16 Bitch Pile-Up "Bury Me Deep" CD
The California dreams that led to death... There's twists, bends, curves, scrapes, and bumps. The atmosphere was simply frustrating and depressing - good! The ending is a shocker of sorts, each track is an unpredictable event that makes your heart beat with more than just suspense, but pure emotion - yes, definitely emotion. I even cried. Twice.
16 Bitch Pile-Up are a fierce 3 piece squall of Heartland (now California) electronics, thick moans, and scraped effects. Having previously performed at such noteworthy festivals as All Tomorrow's Parties, No Fun and Wooden Octopus Skull, 16BPU here presents their first widely available cd. Full color (+ naughty) fold out cover artwork in jewelcase. Limited edition of 1,000.

Aaron Dilloway "Bad Dreams" CD
Dilloway's got a grave problem! Tense ghost clatter and haunted Michigan sputter collapse helplessly into fever, exhaustion, depression. This is home-taping of unconscious dread and hopeless shudder.

Aaron Dilloway "White Hair b/w Amputation" 7"
Here is another entry in the BloodLust! Detroit chapter, this time coming from Aaron Dilloway. For this single, Dilloway (Hanson Records, Wolf Eyes, The Beast People, Miscarriage, Violent Ramp, etc.) offers up two unique pieces of unsettlingly dark electronics. The creeping, slow-paced A-Side is highlighted by its underwater synth style and its insistent-yet-mysterious vocals. The B-Side starts off with a much harder, oscillating impact, and it evolves into something akin to what might be the final sounds heard before a psychedelic death. Fans of early 1980s synth, industrial, and power-electronics (e.g. Maurizio Bianchi, Lustmord, Esplendor Geometrico, Kraang) will surely bask in the decayed, anxiety-inducing sound of this record. Limited to 300, pressed on white vinyl.

Aemae "The Helical Word" CD
Computer drone & noise written and recorded by Brandon Nickell over an
intensive two-year period between 2003 and 2005 in Oakland,CA. All
eight tracks synthesized and sequenced using vocal resonance and a
wide array of synthesis techniques. A deep exploration into far
corners of the frequency-domain.

Aemae "Maw" CD
’ÄúThe Helical Word’Äù was my first introduction to AEMAE’Äôs experimental mayhem and I instantly was addicted to its harrowing visionary application of noise. Brandon Nickell’Äôs follow-up ’ÄúMaw’Äù presents even more depth at crafting noise into something musical and intriguing. Exploring raw sine waves and frequency patterns, ’ÄúMaw’Äù fits not into the noise or IDM category but into the out-of-this-world variety. For if aliens were revealed to have been living among us, it’Äôs a safe bet that I’Äôd assume that Nickell is their leader and he is taking over our minds with brainwave manipulation via sound. Textures of ambience float among the flickers of electronic feedback and synthetic intricacies that make ’ÄúMaw’Äù a commanding force in the electronic music field.

Airway "live at lace" CD
"Reissue of this scarce LAFMS title in digipack, limited to 500 copies. This album was originally recorded and released as an LP in 1978; Airway was a group featuring Joe Potts, Chip Chapman, Rick Potts, Dennis Duck, Juan Gomez and Tom Recchion. Live At Lacewas later included in the Cortical Foundation/RRR 10CD LAFMS box from 1995, but this version has been remastered, using the original tapes for the LP. It is considered to exhibit a "pretty different feeling of sound" and features unique artwork that was only used on Japanese-export copies of the LP when it was first released." - FE.
Crucial early-noise document from the Los Angeles Free Music Society heyday. "AIRWAY is a brainchild of Joe Potts. Here are COMMANDMENTS OF AIRWAY: AIRWAY is a hole through which our conscious passes. Sound of AIRWAY is not an object. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed location. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed location. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed meaning. Sound of AIRWAY has no dimensions. Meaning and dimensions of AIRWAY sound constantly change in relation to the universe inside and outside listeners. Sound of AIRWAY has no fixed time. The "flow of time" in AIRWAY sound is psychological not physical. Sound of AIRWAY is a representation of the whole of sound existing inside and outside us. Because all sound of AIRWAY is interrelated, there is no such thing as innovative sound at AIRWAY performance. Sound of AIRWAY is an unfolded manifestation of hidden (enfolded) universe, consisting of all sound which will ever exist and has ever consisted inside and outside us." "The monster is back in its original nature! Human synthesizers!! Hijokaidan in its early days was heavily under its influence. Definitly a must for everyone in this era!" -Toshiji Mikawa (Hijokaidan/Incapacitants ).

The Alienst "Drone Action Trio" CDr
Our material is quite different from the earlier, solo studio work. It is 100% live and improvised. There is my analog synth, Evan's contact mics, Tom's voice, and all of us using laptops. We are as one creating the drone, our sounds blend and build into a cumulus cloud of sound.
Unlike some other noise artists, we're not trying to hurt your ears. Lay back, turn this up, and enter the black hole. (from label)

Entrancing atmospheres will bring you into Stefano’Äôs magical world, which is an oneiric, dreaming journey to the inner self. Limited to 400 hand-numbered copies with textured card artwork.

Alio Die "Under an Holy Ritual" LP
Re-release of the classic Alio Die masterpiece. "Under an Holy Ritual" is a ritual ambient milestone and probably the most highly regarded release from this Italian ambient composer. Remastered for vinyl in 2005.
"Multi-layered sonic densities that can evoke the air of ancient storms one minute, then ebb like an immense black ocean the next. This knows how to alter moods with both thick electronic pulses and prehistoric scrapes of mysterious percussions. Cerebral, spooky, and thought provoking meditative/ambient music that harkens from a ritualistic viewpoint." (I/E Magazine)

Altar of Flies / Sewer Election split LP
Two of the best acts currently dwelling in the depths of the Swedish underground scene. Sewer Election should be well-known by now, previous releases includes a split 12" with Incapacitants, cds on Troniks and Chondritic Sound and the amazing Killing-tapes. Altar Of Flies has created quite a buzz over the last year with a huge amount of very limited tape/cd-r releases. On this split LP, Sewer Election contributes with the nasty Rotten Corpse. A crude and disgusting piece. Monotonous, freezing coldness. Altar Of Flies continues with his dark and eerie forest rumblings. Buried claustrophobic lo-fi insanity straight from hell. Heavy outbursts of feedback. Could've been outtakes from an old Dario Argento soundtrack. Mean-spirited ugliness from both bands. Limited edition of 325.

Anakrid "Fever Dream Fever" LP
Critically acclaimed sound artists Anakrid present another in a series of limited
run explorations into alien occultic territory. Hailing from the same school of
abstract surrealism that brought the world Nurse With Wound, Hafler Trio, SPK,
and Coil, Anakrid presents a unique take on the ’Äúdifficult listening’Äù genre
with a passionately constructed and focused dynamic racket. Veering from
the contemporary groupthink of noise for the sake of noise, Anakrid takes the
listener on journies through bizarre soundscapes without being overly long-winded
in the approach. A refreshing get-in and get-out policy creates an LP that is
essentially 12 mini Robotrips on wax. Each piece is a ritual excursion unto itself,
yet the etirety of the album works brilliantly as a whole (or as a hole).

Asmus Tietchens and Jon Mueller "Acht Stucke" CD
Second collaborative effort between german sound manipulation pioneer Asmus Tietchens and american improv-drummer Jon Mueller. The CD features 8 tracks that run up to 53 minutes. Jon Mueller on the second collaboration: "The previous collaboration between Asmus and I involved me using only sounds derived from drum heads. For Acht Stuecke, I've used only Chinese gongs and cymbals, so a completely different range of sound occurs. The performance of the percussion material was from various non-mechanical techniques (striking, swinging gongs, extended techniques, etc.) to create a palette of mostly textural sound with a large frequency range that Asmus could work with." And indeed, work he did! The completeness that is Acht Stuecke is of breathtaking beauty and simplicity and complexity at the same time. The album is definately more homogenous and 'together' than the first meeting of the two musicians. It emanates a warm and deep sound evolving out of total soundless blankness as it seems.
Jon Mueller has been active for several years in the us improv scene playing in various ensembles and doing solo work. Asmus Tietchens has been producing electronic music since the 1960ies and is one of the most renowned sound artists today in Germany. In the last five years he was awarded twice the SWR state radio prize "Karl Sczuka Preis" for radio art. He has released more than 80 records and CDs on labels all around the world.

Axolotl / D Yellow Swans / Gerritt LP
Originally released in 2005 as a limited edition CD-R on Yellow Swans' JYRK label, this three-way collab now gets a proper run on wax. Recorded in Oakland at the Huffin House before the Swans made the retreat back to Portland. Despite the weight of these players when they rock alone, this jam really never gets into full on white out territory. Instead, it's loaded to the brim with wavy neon distortion and soothing low end that occasional drops out into hugh washes of emptiness. The opening passage of GMS guitar flecks sympathizing with Karl's string wash is alone worth the price of admission. Red vinyl with lime green splatter.

Bhob Rainey "Two Bites of a Bitter Sweet" 7"
Bhob Rainey is an established bigwig of the global improv/noise/experimental underground as a result of his work alongside trumpeter Greg Kelley in the influential duo, nmperign, his direction of the improvising juggernaut, The BSC, and his numerous solo works and collaborations with the likes of Jason Lescalleet, Gunter Muller, Ralf Wehowsky, Le Quan Ninh, Alessandro Bosetti, and Michel Doneda, among others.
Two Bites of a Bitter Sweet is his first release of purely electronic music, and Evolving Ear is tickled to be the messenger on this one. The material on the two side-long, 33rpm pieces ranges from homemade synth textures to field recordings from Lisbon, Venice, Huelva, and other, unremembered locations. There's some singing by Naomi Yang (Damon and Naomi) and Bhob himself, and some words of wisdom from Archbishop Desmond Tutu. Overall, a woozy alternate reality is offered for repeated dream pool swims.

Birchville Cat Motel "Gunpowder Temple of Heaven" CD
Birchville Cat Motel is the project of New Zealander Campbell Kneale, who has from his base in Lower Hutt since the mid 90-ies established himself as the leading voice of this generation of NZ sound artists. Gunpowder Temple of Heaven is a new highlight in his extensive discography. A single 40 minute long-form piece that keeps building and unfolding; heaven for drone-noise enthustiasts.
The CD comes with a booklet with a complete Birchville discography as well as liner-notes by Bruce Russell.
From the liner notes of Bruce Russell (The Dead C): "I've been listening to the music of Campbell Kneale for more than a decade now. Recently I've been listening with a sense of increasing admiration as he stacks up monumental sound slabs in an architecture of audition - building a lofty tower of sound. Always a dedicated worker at whatever he does, Campbell had mastered the detailed work required to place many sounds accurately across each another. Often this kind of 'more is more' strategy backfires into murky sludge, where the increasing layers merely obscure each other. On the contrary, the more BCM puts into a piece, the more you hear coming out."

"Challenger is a composed work rather than his more improvised work, each piece revolving around a central melodic theme with field recordings, an audio diary bridging the gaps. It's emotions of a period of time set to tape. The sounds range from pure tonal mood to huge electronic crescendos. But what's most remarkable is the use of space, where parts come in and drop to build or recede .When the piano crashes in "Mysteries of the Organ" its almost a frustration of paradise, a rejection of perfection or maybe a jolt of inexplicable life, unable to be translated into proper 'communication. Juxtaposed with the quiet haunting of "Hopelessly Devoted" which sounds like a love letter written to outer space, it makes for an album that is both dynamic yet consistent as a full statement. licensed from plastic records."-Hospital Productions

"Pressure. Steam. Scrapyard drainage, leaking into the corners. Mold and mildew - seepage. Cracks, crevices containing black days and red nights. The infection is spreading. False and forgotten. The Butcher, as he's known amongst friends and enemies, slices his way though flesh and bone on his first vinyl appearance and his finest moment to date. Contaminating the a-side with sick tones, nauseating hiss and whine, the rumble and wet sadism of clogged sinuses led to climax in an orgy of rotten magnetic tape. Mongrel howls and junkyard threats make up the unhealthy flip of this record - the slowest of rhythmic thump wrought in contrast to relentless clang reminding of the new, no, The OLD Blockaders. It ends the second you wake up. Throw your vacant body in the gutter."

Christian Renou "Fragments and Articulations" CD
Christian Renou has been making electro-acoustic music for 17 years. His first cassette release was back in 1985. From 1985 to 2001 he recorded under the name Brume. He then started using his own name with the release of Zona Ventille in 2001 by Elsie and Jack Recordings. While the name changed, the style of music did not. Christian Renou is still putting out very high quality music in the new French tradition. "Fragments and Articulations" is no exception.

Climax Denial "Ritual Smothering" 7"
It began in the basement. Ammonia
burn. Moonwalker legions. A 90-minute drive. Frequency.
Inevitability. Finality. Steeped in cult teen and fetish
sites. Soaked in true industrial history - local, regional,
and international. Claiming his low-fidelity birthright,
which is both passive and aggressive. Two tracks of dark
and ugly electronics, heightened by the opportunity for
emotional intimacy, as promised by the sexual come-ons
derived from desolate telephone answering services. Pressed in an edition of 300 copies on white vinyl.

Cloama "In the State of Unbelief" 7"
New 7’Äù which finds Cloama at its most vehement, a savage exposition of raw power electronics which has never been quite so overt in Cloama’Äôs sound until this project. Notwithstanding the clear ’Äò80s PE influences the production and composition are distinct, discreet layers and the usual attention to detail giving this work flair.
