Here’s another recent release by Hummus Records, a record label based in La Chaux De Fonds, Switzerland. For those who’re not familiar with the activities of this record label, Hummus Records usually releases experimental artists, but the entire catalog is surprisingly good. I had the privilege to listen and review a decent amount of their… Read More Ester Poly – Wet LP (Hummus Records)
Recently, I had a chance to post news about Now You Are Not Here, the latest effort by Abrasive Trees. For those who somehow missed my recent post about this interesting outlet, Abrasive Trees is a solo project of Matthew Rochford, a creative artist whose interests span across several complementary genres. Like on his previous… Read More Abrasive Trees – Now You Are Not Here CD
It’s been a while since I introduced some ethno/world music on these pages, so this recording came just in time to serve the occasion. However, this is not a regular ethno or world music album. This one comes with a twist, a carefully assembled mixture of several other genres to be more precise. One thing… Read More Multumult – Now And Then CD (lollipoppeshoppe)
To be quite honest, I listened to a decent amount of noise releases over twenty years or so, but I rarely stumbled upon collections and selected works. Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying these compilations don’t exist, but for some reason, they’re rare, and noisicians are usually sticking to the recently recorded material.… Read More Noisesculptor – Ordinary Mind Disorders 2xCD (Unsigned Label)
After the first edition of Adventures In Lo-Fi, Holy B makes a proper comeback with a brand new material that goes way beyond countless music genres. Like his first EP wasn’t impressive enough, B Hollinger decided to take a step further and creates an experimental beast that will gather positive critics among those listeners who’re… Read More Holy B – Adventures In Lo-Fi Vol. 2
It has been a while since I wrote about experimental music on these pages due to some responsibility towards other music genres. A pile of avant-garde releases awaited on the shelf for a couple of months, so finally, the time has come to dedicate a couple of posts to the releases I received from the… Read More ParaNoiZ – The Rules Of Free Improvisation CD
Nothing matches the late-night atmosphere caused by an obsessive continuous listening to post-punk music. Somehow this particular genre works for me during the night when I need to calm down and relax from a daily grind. There’s something in calm, cold, bleak, depressive, melancholic melodies that draws my attention and brings me back to this… Read More Послесвечение – До Лучших Времён
What if you could reimagine your childhood dream and stories into a form of an audiobook and preserve them from possible oblivion. The majority of people are rapidly losing memories of their dreams after waking up, so being able to remember all of your dreams a couple of decades later can be counted as quite… Read More Alberto Rizzo Schettino – Future In The Past
This gem recently came to our headquarters. I was not familiar with this group until Bloodshed666 Records pointed me out to their music. What’s undoubtfully special about this band is how they combine several genres to achieve a certain ambiance. Phal:Angst sounds like nothing you’ve heard before, mainly because of their experimentations that you would… Read More Phal:Angst – Phase IV DLP (Bloodshed666 Records)
There’s something about shoegaze and dream pop music that keeps me entertained for countless hours. Sometimes I could go throughout the entire weekend by listening to these particular genres and clearing my head of the mess caused during the working week. I was fortunate enough to stumble upon Slowness, a tremendous band from San Francisco,… Read More Slowness – Berths LP (Schoolkids Records)
Here’s another treat for all the admirers of experimental music. Vinylized represents a special edition curated by 4mg Records, a non-profit label that releases underground electronic music on vinyl and cassettes. Today, I will talk about the sixth edition that gathers names such as Ján Boleslav Kladivo, Troi Boglesseoure, Imiafan, Richard Imrich, Royal Hungarian Noisemakers,… Read More VA – Vinylized Vol.6 LP (4mg Records)
Here’s another dosage of Hungarian avant-garde experimentations, but this time it comes with a twist. Fixateur Externe are not strangers to these pages, and previously I had a chance to review a couple of their recordings. This material could easily pass as various artist compilation, mainly because this release represents a collection of remixes. Disco… Read More Fixateur Externe – Disco Satan USB (Unsigned)
