T.A.U. - La Splendeur Géométrique / Urbanomania (ALF Produkt)
T.A.U. (Trans Aero Urbanizacija) is primarily known as a collaboration between Alexander Lebedev-Frontov and Kirill Rozhkov, but the latter's absence on this new release makes room for Igor Potsukailo of Bardoseneticcube, who steps in for all editing, processing and mixing tasks using sound sources provided by Lebedev-Frontov. The end result is a remarkable synthesis of their individual traits, Bardoseneticcube's surrealist strain twisting the metallic factory noises of Linija Mass into a vortex of steel and welding sparks.
Due to the hand-made nature of the sculpted packaging this is limited to 30 copies, of which there are only a few in stock.
(CD-R in painted / sculpted jewel case, to be restocked soon)

Alexander Lebedev-Frontov - Chaos (ALF Produkt)
Re-release of the earliest recordings from Alexander Lebedev-Frontov, made back in 1985-1986 before Linija Mass came to be and when St Petersburg was still known as Leningrad. The material is a combination of cut-up noise and tape collage with crudely constructed loop structures that hint at the many projects to come. Digitized from cassettes.
(CD-R, handmade cardboard sleeve with color insert, $12.00)

Alexander Lebedev-Frontov - Cosmos (ALF Produkt)
More archive recordings from Alexander Lebedev-Frontov (also known for Linija Mass, Stalnoy Pakt, Veprisuicida) recorded in 1986, right after "Chaos". Less abrasive in some regards than the previous release and with more decaying gramophone sounds and radio broadcasts amid the cut-up noise. Digitized from tape.

Vetrophonia - 1987/1989 (ALF Produkt)
Re-release of the earliest Vetrophonia material from 1987-1989, before Alexander Lebedev-Frontov had yet to meet Nick Soundnick. Initially destined to be released as Linija Mass, the tracks switch gears from plodding machine clatter to collapsing collages of strained tape noise. Fabricado por los esclavos de los campos de concentracion de la U.R.S.S.

Alexander Lebedev-Frontov - Bio Versus Mechano (ALF Produkt)
Recordings from 1988-1992 of pure mechanical bliss. Collages of machine noise, cut-up low-resolution audio artefacts and sputtering vocal snippets. A perfect follow-up to the "Chaos" and "Cosmos" re-releases.
(CD-R, hand-made packaging, to be restocked soon)

Thirdorgan - Lalahmania (Alienation)
Harsh noise from Japan's Thirdorgan. Although the titles seem to be inspired by pulp sci-fi movies ("The Incredible Melting Man"), this is unmoderated cut-up noise à la Government Alpha but with a more digital flavoring.
