M. KOURIE - 'The Dreams Of M. Kourie' CD (Chrome Peeler)
Solo debut by Californian Nathan Berlinguette of 5/5/2000, The Human Quena Orchestra, and Creation Is Crucifixion. 'The Dreams Of...' sets a course for the heart of a black hole, and takes the scenic sonic route getting there. This is the sound of stargazing, a blackened landscape of warm shimmer that imperceptibly shifts and contorts, each new shape even more abstract and more black than the shape before, tracing a minimal path that simultaneously drifts beneath the sea, through subterranean caverns, amidst the vacuum of space and through the impossibility of alternate universes. Soft rumbles, warm chordal swells, glistening abstract melodies, drifting gauzy shimmer, all falling into one another and making the journey special. Packaged in a simple folded black sleeve, printed with gold foil. Features guest appearances by Tim Green (The Fucking Champs) and Ryan Unks (Creation Is Crucifixion, Circadia).

M87 - 'Noctilucent Threnody' CD (Supernal Music)
Deep symphonic dark ambient space music. A completely alien and eerie experience of darkness and cold void desolation. M87 was created in 1995 by Huw Davies, inspirationally catalysed by a television documentary about Black Holes. Originally aiming to create music which expressed the strangeness and extremity of these elusive celestial objects, and as much aided by his extraordinary technical level as a guitar player as limited by his nonexistent technical level on any other instrument, Davies spent over a year developing and perfecting notation, playing, and recording techniques which would enable him to produce an alien orchestral sound with nothing but his 13 guitars and some recording equipment.

MAATH - 'No Survivors For The New World' CD (Eibon Records)
Debut album from this Italian artist. Based upon the concept of coma, sleep and suspended animation, "No Survivors For The New World" gently brings you through a dormant world, where dreams flow freely around you, leaving a coloured trace in the cold and dark void. Melodic dark ambient of the finest kind; round, deep, mesmerizing. Are you ready for your new world? Presented in a beautiful digisleeve.
"...a gorgeously minimal guitar workout that reminds us of another aQ fave, Part Timer, with it's sleep guitar figures, wreathed in digital glitch, bits of crackle and streaks of hiss, every now and then a thick distorted guitar surfaces, only to drift off again, leaving lots of space for that lonely guitar to drift through. Stuttery, skipping, sudden moments of near silence, but all peppered throughout a slowly unfurling expanse of warbly woozy fractured folk, soft and pretty, spacious and minimal, the glitchiness mostly adding texture, rarely interrupting the song's dreamy drift" (Aquarius). Ltd x 381 on black vinyl.
MACHINEFABRIEK - 'Ranonkel' CD (Burning World Records)
'Ranonkel' marks a break in form from the recent output, avoiding all sense of this being another ephemeral transmission from the Machinefabriek hard drive, and instead sounding like a fully formed bonafide album, a worthy follow-up to 'Marijn'. Rutger Zuydervelt combines the very best of his microsound work with an explicitly tuneful instrumental element... an infinitely graceful backdrop of high frequency sine tones, crackle and slow chords. The finest Machinefabriek outing of 2008 by some margin - you'll be returning to the opening piece in particular again and again. Matt digifile.

The title is inspired by Ratkje's new life in the countryside. The seven tracks on this CD are meant to inspire the listener to spend more time in their garden taking care of their plants. "...nestled somewhere in the nether-regions between harsh noise, electro-acoustic improvisation and plunderphonic collage-work, the two are obviously having a blast running the proverbial gamut... great stuff!"

This album contains all tracks which were previously recorded exclusively for the compilations, different versions of some compositions also released on the compilations and new unreleased tracks. Majdanek Waltz stay within their own tradition - melancholic and twilight, anxious and "transparent" neofolk with brilliant fragments, embracing dark ambient and martial atmospheres.
Reissue version of this superb release (originally self-released in an edition of 48 copies). Dark Folk with a touch of Martial Industrial, but its roots go deeply into Russian classical music traditions of 20th century.

MALACHI & THE BASTARD NOISE - 'The Immortals' CD (Housepig / Hear More! / 200mg)
This split marks a dedicated continuation of excellence in delivery and concept from Milwaukee's Malachi as well as a change in direction for the Bastard Noise. Malachi surrounds with two uncompromising orchestral compositions that are both stunning in their appeal. The Bastard Noise line up is joined by a debut of l. Rauf and it delivers two altogether delicate compositions that seem an attempt at describing nature on a universal scale with the vast distances between objects only traversed by light itself; a glittering of long-since moribund stars from eons before it was seen by man. Both units strive for the epic in their own manner. Heavy archive sleeve with covers by Thumbprint Press.
"Maleficia is the bay area duo of Andy Way (Orchest, French Radio, Carrion) and Ilysea Viles Sunderman, who crafted this desolate, post-industrial smear of voice, violin, and electronics for the always impressive isounderscore label. With the titles of the two side long pieces being "Making" and "Remaking," Maleficia offers a crucible of elemental sounds being obliterated into a charred dust and rebuilt into ashen constructions of misery and disgust... The industrialized loops that wraps around the voice and violin come across like a slow-motion Maurizio Bianchi on par with the downer records he did with Land Use or the grim power electronic phase in the early '80s. Certainly for fans of Amber Asylum, early Lustmord, and the dark ambient aspects of Broken Flag" (Aquarius). Ltd x 400 copies.

MATHIAS DELPLANQUE - 'Ma Chambre Quant Je N'Y Suis Pas (Montreal)' CD (Mondes Elliptiques)
This is the stereo version of a sound installation presented at Montreal's Studio Cormier in December 2004. The piece is based on the recording of 'silences', i.e. the recording of sound produced in spaces with no human presence. The sound of an 'empty' Studio Cormier was used as the material for the production of this piece. The sound takes were done during the quietest moments of the day, by means of microphones placed strategically throughout the Studio by the artist. The sounds gathered were then amplified and their frequencies accentuated to the extreme. The result of the experiment, as presented here, constitutes a genuine drone odyssey playing on fullness and emptiness, presence and absence, 'speak' and 'non-speak'. One long track full of subtle movement and enlivened with underlying currents. Limited to 500 copies in a textured sleeve with inserts. Mondes Elliptiques is a division of Angle.Rec, Canada.

This work presents deep obscure minimal soundscapes, moving in the fields of dark ambient music. 5 tracks trip through 5 interlinked themes, togheter with a single special track titled MB Sorrow (dedicated to Maurizio Bianchi) as final sequence of melting melody. CD comes in a digifile.

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'Blut Und Nebel' CD (Slaughter Productions)
This CD is a 'de-compilation' of Maurizio Bianchi's first 10 LPs from the early 1980s. It is an excellent demonstration of Bianchi's skills at dadaistic collage, free-form improvisation and abstract soundsculpting, as accrued over twenty years of electronic manipulation. Noise is employed like an electric guitar to produce solos of manic intensity.

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'Escape To Bela-Zoar’ CD (L-White Records)
"Stick with it, get it at the right volume, and the latest CD from this established industrial pioneer totally delivers. 3 long tracks of old school atmospheres, full of curdling, pulsating drones, unsettling tonal washes, and strong, black undercurrents. Minimal, but penetrating, with a palpable bleak and grim quality (track two is heart wrenching) that you just don’t get from the newer kids on the scene. Maybe I’m just a sucker for the old school sound, but this sounds great" (Malignant Records). Ltd x 500 copies in a DVD case.

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'Ludium' CD (Silentes Minimal Editions)
A long and almost solemn track built with reverberated piano notes, a slow and rhythmical flow leaned on a background made of clashing hisses and vague, distant, rustling ambient noises. A brief interval based on obscure drones moving in circles, inexorably entangled on themselves. Then another long piano-based track, this time more dilated, confused, ethereal and prim, so much that it takes the distinguishing features of an indecipherable sonic mass, abstract and booming, estranging, deep and psychedelic. A few and minimal elements, “directed” in a masterly fashion and assembled in an absolutely fundamental work, from the brightest mind of the Italian experimental scene and of all the music “without compromise” of the last thirty years.

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'Spiritualis' CD (Kubitsuri Tapes)
"...the duo weave a shimmering tapestry of alien drone, scattering bits of harddrive flotsam across squalls of ringing jetsam. "Improvisational" this recording might be, but aesthetically more than a few chronologically cultural links are forged with pioneer soundscapers of yesteryear (Xenakis, Stockhausen, Babbitt, Subotnick) more so than any straightforward diagrammatical connection with post-jazz avant-gardists... the duo delight in erecting a quakebasket quiverfest of extraordinarily well-articulated electronic music: gently warbling pulses course and murmur as they feint between preening tone clusters and software backwash, a bubbling cauldron of intense sonic energy that is factory resistant to pigeonholing."

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'Technology 1 & 2' 2 x CD (At War With False Noise)
These two discs by one of the most important figures in industrial / noise / experimental history were originally issued on tape in 1981 (self-released). This is the first time they've been made available digitally and fully uncut. Technology 1 has two long 25 min+ songs, both in a similar vein, taking a more subtle melodic approach than a lot of his early works. Analogue synth and organ combine to make some truly morose but ultimately uplifting music. Technology 2 is a little more caustic in its approach: this is a far more barren journey, bringing to mind a sense of alienation, like being marooned on some strange, distant planet. Almost like the nightmare to "Technology 1"s day dream. Ltd x 500 copies.

MAURIZIO BIANCHI - 'The Valley Of Deep Shadow' CD (Menstrualrecordings)
The latest recordings by Maurizio Bianchi are based on Psalm 23. MB surprises us again by changing directed and going into new and unexpected sonic territories. A "sacral sonorization for electro-spiritual keyboards, induced and regulated in the present theocratic year with the pressurized elaboration of Siegmar F". Bleak sonic atmospheres, dark ambient and industrial soundscapes, with cold and distant synths. Ltd x 515 hand-numbered copies in a hard plastic snapcase.
CD re-release of this fantastic collaboration created in 2007 by Maurizio Bianchi and Craig Hilton. Until now this recording was only made available in a very limited edition. Extremely dark atmospheres, restless and dramatic… Sharp masses of metallic noises cleave pulsating substrates of low frequencies, mixed with magmatic agglomerates of more processed sounds of an unrecognizable nature… Moments of stasis and apparent quietness… Handfuls of minutes of an unutterable, hanging and distressing tension… Sudden showers of vibrant frequencies that emerge from nowhere and bury everything under an heavy and devastating sonic mantle… A real masterpiece of incredibly dark and subterranean music.
Three long and “majestic” tracks where Maurizio Bianchi’s typical deep and reverberated sonorities, full of crepuscular melodies and subtle dissonances, get enriched by more electronic elements and fascinating elaborations, sophisticated manipulations and strong dynamic interventions operated by Crìa Cuervos… Three touching compositions built on progressive “crescendos” and a raging of slow sonic stratifications that lead to real “explosions” of sounds, drones, pulsations, frequencies, vibrations. A new, magnificent and successful collaborative experience.
Storms of cosmic energy, boiling and gurgling electronic fluxes, sonic masses made of monolithic and impenetrable drones, visions of smoky afterdeath landscapes, scorching and infernal… A neverending tunnel with no way out, a sense of deep anguish, of desolation and resigned impotence that lead the dark journey from the beginning to the end of this hallucinatory path. The sound quality and the sharpness of details are absolutely insuperable, they will offer you a “wrapping” and emotionally all-involving listening experience.

MECHA / ORGA - '56:24' CD (Absurd)
Mecha / Orga is the name chosen by Yiorgis Sakellariou from Greece. This work, indicated by it's length, was created one afternoon in February 2006, and played live thereafter a couple of times. The length becomes the title, and the listener can come up with his or her own story. Over the course of the fifty-six minutes and twenty-four seconds Sakellariou plays a slowly unfolding piece of Drone music, which grows in intensity throughout. When you think nothing more can be added, he adds another layer. And another. And another. Most suitable to play in the dark, at night. Or during the day, outside, watching plants grow. Multi-purpose music, I'd say. Great stuff. Powerful music. [FDW / Vital Weekly]. Presented in a full-colour wallet.

MEGAPTERA - 'Extended Chaos' 2 x CD (Autarkeia)
Another release to celebrate 15 years of Megaptera! "Extended Chaos" consists of two old releases, "Near Death" and "Beautiful Chaos". "Near Death" (cassette, Sound Source 1991) was Megaptera's first official release and is the only release with all 3 members (Peter Nyström, Magnus Pettersson, Mikael Svensson). Using drum machine, various synths, movies, TV, radio and microphone they created a totally analogue and dirty death theme. On this CD, 3 bonus tracks are added from the same period. Get prepared for old school! "Beautiful Chaos" (MCD, Fever Pitch 1998), has been extended to 10 tracks. The extra material is the two classic tracks 'Shadowland' and 'Sodom' from the "Death Odors" compilation, the two tracks from the "In the Butchers Backyard" compilation, a bombastic remix of the apocalyptic 'Final Day' (by The Protagonist) and an extended version of 'Shadowland', remixed by Peter Nyström and Magnus Sundström. The sound of "Beautiful Chaos" is structured and heavy with an "end of the world" theme, using sampled and mixed sounds. Mastered by Magnus Sundström.

These tracks capture Megaptera at their grittiest, creepiest, and most horrifying... a grinding, lurching monstrosity fueled by the madness, violence, lies, wars, and disease that plague the world. 'Staring Back At You' is final nail in the coffin for Megaptera, and may they rest in peace, but continue to deliver nightmares, maddening thoughts, and the darkest of obsessions.

MERZBOW - 'Age Of 369 / Chant 2' 2 x CD (Extreme)
"Age of 369" was originally released on cassette in 1984. The lesser known "Chant 2" is also from this period and complements the sonic intensity of the other. Of further importance is the influence of Maurizio Bianchi (MB) and the mail art that was integral to the industrial underground. These reissues document significant works from Japan's Noise master. Made with a cheap tape recorder and a lot of tape loops, which were then manipulated by hand. "Lowest Music 2" was a very early example of that. Then Merzbow mixed more tape loops with more harsh noise. "Age of 369" (Mlroku No Yo) and "Chant 2" are the finest early examples of that. The Japanese title of "Age of 369" was inspired by the Omoto Cult, founded by Onisabura Degughi. The double CD re-release of "Age of 369" (miroku No Yo) and Chant 2" combines both the music and the Mail Art of this period and is a fitting document of Merzbow In 1984. Australian import.

MERZBOW - 'Anicca' CD (Cold Spring CSR107CD)
The first track on Merzbow's latest opus was recorded at Tin Pan Alley studios, London, on 20th April 2008 - the day after his momentous performance at ULU. Akita created an astounding and very unique 20-minute track, playing freestyle drums over his trademark noise. The final 2 tracks were created at Munemi House in Tokyo. Another fine example of why Merzbow is the undisputed King of Japanese Noise! 58 minutes in total.
We salute the ferocious torrents of abused, imploding and exploding electronics, the sharp, pulverizing and abrasive high frequencies and the unrelenting punishment of frenzied throbbing machine-screams witnessed in the controlled cacophonic environment of the latest Merzbow offering! "Camouflage" plays by the straight MERZBOW rules, going back to his comfort zone of audio barbarism. Ltd x 800 copies in a deluxe gatefold hardback sleeve.
One of the earlier lap top style releases from Merzbow, more gentle than many of his releases. "Collapse 12 Floors" is a blistering, hypnotic float down a river of scrap metal. Three long tracks recorded in early 1999 of digital computer sound manipulation, with more emphasis on ambient and mysterious sounds then harsh noise.

This is the stereo version of a sound installation presented at Montreal's Studio Cormier in December 2004. The piece is based on the recording of 'silences', i.e. the recording of sound produced in spaces with no human presence. The sound of an 'empty' Studio Cormier was used as the material for the production of this piece. The sound takes were done during the quietest moments of the day, by means of microphones placed strategically throughout the Studio by the artist. The sounds gathered were then amplified and their frequencies accentuated to the extreme. The result of the experiment, as presented here, constitutes a genuine drone odyssey playing on fullness and emptiness, presence and absence, 'speak' and 'non-speak'. One long track full of subtle movement and enlivened with underlying currents. Limited to 500 copies in a textured sleeve with inserts. Mondes Elliptiques is a division of Angle.Rec, Canada.
