Limited Edition (500 copies), Experimental, Noise, Psychedelic, Power Electronics, Loops, Aaron Dilloway, Jason Lescaleet; 10" Vinyl EP
Oh man, It’s one of those releases that may well be lost to the sands of time, were it not for some keener-eared folk who recognise its absolute brilliance, so thank f**k for Amethyst Sunset because this is a real doozy, featuring Dilloway at the full width of his tape loop-morphing powers. As with any Dilloway performance or recording - which are almost the same thing, using the same methods of production - you never quite know what will happen, always retaining the ability to start in one place and end up somewhere totally different, yet never quite revealing how we got there. In this instance he starts out by grinding a spare vocal loop until it evaporates into the lushest ambient harmonic swell, and proceeds to squeeze that loop until it’s aching, swooning across the stereo field. And just as the loop begins to open out, he extrudes into a sludgy black metal riff, dragging us out by the roadside and leaving the loop to bake in the sun by the side’s end. Flipside, the trip only gets darker, sending everything down into a low register blur bubbling up fetid gases and drone clusters before sousing us in piercing, coruscating high end stress waves. It unfurls itself with such unique timing and haptic sensitivity that the only apt analogy is with a waking nightmare or the soundtrack to a severely warped video nasty. This is just so damn good....
Industrial, Electronic, Techno, Beats, Experimental, EBM, Ambient, Noise; Limited Edition Purple/Black Vinyl 10" EP
Straight out of the wet and hot city of Houston, //TENSE// delivers a great follow-up to the Memory album with this 6 tracks EP. Released on vinyl for the first time (the EP was originally out on the hype label Disaro as a limited CDr), Consume EP presents a new angle to the hard hitting EBM tracks the band has already released. The sound is cleaner and sharper. It mixes hard beats EBM style with more ethereal and atmospheric ambience of the shoegaze bands of the early 90s. Think Ministry jamming with Slowdive and produced by Salem with the help of DJ Pierre! Limited to 300 copies on colored vinyl on a 10" including a download coupon.

In 1992 lustmord and clock dva-founder adi newton forged ‘the monstrous soul’, a follow-up to the seminal ‘heresy’ album. Unlike its predecessor, the monstrous soul didn’t use field recordings from crypts, etc., instead relying on extensive digital recording, sounds sourced and manipulated from military surplus sound generators and spoken word samples. Expanding on the previous album which created a literal hell – here there is a more surreal realm. The five tracks continually engage the listener with carefully timed events that permeate the haunting sonic landscapes fading out into quiet yet menacing dissonance. Undeniably a master of sonic darkness, and established as such early on. Acolytes of ambient’s nether regions will flock (again, or for the first time) to the blackened altar that is the monstrous soul.
'Taking on Lustmord's Monstrous Soul is like taking on a heavy weight, it sits on top of you, weighing you heavily down' - Burning World Records.
Techno, Slipknot, Experimental, Electronic, Noise, Industrial, Abstract; Limited Edition, Clear Vinyl EP
Producer Croww's debut release on The Death of Rave label is somewhere between a mixtape, imagined soundtrack and demonstrative show-reel pieced together from a 'Slipknot' sample pack used by the band’s Craig Jones on their landmark debut album and highly recommended if you're into Autechre, Rabit or Total Freedom. The severely gurned and kerned result is the Prosthetics (MechaMix) uniqueto the vinyl edition, featuring the original samples painstakingly dissected and assembled in uchronic form to suppose an alternate history of the last 20 years of pop and subcultural phenomena, one where rap metal is dissolved and alloyed with the extremities of grindcore, flashcore, late ‘90s D&B and hypermodern rap instrumentals. Safe to say it sounds like naught out there right now.
Italy, Industrial, Techno, Electronic, Experimental, Noise, Dark, Cold Wave; Limited Edition (White Marbled Colour) Double LP - Ex Used condition
Italy's "Black Tears" is a project by Violet Poison and Giorgio Gigli (Zooloft). . The project lies somewhere between cold, post Industrial, soundtrack and mutated techno and EBM. Violet Poison describes the material as "neoromantic nihilism". Music for a dystopian society where all aspects of life are controlled and love and lust are forbidden. People become robots and a false smile hides the real pain inside.

Caviar Glowing is the most realised face of Croatian Amor so far. Over the three pieces that make up the recording a broad spectrum of the projects previous methods are present, but they manage to go further than they have done prior. Field recordings, voice samples, synthetic melodies and electronic drum rythms blend and bleed in and out of each other. Caviar Glowing is a club record. But rather than being a record to play at a club it is a record trying to portray what it sounds like being there, when night turns back into day under puncturing dance floor beats and in the toilet stalls where you can trade anything you have or is. Where you feel more than you ever did before and know less, the place where ecstasy and paranoia becomes two aspects of the same core emotion, the inescapeable fever of knowing that no matter how hard you dance or how much you take, no one in the room will be as beautiful tomorrow as they are at that point and with every beat morning is getting closer. Caviar Glowing is a record about being in a place, knowing that you are supposed to be somewhere else.
Limited Edition 400 copies, Field Recordings, Seattle, Electronic, Noise, Ambient, Techno; Vinyl LP
Ricardo Donoso continues to funnel this innate fear for positive, creative means on The Worm At The Core, which presents an important element of continuity from his previous journey to the depths as Scuba Death. The melodic strains that signaled the end of Nitrogen Narcosis on ten minute closer “Rapture Of The Deep” resurface to shape the opening movements of The Worm At The Core on “Paradox Of Finitude”. There are however subtle shifts present here, Donoso opting to look to land rather than water for sonic inspiration with the six tracks based around location recordings of thunderstorms.

"Menacing, blurry atmospherics from Skander, following up his debut for LA Club Resource. You feel a bit like you're bundled up in the boot of a car, your senses straining, the sounds of the city streaming past. (Rock Hudson in Blindfold, that's you.) Death By Handgun is a thumper." - FORCED EXPOSURE

Sewer Election is Dan Johansson, based in Gothenburg, Sweden. He is most known for his extreme and nasty noise on often limited edition cassettes and obscure vinyl releases. This album is an evolution in field recordings and voice recorded to mono tape. The record shows the development of aggressive blur building up to ominous restraint, tape speed replacing effect pedals, going beyond the mere "junk noise" description closer to the original idea of musique concrete, namely altering everyday sounds onto tape into a wholly other vocabulary. What separates him from the rest of the wall-of-noise-heads is that he is great at creating uncomfort and filth. To experience his music is like experiencing pure power and energy through subtle and restrained soundscapes of a world falling into pieces.
