dies ist die erste vinyl veröffentlichung der inzwischen aufgelösten pariser formation none, die abgesehen von einem verstohlenen bandauftritt nur sehr wenige spuren ihrer aufnahmen hinterlassen hat. sie bleiben ihrem namen treu, indem sie die intensität ihrer live-auftritte konventionellen klangfixierungen vorziehen. obwohl nach der auflösung der band im jahr 2019 nur noch eine einzige aufnahme übrig war, ist der seltsam betitelte khneï khneï thnacapata thnacapata eine überzeugende demonstration der selbstbeherrschung und eines der wenigen relikte, die der kurzlebigen gruppe noch zu schätzen wissen.

längst überfällig, aber hier kommt air lqds erster full-length-player.

&#8203,,&#8203,,introducing paris-based contemporary sculptor and music maker erwan sene joining the exponential unknown precept roster. gathering pieces thought of as little narratives for his debut release, not without a bit french irony around the concept of work, i heard you laughing wavers towards mechanical repetition and something more outdated at times. purposely slowing down the tempo to fit the apparent redundancy of an industrial environment and its steadily running engines. an eroded atmosphere of sorts, analogous to the smokestacks emanating from factory chimneys. accentuating the ambiguity of a wild thought which is hard to grasp. despite its machine-driven aspect, sene primary questions the difficulty to manage one s life stuck in a primitive mindset, making intuitive associations in a grid pattern. carbon copy music for the tangled minds out there, leaving room for nothing but sedated feelings.

fashion flesh is the solo-output moniker of john talaga, based in bay city, usa, whose music first came to our attention back in 2016 with the release of an excellent 7-inch on detroit s est. 83 records. he should have been in the radiophonic workshop, but he was in the wrong place, wrong decade. instead, withdrawn comes as his first full-length album and makes up for the perfect introduction to talaga s synthesis of original and plasticized melodic collages, birthed from the guts of hand built exotic electronics and various audio devices — built from one s own design and heavily modified beyond audible recognition or return. from torn memories of pleasant dreams to plasticine free jazz sculptures, wavey electro cuts squealing like rubber tyres and pop hallucinations, fashion flesh highlights the beauty of confusion and anxiety throughout the breathing and illusive meanderings of his tape manipulations and hard copy cut-ups.

joining the unknown precept forces are c.g.i. records label head matthew wei- ner teaming up with christopher daresta as pyramid club. being known for their t.w.i.n.s. and anticipation solo activities, cyclic obsession comes as the debut re- lease of the four-handed formation taking its name from the eponymous venue which helped define the counterculture and queer sound of lower manhattan in the late 70 s.

ixvlf is back at it again following the language of mini-album released earlier this year as part of our ongoing tape series. pushing it further from where we last left off, connor clasen’s vinyl debut reflects our ever growing desire to re-interpret club music in its most primitive and cartilaginous nature. while cleverly obscuring any reference to a specific period of time, involuntary movement shows a sense of the american-based producer stretching disorienting imagery over the existing landscape of proto-industrial — matching the visual interpretation of ailsa ogden undertaking the artwork by way of a new collaboration to be expanded over a handful of releases — where unpolished synthesizers and rhythm machines collide and bawl in a controlled crash. it is an exercise of existing in various states of detachment, a fixation on mechanical repetition and unpredictable behaviors through the haze of helium laughter. definitely one for the animals.

die vierköpfige formation stammt ursprünglich aus brüssel hat sich mittlerweile aber in marseille, frankreich niedergelassen, wo sie auch iher cyber-gothic stücke produzieren.

amsterdams worst kept secret makes it back to unknown precept with his long-awaited album and first solo output since the acclaimed divine bovine tape mini-album. inspired by an evening spent in a restaurant next to a car demolition site, eindkrak s long player debut echoes the distant sound of steel being crushed and cars pressed into cubes. all this noise, in combination with the taste of good italian food, lead to the eleven tracks making up for the aptly titled brullend staal — loosely translated to weeping steel. a leisurely stroll on crumpled metal sheets, the acidic hints of oxidized metal and the smell of gasoline. inaudible and distorted vocals as if smothered by the clatter and smokestacks of steel factories. eindkrak s first full-length is all about this disquietude made of melted and straightened scrap metal. a resounding and tumultuous din. try to eat some nice gnocchis while listening to this album, and you ll see what it is all about.

welcoming back our early label recrute maoupa mazzocchetti delivering the long-awaited follow-up to both his debut releases on unknown precept. emerging back in 2014 to then become an esteemed music maker in the inner-circles of the underground community, the brussels based sound artisan quickly established himself as a complete artist made of a peculiar and inexhaustible surge of inspiration -- always making sure to stay off the beaten paths while exploring the nooks and crannies of his disturbed and facetious mindset throughout his latest productions.

forthright, razor sharp techno tracks running at a neck-breaking pace that will leave you breathless, remain neutral is all about the urgency and the purposely crafted indiscipline meant to make you twist your body in every directions. spoke throughout the feral scratches of overworked drum machines and the whiff distorted vocal samples taken from a tape found by chance, france via belgium s mehdi kernachi carries on with his exploration of the danger notion in electronic music -- borrowing as much to the slower, noisier industrial music of yesteryear as the speeded basement hysteria of rave culture -- applying the scorched-earth policy throughout his tracks.
