ANEMONE TUBE - 'Death Over China' CD (Silken Tofu / Topheth Prophet)
"Death over China" is a retaliation of nature against mankind. It is also a dedication to our untamed curiosity for the essence of death and our secret death wish. In China`s uncompromising economical and social development we see demonstrated, how we - even with the immolation of our health, environment and tradition - are the servants to material progress. Though we are aware of the approaching ecological disaster, we hazard the consequences. Sustainability is sacrificed on the altar of egoist quest for happiness. We consume, we destroy, we thrive, we conjure. Using field recordings, collected in Nanjing and Shanghai,, Anemone Tube creates an unsettling yet intriguing, apocalyptic soundtrack with a sinister atmosphere and a depressive undertone - a unique blend of dark ambient, post industrial and power electronics. Mastered by James Plotkin. Ltd x 731 hand-numbered copies in an A5 10-panel folder with black & gold print.

DAS SYNTHETISCHE MISCHGEWEBE - 'Neunundvierzig Entgleisungen' 2 x 10" (Auf Abwegen)
DSM is now the sole project of Guido Huebner, who has been working in the medium of sound and found objects since the early 1980s. DSM have their very own take on the patialisation of sound and the moving around of sonic objects in the stereo field. The overall impression is of rawness and fragility at the same time. The music on these two 10" records is super-dynamic and fragmented and sounds very fresh and alive. "Neunundvierzig Entgleisungen" comes in a full cover gatefold sleeve. The records play at 45rpm (the label incorrectly states 33rpm). Features texts by Jean Rene Lasalle, painting by Francoise Vigot and layout by Stefan Hanser (Anemone Tube). Ltd x 500 copies.

OSEWOUDT - 'Gelag Van Zwartgeklede Kraaien' CD (Lichterklang)
A cold summer night at a cosy campfire that makes us forget the wind, and then... The sun rises behind enigmatic ancient rocks on the sea coast, the sound of drums, from the distance the wind carries an accordion, and then, guitars follow the rhythm, we stand up and start to sing. There is a new hope for Neofolk! The longing for pure, original and fresh folklore is now being answered. Dutch act Osewoudt bring straightforward melodies, martial drums, mellow accordion, strong, male vocals, dreamy and bold acoustic guitars. Their mixture of intense songs, passionate and poetic lyrics, raw and sober song structures, alluring melodies and their devotion to the the sublime, is exactly the kind of Neofolk we have all been waiting for. Artwork by Pitch Black (Anemone Tube). Ltd x 500 copies in a digipak with booklet.
