The band produced the record in Brussels, working on the songs with Dan Lacksman (Telex). Love Is A Shield, the first single cut, has endured as a worldwide dancefloor anthem and is even a popular choice at weddings in South America.To mark the 30th anniversary of the album, the band opened up the archives to assemble a special bonus edition including a wealth of rare and unreleased recordings, limited to 1500 double CDs.

YAC jest producentem żyjącym na pograniczu Polski i Niemiec. Zapalony wielbiciel muzycznej dekonstrukcji, miłośnik dilejow i reverbów. Jeden z najbardziej uznanych rodzimych twórców głębokiej, nieoczywistej muzyki elektronicznej spod znaku szumu i dubu, popychającej słuchacza w odmęty kryjące się gdzieś na rubieżach techno, dronów i innych dźwiękowychekstremów. Począwszy od wczesnych prac przy tworzeniu deskostrukcyjnych miksów, lepiących setki dźwięków z róznych źrodeł (przykladem „Versions”- 35 minutowy mix zawierający 769 sampli w 35 min, dla którego ukuto określenie „mixing 2.0”) po bardziej dojrzałe produkcje dla labeli instabil, minicromusic, dym records na których YAC konsekwentnierozwija swoje zaszumione odrealnione brzmienie.

Mapstation - Present Unmetrics
Nowa płyta! Premiera: 11.10.2019Since 2000 Mapstation has been the moniker for the solo work of TAL Label founder Stefan Schneider. Schneider has won international acclaim as a founding member of KREIDLER and to rococo rot as well as through unique collaborational works with artists such as Joachim Roedelius (Cluster/Harmonia), Bill Wells, Katharina Grosse, Dieter Moebius (Cluster/Harmonia) Sofia Jernberg or Jochen Irmler (Faust). There has not been a new Mapstation release since 2009's THE AFRICA CHAMBER which had former FELA KUTI member NICHOLAS ADDO-NETTEY on percussion.The new album PRESENT UNMETRICS, is not entirely a stand-alone creation either. There are guest appearances by THOMAS KLEIN (KREIDLER) on percussion, MICHAEL ACHER (THE NOTWIST) on Sousaphone and an outstanding vocal contribution from japanese singer HACO, all deeply woven into the digital topographics of the music.PRESENT UNMETRICS offers a collection of radically subtle music. The guiding principle of the album was...
Olo Walicki & Jacek Prościński - Llovage
Premiera: 25.10.2019 OLO WALICKI / kontrabas, elektronikaJACEK PROŚCIŃSKI / perkusja, elektronikaLLovage to nie tylko afrodyzjak z rodziny selerowatych, zielonolistne i aromatyczne kłącze– LLovage to również najbardziej niemożliwy duet elektroniczny na kontrabas i perkusję. Starannie ważąc proporcje, jak podczas przygotowywania mieszanki ziół, Walicki i Prościński stworzyli formułę autorskiego organizmu elektro-akustycznego. W czasie rzeczywistym realizują warstwę produkcji elektronicznej live, wykonując jednocześnie klasyczne partie kontrabasu i perkusji – chwilami brzmią więc jak kwintet lub sekstet. Misternie usnute kompozycje i spektakularne części aranżowane muzycy dopełniają pakietem autorskich sampli dźwiękowych, w których wystąpili m.in.: Kira Boreczko-Dal, sopran oraz Mikołaj Trzaska, instrumenty stroikowe. Struktura utworów na płycie pozostawia miejsce na improwizację i swobodną interpretację kompozycji. Największą siłą duetu jest niezwykła wymiana energetyczna, która zachod...
Telefon Tel Aviv - Dreams Are Not Enough
Premiera: 01.10.2019 The return of storied Southern Gothic electronic entity Telefon Tel Aviv is as unexpected as it is impressive. Their three influential albums of the 2000’s—Fahrenheit Fair Enough, Map Of What Is Effortless, and Immolate Yourself—charted an increasingly turbulent and textured vision of post-IDM synthetic songcraft, until the sudden passing of founding member Charlie Cooper in 2009 ceased the project, presumably forever. During the decade since, co-founder Josh Eustis has performed with, produced, mixed, and mastered countless artists, from high-profile institutions (Nine Inch Nails, Puscifer, Apparat) to underground fixtures (Belong, Vatican Shadow, Drab Majesty, Tropic Of Cancer), in addition to his own solo and collaborative work in Sons Of Magdalene and Second Woman. But years of reflection and processing gradually seeded in him a desire to revive TTA and venture a fourth full-length, in the spirit of what they started: Dreams Are Not Enough. From the shudderi...
Premiera w sklepie: 01.10.2019 Chicago-based post-metal trio Russian Circles seem to release nothing but pure, body-moving gold, and their latest track "Arluck" proves once again they dominate the instrumental scene with their unmatched musicianship and songwriting capabilities. Kicking off with a mighty walloping foundation from drummer Dave Turncrantz, the song quickly opens up into a hypnotizing dance of brain-tickling licks and chugging, staccato riffs. Punctuated snare slams and an unshakeable bass line from the masterful Brian Cook hold down a steady groove while guitarist Mike Sullivan's spaced-out plucking is allowed to explore, leading to an exalted segment where the bottom falls out, drawing focus before bringing back the leaden assault of the trio's combined powers.

Premiera w sklepie: 01.10.2019 Föllakzoid began seven years ago as a trance experience between childhood friends Diego, Juan Pablo, and Domingo from Santiago, Chile. Heavily informed by the heritage of the ancient music of the Andes, the band has learned to integrate this influence with contemporary sounds of their times, creating a rich yet minimal atmosphere. For III, the band wanted to expand their sound while building an atmosphere with mainly monochords and reiteration. After recording and mixing the album on their own at their studio at BYM Records, they partnered with German electronic maestro Atom TM to flesh out the album’s synth parts. Most of the sounds he provided were atonal electronic sounds, aiming for concrete frequencies and sampled organic glitches. (The Korg synthesizer Atom TM plays on this record was used by Kraftwerk on tour in the '80s.) III is a four-part minimal sound voyage in which you can hear Föllakzoid’s musical language developing into something more ...
Premiera w sklepie: 01.10.2019The long-awaited fourth full-length by Föllakzoid isn’t merely a recalibration for the band. It is a multidimensional reconsideration of what the process of songwriting, performance, and creating a work of recorded music can be. Föllakzoid grows via depuration, aiming with each record to fill longer spaces of time with fewer and fewer elements. The creative perspective of the band has always been about unlearning the narrative and musical knowledge that shape the physical and digital formats and conceptions available, both visually and musically in order to make a time-space metric structure that dissolves both the author and the narrative paradigms. “We found our sonic and metric identity even more in these songs than in our previous attempts,” guitarist/singer Domingæ Garcia-Huidobro explains. Unlike past Föllakzoid records, that were done in single takes with the full band, this record took three months to construct out of more than 60 separate stems ...
Singapore Sling - Killer Classics
Premiera w sklepie: 01.10.2019Discordant, claustrophobic and unforgiving, Icelandic psych-rock heavyweights Singapore Sling are back with their tenth full-length. An eleven-track collection of macabre rock'n'roll scuzz, Killer Classics sees Singapore Sling return on top form. Throughout its running time, the record pools together the primal gusto of The Stooges paired with a (un)healthy smattering of Mary Chain fuzz-pedal belligerence and Suicide-esque proto-punk. More than the sum of their influences, though, each song is delivered with the same trademark charm - or perhaps, lack of - that the band have been cultivating since Henrik founded the project back in 2000. Outlining his mission statement for the record, Henrik says: "The last record ['Kill Kill Kill'] was about music. This one is about songs. The title of the record is 'Killer Classics' because that is what I set out to make: Killer Classics. Just simple, catchy rock'n'roll songs. As rock'n'roll songs should be. Of course." ...

The Souljazz Orchestra, hailing from Ottawa Canada, are one of the hardest working bands in show business. For the last decade, Pierre Chretien and company have been spreading the gospel of heavy funk, soul, Latin and African sounds via their crowd moving live show, and a catalogue of outstanding releases. Do Right! Music is proud to announce the newly remastered version of the now classic 'Freedom No Go Die' (2007), their debut on Do Right! The album notably includes "Mista President," the breakout single that started it all, a militant afro-banger that is still filling dancefloors internationally. Freedom No Go Die is a must have for any music fan whose strong humanist politics are only matched by their need for infectious untouchable grooves.

Siedem lat po ostatnim albumie, Efterklang powrócili z piątym studyjnym wydawnictwem ‘Altid Sammen’ – premiera odbyła się 20 września 2019 (4AD). Razem z zapowiedzią albumu duńskie trio ogłosiło także trasę koncertową i udostępniło singiel ‘Vi er uendelig’ z teledyskiem z udziałem Heleny Christensen. Otwierającemu album utworowi ‘Vi er uendelig’ (czyli „Jesteśmy nieskończeni”) towarzyszy obraz wyreżyserowany przez Andreasa Koefoeda (stojącego za filmem zespołu “The Ghost Of Piramida”), z udziałem duńskiej modelki i fotografki Heleny Christensen. Teledysk jest hołdem dla kultowego telewizyjnego występu Johnny’ego Hallydaya w 1964 roku. ‘Altid Sammen’ jest bez wątpienia najlepszym jak dotąd albumem w ich dorobku. Grupa wróciła po okresie przejściowym, wielkich przygodach i twórczych poszukiwaniach. Odważny i ambitny, ale angażujący się na pierwotnym i emocjonalnym poziomie album jest przesiąknięty eksperymentami, które są ich znakiem rozpoznawczym od debiutanckiego ‘Tripper’ z...
Premiera: 27.09.2019 Kodian Trio have only been together since 2015. The trio of Colin Webster on alto sax, Andrew Lisle on drums, and Dirk Serries on electric guitar has been touring extensively ever since their inception. The shared experiences of the road, studio, travel, evinces a group sound which is constantly shifting, solidifying, and disappearing completely - true to the essence of free improvisation. Kodian Trio's 3rd studio album - and their second for Trost Records, was recorded in one intense live session at the White Noise studio in The Netherlands during a day-off on a European tour. On this album the trio shows the core strength as a unit gained from their live experiences, and a band in top shape. Yet within the turmoil there is also a sense of joy, and most importantly a perfect dialogue. KODIAN TRIO is not a power trio per se but a band that combines free jazz aesthetics with modern experimentation. Andrew Lisle - drumsDirk Serries - electric guitarColin Webster -...

Kontynuacja interpretacji utworów z 2 pierwszych płyt Kraftwerk. 2nd volume of „modern composition supergroup“ (The Wire) ZEITKRATZER's re-interpretations of early compositions by electronic pioneers KRAFTWERK. In more than two decades ZEITKRATZER has created an astonishing broad catalogue from the obligatory (20th century avant-garde composers like CAGE or STOCKHAUSEN) to the unexpected (electronic artists such as CARSTEN NICOLAI, TERRE THAEMLITZ or underground experimentalists like THROBBING GRISTLE and KEIJI HAINO) – but hardly anyone was prepared for the ensemble’s choice of early KRAFTWERK pieces! When volume 1 was released in 2017, ZEITKRATZER founder and director REINHOLD FRIEDL announced that there'll be a volume 2 of course – and here it is:: from the opening drony horns of „Harmonika“ to the subtle guitar of the album closer „Wellenlänge“, the 4 tracks own all the interpretatory and aesthetic acerbity the ensemble is known and praised for. The first album made it immedi...
Fred Frith - Woodwork / Live At Ateliers...
Fred Frith is one of the most important musicians of our time. He was born in Sussex, UK and now lives in California, USA. He first came to attention as one of the founding members of the English avant-rock group Henry Cow. He was and is also a member of groups like Massacre, Art Bears, Skeleton Crew or Cosa Brava. Over the past 40 years Fred has collaborated with outstanding musicians like John Zorn, Tom Cora, Bill Laswell, Carla Kihlstedt, Henry Kaiser, Phil Minton, Brian Eno, The Residents, Marc Ribot, Lol Coxhill, Ikue Mori, Zeena Parkins, Derek Bailey, Anthony Braxton, Evan Parker, John Butcher, Laurie Anderson - the list could go on much longer. In 1974 Fred Frith released his landmark album Guitar Solos, a glimpse into what he had been doing with his guitar. It was improvised and recorded within four days and presented an experimental and innovative way of playing the instrument. Frith relocated to New York and quickly became part of the downtown avantgarde scene, something he f...
V/A - The Godfather Of Odd - A Hardy Fox...
Hardy Fox grew up in Texas. After college he moved to San Francisco reveling in the free love days of 1967-68. He co-founded the much loved cult band, the Residents, where he was primary composer. The Residents recorded such groundbreaking albums as Eskimo, Duck Stab, Commercial Album or Fingerprince and continue to inspire, record and tour until this very day. They aren't only known for their avantgarde music, but also for their multimedia CD ROMs and their DVDs. Throughout the group's existence, the individual members have ostensibly attempted to operate under anonymity, preferring instead to have attention focused on their art output. Much outside speculation and rumor has focused on this aspect of the group. In public, the group appears silent and costumed, often wearing eyeball helmets, top hats and tails—a long-lasting costume now recognized as its signature iconography. In 2015 Hardy retired from the band, and two years later identified himself as the band's co-founder and prima...
The Residents are an American art collective best known for their over 60 studio albums that were recorded over a period of over forty years. They also created some outstanding multimedia works, mainly three CD ROM projects and ten DVDs. Working as an anonymous collective, their identitites were kept secret until in 2017 Hardy Fox revealed himself as their primary composer. Hardy died in October 2018, but the group continue to record and perform. The PAL TV LP was an obscure release. It appeared on Cabaret Voltaire's Doublevision label in the UK and was released in 1985 in two formats, black and red vinyl. Side One had four tracks from the Mole Show on it. Side Two was an excerpt from Vileness Fats. It was an album mainly created to promote the release of a long form video released in the UK. In its original form, the album has no exclsuive music on it that isn't available anywhere else. For this re-issue, we have added The Mole Show live at The House. Full tracklist: 1. Smack Your Lip...

Reissue, originally released in 1988 on cassette only. Imagine if you could listen to the nervous whirling of methane and helium, that’s what this album sounds like – at least in the mind of experimentalist Conrad Schnitzler. The Berlin artist first released these recordings on a small American cassette label. An uncommonly rhythmical vortex, we would suggest. Now available for the very first time on CD and vinyl!

Blanck Mass - Animated Violence Mild
"In this post-industrial, post-enlightenment religion of ourselves, we have manifested a serpent of consumerism which now coils back upon us. It seduces us with our own bait as we betray the better instincts of our nature and the future of our own world. We throw ourselves out of our own garden. We poison ourselves to the edges of an endless sleep.Animated Violence Mild was written throughout 2018, at Blanck Mass' studio outside of Edinburgh. These eight tracks are the diary of a year of work steeped in honing craft, self-discovery, and grief - the latter of which reared its head at the final hurdle of producing this record and created a whole separate narrative: grief, both for what I have lost personally, but also in a global sense, for what we as a species have lost and handed over to our blood-sucking counterpart, consumerism, only to be ravaged by it.Animated Violence Mild by Blanck Mass...
Sirom - A Universe that Roasts Blossoms ...
Premiera: 30-08-2019 Slovenian ‘imaginary folk’ instrumental trio return with a kaleidoscopic third album. Handmade and global instrumentation meets fearless sound exploration. ‘I feel many musicians fear seeing a melody fall apart, but I find it enjoyable. It is only then that it can turn into something new’ – Ana Kravanja ‘We don’t want to play something that sounds like it already exists’ – Samo Kutin There’s a sequence in Memoryscapes, a lovely short film, in which Širom set about fashioning music from a pile of pots, pans, saucepan lids and empty cans of supermarket lager on the kitchen table. It’s the band in microcosm: cracked, insistent beats, rhythm chasing rhythm, a deadly serious playfulness, and the intimacy of close friendship undercut by the sense of emergency of a flashing torch. Širom are all about the head and the hand, and the dark that always pushes against the light. We’re around another kitchen table now, and the three members of the band – Ana Kravanja, Samo...

Line Spectrum is the new project by Oleg Puzan from Ukraine, who also released some excellent works on the Cryo Chamber label as Dronny Darko. Line Spectrum is a sound art project that is created to expand sonic boundaries through sound manipulations, often in a form of severe minimalism using a vast palette of microscopic sounds forming an immersive auditory monsoon. Slowly evolving textures mixed with field recordings and synthesized particles suits as a perfect perception environment for a listener. His works often reflect the state of tranquility through blending together deep ambiences, musique concrète, avant-garde elements and silence. Line Spectrum's compositions require a focused listening experience and is often best experienced on using hight quality headphones. Bruma is an album of exploration. Somewhere cold and safe. Where nature is pure and expands as far as the eyes can see. Immersive drones combined with textured particles and field recording pieces create a place to ...
Płyta jest hołdem dla wybitnego wrocławskiego twórcy – Lecha Janerki. Znajduje się na niej kilkanaście kompozycji wrocławskiego muzyka. Bas, różnie wykorzystywany, nawarstwiany i przetwarzany jest jedynym instrumentem na płycie. Ten odważny pomysł powstał dlatego, że Lech gra i tworzy właśnie na gitarze basowej. W tym kontekście nie dziwi, że nagraniem Tributu zajęło się dwoje doświadczonych basistów: Małgorzata Tekiel (m.in. Będzie Dobrze, Pudelsi, Pochwalone) i Piotr Pawłowski ( m.in. Made in Poland, The Shipyard). Zaprosili do współpracy wybitnych wokalistów i wokalistki. Wszyscy twórcy tego projektu są wielbicielami twórczości Janerki.

Premiera: 12.07.2019 An album title with not one, but two exclamation marks, meaning something akin to “what a palaver”as it primes the listener for songs like “Cinemascope”. Themes such as personal injuries (“Ich bin cool”), betrayal (“Mes copines”), personality deficiencies brought on by drug abuse (“Methedrine”), rage (“Hass-Satellit”), inflated opinions of oneself (“Brezel says”), suicide (“Le Spleen”), grief (“Dancing with a memory") and souls in torment ("Elektroschocktherapie") are presented in widescreen format in and often in the most entertaining fashion. Françoise Cactus apparently once said of herself: "I am a linguistic artist who can live with the laughs". Which says it all really, although Stereo Total’s penchant for wordplay is not in evidence in all of the lyrics on this record. Many tracks here echo the rather more sombre, desperate songs she wrote for her first band "Les Lolitas". Nevertheless, the anarchic humour which we have come to associate with Stereo Tota...
Eraldo Bernocchi & FM Einheit & Jo Quail...
Experimental Italian guitarist, electro-producer and sound designer Eraldo Bernocchi joins forces with percussionist FM Einheit (a founder of the influential German industrial group Einstürzende Neubauten) and London-based cellist Jo Quail on Rosebud, a compelling mix of tranquil ambient sounds and pummeling industrial onslaughts. From the opening “Bloom,” an 11-minute suite that travels from evocative ambiance to caustic crescendo, to the closing theme “The Inquirer,” which emerges gradually over a haunting drone and builds to a hellacious distortion-laced guitar climax, Rosebud carries a dark, foreboding undercurrent while showcasing the trio’s uncanny group-think in the throes of organized chaos. “What really intrigues me is to blend together different elements and observe what the alchemy of sound and suggestions is bringing up,” Bernocchi explained. “It is really difficult for me to imagine a goal or an objective when I start to work on an album. I like certain people, certain a...
Płyta dostępna od 12.07.2019 The dark, impossibly intense dirges, industrial noise onslaughts and banshee-like free jazz wailing heard throughout Anguish could be an imposing soundtrack for a dystopian, post-apocalyptic future. This powerhouse, inter-generational offering and RareNoiseRecords debut brings together an unlikely gathering of members of the New Jersey-based experimental hip-hop group dälek (electronic musician and vocalist Will Brooks with guitarist-keyboardist Mike Mare), the Swedish free jazz group Fire! (tenor saxophonist Mats Gustafsson, drummer Andreas Werliin) and the classic '70s German krautrock band Faust (keyboardist and 68-year-old founding member Hans Joachim Irmler). Recorded in just three days during the summer of 2018 at Faust's Scheer Studios, located in a former factory perched on the banks of the Danube in Swabia, Germany near the Swiss border, ANGUISH stands as a hard-hitting manifesto for the next evolution in the hip-hop legacy. Irmler explains that ...

Płyta dostępna od 12.07.2019These are the final studio recordings made under the name Pansonic recorded at Mika's home studio in Berlin 2005 - 2011 and subsequently edited into this album format by Mika in 2015. The twelve tracks are simply titled Atomin Paluu Parts 1 to 12 and total just under 67 mins of the classic Pansonic sound. The film is a Finnish production; as a film soundtrack these recordings were bound up in a complex series of delays in the release of the film - which documents the building of the first nuclear power plant since the Chernobyl meltdown in 1986. The film won the 2015 Nordic Dox Award at the CPH:DOX festival in Copenhagen. It is scheduled for TV showings via ARTE(France), WDR/ZDF(Germany), YLE (Finland) and the film will be widely distributed in art house cinemas throughout the world. The soundtrack itself brought the greatest recognition and went on to win Best Soundtrack at this year's Jussi Awards Festival (known as the Finland's Oscars).1 ATOMIN PALUU PAR...

Premiera: 12.07.2019Hermann Nitsch’s String Quartet No.2 in six movements for 2 violins, viola, and violoncello, transcribed by Michael Mautner and performed by the Viennese Koehne Quartet. Recorded during the exhibition NITSCH. Spaces of Color at the ALBERTINA Museum, Vienna on the 29th May 2019.The Koehne Quartet: Joanna Lewis – 1. ViolineAnne Harvey-Nagl – 2. ViolineLena Fankhauser – ViolaMara Achleitner – VioloncelloOut on July 12th 2019Hermann Nitsch does not write down his music in musical notation, but divides the individual movements into time segments of 1 minute duration and precisely defines sound events, durations, dynamics and actions with words or signs. His instructions are e.g.: deep sound, whole tone cluster, D minor, F major or noise. In the 3rd movement of the 1st quartet there were 4 Schuhplattler simultaneously; a very unusual but fascinating constellation. The transcription on this work was also fascinating for Michael Mautner. You could play from his scores yours...
Fire! with Jim O'Rourke - Unreleased?
Płyta dostępna od 12.07.2019 On their second album this excellent Swedish supergroup teams up with none other than the legendary Jim O´Rourke for a stunning slice of hypnotic jazz psychedelia and sonic mayhem of the subtle sort. Recorded in Tokyo last September, ”Unreleased?” boasts four tracks, three of them between 9 and 18 minutes long, giving ample time for those evolving, warm grooves to settle or work their way towards epic conclusions.

Dostępna od 12.07.2019 Fire! is where Mats Gustafsson (The Thing), Johan Berthling (Tape) and drummer Andreas Werliin (Wildbirds & Peacedrums) go to stretch their instrumental skills and collaborate with prestigious guests like Jim O’Rourke and Oren Ambarchi. Fire! Orchestra takes the project to the next level: a sonic behemoth comprising 28 members from Swedish jazz, improv and avant rock that should be unmanageable, but turns out to possess the elegance and lucidity of the righteous free jazz big bands of the past. Charlie Haden’s Liberation Orchestra. Carla Bley’s “Escalator Over the Hill”. Centipede. Sun Ra’s “Space Is The Place”. Chris McGregor’s Brotherhood Of Breath. Freddie Hubbard & Ilhan Mimaroglu’s “Sing Me A Song Of Songmy”.All these classic landmarks come to mind as you listen to their monumental “Exit!”. “Exit!” was recorded in front of an over enthusiastic audience in January 2012 at the headquarters of Fylkingen, the legendary Stockholm avant garde music cent...
Dostępna od 12.07.2019Fire! originated as the trio of Swedish improv masters Mats Gusfasson (sax), Johan Berthling (bass) and Andreas Werliin (drums). None of them are what you could call jazz purists; they all play in many different groups and contexts, including The Thing (Gustafsson), experimental folk-electronica outfit Tape (Berthling), and skewed pop unit Wildbirds And Peacedrums (Werliin). Around 2011 the idea sprang up to expand a massive orchestra around the core trio, featuring the cream of Scandinavian jazz, improvisation and avant rock players and vocalists. After playing rare shows a handful of times a year, culminating with a number of ecstatic Scandinavian shows this January, this incredible mass ensemble took one day off to record their first studio recording in Gothenburg. Following last year’s live debut ”Exit”, ”Enter” might surprise with its slow, treacly funk dynamics, running through a kaleidoscope of moods, rhythms, textures and dynamics. Muscular rock rhythms fl...
Premiera: 12.07.2019 Their first two albums, Exit (2013) and Enter (2014), presented us with sizable and ambitious line-ups of 28 musicians. Ritual (2016) saw it reduced to 21 and with Arrival it's been trimmed down to a "mere" 14, with the core trio of Fire! (Mats Gustafsson, Johan Berthling and Andreas Werliin) and the two singers Mariam Wallentin and Sofia Jernberg being the only constant members since the beginning. Apart from this reduction, the main line-up difference is the introduction of a string quartet. This "cleanup" has worked wonders, keeping the rhythm and horn sections to their bare necessities, with the string quartet expanding the canvas and bringing a new, exciting dimension to the table. And on top of their game; the two powerful and sublime singers, quite different, but still blending perfectly. We also have to mention drummer and producer Andreas Werliin for his work in the audio department; rarely have we heard such a detailed, warm, deep and dynamic mix from ...

Nowa płyta kanadyjskich post-punkowców! 06/2019 Dumb are good at plenty of things, but relaxing isn’t one of them. The Vancouver four-piece write feverish tunes at a frantic pace, delivering their post-punk songs in two-minute blasts of wiry riffs and indignant social critiques. Less than a year since they signed to Mint Records for 2018’s Seeing Green, they’re already back with a new full-length, as Club Nites will be released on June 7. Club Nites picks up right where Seeing Green left off, with singer-guitarist Franco Rossino’s brash, half-spoken shouts set against his bandmates’ stripped-down, sinewy arrangements. Guitarist Nick Short is as comfortable with austere rock riffs as he is with timeless pop progressions, while bassist Shelby Vredik and drummer Pipé Morelli are relentless in their pummelling rhythms. The LP has the energy of a raw nerve: the songs are dry and in-your-face, with crisp production that leaves every squeal of feedback and hollered refrain exposed. Curvebal...
Premiera: 26.06.2019 The NYC based duo of Rick Brown and Che Chen, creates hypnotic, pulsing music that weaves an ecstatic line from raw electric blues, Arabic modes and entrancing folk minimalism back to the streets of New York. Instrumentation expanded, palette widened and canvas doubled. The third album from these acclaimed NYC mainstays adds concise rockers, fuller orchestrations and mysterious textures to the band’s long, odd/deep grooves and microtonal tunings. Having emerged as a vibrant musical force with their previous effort WMMPRR (tak:til/Thin Wrist), 75 Dollar Bill have spent the last few years bringing their music to new places and people, delivering what NYC locals have known for years, with their dedication to performance in venues of all shapes and sizes. The fruits of this work can be heard here on their expansive new double LP I Was Real. The album, its title’s origin a jumbled misremembering of the lesser-known Motown song “He Was Really Saying Something”, is 75...
Premiera: 26.06.2019Park Jiha’s debut album “Communion” – released internationally by tak:til last year – drew well deserved attention to the young Korean instrumentalist/composer’s vivid soundworld. The widely acclaimed album graced 2018 critics lists at The WIRE, Pop Matters and The Guardian. Her new album “Philos”– which she calls an evocation of her “love for time, space and sound” –is every bit as inventive, elegant and transcendent as her debut. While Park Jiha’s music is often contextualized by its kinship with minimalism, ambient and chamber jazz, her creative backbone is Korean traditional music. Jiha formally studied both its theory and practice and has mastered three of its most emblematic instruments: “I play a traditional Korean instrument called piri which is like an oboe. Piri is a double reed bamboo flute so it can be quite loud. But I also choose saenghwang (mouth organ), yanggeum (hammered dulcimer), percussion or vocal according to the type of music I’m composing. ...
Premiera: 25.06.2019From the perennial layers of the permafrost, Glacial Movements brings out the music of the talented Dutch artist Amandus Schaap aka Equal Stones. From the first experimental outing - exploring the possibilities of production work in 2012's "Temporal Displacement", the project Equal Stones has always been about getting to know the hidden places within the subconscious. Progressing over the years and finding a consistent stylistic sound on the two LP's "Transgression" and "Hans of a Murderer" the project turned towards very textural induced drone ambient, in which it's still firmly rooted. With "Below Zero", the first sittings of writing and producing were specifically designed for Glacial Movements. The record is icy cold, thickly layered with textures - reminiscent of heavy, slow moving, glacial scenery. A dark, sometimes brooding atmosphere combines these elements into an intense ride which was masterfully mastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri, further accentuating th...
