WARP 

CD

€15.90

"in den fußspuren von künstlern wie david bowie, iggy pop und depeche mode, die einst nach berlin kamen, um die legendäre dunkle energie der stadt (?) einzufangen, sind nun auch !!! in deutschlands hauptstadt gereist, um eine platte zu produzieren, die einerseits nachdenklich stimmt und andererseits ihr direktestes, um nicht zu sagen: poppigstes album geworden ist. "strange weather, isn't it?" ist außerdem ihre strukturierteste platte bislang geworden, angefüllt mit tiefen, derben grooves in der tradition ihrer 2003er-single "me and giuliani..." oder ihrer hymne "heart of hearts". gleichzeitig läuft da dieser dunkle unterstrom durch die platte, der als kantiger kontrapunkt zur glänzenden oberfläche agiert."

(ETRE) A POST-FORDIST PARADE IN THE STRIKE OF EVENTS

BASKARU 

CD

€12.90

"for going beyond the laptop clichés, that is, as a first listen to a post-fordist parade in the strike of events - (etre)'s debut album - clearly demonstrates: vocals, toys, and all kinds of guitars and percussion instruments unceremoniously blend in with field recordings and custom max/msp patches. under a glitch guise, (etre)'s music hides a resolutely personal approach combining melodicism, collage, lyricism, and a sharp sense of digital textures. ekkehard ehlers, tim hecker and greg davis come to mind, not because (etre) sounds like them, but because he sounds as unmistakably unique as them. the 11 tracks on a post-fordist parade in the strike of events form a loose suite of sorts, like the successive dreams of a restless night. the album also includes an extra track, "search and destroy white calligraphy", accompanied by a remarkable video signed virgilio villoresi and giuseppe chiesa. (etre) is the project of italian sound artist salvatore borrelli, who was first active in the fields of sound art installation and experimental performance art. a member of the collective ixem, he has worked with interior decorator lin-kuhn liao and ceramist fabrizio quintelmo."

01EK SUICIDE PREVENTION

ORAL 

CD

€14.90

"somewhere between psychedelia, techno, electroacoustics, and post-rock, suicide prevention is the product of a 14 year old pact of music or death. like a dual with the past, the record was motivated by an ineffable will to live. it is made up of a series of propositions for reasons to act. though musically eclectic, the album meticulously weaves a coherent symbolic gesture. filled with rich textures, warm and noisy acoustic recordings, complex synthetic algorithms, and haunting nostalgic melodies, this album addresses the organic sensibility of the listener. alexander wilson (01ek) is an interdiciplinary artist, musician, theatre director, and theorist based in montreal, canada. he composes electro-acoustic music, produces experimental videos, interactive media and architectural installations, and directs physical theatrical events in immersive environments."

1 MILE NORTH / COLOPHON / THE WIND-UP BIRD CONDUCTION. CONVECTION. RADIATION.

MUSIC FELLOWSHIP 

CD

€15.90

"named for the scientific terms that define the three methods of heat transfer, conduction. convection. radiation. is the third edition in the music fellowship's triptych series, which combines ep-length recordings from three like-minded bands on a single cd. electronic, minimalist, and post-rock music is much maligned for being "cold," implying the style of composition is more rooted in technique and complexity than the heart. conduction. convection. radiation. combines three artists who destroy that stereotype. 1 mile north is jon hills on guitar and mark bajuk on synthesizers. hills' ability to shape subtle melodies out of abstract structures blends beautifully with bajuk's masterful playing of a diverse collection of analogue synthesizers. colophon is the solo project of tarentel's jefre cantu. colophon's music builds off cantu's droning guitar work in tarentel, but deconstructs it, leaving only the bare essence. the wind-up bird is joe grimm sometimes accompanied by jeff smith. on their 2nd album, whips, on the music fellowship, grimm used his powerbook, guitar, vocals, violin, and horns to musically interpret a post-breakup voicemail message, creating a luxuriant dark dream and a revelatory song suite."

1-SPEED BIKE KLOOTZAK KEIZER

BROKLYN BEATS 

12"

€7.90

"montreal musician aidan girt returns with a peek at his upcoming full-length on his new "klootzak keizer" ep. drawing on themes and motifs from his previous work, girt is really beginning to define his sound here. on side one, we are introduced to the 1-speed bike aesthetic - an in-your-face barrage of anger and wit, bass and distortion. the second track "eight months stuck in a shipping container with 12 jehovah's witnesses" introduces the listener to a more pronounced live dub sound prevalent on his next record. similar to his work with constellation records' exhaust, girt lays down a deep space echo groove with a ska-driven bassline ricocheting across the room. ska makes its presence felt on side two, as well. on "will death stop lenny kravitz's ego?" clipped samples are juxtaposed with live drumming and disco horns to create an up-tempo ska bounce perfect for the dancefloor. girt closes out the 12" with "easy e white house dinner problem" a song reflective of the broklyn beats sound: broken, lopsided beats with a wallop of a kick and a pinch of breakcore edge! while not along the lines of girt's other work as drummer for godspeed! you black emperor and exhaust, his 1-speed bike material has grown into its own unique sound. incorporating his punk past with noise and production elements from his group work and a love of new punky breakcore sounds, "klootzak keizer" bounces with a dancefloor-driven experimental edge all its own." (label info)

1-SPEED BIKE REDUX

BROKLYN BEATS 

12"

€7.90

"montreal's aidan girt returns to grace our redux series, eps of previous remastered reissues paired with newer tracks. on side one, we've placed his 2002 (sic) 7" single tracks, early dubstep and breakcore experiments girt was working on. remastering brings girt's full dub experiments into the spotlight on "a pretzel on a stealth mission to kill the president." on "punk not dead cave good and strong", mr. bike drops his first real stab at breakcore, using his distinctive live snare samples alongside found sounds and punk loops. since that release 4 years, ago, girt has moved on to record 2 albums for broklyn beats, as well additional drum work on the last lps of his other groups, godspeed! you black emperor and exhaust. the 2 tracks on the b-side "from the time you're born, they make you feel so small" and "cats don't judge, people do" are both from his new cd "somebody told me life gets easier in your 50". "from the time..." is a dirge of epic proportions along the lines of girt's work in godspeed! only done his way; all drums grinding alongside noise and feedback. "cats don't judge..." is an updated electro stepper with a tasty fuzzy bassline, one of the finest 1-speed bike tracks yet." (label info)

1-SPEED BIKE SOMEONE TOLD ME LIFE GETS EASIER IN YOUR 50'S

BROKLYN BEATS 

CD

€14.90

"montreal's 1-speed bike, one also known as aidan girt, finally gives us a full-length cd of his long-standing electronic project. where his work as drummer with godspeed! you black emperor was punk and epic and where his work with exhaust was dubby and ambient, his 1-speed persona strikes at your nerve with an acerbic, witty amalgamation of all... and it's from a sampler! to be honest, girt does play and sample the majority of rhythms here and as the material has evolved from 2003's "el gallito" to 2004's klootzak keizer" we find his recording and sampling prowess matching his drum skills . on tracks 8 and 9 (two of three new tracks previously unreleased) we find him juxtaposing a long epic gospeed! drum solo with track 9's chopped-up, sharp neo-jungle. yes, cats are cool 'cause they don't judge! girt has also found a political wit unlike that of any other musician and to take it too lightly is to miss his astute vision. the same could be said for the music which, while electronic in nature is really simply cut-up live drumming with keyboards and spoken word. it is a new brand of acoustic music best heard on tracks one and two. it is also important to remember that 1-speed bike is primarily a sound system project. tracks like "will death stop lenny kravitz's ego?" or "easy e white house dinner problem" reaffirm that with a seamless mix of techno, dub, disco and ska elements designed for the dancefloor. read the liner notes and listen for yourselves. 1-speed bike's first full-length cd is a corker."

1/3 OCTAVE BAND TARAKOHE

FUSETRON 

7"

€5.90

"if youve ever heard of new zealand musician bill wood, chances are that it was related to his work with campbell kneales birchville cat motel. but bill has his own line of space rock/guitar drone/massive atmopsherics as well, and he records them as 1/3 octave band. woods music is new to my ears but its highly impressive. he takes a very maxist approach to drones, filling the pulses of his endless frontiers with shifting arrays of instrumental intrigue and ominously pulsing lights. a great thing, and on that thick czech vinyl that weighs about a pound. what more could you want?"

BLACK ACRE 

CD

€14.90

"if you dig deep back through hip hop's many evolutionary sub-species you'll find 1000names. their presence, a herald of change sharing vinyl releases with early rustie beats or hidden among tracklistings on trailblazing compilations dropped in foetal stages of the post funk movement. as (not so) unsung heroes of the b-side it was only a matter of time before this bulgarian duo's shine broke through the fog. following in the success of their limited 10" the painter/drummer combo of casio blaster & 99 mistakes have blessed the black acre orphanage with 10 tracks of funereal funk and blissful astro travel. illuminated man represents a more mournful, deep and melancholic twist on 1000name's trademarked poly-funk producing their most relevant and complete piece of work to date. from the outset archives of afro-beat science and spacefunk tribal percussion are raided to produce the backbone of the illuminated man sound."

"anton spielmann (18, guitar and vocals), sebastian muxfeldt (17, bass) and jonas hinnerkort (18, drums and vocals) had been playing mindless band battles in and around their hometown hamburg's st. pauli district when they got picked up by the folks at tapete records, one of germany's premier indies, in 2007. since then, everything went berserk. taking time off from an already punishing live schedule, "du nicht er nicht sie nicht?? was recorded mostly live at clouds hill studios in hamburg in the space of 10 days, in between school and still more live gigs. the album is loud, aggressive and alarmingly direct. the 10 songs are unlike anything heard in indie-land germany at this point. simply no one sounds like them. some might hear slight traces of early 80's avant-garde german pop (palais schaumburg anyone?), others wire or the fall, and yeah, current u.k indie contenders, too, but actually ... what the hell."

ALIEN TRANSISTOR 

12"

€7.70

"13+god's debut single bleeds warmth and love out onto riding melancholia. the plain words of markus acher steal the spotlight, curling themselves around the band's music, while b-side "soft atlas" showcases some of doseone's finer neuroses. his poetry calls the earth's axis into question over a track that pulses with punched-out drums, only to be leveled by subtle guitar pluck and vocal harmony. exclusive to this release are two sweeping remixes. the icy cold atmospherics of 13+god's "into the trees" are reimagined in dub by why? and alias , who hijacks dose's lyrics and completely resings them in his characteristic drawl. the other remix, "l'atlas flexible/von gradleute", is hrvatski's skittering six-minute mashup of "soft atlas" and "men of station".

13TH CHIME THE SINGLES 1981-1983

SACRED BONES RECORDS 

LP

€24.90

"sacred bones is proud to announce the release of the 13th chime singles collection. long sought after by collectors, the uk band only released a scant three singles in their time together before dissolving into obscurity. their sound-a merging of deathrocks dark driving aggression and post-punks sparse arrangements-reflected the realities of life in a small market town in the desolate political landscape of early 80s britain. in cooperation with the band members sacred bones has collected 13th chimes three singles plus rare never before heard demo recordings of "tinker man", "radio man", and "13th victim". detailed liner notes by clive ogrady tell the entire story-from schoolmates in the suffolk town of haverhill to tours with the enid, theater of hate, support slots with the adicts and dead kennedys, and an inevitable breakup, making friends and fans out of john peel and the groundhogs tony mcphee along the way."

"the long awaited 16bit 'chainsaw calligraphy' remixes are upon us, this is part 1 of 2 featuring the jakes and propatingz mixes. jakes, the founding member of the hench crew was an obvious target to carry out the chainsaw remix, being a big fan of the original and regularly rinsing the track out in the raves, he's given the track the signature jakes sound, psychedelic bass-lines and heavyweight percussion, watch out for the sample too, see if you recognise it. heavy support coming from n-type (rinse fm), mistajam (radio1) and hatcha (kiss fm)."

16 BITCH PILE-UP / MIKE SHIFLET SPLIT

ECSTATIC PEACE 

LP

€14.90

edition of 500. "ohio has been rampant on the ecstatic peace play lists lately with the release of a long player earlier this year by leslie keffer and a forthcoming split lp by emeralds and tusco terror. like keffer, who's moved to nashville (to be closer to be your own pet), 16 bitch pile-up and mike shiflet are both ex-pats of ohio. 16 bitch to california and shiflet to some weird small town in japan. mike shiflet we've known for years as he has produced some of the more interesting tapes and whatnot of midwestern out-ness from his gameboy label and from his legendary duo tour with burning star core/c. spencer yeh of a few years back. like the amazing beard he has sported since childhood, his music is a free-fall of acoustic wonder. he is also the cat responsible for turning on most of the world to the radical charms of three girls from ohio wickedly named 16 bitch pile-up. with a name like that you may have expected something just kinda funny but what made itself imminently obvious was that 16 bitch was really and extremely into producing a wholly personal thrombosis of noise improvisation. crystallized to the trio of sarah bernat, sarah cathers and shannon walter, this trio has become one of the most consistently exciting live experiences of the last five years. these recordings by both artists were done when both were still residents of ohio and reflect that time and space right before each other's exodus. they are raw and righteous and ready for you to take a bite." (label info)

16 BITCH PILE-UP / VERTONEN SPLIT

WHAT WE DO IS SECRET 

LP

€15.90

"16 bitch pile-up's side maps the terrain of a haunted cathedral filled with animals wailing while rusty wheat threshers outside try to carry on with their task. it's almost as if you're dwarfed by archaic steam engines disengaging inside the hull of a lurching freighter as it docks, scraping portside against a wall of chain. the vertonen side, 'astronomical icewalk,' is a six-part, 19 minute journey that documents the bubbling cauldron beneath the brain of one forced into anonymity for their own safety. the result is an audio neuroimage full of pitch and yaw, confusion and clarity, with an overarching sheen of uncertainty."

"on this cd he focuses more on guitar-based compositions making less use of electronic elements and vocals. this makes room for beautiful and intimate instrumentals in which the guitar is supported by rhodes, harmonica, string arrangements and a rhythm every now and then. several songs carry a rather lonesome feeling - but they are alternated by more swinging upbeat pieces with jumping strings passages. a one-minute long theme introduced in the first track reappears in several variations throughout the cd establishing a frame for the whole album."

LOCUST 

CD

€13.90

"the transcontinental duo 230 divisadero make stately, finely-crafted atmospheric songs that stand outside the bounds of contemporary musical trends. their self-released languorous drone ep has drawn comparisons to sunno))) and nurse with wound. on their self-titled full length debut, the duo of britain's matt shaw (tex la homa) and monaco's nick grey have honed in the wide audio brush strokes of their ep and have produced one of the finest blends of brian eno-inspired art song we've heard in years. 230 divisadero is simultaneously refreshing and reminiscent of classic acts like talk talk & new zealand's sterling & sadly underrecognized act, this kind of punishment."

23S, THE BOLIVIA

KARAOKE KALK 

CD

€14.80

"with the 23s karaoke kalk is putting forward yet another hitherto unknown project. and still the first notes already sound strangely familiar - not a familiarity that originates from a sound that you have heard a million times before but rather some sort of "heimatgefühl", evoked by the free performing of music that embraces all its varieties inspite of depending on consented sound worlds. bolivia is kind of muzak that reminds of french movies of the 70ies or in its best moments of phillip sarde, the ingenious composer of claude sautet's movies' scores. music like summertimes' crickets chirping, not as light as air's and not as smooth as brasilian music, bolivia is more of the dark, conceptual type." (label info)

2562 AERIAL

TECTONIC 

CD

€9.90

"this is the debut full-length release by dave huismans aka 2562. after releasing two of the fastest-selling 12"s on tectonic in 2007, it was a natural step to drop something truly stunning. if you can imagine a perfect marriage between benga or skream-style rhythm and bass with basic channel soundscapes -- you will realize why everyone is getting so excited about this album. aerial follows the two-track vinyl teaser techno dread/enforcers which are featured on the cd version, alongside the lead tracks "channel two" and "kameleon," both drawn from the 2007 singles that found their way onto the decks of everyone from mary anne hobbs, skream, kode9, laurent garnier, and anyone else with their ears primed for heavy bass, deep funk and sublime dub. aerial ticks all the boxes for a varied, multi-faceted debut, melding genres with a distinctive production style that is smart, inventive and entirely futuristic. dutch-born, huismans borrows his name from his hague home district code "2562" but takes his musical influence from further afield: detroit, kingston, croydon, and berlin. huismans' previous incarnations have included the dubbed-out broken-beat of dogdaze on the flying high label and more recently as a made up sound -- making serious moves in techno on shed's hardwax-affiliated subsolo imprint. if 2007 was a year for burial and pinch, then summer 2008 surely has 2562 written all over it."
