the 2008 machinefabriek album available on vinyl for the first time.

limited pressing on red vinyl, comes with download included.

first terrace records is honoured to present the beacon sound choir singing sunday songs - a project conceived by peter broderick and brought to life through collaborations with a number of portland-based individuals including david allred, holland andrews (like a villain), branic howard and heather woods broderick.
beacon sound choir is one of broderick’s most ambitious and avant-garde projects to date. utilising the harmonies of a 35 strong choir, sunday songs plays out with an almost religious undercurrent, the product of individuals inspired to commit a divine act of collaboration, recalling the rare splendour of a community in seamless alliance.

another set of prolific remixes of the belgian red stars over tokyo. his building houses has been re-imagined by machinefabriek as a heavily sound-based piece that escapes easy definition.

mere is a new project that began as a soundtrack and continues as an experimental, dark-ambient jazz group. guitar, drums and bass clarinet provide an intense and improvised journey into the abyss. the trio first came together to work on a soundtrack for a dutch tv documentary called visserman. having known each other for some time this was the first time they had combined together to write music and the name mere comes from the dutch word for more. each member adds a different influence to the sound, the modal finger picked guitar playing of thomas adds a sense of movement while gareth takes both folk and free jazz ideas to play against leos free rock influenced drum work. the tracks were recorded all in single takes with just a quick discussion of outline and tuning as a basic guide. gareth davis records on important, miasmah, sonic pieces, dekorder, home normal etc. collaborating with machinefabriek, steven r. smith, scanner, frances marie uitti, ryan teague, elliott sharp, ian hawgood and the like. leo fabriek releases on digitalis, home normal etc. and is also the drummer with the noise rock band julie mittens.
