Herz Jühning - Faces (Galakthorrö)
Label info: "Herz Jühning is a new Galakthorrö artist. He presents driving, straight ahead electronics predominately in an Angst Pop style. His tightly constructed arrangements consist of a combination of darkness, the required sadness, plus finally the aggression that fires off in the title track. All four songs will get directly under your skin and start your pulse racing!
From every standpoint a very respectable debut and we wait in suspense for the next episode."

Hermann Kopp - Under A Demon's Mask (Galakthorrö)
Label info: "Everybody who has seen the Buttgereit films Nekromantik 1+2 and Todesking, has heard of Hermann Kopp. The music he wrote and performed for them is ever-present, pervading the atmosphere and has contributed considerably to the advancement of these films into classics. He still retains to this day his exceptional musical ability, and proves it yet again.
Galakthorrö is proud to be able to present 13 new songs from the nekrodramatist: more than 40 minutes of new material, which today – just as it did then – has as its core his dissonant-tempered and individualistic violin playing. Combined with electronics, a host of weird instruments and metal percussion he creates an unequaled gruesome opus, carried by an effectively conceived minimalism, and the most beautiful and haunting Angst melodies imaginable. So morbid and wonderful in fact, that we have to ask ourselves how we could manage to survive for so long without any new material from Hermann Kopp – and which demons were riding him that he had to keep us waiting so long."

November Növelet - Sacred (Galakthorrö)
Label info: "The new 4-track vinyl EP from November Növelet. Deep emotions behind a stoic manner, walking tall in the face of sadness. Frau Arafna's graveyard voice, melancholy melodies and lashing rhythms invite you to dance into oblivion. Plus növelistic synth sound-carpets that carry one to Heaven. An intensive sound experience that will draw you in – many-layered, full of variety, but in spite of this, so modestly minimal." One copy per purchase and available if bought with a Galakthorrö CD.

Tapio Kotkavuori - Terra Hyperborea (Gemina Stella)
Label info: "Musically the artist himself describes Terra Hyperborea as "post-apocalyptic dark-ethno-ambient". Its semi-organic, semi-electric soundspheres are trance-inducing, almost hypnotic, varying from soft mood adjustments to more focused incantations and chants. Kotkavuori's main weapon of choice in this battle against silence is the didgeridoo, but tons of other instruments - such as vocals, rainsticks, shaman drums, coffee maker, synthesizers, kitchen knives etc. - have been used as well. All in all, these recordings create a shamanistic ambiance with a dark twist characteristic to the Left Hand Path. [...]"

Dvar - Jraah Mraah (Gravitator Records)
The mysterious creatures of Dvar are back with a whole new repertoire of otherworldly songs and playful little ditties. Thankfully not much has changed since the last time, and "Jraah Mraah" has the same hobgoblin-like vocals and impish melodies that make every one of their albums a fairy tale for the ears, keeping with the oral tradition that is essential to the genre. There's one key difference though: the tale is no longer being told from the point of view of an omniscient narrator in your language, but directly by the gnomes, trolls and pixies themselves in theirs. Wonderfully enchanting as always.

Cyclotimia - Celestis: Space Ceremonial Music (Gravitator Records)
Leaving aside their Wall Street portfolios and the corporate world for a second, Cyclotimia bring us an album of cosmic-themed IDM-ish ambient (not too far from Bad Sector's Kosmodrom) that is actually going to be sent to space soon. Here, read it for yourself: "Through an arrangement with U.S. aerospace company Space Services Inc. and its subsidiary Celestis Inc., a copy of this album will be incorporated into a payload that is scheduled for flight to space aboard a powerful rocket. Cyclotimia has been named the official musical group for Celestis' Legacy Flight."

Contagious Orgasm - The Flow of Sound Without Parameter (Ground Fault)
Label info: "Recordings of the sound of a town in Germany. The sound of a park being cleaned. Recordings at a zoo. A conversation in the kitchen. The scenic sounds on a balcony. These sounds were processed, and other sounds were added with ambient beats mixed in. This gives you The Flow of Sound Without Parameter."

Uthana-Eise - g.d.g.r. (Halbwelt)
Debut release from this obscure German death industrial / power electronics unit. Plodding machine rhythms, buzzing electronic tones and a rather subdued vocal approach. Somewhat close to some of the less sample-heavy Objekt/Urian tracks.

Dusk of Hope - Flexible Response (Hermetique)
Long-delayed CD album from this French ambient noise project whose previous material includes a tape released years ago on Slaughter and some compilation appearances, including tracks on our own "Like Music to Their Ears Vol 1".
The artwork and sound both depict images of decay, ruins and of places still haunted by the ghosts of past and nameless conflicts. Tense and brooding at time, serene at others, but always executed with a purpose. Released on Propergol's home label, Hermetique.
