TOY.BIZARRE & PIERRE REDON - 'Saisons' CD (Auf Abwegen)
This collaborative effort between 2 French sound sculptors brings some of the most beautiful and atmospheric instances of composition with nature. The four tracks, some solitary works, some created by using field recordings of the opponent, feature subtle wildlife field recordings, detailed electro-acoustic passages, swelling metallic drones and amplified silences. Toy.Bizarre is the long running project of Cedric Peyronnet, who has specialized in location recordings often documenting a specific site and displaying an open ear to the beauty and potential of natural sound fields. Young sound worker Pierre Redon contributes electronic sounds and guitar drones to the album, as well as his wonderful design. Ltd x 500 copies in a digipak.

WILDILDLIFE - 'Peas Feast' 12" (Crucial Blast)
Vinyl reissue of 2007's "Peas Feast" self-released EP. Mastered by Scott Hull (Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed). Four lengthy songs of ultra-heavy sludge, crushing glacial metal, psych rock, noise rock and desperate howling vocals. Slow, sludgy and creeping but still unbelievably catchy and exuberant. Although this early material is more immediate and raw than the band's debut album Six, the music is crushing, catchy and totally spaced-out. Ltd x 1000 copies on yellow / black marbled vinyl. Comes with a dropcard that will allow you to download the tracks from the "Peas Feast" EP as well as a digital-only EP titled "Drongolet Demos" with unreleased Wildildlife tracks.
