JOHN WATERMANN | Calcutta Gas Chamber (CSR52CD)

Available: September
The concept of aurally conveying the horror of a gas chamber was realised through field recordings in an abandoned electrical power station in Brisbane in 1992. The sounds are grating and harsh, a mixture of field recordings and electronic manipulations. One can rarely pinpoint a location or action but the images the sounds conjure up are of all sorts of nefarious activites related to death by machinery. The sleeve notes take you into the horror that is the Calcutta Gas Chamber. A beautifully composed and produced CD, completely remastered and re-packaged.

FIN DE SIECLE - 'Patagonie’ CD (OPN) - £12 / £13 / £14

Stéphane Flauder and Florence Cailleux create very serene and honest ambient, which could sometimes even be labelled classical music.

'Disambiguation' features on ongoing stream of grey, heavy and disturbing noises, with blocks of solid and almost material sounds and an urgency to the music. Ltd x 500 copies in a card slip case.

MOST OF THE TACITURN - 'Silent Accuser’ Pro-CDR (Dying Art Productions) - £10 / £11 / £12

SID REDLIN - 'Pandora's Recompense’ CDR (Else Product) - £8 / £9 / £10

Taken from his legendary collection The Sid Box, which contained multiple CDs, candles, incense, individual artworks and hand painted artworks... an amazing collection to be sure, but difficult to translate into a larger commercial release. So instead pieces were culled from the original discs to tell a new story - a very compelling and very dark story. This experimental electronic release also includes a bonus track. Limited to 200 copies in a hand-stamped and wax-sealed slip.


ZHURONG - 'Zhurong's Anger’ Pro-CDR-EP (Qin Dynasty) - £8 / £9 / £10

RESTOCK! Extremely underground music from China. This mysterious project (and label) present just over 25 minutes of Kerovnian-esque Dark Ambient, threatening percussion and a hint of neoclassical in the vein of Puissance. Doom-laden and bleak, this is a great insight into the dark Chinese psyche. Presented in slim DVD case with insert – all text in Chinese. By the Chinese writing inside, we presume this is a numbered edition. Pro-duplicated CDR. Few copies in stock!
