. Middle to lower class Edokko praised iki fashion, enjoyed iki situations, behaved with iki discretion to couples, and wished to be iki persons Iki was defined as consisting of three marks: erotic allure (bitai) with pride (hari) and resignation (also sophisticated indifference, akirame).

In the past ten years Andrei Suchilin has scored for the images of many Russian underground film-directors. Featuring three dark and brooding collage-pieces with lots of artful quotations, this is not easily categorized. Over ten musicians of various background got involved in making this recording. The music evokes a variety of soundscapes, found noises, classical miniatures, and rocky grooves. It flows with the imaginary movie-action, reflecting the intensity of the images yet doesn't overpower them.

ANEMONE TUBE EXISTENCE (Auf Abwegen) CD
'Existence' is an interesting mix between rumbling noise and floating ambience.

Anemone Tube was founded in Summer of 1996 by Stefan Hanser who felt the urge to express deeper personal feelings and dreams. The audioworks from Anemone Tube vary a lot along with the different means Stefan Hanser uses as sound source and for manipulation and could easiest be described as industrial-, ambient- and noisescapes of organic and synthetic sounds. The use of constantly shifting and altering sounds and moods is possibly one of the most intruiging things about the audio creations of Anemone Tube with the purpose of trying to put the listener into a delirious mental state, to irritate, torment and caress him no matter if in a positive or negative way.

Limited edition of 500 numbered copies.

ANTI-VERSTAND SONG LIKE WIND (Abgurd) CD-R
ANTI-VERSTAND - side-project of YAO 91404 D - is pretty known among adorers of Russian Noise due to tapes released by YAOP and a couple of CDR re-releases made by Abgurd and Fight Muzik. With "Song Like Wind" the project introduces absolutely new and fresh point of view on its Art. The first recordings of ANTI-BRAIN were on the verge of boundless madness and unprejudiced aural challenge, while the new album appears to be more expressive, strict and catchy, burning with romantic-totalitarian lunacy of the best works by YAO 91404 D, e.g. "Heroes of the Coal Age" and "Key to Abyss". Love-poetry of soviet-era, disco-songs, accompanied by a captured metal impress, soviet-era variety art, rough and rigid feedbacks, concorporated into percussive ritual noise loops and abrasive distorted tapes emerge monumental piece of art.

ARC ARKHANGELSK (Epidemie) CD
ARC is a Canadian trio (Aidan Baker - guitars, flutes, tapeloops, Richard Baker - drumkit, percussion, & Christopher Kukiel - percussion) playing tribal guitar drone ambient with psychedelic and post rock elements and very hypnotic sound. Their brand new album Arkhangelsk brings 4 compositions in 67 minutes and comes in nice 6 panels digisleeve and is limited on 600 copies.

Arkhangelsk was recorded in Toronto, Canada in December 2007 in two separate sessions. The first consisted of improvisational performances on drumset and guitar and the second consisted of layering percussion, electronics, and woodwind tracks on those original drum/guitar tracks. Both sessions were done in real-time in single takes with a minimum of post-production editing or manipulation in an effort to capture the spontaneity of the performances. As such, Arkhangelsk maintains the typical ARC sound while simultaneously exploring more adventurous poly-rhythms and textures, combining influence/inspiration from such artists as Flyer Saucer Attack, The Boredoms, Tribes of Neurot, and Rapoon.

ARC THE CIRCLE IS NOT ROUND (Small Voices) CD
ARC formed spontaneously in 2000 at a performance at The Ambient Ping, Toronto's long-running live ambient/experimental music series. ARC is a trio of Aidan Baker (guitars, flutes, tapeloops), Richard Baker (drumkit, percussion), & Christopher Kukiel (percussion). Their music is a mixture of Popul Vuh acoustic compositions, Pink Floyd's Ummagumma era, Voice of Eye or Subarachnoid Space..., with dense and organic drones and hypnotic ethnic rhythms. ARC's sound is centred on the melodic loops, textures, & samples provided by heavily-effected guitar & other melodic instruments. This is overlaid with tribal-esque rhythms provided by various percussive instruments; drum kit, djembe, tabla, wood blocks, etc. With this combination, they create a roiling tapestry of both rhythmic & ambient sound, a sound simulataneously prim(ev)al & avant-garde. ARC, regular performers in Toronto and Montreal, have released a number of cdr releases on such labels as Piehead Records, Worthy Records, and their own label Arcolepsy Records. Their release "The Circle is Not Round" with Italy's label A SILENT PLACE is their debut CD release.

ARDITI MARCHING ON TO VICTORY (Equilibrium Music) CD
The original release of "Marching on to Victory" dates back to 2003, with a small pressing of 1000 copies on the obscure Swedish label Svartvintras. The legacy that one half of the project brought from his work with Puissance was fairly evident, yet the focus on his work as Arditi was not so much beautifuly orchestrated narrations of the apocalypse, but far grimmer depictions of the past centuries world conflicts. Field recordings and blurry speeches were incorporated into Arditi's compositions, adding a rather disturbing tone to the predominant military snare-drums, obscure symphonic arrangements and hypnotic soundscapes. The suffocating combination between martial classical arrangements and somber atmospheres would set Arditi's debut album as one of the bleakest releases on the Militaristic Neo-Classical movement that was starting to flourish at the time. "Marching on to Victory" is now made available again, in a deluxe Digipak release featuring 2 bonus tracks.

PRICE: 12

ARDITI OMNE ENSIS IMPERA (Equilibrium Music) CD
Omne Ensis Impera introduces an additional strength to Arditis compositions - epic orchestral loops and thunderous percussions are granted a more prominent role, stirring the damp and suffocating ambiance that the duo have always produced so well. The highly anticipated new album by the Swedish duo is finally upon us, under the title "Omne Ensis Impera". The sense of determination that echoes through their music and which has brought them to the forefront of Martial / Industrial Neo-Classical scene has stayed untouched, evoking the sense of duty and commitment that Italy's WWI elite storm troops, from which the name Arditi originated, were known for.

Similarly, shades of the Italian Futuristic movement of the early XXth century, which served as inspiration in the early days of the project, remain imprinted in Arditi's work - "Omne Ensis Impera" could well be a modern interpretation of the Futurist's goal of glorifying warfare to an artistic expression beyond its inherent violence and intrinsic sense of heroism.

"Omne Ensis Impera" has been mastered by Kamrat Nordvargr of Mz.412 and Toroidh, an old ally of the band. Nordvargr has also contributed with additional arrangements on a couple of tracks, and prepared a slightly modified track list, which will feature on the vinyl version of the album that will follow soon, together with a limited edition box set. The CD version is presented in a deluxe glossy Digipak, with embossed artwork.

ARDITI STANDARDS OF TRIUMPH (Equilibrium Music) CD
Tapping further into the darker tones of Militaristic Neo-Classical ambiance, Arditi present their strongest effort so far, with their ever effective use of crushing orchestrations and evocative speeches.

Spearheaded by H. Mller and M. Bjrkman, Arditi's first recordings came to light in 1997, inspired by the Italian Futurist Movement of the early 20th century.

Boasting the unique personality of this Swedish combo, "Standards of Triumph" taps further into the darker tones of Militaristic Neo-Classical ambiance that has become the band's trademark, resulting in their strongest effort so far - ever effective in their use of crushing orchestrations and evocative speeches, Arditi hereby drags the listener around muddy trenches, leaving aside overly pompous festive marches or alcohol fueled merry bunker songs which seem to have become the norm as of late, and casting an hypnotizing veil over the turmoil of warfare-inspired Industrial soundscapes.

ARKTAU EOS AI MA RA [Aural Hypnox] CD
Ai Ma Ra is a monumental album containing over 105 minutes of experimental elemental and ambient music, original in the literal sense of the word. More than music, it is 'ethnography of the unknown' in action, providing vistas into rarely glimpsed corners of reality. Created primarily on acoustic instruments, organs and harmonium, carefully mastered on vintage tape, the sound is equally earthy as it is otherworldly a contradiction in terms maybe, but then Ai Ma Ra is not classified easily in any other respect either. It is a record in which to immerse ones self over time, containing more than two years' worth of strange experiences and sensations distilled into a curious, potent elixir, the use of which may in its truest sense be determined only by the individual listener.

Ai Ma Ra, pressed in 1.000 copies, comes in a sturdy, deep green cardboard box stamped with the mark of Arktau Eos. Contained within is an 8-page booklet bound in tte-bche format on high quality paper, a small talismanic print, and two CDs.

ARKTAU EOS MIRRORION [Aural Hypnox] CD, 2006
Presented in seventeen chapters that can be approached as singular gateways or a slowly unfolding journey of epic proportions, the debut album of ARKTAU EOS is a challenging, complex work. Born of intense private musico-magical sessions held in places abandoned by man and further refined in the temple-laboratory of the duo, it is the distillation of seven arduous months of work.

As the title suggests, 'Mirrorion' is the music of stellar light thrown down from the Heaven's zenith and its eldritch reflections in the depths below, uniting atavistic elemental noise with serene passages of crystalline, spectral ambience. Ultimately, 'Mirrorion' seeks to surpass such earthly definitions in favour of a non-dual vision of reality, hopefully transforming the listener in the process.

For this recording ARKTAU EOS have favoured an organic approach with majority of instrumentation being of acoustic variety, including the unearthly choral of the kanglings, piercings blasts of windbones, accelerating steel-plate rolls, singing bowl and various kinds of stringed instruments.

Comes in an six-panel, A5 booklet. Limited to 1000 copies.

ARMON KUILU S/T (Totuuden Sarvi Levyt) CD
The first release from Totuuden Sarvi Levyt is a piece of Finnish art destined to remain in the minds of those who hear it. The debut mini-album by Armon Kuilu is a funereal musical journey, two long progressive compositions built out mostly of classical piano, strings, orchestral drums, singing, prayers and invocations in male and female voices. More of a gothic work than a total assault on the senses, yet one must remember that the word gothic is often abused in connotation with just a melancholic form of new age entertainment music but here the soundscapes bring to mind images of forlorn cemetaries, initiatory cults, bloodletting, woodlands and altered states of consciousness. At times the melodies of chamber music break out into squeals, groans and crackling which haunt the space and resonate with the Finnish poetry, that most of the time reminds one of a satanic ceremony. Some passages sound familiar to the listeners of European avantgarde and progressive music such as Actus, Art Zoyd and releases from the label Athanor. Post-industrial fans should also listen to this work but remember that this is not your generic so-called occult album with the usual Crowley spoken parts. Instead this is a deeply personal work with challenging classical and sometimes jazz or progressive melodies composed by the master behind the project and performed by real musicians with authentic instruments and also utilizing real actors for the various voices and spoken parts. Believe me, you will hear the difference. The mini-album comes in a black & white sleeve with a full color 8-page art booklet (size 7x7"), built from nature-mystical imagery shot on infrared film.

AURAL HOLOGRAMS VOL. I (Aural Hypnox) CD
All of You who have gone before, across the ages we call You, to join us and together reach the unsetting stars of the White Nights, the Horizon of Hollow Earth.

The very first part of the Aural Holograms series incorporates various call and response patterns manifesting vibrating, subtle energies, all of which have been accurately divided into separate rhythmic dimensions and time-shifting aural tapestries.

The overall experience - i.e. the ecstatic effect - is transmitted by the intensity of syncopated rhythms, reed organ lingering on a few tones, self-transforming vocal work accompanied with carefully chosen oscillating tunes and a variety of percussive patterns utilising artefacts crafted according to the methods of traditional metallurgia, as well as real-time tape operations.

{ 6126'N 2152'E } The rum is poured on the ground, words are spoken in secrecy: the Dead Men will come to tell their tales.

Comes in six-panel hand finished cardboard booklet, in an edition of 1.000 copies.

AUTODIDACT CHINESE GIRLS (Crucial Bliss) CD-R
The latest full length from Texan dronerock/disharmonic sludge pop project AUTODIDACT. Waves of chiming discordant guitars and spare glacial beats surge beneath barely-concealed melodies and noisy pop hooks. The BAND OF SUSANS influence is again strong here, but as if that band reformed in an overheated basement somewhere down south, trying to rewrite PIXIES tunes with a battered, beersoaked drum machine on loan from GODFLESH and cough-syrup drenched black-metal vocals moaning/croaking bizarre atonal proclamations. Completely fucked up. Fractured disharmonic guitar-drone pop bliss. LIMITED EDITION OF 200. [Crucial Blast]

AVSKY SILENT DECAY (Reverse Alignment) CD

BABYLONE CHAOS / LAMBWOOL / LE DIKTAT: SHI (OPN) CD
The object you are holding in your hands is special in many respects. The product of a collaboration between three artists with a divergent, and indeed sometimes opposed, approach of music, this work plainly demonstrates how their musical universes ultimately complement each other along three axes noise, rhythm and melody.

The melodies are provided by Lambwool. A talented musician adept at creating musical landscapes fraught with melancholy, he colours the record with layers of keyboards and acoustic instruments samples that conjure up the crystalline, meditative melodies he has become renowned for.

Babylone Chaos has long been an avid proponent of chaotic, oppressing climates and deals in suffocation and saturation. The nefarious vapours of his distorted, out-of-joint universe bring a great measure of entropy to this opus.

Le Diktat is the only duo involved in this three party collaboration. Le Diktat brings the rhythm to the table. Break-core loops, drum nbass rhythm patterns, trip-hop, electro and rock elements coupled with scratches create the most unexpected stylistic fusions, even on the most haunting instrumental tracks of this album. The result is a surprising collision between acoustic purity and punishing industrial beats, but a remarkably daring demonstration.

Jembes, flutes, scratches, harp, piano, samples; intense episodes or long, meditative soundscapes; sometimes quiet, sometimes heavy with saturation, this work of contrasts displays a thousand faces, takes a thousand forms which will not fail attract any and all who would take a musical journey in unchartered territories. The soundtrack to the End Times!

BAD SECTOR CMASA (Loki) CD
In 2005 Massimo Magrini was invited to provide a soundtrack for the M3M art exhibition in Pisa/Italy. The exhibition was based around images of the seaside and the rivers estuary of Pisana area with CMASA airplane factory built there in it's centre vis a vis of archaic marine cottages. This marvelous seaside scenery mixed with vintage industrial locations, together with some kind of nostalgia, created an unexpected but amazing mood. To sculpture a soundtrack of this scenery Massimo Magrini was asked to use acoustic and natural sounds too and so he added for this work treated piano and snippets of acoustic guitars together with water sounds and metal samples. This may sound unusual for a BAD SECTOR release but all those new elements are perfectly blent into the massive and ambient soundwaves for what previous releases are known for and making CMASA probably to the most emotional album of Massimo Magrini to date. All initial exhibition sounds where regenerated, remastered and re-assembled during 2007-2009. Digipack.

BAD SECTOR + TOMMASO LISA RESET / REBIS PERIFERICHE (Old Europa Cafe) CD + BOOK
For this release Massimo Magrini was Joined by the Italian Cyberzone-Writer Tommaso Lisa! So the album was recorded using as conceptual reference Tom's "neuro-poems" collection REBIS. Short spoken fragments of the texts are treated and inserted in a sonic structure built with minimal, strangely sincopated pseudo-rytmhs and sharp pulsing noises. The effect of those spcken texts is really disqieting, a very severe & obscure release, different from all previous Bad Sector albums! In the background, Bad Sector's trademark chilling micro-melodies completes an upsetting, allucinated but crude vision of our "Collapsing Civilization". Try this album & "Reset" your "Weltanschauung"! The Cd will be packed inside a book cover, the book contains Tom's Cyber-poetry plus a series of graphic designs

Special edition : 300 numbered copies CD + Book with aditional MCD. MCD with aditional unreleased bonus material from the same "Reset" recording section

BALTIC FLOUR MILLS S/T (Autarkeia) CD-R
Now "Baltic Flour Mills" is a well known and modern art gallery in London. But it wasn't in 1997 when Darius Ciuta, the member of legendary Lithuanian noise project NAJ and Arturas Raila, a well known video artist, a present gallery "Baltic Flour Mills" was a forgotten and old mill. Millions of rats ruled the place. In order to get into mill premises, visitors had to sign a pact, which declared non-responsibility for possible accidents. So, in 1997 two artists equipped with special recording devices went to an dangerous trip through the mill in order to record strange air waves and sounds of huge mechanisms. Later in a radio studio, from the collected samples from the mill, "Baltic Flour Mills" record was created. It consists of two long tracks. In those tracks listeners can hear cold and urban "ambient" that sometimes is enriched with special "noise" elements. Music construction methods remind of NAJ album "Resituation" from the PURE series - incoming city sounds, filtrated through mill concrete walls and metal mechanisms can be heard. The background is fulfilled with children, which were never in that mill, cries and sounds of opening the doors, which were locked for years. Album mood towards the end of it is getting more and more worried. Recordings create a grey and paleness sense of the surrounding world. It reminds us that one day, now the fine gallery, will become what it was a long before - a pale ghost in a dark London and instead of the slogan on the walls - "Baltic Flour Mills", only "Alt Our Ills" will remain.

Album "Baltic Flour Mills" lasts for 60 minutes. It's packed in a special dark DVD box set. In album complex there is a CD video-postcard, a 24-page inlay and a rare Autarkeia label's postcard. We recommend you to listen to "Baltic Flour Mills" only on Hi-fi stereo. Limited edition of 250 copies. [Autarkeia]

BARARUM DANU'S REBIRTH (OMS Records) CD-R
A longly anticipated album "the Danu's Rebith" by "Bararum" project that is just out of production strives to traditions of neofolk sounding. The basic theme of the album is taken from Nik Perumov's novel "the Diamond sword / the wooden sword", whose magical but realistic and bright images have been Strakhinya's and Skryling's inspiration in their rather successful attempt to reconstruct unique atmosphere of the elven, human and gnomes world. And, certainly, wonderful music tells about strange and miraculous people of Danu, about young emperor's way and his unusual love to a girl of Danu. Unprepared listener may find the album a little bit complex to understand - the absence of a vocal, flying fifes tempo, unordinary fiddle parties make compositions really swift and versatile. Produced style of music appears to be quite unique,since the fundamental ideas of compositions are delivered through nonclassical musical tools. It is neither a pseudo-celtic folk nor slavic tunes,in general this music is rather indirectly connected with national one, but it is a certain alloy of new pseudo-ethnic melodies and the modern approach of music creation. Fifty minutes of sound represent 10 themes, all united by the basic idea and perceived on uniform breath. Each composition tells about the certain episode or the hero of the book. Package - pro-printed black cardboard envelope with silver printings. Total time - 48+ min. First run ltd. ed. to 99 handnumbered copies.

BARDOSENETICCUBE DEADHEAD (Aquarellist) CD
New album of Bardoseneticcube is the whole surrealistic musical performance which is impossible to squeeze into the boundaries of any genre. Six untitled pieces reveal the labyrynth of sonic cobwebs born in the depths of subconscious mind of Igor Potsukailo and his brothers in arms (several guest musicians took part in recording sessions - two guitarists, saxophonist, etc.). The basis for the most tracks is formed by the hybryd of orchestral-ethno-electronic rhythmics and it's layered over with melodic lines walking from composition to composition and completely unexpected samples hardly rationally coordinated with musical context. For sure, this time Igor's talent has beaten all the stylistical limitations - the album sounds very organic and energetic.

New Orthodox Line brings together two of the most notable Russian post-industrial / experimental groups: Bardoseneticcube and Noises of Russia. This unique collaboration stirs the best of both artists to surface, and results in an extremely powerful and intense emotional experience. The opus travels from sacral soundscapes of orthodox choirs and church bells to a more punishing end of the sonic spectrum provided by pounding rhythms and howling feedback. Here, the opposites unite with passion and compliment each other for the sake of the greater good, the synergetic New Orthodox Line.

BARDOSENETICCUBE XXX (Aquarellist) CD
New Bardoseneticcube album is inspired by life and works of Nika Turbina - a poetess who started to write grown-up tragic poems when she was only 4 years old. "This is not me writing, this is God leading my hand", - the small girl used to say. First Nika's book of poems came out when she was only 9, and was later translated in 12 languages. After living pathologically strange life, receiving the most prestigious poetic prize "Golden Lion", and being held in mental hospital, at the age of 27 Nika tragically died falling down from the 5th floor window. The musical dedication of Bardoseneticcube is presented in 12 untitled tracks filled with surrealistic feelings and some childish morbidity. Obscure loops and industrial soundscapes are buried under a pile of rhyme wreckage, melody fragments and almost chaotic manifold of strange sounds.

BESTIA CENTAURI ERATOGENESIS (Eibon) CD
Sonic landscapes that convey a sense of the numinous, the horrific, and the extra-human. With the new release, Bestia Centauri defies once and for all the persistent mischaracterizations of its sound as belonging to the "Dark Ambient ghetto". Electroacoustic and computer music elements come brazenly to the foreground, and contribute even more so to the flow of "crawling chaos" that has always characterized and inspired Bestia Centauris compositions. The genesis and development of a monstrosity is the theme of this new work, which charts a course from mutated unicellular sonic DNA to the resultant life-form that reaches "from the jaws of the dragon, from the depths of the abyss".

BISCLAVERET PSYCHE NOMINE (The Eastern Front) CD
Bisclaveret - A Polish dark ambient/dark wave duo presents its album Psyche noMine. It took two years to conceive, resulting in 6 songs (clocking at around 53 minutes). Musically, it's a piece for those interested in moving, yet extraordinary art. Lush strings, industrial rhythms and even noise tones at times summarize the background for Dragos' voice coming from the other, subconscious side of his mind. Lyrically, it's a concept-album of sorts. All the lyrics deal with human sub consciousness. The words on 'Psyche noMine' shows a man entangled in the arcane of the world, somebody who does not notice phenomena around him. The man whose recklessness or even arrogance so natural for him is the cause for him being lost in the surrounding reality. The album's ambiguous title suggests what receivers will deal with when listening to new Bisclaveret album.

A must-have album for fans of Nordvargr, Dead Man's Hill and Cold Meat Industry acts, such as In Slaughter Natives & Sanctum [Label info]

BLACK SUN PRODUCTIONS CHEMISM (Old Europa Cafe) CD
Black Sun Productions' new album for Old Evropa Cafe consists of 14 tracks of tribal electronica and it stands as the most rhythmic output to date coming from Massimo & Pierce and their fellow Children of the Black Sun. The wooden sound of the marimba in combination with flutes and drums merging with very European sounding violins will reveal to the listener a new and pleasantly suprising attitude in musick-making of this collective of sound artists. The mutating precision of Pierces electronics is here counterpointed by Massimo's sonorous, deep vocals. Eschewing the melancholy of the double disc The Impossibility of Silence, Black Sun Productions seems to have moved with CHEMISM into an electronic semi-operatic mode. Some of the album's tracks were written and performed in collaboration with draZen and Bahntier. CHEMISM features Val Denham and Ariot Fleischmann on additional vocals, Roman Hollenstein on drums and Roberto Budelo on violins. CHEMISM is possibly the most original sonic statement of Black Sun Productions and it consacrates Massimo & Pierce as a truly eclectic duo of performers and producers. Coming into a 3 panels digipack fully illustrated by Jacopo Camagni and Marco Felicioni of Studio Dronio.

Dedicated to William S. Burroughs on the 10th anniversary since his death, CHEMISM is largely inspired by William S. Burroughs' 1969 novel The Wild Boys.

BOCKSHOLM THE HAUNTING CURSE OF SKOGS-SARA (Wrotycz Records) CD
There is a legend saying that Skogs-Sara lived in the forest called Osterskogen, she got a virgin born child named Frans Enoch. Soon after the birth three nude gay men arrived, they had followed the bright iron sign in the sky to the small Skogs-Sara lodge. These three men gave Frans Enoch the bastard one gift each; black clogs, an orange thermal Helly Hansen sweater and a box of snuff. Frans Enoch later worked as a cheese producer but on his spare time he preached that one day there will come two men named Peter Andersson and then the city of Boxholm will forever be doomed. The citizens of Boxholm did not believe Frans Enoch, so they crucified him in the forest and let him die alone. Skogs-Sara went furious and put a curse on the citizens by letting two named Peter Andersson to be born who would terrorize the citizens for all time with a project called Bocksholm. The third terror attack by Bocksholm is now here. After two successful albums on Tesco Organisation and NATO, Bocksholm now turns the root of the problem with the album "The Haunting Curse of Skogs-Sara". The music is a weird and explosive experience, it is harder and stranger than ever. It is a psyhological weapon that sneak upon the victims. The citizens of Boxholm will get fucked - and so will probably you!

BRIGHTER DEATH NOW NECROSE EVANGELICUM (Cold Meat) CD
Recorded during 1995 that most creative of years for Brighter Death Now, which also produced the much harsher album Innerwar, as well as the final part of the epic Great Death trilogy Necrose Evangelicum was immediately received as a new milestone in the genre of sacred-death-industrial. In fact, the album had the most favorable reception of any BDN record, and has generally been considered the most easily accessible of BDNs work.

This groundbreaking album is nothing short of a sacred death-machine that relentlessly works itself into the mind with a most obtrusive, and almost dangerous, insistence. This review from 1996 says it all:

This is music created from a place beyond all imaginable Hells... a place that exists only deep within the macabre mind of its creator, Roger Karmanik. A CD of such impenetrable darkness, as if the entire world had collapsed into itself! Where the inspiration has been drawn from for these recordings can only be speculated, but suffice it to say, it's not a place one would like to spend eternity! Tormented voices announce the birth of some unspeakable horror, while heavily metallic, grinding electronics shudder like the last gasps of a dying machine. Together, they form a vision so bleak and ghastly it purges both the mind and soul of everything but the most impure of thoughts. Leave all notions of decency at the entranceway, for they are not wanted nor needed here. Only in the final title track, featuring the despondent orchestrations of Mortiis, will you find solace, but even that is a harbour deemed unsafe.

And yet, as a Brighter Death Now record, we still insist that it is easy listening

In order to once more make this groundbreaking album available, we have gone back and digitally restored, remastered and remixed the tracks to give them the facelift they so richly deserve. This new edition of Necrose Evangelicum is presented in a beautiful foilprinted digipak together with a live CD recorded during the same era. Actually the live CD is the recording of a rehearsal for a concert in Vaasa, Finland, which ended up never taking place! The permission of the organizers ran out, and the evening came to an end, before BDN had an opportunity to take the stage.

Darkishly served in a gold-foilprinted digipak!

BROKEN DIODE SCREAMING ON THE INSIDE (Existest Establishment) CD-R
"Screaming On The Inside is a term Ive used more than once to describe a suffocating barrage of trapped emotions and frustrations. Each of the seven tracks here gives a voice to these feelings. Although initially sounding like a wall of analogue noise and tortured machinery on the verge of collapse and total breakdown, closer inspection reveals a host of intricately woven textures. Vocals appear just long enough to inject a human element into the machine chaos, before being swept away in the flood of frequency destruction, often torn into ragged shapes which in turn become something less than human. Brief moments of calm, and by brief I really do mean brief, are punctuated by growling basses which inevitably become part of something larger and dirtier without losing enough form to be completely swamped. ... This is a fine, fine piece of work. An almost cathartic listening experience at times and executed with a vitriolic pride." (Heathen Harvest)

Limited to 104 copies, hand numbered and comes with a full-colour poster.

CAGES FOLDING SPACE (Cold Spring) CD
The shaking notes that make up Folding Space were recorded by two people holed up in their whole respective imaginations of visions of loops, layers and pleading lyrics. They sought sounds from the same dreams that give fools belief and colourfully punctuate the nights of the sanest. There are elements of dreamy ether and discomfort rather than the easy choruses and catchphrases of the most collected and consumed art form. The visions backing this elaborate music were recorded and are performed for a primary reason: to exist freely. An hour of music set in studios buried by blizzards of the American Great Lakes region. Artwork with gold print. [label info]

CALABI-YAU COMPACTIFIED (Faria) CD
Calabi-Yau (called in the names of two mathematicians (Eugenio Calabi) and (Shing-Tung Yau )) spaces may be that microscopic shape, deep inside the hidden dimensions of string theory. There are many such spaces

According to string theory, space-time isn't 4-dimensional as you might expect, but 10-dimensional. Where are the extra six dimensions? One answer is that they're "compactified": roughly speaking, rolled up into such a small space as to be unobservable at human scales.

You are in the forest, it is night, and in a moment you are in space, exploring the phenomena, for which there is no explanation and knowledge in our daysAnd You hear the sound of loquacious water far away from You. The sky is in front of YouYou can observe all the planets to be clearly. And there are plenty of animals around You, which Youve never seen before, which are so close, that they are almost touching You. Thought is equal to movement, there is no difference between them. There is only one way to understand these visions It is possible because of calabi-yau, spontaneous movements and feelings inside myriads of spaces

CATACLYST MONUMENTS OF A RUBICUND AGE (Zhelezobeton / Tantric Harmonies) CD
A strange project that for a moment united Peter Andersson (raison d'etre) and Johanna Rosenqvist (ex-Institut, Koeff) in the distant 1992. Cataclyst's music combines the melancholic beauty of early raison d'etre and Necrophorus, harsh industrial rhythms of Institut and tribal-elements of another undeservingly forgotten project of Peter - Svasti-Ayanam... What differs this product from other works of Swedish industrial scene masters is the atmosphere of remote fairy worlds in which you smoothly sink into while listening to "Monuments of a Rubicund Age". Peter and Johanna have woven an infinite labyrinth of mirages, walking through which will be a pleasant surprise for both the fans of ambient / experimental / industrial and more conservative gothic lovers. The first edition of the album was published by Peter's own label Yantra Atmospheres in 1999 and was limited to 100 copies. This reissue has been made by joint efforts of the labels Tantric Harmonies and Zhelezobeton, it contains a shorter version of the album's last piece + bonus-track. Original photographs are made by Pavel Bourchenko.

CHAOS AS SHELTER DEAD AIR BROADCASTS (DTA Records) CD
This release combines drones with distroted overtones and hints of blip and glitch. Grinding mechanical sounds also add to the mix assaulting the ears with brutal yet melodic power electronic compositions. In addition the album harbors a few tracks that lend themselves more to the dark ambient side of experimental music with the same source materials as the above only with less aggression. This would be a great album for anyone still trying to ease into power electronics, the excellent mixing job allows your ears to hear all the subtlties across the frequency spectrum. [DTA Records]

CHAOS AS SHELTER DAWN SYNDROME (Topheth Prophet) CD
After releasing over 18 releases since 1999, Chaos As Shelter needs no further introductions. His latest work, dawn syndrome, was recorded in 2001 and is dedicated to the end of Kali Yuga, the age of iron, which is the final and most negative of four evolutionary Yugic cycles, the end of the world, and the dawn of a new golden age - Sataya Yuga (the age of purity).

Dawn Syndrome is an eight-track composition of ritual dark ambient crafted in the skillful way Chaos as Shelter is known for. The usage of organic and artificial sound sources which has been his trademark. It is a hymn of submersion and rebirth, of confusion, ambiguity and enigma, of the darkest moment before sunrise.

Dawn Syndrome was recorded at new jerusalem studios and Chaos As Shelter was supported by Vera Agnivolok , Helena Dorsht and an accidentally obtained presto home recorded vinyl disc.

CHAOS AS SHELTER / THE HOLLOWING HEAVENLY LETTER (Mechanoise Labs) CD-R
Appearing at times of despair and plagues across Europe, the flagellants believed in punishing themselves in the hope that God would not. Their processions of self-flagellation lasted 33 days, matching the number of years in Christs life, and served as penance for their sins and those of others.

The Heavenly Letter refers to the text that they believed was a direct ultimatum from God himself: humanity, failed and corrupt, had one last chance at reform before the destruction of all life. Denounced as heretics by the Church, they were persecuted and driven underground. During the Black Death in 1348, the same letter reappeared with an added paragraph that addressed the plague, and became the manifesto of a reborn flagellant movement. As times went on and the world didn't end as expected, enthusiasm for self-scourging waned and the movement dispersed.

The work here isn't easily digested and is often demanding of one's senses. Slow, churning drones collapse into clattering bells, wheels of noise rotate themselves to oblivion and disembodied flutes and voices accompany the procession on its way to absolution. Sound throbs as one writhing body, and then explodes into morsels of granulated flesh, purity found once again.

CHAOTICUM [Psycho] Log: Y (Horus CyclicDaemon) CD
Weaving madness through electric sound and half-crazed vocals, this first full-length release from CHAOTICUM unveils the initial peering beyond the shroud of uncertainty into the gaping night, calling to mind the powerful ritual works of COPH NIA, and the sublime melodies and haunting atmosphere of THE UNQUIET VOID.

Never fearing to experiment with new ideas, CHAOTICUM fuses together a plethora of dark genres, veering back and forth somewhere between order and chaos, to craft this first foray out of the curse'd lies of the light and into the black abyss of awareness. Will you make the journey? Do you hope to return? Then listen and remember... for destruction is the only true beginning, and stagnation the only death.

Included in the track list are two songs 'The Calling of Cthulhu' and 'Esoteric Order of Dagon', musickal scenes inspired by the mad writings of H. P. Lovecraft, in addition to other break-through pieces and favourites such as 'Ancient Hollow' and the neoclassical masterpiece 'Tykie-Soo'. So lie back, put on the headphones, and travel deep into the swirling vortex of madness and sound, for CHAOTICUM is not to be missed... or taken lightly.

Created to be "cultured" electronica, this first release by masters of "nova et rara" CHAOTICUM will appeal to listeners of ritualistic dark ambient, voyagers of haunting psychedelic mindscapes, and chaos practitioners alike.

Comes in a very exclusive 500 limited-edition digipak, with artwork designed by renowned artist John Coulthart on Rives Tradition 320g paper; includes extra pocket with poster.

CHRISTIAN RENOU & TROUM DISSOLUTION (Fario) CD
For this record, French artist Christian Renou (ex-Brume) composed some of his most melodic and textural pieces, four tracks united under the name "Himmelweg" (way to heaven). Subtle drones and shiny metal chimes join and spread in stretched flashes of Post-Industrial waves. The whole composition is a wonderful soundscape. After two joint tracks, (composition by Troum using sounds provided by C. Renou), the German duo Troum use a ritualistic approach to dive to the core of the strong themes they link to dissolution: life, suffering and death. All obscure and magmatic, their long piece IN-GALEIKON brings brown flashes from time to time, treated guitar drones exploring the resources of sadness in their most creative qualities. Comes in over-sized, fold-out packaging. Recommended! [Cold Spring]

CIRCADIAN FLANKING THE BLACK MOOSE (Radiotarab / Eibon records) CD
Circadian is a collaborative exploration between Scott Candey of Gruntsplatter and Jason Walton of Nothing. With this recording they have undertaken the surrealism of small town life and the curious realities that sometimes take root off the beaten path. The music represents this by bringing together many peculiar sonic elements that stretch beyond the material either participant is known for individually. "Flanking The Black Moose" is a unique study of the eccentric and unobtrusive iniquity that lingers in the ditches of the back roads of North America. [Radiotarab]

CIRCULAR SHAPING THE UNKNOWN (Loki Foundation) CD
This debut defines an opulent style of meditative ambient music and celebrates the pure sound engines of perfect analogue synthesizer music. Johannes Riedel created an elegant and stylish form of drone music to build ellipses inbetween sculptures blowing through the triangular center. These aural paintings uncover sacred landscapes of drifting loops and the brilliant use of guitars to set up an unearthly visionary wall of sound. Circular's music disposes a special principle where tracks build up slowly and take the period of concentration, of taking shape, followed by overwhelming massive soundworlds from outer states.

CISFINITUM BEZDNA (Monochrome Vision) CD
New album of Moscow-based project Cisfinitum is the experiment in more emotional rather than in musical domain. Deep and profound, it's touching the most dark corners of human soul and takes it to the imaginary otherworlds. This peculiar quality of Cisfinitum music is achieved through extensive use of soviet analogue synthesizers (ANS, Polyvox, Yunost-21, Formanta amongst others), but the spiritual beauty of "Bezdna" is also created by violin and omnipresent voices. Psychoactive dark ambient combined with melodic incantations.

Limited edition of 500 copies.

CISFINITUM NEVMENOSIS (Afe Records) CD
"Nevmenosis" is a collection of tracks composed by Eugene Voronovsky between 2001 and 2007 which were remastered by Andrea Marutti of Afe Records on purpose of this release.

Some of them ("Dissolutio", "Moscow 30", "Galene" and "Oskolok") already appeared on compilations published by Ewers Tonkunst, Monochrome Vision and EE Tapes.

The long title track "Nevmenosis" and the shorter "Hermine" are unreleased tracks which are published here for the first time. Contributing members for these tracks were also E. Soloviev, Roman Sidorov (Staruha Mha) and Richardas Norvila (Benzo).

Artwork for the album is based on pictures taken by Russian photographer/artist Vespa_crabro and is a fine addition to the music.

CISFINITUM TACTIO (Mechanoise Labs) CD
Tactio is the live recording of a Cisfinitum concert at the St. Petri Dom (St. Peter's Cathedral) in Bremen, on November 24, 2005. The particular (and as expected highly favorable) acoustics of this environment were consistently used not only as an enhancing effect but as an integral foundation for the performance, making it unmistakably tied to its context. Presented in the form of six continuous tracks, the album is a contemplative composition of vibrant drones, reverberating bells and synthesized resonance, gracefully evolving from the celestial tones of its start to the tellurian pulses of its climax. This is a piece of work that is elaborate in its simplicity, and it's with much appreciation that it is presented here today. The beautiful iconic artwork by Evgeny Kuprienko further emphasizes the relic-like qualities of this recording.

CISFINITUM V (Waystyx Records) CD
"V" is the aural extension of audiochemy method developed by both Cisfinitum members (Voronovsky and Norvila) in Audioform Studio during recent two years, using synthesis of classical composition, industrial aesthetics and tonal noise layers. Listening to Cisfinitum music, everyone can feel physically the exclusive aloofness and impartiality preceding the heterogeneity and time collaps. Long transitions between initial states, sudden dynamic outbursts and again desolate spaces where apprehensions are the only way to think. This album is notable not only by background contents but by sounding too: the deliberately reduced quality is remained in the past, agressive alienation changed to the introspective one. The atmosphere of sci-fi cinema of the 70-80s is back - cold, dark, mysterious but nevertheless open-minded and reality engaged. For those of you who like to use CD-ROM for anything labelled with "compact disc" logo, the nice surprise is waiting. [label info]

These are the memoirs of the unseen heartbeats felt nearby, the whispered ambiguous dialogues with the beings beyond our history books and common understanding. The sound captured here is an echo of two great minds clashing at those awkward moments when long and exhausting research of multi-layered existence is rewarded by finding a new lock to the set of keys given from the vast skies.

"Cloama and Blutleuchte rise anew From Wasteland Mausoleums with desolate, cryptic and evocative soundscapes of the world beyond perception. Further removed from the noise and power electronics beginnings of both projects, here one is to find experiments in candlelit rituals, analogicism inspired by early German electronic pioneers, voices and hauntings and crushing guitar. Melodies and raw noise interlap as the twin phases of existence or the primal creations of deities both wrathful and dreaming.

The CD is comprised of 12 tracks with a total duration of almost an hour of parapsychological exploits. Comes in a jewelcase with an 8-page UV coated booklet containing lyrics and exclusive art."

CLONING EXPERIMENT FAILURE THOUSAND NOISES (Zhelezobeton) CD-R
C.E.F. was created in 1999 in Pskov, Russia. Their first records combined cliches of metal and breakbeat styles in absolutely perverted and impetuous version. Evolution of the band processed on the way of noise domination, and concentration of sounds per second dramatically increased with every new recording. Peculiarities of band's style are emotional screaming vocals and fragmented structure of compositions. We can notice some resemblance with DELPHIUM, ATARI TEENAGE RIOT and even with some early Ant-Zen releases.

"Thousand Noises" - their last recording by nowadays - represents the distillation of band's energy. Very rhythmical, with cracklings of overloaded apparatus, feedbacks and sampled guitars, it splashes out all the hidden fury of Pskov duet. Undoubtedly, this is not a kind of music for masses. The album is released as limited edition of 115 hand-numbered CDR-copies in cardboard sleeve with technological film inset (every frame is unique). The album is completed with two bonus-tracks of remixed songs from the first demos.

COLLAPSAR BEYOND THE EVENT HORIZON (Malignant) CD
Malignant presents another rising star within the dark ambient scene, this time in the form of French act Collapsar. With their debut CD, Beyond The Event Horizon Collapsar transports the listener on an epic journey deep into the cosmos, forging a path across a vast, inky void, and steering a course around a roiling galactic core of hyper-dense stars and black holes. The sound is epic, expansive, and most of all, HEAVY. There is beauty and tranquility within these realms, but there is no light just massive, pulsating textures coalescing into shimmering drones, rippling sound waves, and billowing, multi-dimensional layers of powerful dark energy. Beyond the Event Horizon is without question, dark ambient in its purest form and one of the more genre defining releases of the last several years. A must for fans of Inade, Lustmord and the like.

COMBATIVE ALIGNMENT ...AND OUTSIDE GLOWS THE RED DAWN (Malignant) CD
Those that peruse the Malignant catalog on a regular basis, should have no trouble recognizing Combative Alignment, for theyve been a highly touted fixture since their first release, the Everlasting Sun 10 on their own label, Avatar. After several releases, including an LP on LOKI, and a 7 on Eternal Soul, it is with great honor and pride that we present And Outside Glows the Red Dawn, the first full length CD from this powerful and visionary German project. And Outside Glows the Red Dawn can perhaps be seen as Combative Alignments benchmark recording, offering 6 tracks that work as a virtual musical thoroughfare to a more dreamlike, illusory state. Deeply brooding atmospheres, where omniscient layers of drones and reverberating sound currents meet measured, ritual percussion as performed under the glowing, gloomy haze of a primordial sunrise. And Outside Glows the Red Dawn shines a dim light on a world of obscure origin, full of dark Germanic mysticism and unearthly sonic terrain. On a whole, this is a more focused, deeper, and fluid recording than youve heard before, yet triumphantly carrying on the tradition laid down by previous releases. [Malignant]

CONSCIENTIA PECCATI CULPA SOMNIORUM (Palace Of Worms) CD
The main theme of the new Conscientia Peccati release are dreams and their influence on the dreamer. A number of songs address this topic from different points of view. While "Golden Spider" describes the longing for something one only can have in his dreams, "Destroyer" tells about the driving forces of dreams. Most songs are purely instrumental, ranging from middle-age influenced tracks to ritualistic and martial drumming and experimental ambient-like tracks. Dreaming has often been seen as a semi-magic state. The messages received in dreams are interpreted by many schools of magick and also ethnic believes. While dreaming man was supposed to be especially vulnerable to seduction by demons. All this makes dreams a very well suited topic for the new Conscientia Peccati release. [Palace Of Worms]

CONTROL CONTROL (Black Plagve) CD
The nastiest, meanest, loudest slab of noise from Black Plagve yet. A rising star in the limited scope of the American p.e. scene (Taint, Slogun), Control will stand out as a bruiser among bruisers. Massive distortion, monolithic, brain rattling bass, and smasmodic frequency eruptions lead the charge, with tortured vocals bringing up the back. Add a gruesome, misogynist perspective and youve got a record that reaches a new height in sickness, slicing easily through gristle and bone to get to the proverbial heart of the matter.

COPH NIA THE DARK ILLUMINATI (Cold Meat) CD
The Thelemic Warlord is back; and after years of silence and solitude Aldenon once again presents us with a true masterpiece - "The Dark Illuminati - A Celestial Tragedy in two acts".

This is an epic saga of eight illuminating pieces trying to penetrate the core of the Darkest Light. Aldenon's characteristic growling coupled with Linus's bombastic drums and Karin's serene voice come together in a tapestry of ritualistic, penetrating and sinister ambiance. Included are three timeless classics in new and improved formats... Choirs, strings and intricate orchestrations bring about an unforgettable tale that won't leave any listener untouched; possibly giving rise to more questions, than it poses answers.

So what is it?
The Dark Illuminati - The Dark Enlightened....
A global elite attempting to enforce a world government?
An organization controlling world affairs?
The New World Order?
Or a Secret Few, merely seeking to preserve the Dark Light....?

Well... The Stage is set.
The Music begins to play.
But the Script has been lost.

CORNUCOPIA .C. WORKS (The Locus of Assemblage) 2CD
Cornucopia is the premiere sound art project to hail from the island of Puerto Rico. Claudio Chea and Jorge Castro have recorded numerous drone-a-thons on CDR which have been released by small labels from New York to Barcelona to Valencia, Le Mans and Mexico City. "C.works" is their first full length on the CD format, and to celebrate, they have asked for a little help from their friends. In all, fourteen other artists were asked (and some even asked in themselves!) to use Cornucopia's 37 minute track ".c." into their own composition. Two years later, this is the end result.

Remixers included: Omei, Needle & Sony Mao, Lasse Marhaug, Black Sand Desert, RGV, Ultra Milkmaids, David Wells, TV Pow, duul_drv, Andrew Duke, Kim Cascone, Critikal, Zanstones, & Francisco Lpez.

Limited edition of 500 copies. Comes in DVD case with insert.

CRAWL UNIT VS SILENCE (Manifold Records) CD
Joe Colley as Crawl Unit, creating one of the most "ambient" Crawl Unit works you will ever hear. World-sized clouds of staticy resonation, clouds of cotton and salt booming slowly out over the planet. Hammerfalls of texture. Sonic experiments at filling vast rooms. At times the audio has a sudden and disarming spike, the sort of sound that make speaker fanatics wince. But it stays just this side of dangerous, serving instead to rattle the attention, to send an arrow into the heart of whatever trance the tones have put you in. This is an old Manifold Label release. And it was one that we had a demo cassette of for literally years. We would put the cassette in and listen for pleasure and then one day realized "why don't we release this if we like it so much"?. The rest is history. Done in accordance with the Crawl Unit esthetic that favors low-tech printing and hand-crafted visuals over gloss. This is the perfect introduction to Crawl Unit, it seems to put a lot of what Joe Colley's Crawl Unit project is about into a general perspective for the listener. [Manifold Records]

CYCLOTIMIA MUSIC FOR STOCKMARKETS (Zhelezobeton) CD
Cyclotimia is most probably the only project in the world which has chosen the creation of a soundtrack to "globalisation" and life of the "consumer society" as their concept. The project members more than anyone else are immersed into the magic of finance and probably therefore has their creative intuition allowed them to compose the main part of "Music for Stockmarkets" with its unforgivingly precise name "Wallstreet Requiem". Today the whole civilised world is listening to this requiem the first cords of which were played on Wall Street itself.

The "Music for Stockmarkets" album with its radically experimental nature stands out in the extensive discography of this Moscow project. The 64-minute album includes 32 tracks divided into three conceptual parts: "Wallstreet Requiem" (25 minutes, recorded in 2004-2007), "Trivial Pleasures" (26 minutes, recorded in 2002, this part was the only one released as a seperate CD in 2003) and "Financial Glossary" (13 minutes, recorded in 2003).

The music material itself is nothing like the one heard in the previous records of Cyclotimia. There is no apocalyptic soundscapes of "Wasteland" times, no cybernetic hi-tech and media madness of "E$chaton", no cosmic downtempo of "Celestis: Space Ceremonial Music"... Minimalism, academic sterility, surgical accuracy and meditative ataraxy prevail on "Music for Stockmarkets". Then again it is not the familiar "idm", "glitch", "noise", "clicks and cuts" and not "minimal techno"... The sound of the album is chrystal-clear and warm at the same time. "Vintage" lovers have a wonderful chance to listen to the masterpieces of Soviet music production (such as Rhythm 1, Rhythm 2, Aelita, Formanta UDS, Formanta EMS-01, Polyvox) in pure sound, unprocessed by effects.

DEAD MANS HILL LAKES OF SACRIFICE (Bugs Crawling Out of People) CD
Dead Man's Hill has been brewing and gaining strength in the dark underground of the Belgium Death Industrial scene since 1998. Having released four limited edition full length cdr albums and a split disc, the time has at last come for Dead Man's Hill to reveal his full potential. With Lakes of Sacrifice, his best cd release to date, Dead Man's Hill makes his sound widely available to a North America audience, striking out from Canadian label Bugs Crawling Out of People.

Dead Man's Hill represents the pinnacle of the Death Industrial scene, offering a brilliant blend of militaristic drums, epic orchestrations, and dark sensibilities. Tired of computer constructed sounds? Bored of standard beats? Had enough of bands following simplistic formulas, conforming themselves to be clones of the newest trend? Dead Man's Hill defies these limitations, with a sound that is both classic and renewed; a sound that crosses, combines, and surpasses the subgenres, resulting in a tour de force of industrial, gothic, neo-classical and neo-folk. Lakes of Sacrifice is a powerful entity with a horror movie soundtrack feel; it is classic industrial in the old school way, yet will surprise and reveal something new to the listening audience.

The disc features the incredibly powerful collaborative track "Sacrifice of Subscription" with spoken word artist it-clings and a remix of "Legions of Coldness" by Nick Gorman of Fractured. Mastered by famine. [Label info]

DEADWOOD RAMBLACK (Cold Spring) CD
Ramblack" is the follow up to Deadwood's successful 2005 album "8 19" (CSR53CD). Over the past 3 years this Swedish artist has been toiling away, creating a new black ambient / death noise masterpiece and "Ramblack" is the result. Cloaked in a more raw and morbid sound then its predecessor, this album truly changes one's perspective of audial darkness. This analogue beast of an album layers the tonal prayers of demons and the distorted cries of angels, sickness and depravity. True Death Electronics. The soundtrack to your end. "Ramblack" features guest vocals from Norwegian Black Metal legend Maniac (Skitliv, ex-Mayhem), whose vocal approach on the song 'Forakt' shows the full range of his capacity. Truly one of the most sick and twisted pieces of sonic art ever recorded. Enjoy the disease!

DEGENERAL AFTER THE WORLD (Zhelezobeton) CD-R
Degeneral was formed in the Siberian city of Kemerovo in 2001 and has already recorded several albums none of which has been issued to present day, so "After the World" can be called the first official release of the project. The album sounds like a soundtrack to a mental trip through the lifeless spaces of the world outlived electro-mechanical apocalypse. First monotonous droning tracks unobtrusively bring listener's perception into a laid-back and meditative state. But the sound gradually condenses, saturation of sonic events grows and music takes mechanical features of sinister atmosphere of a desolated factory working for hundreds of years without human assistance. Thunder of workshops, buzz of power substations and clanks of unknown mechanisms flow together into united psy-noise symphony. By the end of the disc anthropomorphical assotiations naturally pale and give way to abstract cosmic visions, provoked by skilfully combined avalanche-like noise waves and looped melodic lines.

The release is packed into hand-made outer sleeve made of foil-covered material with sprayed symbol and inner semi-transparent cardboard sleeve with information notes. [Zhelezobeton]

Reissue of the mythical double tape-boxset released by LA NOUVELLE ALLIANCE/FRANCE in 1998 in a limited and numbered edition of 120 copies (L.N.A. 01). Only 90 were finally edited that time. All original material was entirely remastered and seven unreleased tracks from the same recording sessions were added for a tolal length of about 140 mns/28 tracks. Unlike to the recent releases of this French one-man project "Obir et Mourir" includes neither any singing nor pop-influences. The sound here is a great blending of dark ambient soundscapes, militaristic percussion samples and tape-voices taken from World War II documentaries. Powerful anthems march in front of melodic tracks and oppressive atmospheres reflecting perfectly the climate of the 30s and of the 40s made of fury, pain and tears" "Obir et mourir" is nothing but an audio and visual illustration of these dark days...

The two CDs come in cardboard cover with a 14 postcard-set, housed in a deluxe dark green boxset with embossed front-picture and bronze printings. An essential release.

DES ESSEINTES LES DIABOLIQUES (Malignant) CD
If Magnus Sundstrom's more well known project The Protagonist is DrJekyll, then his side project, des Esseintes can certainly be seen as a MrHyde..a more sinister alter ego, bent on destructive behavior,representing a liberation of the dark side and a more primitive being,that once freed from the bonds of conscience, becomes harder and harder tocontrol. And thus, we have des Esseintes. Based on a collection of shortstories by Jean-Barbey d'Aurevilly, Les Diaboliques is the first fulllength album for des Esseintes, and it's truly a masterwork.The result is an existentialistic inferno of various musical trash and harshrhythms, with clanging, mechanized percussion barely cushioned by amenacing ambience of cinematically styled electronics igniting thebackground. These are dark regions explored on the six tracks here,populated by stomping behemoths that threaten to crush with every step,and shards of visceral, dynamic textures that slice across the proverbialsonic landscape. And while Magnus' work has certainly garneredrecognition, Les Diaboliques may just solidify him in the lexicon of theindustrial public, or take him to a whole new level. Greatly appealing tonot only fans of old school greats such as SPK and Test Dept, but to thosefans of CMI and even some Hands material.. [Malignant]

A great history lesson in the short existence of des Esseintes, each track on each subsequent release just seems to up the ante, with one track more crushing than the next. a steady, doom filled procession of post-apocalyptic, tribal percussion, deadening, jackhammer rhythms, and dramatic, suspense filled atmospheres. When Armageddon hits, rest assured, youll have your soundtrack. Mandatory!! [Malignant]

DESIDERII MARGINIS SEVEN SORROWS (Cold Meat Industry) CD
Seven Sorrows is the sixth album by the renowned swedish dark-ambient project Desiderii Marginis, and a most eagerly awaited follower to the highly acclaimed album of 2005, That Which Is Tragic And Timeless. With the material on Seven Sorrows Johan Levin, the mind behind Desiderii Marginis, has dug deeper than ever before within the creative depths and so ventures even further into the darklands of dispair and solitude, deeper into the vibrant shadows of the human mind. Since the very debute in 1993, Desiderii Marginis has, with every new offering, refined and reinvented the trademark sound, and this release is no exception to the rule. Strummed guitars and dulcimers blend seamlessly with soaring strings, raging drones, the sound of twisted metal and spoken word. Diverse sources, yet tamed to an intriguing and alluring whole that slowly spin its web around the helpless listener and drags them into the vortex of dreamlike darkness.

First 2000 copies in a 6-panel digipak, artwork photos taken by the exceptional photographer Birthe Klementowski.

DESIDERII MARGINIS STRIFE (Cold Meat Industry) CD
The new Desiderii Marginis album Strife is, as the name implies, a sort of reflection over the rather pityful human desire to engage in all kinds of conflict. Everywhere and always.

There is admittedly a healthy aspect of conflict or competition the clash of ideas, ideologies, opinions and the like. But often strife takes the form of mere pointless destruction for no purpose. That particular lack of meaning is what this album is all about. War is a continuation of politics von Clausewitz wrote in the 1830s. But if theres no political visions to realize, no higher goal to pursue, no new beginning, no rebirth, then what? Guns go silent only to discover that nothing has really been accomplished. Old structures of injustice remain, recent conflicts are added to old ones. Does this sound depressing? I think it is.

The music on this album is not intended to sound like the blazing guns of a world at war. It is what it is simply because these kind of thoughts went through my head as the music was made. I have had no ambition to address any particular issue, Im definitely not trying to promote, or badmouth, any political or ideological points of view. Politics are firmly rooted in the present. Strife itself is eternal. The music is, as always, a strictly personal way to deal with and express the ever present madness of man.

Nothing changes, everything is new... [Cold Meat Industry]

DESTRUCTO SWARMBOTS CLEAR LIGHT (Public Guilt) CD
Destructo Swarmbots has carved a unique niche for themselves over the past 4 years. Their live shows consist of chaotic walls of white noise, improvised textures and battered instruments.

The tracks range from "36 beautiful songs" which plays like an condensed and intensified version of Fripp and Eno's "An Index of Metals." to the somber "saving grace on an 8 hour connection" which finds the group delving into more traditional melodic structures.

DIETER MH CARI SALUTI (Functional) CD
This album was organized as a collage, using chance, spontaneity and improvisation to create texture. Tape manipulation using voices and loops, field recordings of airport terminals and travelogues and electro-acoustics are multi-layered in a process similar to carefully controlled masturbation. It is a mix of low-fi/hi-fi, analog and digital with novelty, special effects and humour juxtaposed with serious, hallucinatory journeys into darkness. Experimentation within the boundaries of available technology is of paramount importance, although some may say there is nothing new under the sun, it is fun to play. Crescendo, power surge, orgasmic release, maelstrom and calm, exhilaration and liberation, soothing and energizing. The Use of Sound as a Power Tool. There are 4 main elements to the whole: On reflection the theme of the album seems to be a meshing of the diametrically opposed ideas of the escape from and embrace of the ordinary.

DONIS VACUUM (Autarkeia) CD
This is not the latest Donis' record. It was recorded in 1997, when Lithuania was still in deepest electronic music crisis. "Vacuum" had waited seven years for his real live in personal Donis' archive. The album consists of only one long track, that could be ascribed to "ambient' stylistics. Tough the sound of album proposes feeling of dark emptiness, it can not be described as "dark ambient". By it's influence "Vacuum" reminds "Coil's" ambient works that take you to the psychedelic trip. Extremely low generator vibration in record doesn't allow the feeling that you're high in the mountains to go out. The air is being crossed by toneless and icy sound, music motives are deep and sharp. Every stream of sound will work out as if you, the listener, are in a trip of deep emptiness.

Album lasts for 65 minutes. Its packed in a special black DVD box. We recommend you to listen to Vacuum only on Hi-fi stereo. Limited edition 499 copies. [Autarkeia]

With the release of Eidulons debut CD Idolatriae, we at Malignant are pleased to welcome another new project into the cozy confines of our slowly expanding roster. 7 tracks of ultra bleak, abstract atmospheres, with sounds and textures that seem to seep from catacomb walls and come slithering out of subterranean chambers. Certainly, this can be classified as a dark ambient record, but at its core, its more than just that simple classification. Theres a gritty, more jagged edge here, with tetonic shifts, deep rumblings, and crackling, climatic squalls buried under a bed of ghostly reverb and haunting tonal resonance. Fits in nicely with past Malignant releases such as R|A|A|N's 'The Nacrasti', Heid's 'Arktogaa', and even Caul's 'Crucible' CD. In elegant 6 panel digipak, with stark black and white, carefully arranged illustrations inspired by Taschism and Spatial art.

ENCOMIAST BATHED IN SUNLIGHT (Crucial Bliss) CD-R
Bathed In Sunlight is the breatakingly beautiful new full length from the longrunning Denver drone ensemble Encomiast, featuring five lengthy tracks of instrumental bliss from Ross Hagen and company that bring together slowly drifting drones speckled with shifting layers of angelic female vocal harmonies, lilting Loveless-esque melodies, ominous ambience floating over simple hand drum rhythms, dramatic dark pop with strummed acoustic guitars and Ross' deep crooning vocals...and more of the ghostly flute playing that has always set Encomiast apart from the rest of the drone/ambient underground. Fans of Encomiast's previous releases are going to be surprised when they hear songs like "Laughter In The Storm" , whose droning psychedelic folk is unlike anything that Ross has done before, a thoroughly entracing combination of droning electronics and brooding acoustic strum. And then there's the stunning finale "Evergreen", opening with gently acoustic guitar swimming in delay before a gorgeous female voice enters under a slight veil of distortion, like she's singing from the other end of a long distance phone call, the distortion then lifting revealing her voice in perfect clarity. A simple but perfect effect. The melody in this song is likewise simple but perfect, a melancholy hook that is gradually joined by drums and electronic drones as the song evolves, turning into a amazing piece of dreamy ambient post-rock pop. Fans of Encomiast's previous droneworks and the kind of evocative ambient rock that Temporary Residence is known for will LOVE Bathed In Sunlight, which travels the luminescent ley lines between ambient dronescapes, folk music, and post-rock.

ENCOMIAST HAVENS (Crucial Bliss) CD-R
This disc contains three exquisite new driftworks from ENCOMIAST, entitled Havens. Formed from vaporous clouds of guitar, gamelan, shakuhachi (Japanese bamboo flute), violin, vina, voice, flute, and field recordings, Ross Hagen and Megan Garland have stretched these sounds into infinite ribbons of metallic shimmer, twisting and swirling into gorgeous hum. The three tracks on this disc are extended works that range from eleven to twenty-five minutes in length, and drifts within the angelic regions between Andrew Chalk's minimalist explorations, the dream music of Troum (and their predecessor, Maeror Tri), and the bleary melodic smear of My Bloody Valentine. Havens distills the bliss of deep dreams and early morning haze into captured hymns, and is one of ENCOMIAST's finest drone offerings to date.Packaged in a hand-assembled, full-color cardsleeve in a resealable plastic sleeve. Presented in an edition of 250 copies. [Crucial Blast]

E.P.A. BLACK ICE (Dorobo) CD
Darrin Verhagen, in tugging on a thread of viciousness which has lain subdued and understated for most of Shinjuku Thief's backcatalog, was surprised to pull up a 42 minute slab of sonic violence which is as unmerciful as it is exquisitely crafted. Under his new power electronics pseudonym 'e.p.a.' we find a finely balanced tension between visceral chaos and deliberate nastiness.

If all the Shinjuku Thief albums which preceded it suggest the ghostly existence of a dark world, "black ice" delivers the map, the accelerator and the searing pain upon arrival.

Limited edition of 500.

ERTHAD GMA (Zhelezobeton) CD-R
Russian project Erthad, originating from Kazan, exists since late 90-ies, but until now still hasn't made any official releases and preferred to stay in underground, recording music only for himself and his friends. We have been endeavouring to change this situation for a long time and now we're glad to present this wonderful disk to your attention. "Gma" was recorded in 2002 with the use of voice and software noise synthesizers. If one says that the album's style is called "ambient noise" - is to say almost nothing. The disk has very specific atmosphere: this is a noise meditation, calm and detached from emotional fuss. An intuitive electronic pulse synchronizes with brain frequencies, rising and falling waves of non-aggressive white noise pacify thoughts, and constantly rustling high frequencies when listened to attentively evoke dissotiative sensation, dissolving perception in the sonic field. However, everything as always depends on a listener himself.

EYELESS IN GAZA SUMMER SALT & SUBWAY SUN (Ambivalent Scale) CD
"Originally, the intention was to put together a double album, centering around an escalated excitement with the idea of cities as new, blank texts contrasted with the kind of sense of alienation and loss evoked in such works as J.G. Ballards Concrete Island. The completed Summer Salt & Subway Sun works as a kind of survival or synthesis of these ideas and also as an illustration of Eyeless In Gaza as studio animal, contrasted with their (newly re-discovered) life as a regularly gigging band. ( The band has been off the road since the late 80s, but have recently gigged in Bruxelles, London, and Athens with forthcoming gigs in Italy, Iceland and the U.S.). The album thus neatly encapsulates two key aspects of the music Eyeless in Gaza are presently creating offering a balance of atmos/acoustic material and sprawling, rhythmic/semi-improvised spidery electric pieces. This has resulted in a heady blend of song based material juxtaposed with a distinctive brand of kaleidosco pic, cityscaping filmic musics. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it is the latter, primarily instrumental pieces which gleefully reflect the bands recent activity in cinema in Patrice Chereaus controversial Intimacy, and Jim Jarmusch collaborator Glen McQuaids poetic, sub Hammer short, The Resurrection Apprentice. After the plaudits attributed to the 25th Anniversary release of No Noise compilation (They were one of the great bands that emerged (from the) post punk (period) Alan McGee) Eyeless In Gaza continue to display a characteristic fierce independence of style and attitude with the release of Summer Salt & Subway Sun, issued via the bands own A-Scale label...."

EXALOT ANALOGUE FLOWERS (Faria) CD
This music is full of senses of 1980s. It is very analogue in soul and throws listeners into the star-shining past, making him forget about entering the 21t century. The soundscapes are created using real old pre-PC computers, analogue synthesizers and handmade effect-tracts.

The album has a very special, pleasant enchanting sound, full of inner light and positive emotions, full of harmonies of stars and romantic feeling from analogue past. Absolutely non commercial music, without any standards and limits. The release includes conceptual art covers and few cards with digital pictures by Exalot.

Limited edition of 500 copies

EX.ORDER WAR WITHIN BREATH (Malignant) CD
Compiles the best tracks from the out of print Law of Heresy cassette, live material, and amazing new tracks. A commanding show of force, War Within Breath moves away from the more atmospheric elements of the past releases and embarks on a brutal, more confrontational campaign. Twelve tracks in total, all with a discernable tension and volatility running throughout, bringing about near-frightening intensities through shifting zones of frayed, heavy electronics, deadening rhythmic elements, and lurching, mechanized loops. Swarms of highly charged drones and nauseating, flanged vocals add a threatening sense of hostility and aggression, growing and strengthening to dynamic, obliterating proportions. [Malignant]
