CARSTEN VOLLMER - 'Arbeit Nummer 7' 7" (Cat Killer)
Released on Vollmer’s own label, this is a release with very little information and minimal artwork. Total relentless lo-fi noise over two tracks. Incomprehensible, dense and murderous screeching amongst thick layers of electronics and violence make this quite a difficult and claustrophobic release! A small note: both sides have the same track name, but are in fact different.

Two new pieces from Cloama at its most vehement. A savage exposition of raw power electronics, which has never been quite so overt in Cloama’s sound until this project.

Together with DDV and AMVK they recorded 'Gun', side B of this record, at the Club Moral studios. Mauro exclusively remixed this provocative, perverted, sexual war inducing song for this record.

DUAL - 'Klanik' 7" (Drone Records)
The music of UK act Dual is a mixture of mighty guitar drones with massive sub bass undertones and slight rhythmic structures that evoke feelings of total transcendence and grandeur. Cascades of tuneful layered guitars speak a special language of their own. Concrete elements (rumbling and squealing) and unpleasent feedback arise, added by strange backwards sounds, creating a rather eerie and challenging feell. This is highly demanding incremental experimental guitar music with a very individual style! Second edition of 300 copies on white vinyl with hand-coloured sleeve and an insert.

HAILSTORM / ARMANEN - 'Ink Parasite' 7" (Pylon)
Absolutely colossal power electronics - in fact, some of the finest power noise heard in quite some time. Like a cross between Con-Dom and old SPK, Hailstorm’s 'Ink Parasite' is a devastating wall of total pain....wonderful stuff. The flipside sees ARMANEN offering a piece titled, 'Ink Parasite' - this still something along the Grey Wolves line, but with a shriller edge, like totally solid Whitehouse or Sutcliffe Jügend. 1st edition of 500 copies.
The Polish duo HATI is a very active live group, using an array of archaic and ethnic instruments such as gongs, cymbals, north-African drums and clarinets, wooden trumpets, horns and flutes. What’s more, their music also includes found objects of scrap metal, plastic or wood. Their first release on vinyl presents two pieces of multi-layered gong drones, nicely processed for full trance effect and enriched with whistling and rattling sounds and delayed percussion. Above all these sounds, there’s a mighty overtune buzz with heavenly droning contemplation wafts. First edition of 300 copies on red vinyl with silk-screened covers and an inlay.

ILLUSION OF SAFETY & THOMAS KONER - 'Untitled' 7" (Die Stadt)
Great split release from Chicago's stalwart post-Industrial ensemble Illusion Of Safety and Germany's dronecore specialist Thomas Köner. Illusion Of Safety takes a confrontationist approach by opening their condensed program with a jarring clatter of fragmented film-noir orchestrations that are roughly broken into a nervous drone. Köner's approach is far more subtle, gently pushing forward a sublime drone and allowing it to fade into silence. Released on the occasion of a rare performance that took place on 19 September 2002 at the Lagerhaus, Bremen. Regular edition of 400 copies.

LICHT-UNG ("glade") is the name of a label, art and sound project from Gemany, with a very peculiar and rather dadaistic approach. The two pieces on "Kristall" seem to be based mainly on feedback and metal or glass sounds that are carefully put together for a strange-sounding trip. Side A consists of humming, growling drones, low siren-like sounds and high-frequency feedbacks, powerful and absorbing and very abstract, while never turning into sheer noise. Side B delivers a crystal-clear noise chant and metallic overtones processed with obscure effects.

Almost dreamy in that peculiar noise kind of way. The B side comes courtesy of label honcho Gerritt Wittmer and is three tracks of affected sinister vocals, looped and chopped chunks of low end distortion.

MOLJEBKA PVLSE - 'Lode Lvx' 7" (Drone Records)
For some years now Stockholm based artist Mathias Josefson has delighted the drone scene with his highly minimal excursions into drone territory. From harsh noise to soft and gentle ambience, the aim is to reach a basic level of sound conscience. In doing so the "human mind" and the "sound mind" interact to build a symbiotic entity. "Lode" and "Lvx" are great examples of breathing drone structures which seem to be derived from real string or wind instruments. Harmonic and mysterious, dense and aspiring... this is indeed music like a lode of illumination. First edition of 300 copies on black vinyl with silk-screened, embossed covers and an inlay.

Combined, they take you on a trip into an other world of low drones and high-pitched noises, crunching and gritting microsounds, surprising cut-ups, all very near and clear.
