Andy Ortmann - Nightmania (Nihilist)
First full-length album from the founding member of Panicsville and the Nihilist label. This release contains 6 tracks that individually serve as soundtracks to the drawings and collages presented in the booklet. From corrosive pools of gurgling noises to dense collaged moments of joyful mental retardation, this is a rich and rewarding listen for those with a taste for the disturbing. A special mention also goes out for the crystal clear audio production.
(CD, clear jewel case, out of stock)
Arc - The Circle is Not Round (A Silent Place)
Debut CD release from Arc, the trio of Aidan Baker (guitars, flutes, tapeloops), Richard Baker (drumkit, percussion) and Christopher Kukiel (percussion). This results in a combination of the more melodic Aidan Baker pieces with layers of varied percussive instruments, giving the sound a rhythmical and live quality that works consistently with the ambient drones. Pleasant and soothing stuff.

Arktau Eos - Mirrorion (Aural Hypnox)
Label info: "Presented in seventeen chapters that can be approached as singular gateways or a slowly unfolding journey of epic proportions, the debut album of ARKTAU EOS is a challenging, complex work. Born of intense private musico-magical sessions held in places abandoned by man and further refined in the temple-laboratory of the duo, it is the distillation of seven arduous months of work. [...]
For this recording ARKTAU EOS have favoured an organic approach with majority of instrumentation being of acoustic variety, including the unearthly choral of the kanglings, piercings blasts of windbones, accelerating steel-plate rolls, singing bowl and various kinds of stringed instruments."
(CD, six-panel A5 booklet, 12.00 €)

Aural Holograms - Vol. I (Aural Hypnox)
Label info: "The very first part of the Aural Holograms series incorporates various call and response patterns manifesting vibrating, subtle energies, all of which have been accurately divided into separate rhythmic dimensions and time-shifting aural tapestries.
The overall experience - i.e. the ecstatic effect - is transmitted by the intensity of syncopated rhythms, reed organ lingering on a few tones, self-transforming vocal work accompanied with carefully chosen oscillating tunes and a variety of percussive patterns utilising artefacts crafted according to the methods of traditional metallurgia, as well as real-time tape operations."
(CD, six-panel hand finished cardboard booklet, 12.00 €)

Bad Sector - Kosmodrom (Waystyx)
New full-length album dedicated to Soviet space exploration. This release sees Bad Sector incorporating minimal rhythms, samples of space station chatter and vintage Russian synthesizers into his signature sound. Consistent and impressive retro-futuristic material throughout the album. Comes with a 20-page full-color booklet.
(CD, transparent plastic box, out of stock)
Bad Sector - Plasma (Old Europa Cafe)
Label info: "Great conceptual work! sound sources: Magnetosphere, Vostok + Salyut + Soyuz original recordings, Pulsar, High Voltage, Neon... all these sounds build a unique, powerful and pulsing sound sculpture, a great mind experience! Cover presents a series of interesting "electricity / energy" historical photos."

Bad Sector / Contagious Orgasm - Vacuum Pulse (Old Europa Cafe)
One of the most recommended collaboration records in the post-industrial field, and rightfully so. 4 tracks where each project alternatively provides the raw sounds which are shaped by the other.
(CD, clear jewel-case, 13.00 €, last copy)

Band of Pain - Qué Amiga? (Cold Spring)
Cinematic ambient with a balance of synthetic and acoustic instruments from this UK project and label-head of Dirter Promotions. Not too dissimilar to some Contrastate works at times.
(CD, digipak, 13.00 €, last copy)
