Conversations About The Light - A Retrospective (Ominous Recordings)
A compilation of rare and previously unreleased tracks from this American project, with some past releases on Audio Savant and Cipher Productions and a collaboration with A Crown of Amaranth out on Eibon (as A Crown of Light). This collection of bleak drones colliding with harsh noise outbursts makes for some rather "uneasy easy listening" as the label puts it, and it's definitely worth hearing if you'd like to check out this overlooked artist. Limited to 150 copies.
(pro-printed CD-R, jewel case, $5.00, on sale)

Bardoseneticcube - KachaREX (Puzzle God)
Flowing sounscapes with twinkling noises and delicate chirps, occasionally thickened up by a dense fog of synthesizer sounds. Worth the admission price just for the 9th track alone, which combines processed organ-like vocals with a flurry of squeaky toy sounds. Limited to 150 copies.
(CD-R, hand-made cardboard sleeve, out of stock)
Bardoseneticcube - Tek-Now II (Puzzle God)
For this release, Bardoseneticcube leaves aside the industrial drones for energetic technoïd pieces and strange sampler-heavy rhythms. Includes a couple of genuine "what the hell is this?" moments. Few copies left.
(CD-R, clear jewel case, out of stock)

Le Vieux Thorax / Giscard le Survivant - self-titled (Ragondins Mondains)
Split release featuring 6 tracks from each project. Surf punk, TV jingles from the 70's, psychedelic electronics, cut-ups and collages are some of the ingredients in this genre-defying sampling fest. Think Mr Bungle meets Nurse With Wound in a bistro, and you're halfway there.

Cloverleaf - Self-titled (Rectrix)
Label info: "Cloverleaf's debut is a crushing and thorough ideal of suffering. Slowly churning forth bilious spew for all righteousness; a dark classical work worthy of concert hall attention. Predominant usage of guitar, piano, and samples for a flowing and ebbing manic depression."

The Haters - Voice of Victory (Self Abuse)
Label info: "Recorded in 1997 at the Longhorn Speedway in Austin, Texas by playing various sounds over the racetracks PA system. The result is one of the Haters' noisiest releases ever. The CD-R is limited to 200 copies, and comes packaged inside a cardboard box, alongside a bumper sticker, crashed car, and air freshener."

Mattias Frisk - En Dag I Väntan På Livet (Self-released)
Mattias Frisk is a graphic artist whose collaboration with fellow Swedes Altar of Flies and Gjalp was released not too long ago on Nil By Mouth. This 29-min debut solo release is a wonderfully strange collage of sputtering noise, acoustic pop music and bird songs. Overall, this is an imaginative piece of work that definitely warrants keeping an eye out his future releases. The presentation is equally unusual, as the CD-R comes inside a sealed envelope addressed to Mattias Frisk with a hand-written letter in Swedish and a color insert.
(CD-R in sealed envelope, $8.00)

Mattias Frisk - Ett Liv I Väntan På Döden (Self-released)
Second part of what is announced as a trilogy of releases by Swedish artist Mattias Frisk, whose eerie and colorful paintings and collages are just as attention-worthy as his musical output.
Exploring the themes of "time, death and apathy", this second chapter shifts to slower and more dispiriting sounds, with gloomy piano melodies and ghostly drones pierced by brittle noise shards. Solemn and somber like it should be, this definitely comes highly recommended. Packaged like the first volume in an envelope with a hand-written letter in Swedish.
(CD-R in envelope, $8.00)
