vast, expansive and introspective works utilising place-specific found sound on this second cremation lily lp for alter. contemplating mortality, illness and the perennial bleakness of british winter in a seaside town we find zen zsigo experimenting with piano, violin, synthesiser and walkman tape players. layering field recordings of the hastings shoreline atop druggy, stretched out 303 basslines and snippets of spoken word there seems to be an overarching thematic of memory and reflection at play. from vignettes of crumbling glass and bittersweet drones through to sprawling, semi-rhythmical pieces (‘as a sea creature...’) it seems as if zsigo is trawling the coast for fragments of its former glory. the end result of his study manages to echo the work of yoran, leyland kirby and even jacob kirkegaard yet the rare moments where he lays bare his own vocal narrative seemingly transforms in england now, underwater into sonic diary territory. mixing salt-water soaked cassette loops with haunting, minimalist piano motifs and warped recordings of crashing waves and bird noise an intense atmosphere of ballards drowned world is evoked through sound.

plugged into the mainframe of the power station, antonio returns to the label with a barrage of loner panzer funk and mechanised thrash metal from the shadows of frankfurt s industrial district. its a record fed and nurtured among copper coils, rusted voltage boxes, plasma and ionised sweat coming out to breathe among power surges and industrial smog. four tracks from the heat of the machine. a total submission to your new electrical system.

daze makes a first appearance on torn hawk s valcron video label with a distinctive trio of adventurous jams hovering on the fringes of the dance. slums of grand central is certainly crafted with the party in mind, but it s a more introspective kind of get down for those who like popping at a slower tempo. torn hawk then takes the track to task with a tense revision that comes on like uneasy 90s electronica before decor lays waste to the surroundings with a slamming remix that pushes into hard techno territory while retaining the wistful tones of the original.

make no mistake, for vault series 15 the doors have been flung open to welcome a new act to the fold. theres very little known about mistake made. no records or releases exist to date, but they have impressed vault chief subjected enough to have them join the sequestered berlin-based crew. and in sublime compliance with the vault series creed, this debut effort from the shadowy outfit presents yet another set of functioning and frill-free dancefloor material, complete with a rusted-through hue of its own. on the a-side >wrist< jumps straight in with marching intent, complete with fidgety hat work thats both anxious and infectious. then on the flip, >ricochet< opens with field recordings tossed into a stormy concoction of ticks, hats and fuzzy atmospherics, teamed up here with one of those basslines that will keep you glued to the floor. >indec< then concludes in signature vault series style an ominous, growling number rattled with alarm bells and screeching, clangorous detail. its one of those monstrous slow-burners that leaves you wounded yet longing for more. all in all, a rounded first release from a new techno tour de force. this isnt the last we will be hearing from mistake made.

inside these airless sarcophagi, the passing of time renders objects once forged from molten metals as fragile as paper, so delicate a gust of wind could destroy them for ever. once deadly weapons now oxidised to dust are proof of the futility of man in the face of time. all regimes will crumble over years, all empires turn to dust…the more potent an object in its former life, the more poignancy in its nebulous disintegration. the shattered radio controls, the gun turned to a rusted block like a child s toy, the bullets corroded to nothing are all exiled from their brutal pasts. what messages are locked in time that passed through the obliterated decoding machine, who alive if anyone can tell its secrets.

nice price deal !!! xenogears is the name of the first studio project of marieu and lucretio, also known as the analogue cops. with this moniker they released a bunch of seminal techno cuts on the first chapters of their restoration imprint, back in 2007. tracks which were played by legends as anthony shakir, claude young and the suburban knight. now the xenogears are back with their first album *lost artemis*, showcasing their distinctive fast, detroit-inspired hardware techno. the album features a collaboration with their usual collaborator nomadronin (with whom they run the label bratha) and with the talented producer known as objekt. all the tracks are characterized by a strong fascination for hi-tech synthesizers and rusted vintage gears, a fast pace, and a minimal approach to live mixing. they have explored the subterranean territories between post-atomic noises and apocalyptic breakbeats, finding a way to equate machines with funkiness in an open battlefield.

the chasing voices collective returns with another offering of ambitious electronic music from the other side. scold is a forced march through the acid-burned depths of new york citys depravity. sprawling, syncopated patchworks gradually form a vision of asbestos infested warehouse spaces and rusted-out ruins, throbbing with the pulsations of technos transformative promise and wounded sentimentality. combative, brilliant and dynamic new music for and from new rome and beyond.

the alfur ep is the second in the trilogy of records written by individual members of the old apparatus collective, which will be released in three month-by-month instalments.
alfur, produced by a. levitas, offers a view of the rusted old apparatus universe from another angle, a suite of songs that weave together deep feeling and influence into a complex and very listenable ep, built for deep listening at loud volumes. alfur is a mystical, deeply atmospheric five track set, recalling the spooked ambience of third eye foundation and earlier tricky material, with gauzy layers filtered through electronica and hip hop’s modern digital mechanics.

chicago based fieldwerk recordings continues its spilt instrumental series with kill switch, a collaboration featuring minneapolis native and doomtree alum lazerbeak and bay area producer edison.

montreal-native tazz delivers new kanada three jacking and psychotic beat trax for an aggressive entry into 2012. tazz and bacanito unravel the threads of aggression in the lead cut >cosmic sex<. metallic heavy machine funk for those winter nights. >wanderer< is a late night ode to model 500, with waves of synths burrowing into the ground to produce a dark wave classic. cold, pure and supple. >mermaids and mermen< is is the tough club killer in the package. a deep tricky dub transforms into an underwater symphony of rusted hooks and fm pads… a serious lights out, head down burner.

2011 was a banner year for borrowed language – both the split 12 inch from jeff pietro & israel vines (blx-2 distance no object) and jeff pietros definitive >still< 10 inch (blx-3) garnered plaudits from all corners of the globe and were charted and played by the likes of surgeon, miles whittaker (of demdike stare fame), peter van hoesen, xhin, and many others. we kick off 2012 with this astonishing 4-track ep from detroits justin ivey, and if this is anything to go by, its going to be a hell of a year… justin ivey has been making uncompromising and challenging electronic music as dj adjust (and lowsh as well as theek) since the nineties, and he is also the founder of the beloved and highly influential cult imprint low res. while low res has always released records that reside somewhere on the extreme end of the electronic music spectrum (i.e. davros and ablecain) ivey isnt a purist - in fact, he is a true enthusiast of all types of electronic music, and it certainly shows on this 4-track ep.

**hand-stamped white label, limited edition of 400** four effluvial techno and industrial bass weight remakes of tracks from cloaks debut lp by ancient methods, justin broadrick, oyaarss, and legion of two. >versus grain< was one of the darkest transmissions we caught in 2009, whose rotten and rusted fruits provide brilliantly raw material for the remixes. its worth the cost of entry alone for ancient methods nine-minute viking ruffige remix of >r.f.i.d, the kind of northern european tribal funk workout that makes folk dance like they mean it. on a more crushed and crushing tip, legion of two dole out scorn-strength percussion and muscle tearing bass torsion on a remake of >against<, while oyaarss dismantle >sixmenace two< and rebuild it as frankensteinian dancefloor monster. to polish off the foolhardy few still standing, justin broadrick (jesu, godflesh) detonates >rust on metal< with bombastic halfstep force, giving a bitter taste of what to expect from his 3by3 album, due out next year. heavyweight.

the mole cooks up two slow burners for the warm northern nights. >nervous disid< emerges from somewhere between bobby konders and that old dance mania b-side you always want to play - but never have the nerve. thick fuzzy kicks, and jacked up toms - result in a heavy techno disco jam for the mixers and lovers.
>secret mummy< is a slo-mo romp into colins secret cookie factory, flavors are tough, fierce, and popping. 9 minutes of organico-inspired house music mixed with forgotten disco horns and old rusted cowbells.

4 track monster hardcore !

mr shine sees b. smiley (todd christenson) crank up the decibels for this catchy full frontal breaks scorcher featuring rave stylee 303 acid driving the tight percussive layers on the flipside, pigs 4 dinna produced by simo pushes the limits with some old school guitar riff samples taken to a new realm. pigs 4 dinna is a trippy excursion into sonic fiction

a-sun amissa is a new project formed out of leeds, uk by members of glissando. built on the foundations of the unknown, a project that encompasses minimalist drones, modern-classical movements and avant-garde tendencies. richard knox (glissando, the rustle of the stars, of thread & mist) & angela chan (glissando, the rustle of the stars, ten, tomorrow we sail) began forming the initial ideas in the autumn of 2011, moving away from the piano-led ambience of previous outputs.
