Cisfinitum - Coniunctio (Ewers Tonkunst)
2CD set that brings together remastered material from the hard-to-find "Landschaft" CDR (including the tragically beautiful "District Delta") and "Malgyl", which was only distributed in mp3 format through the Entity net label. The tracks range from mournful synthesizer dirges to low-end heavy mechanical drones, all with that particular Cisfinitum touch and craftsmanship. This is the re-release of the set with new artwork.

Cisfinitum & The [Law-Rah] Collective - [ANS]werk (Fario)
Label info: "Russian one-man outfit Cisfinitum and Dutch duo The [Law-Rah] Collective are both dark ambient masters. They dedicated this split and common work to one of the very first synthesizers in the world, the ANS.
The ANS, created by Russian engineer E. Murzin from 1937 to 1957, is an incredible response to the synesthesia theories (the letters ANS stand for Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin who linked tones to colours). The ANS synthesizer (only one copy exists and is kept in Moscow) generates special frequencies from drawings ("it plays what you have drawn") and in the opposite it can also create a visible image of a sound frequency. Artists such as Coil, Edward Artemiev (for Tarkovsky's Solaris soundtrack) and Alfred Schnittke used the ANS in their compositions.
For this album, The [Law-Rah] Collective and Cisfinitum based their music on original sounds from the ANS as well as additional recordings of various analog synths, fractal and granular synthesis, voice, violin, field recordings."
Note: the 23-min track by Cisfinitum is an amazing composition of shimmering drones and ghostly melodies that is not be missed.

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."

Contagious Orgasm - Flows Out (Waystyx)
Structured electro-beats, syncopating rhythms and fragile collages of cut-up sounds resonate with the added benefit of a crystal-clear production. Could be a companion release to "The Flow of Sound Without Parameter".

Contemplatron - Antarabhava / The Six Realms (Wrotycz Records)
Label info: "The Sanskrit word "Antarabhăva" means "the intermediate state" and in particular refers to the state between death and the moment of the next birth. This is the sonic journey of the soul wandering through the nooks of other worlds. The second part describes the six realms which, according to the Buddhist tradition, symbolize six destructive emotions: ignorance, hatred, enslaving desire, jealousy, pride and greed. [...]"

Contrastate - Handbags & Dada (Fin de Siècle Media)
Label info: "The now defunct influential UK project played only a few live shows during their existence, but they put a lot of effort into making them something out of the ordinary. The third installment in our Contrastate series is a live CD which covers three different phases in the band's history from 1989 to their last ever performance in 2000. Tracks previously available on vinyl and cassette as well as one world premiere recording from Camden Palace in London."

Cyclotimia - TimeBank (Zhelezobeton)
"Timebank" gathers assorted unreleased material recorded between 2003-2007 that went unused on the albums recorded during that period. Far from being leftovers, these 16 tracks cover a wide spectrum of styles that expand beyond the duo's signature blend of technological ambient, from the dystopian elevator jazz of "Bank Lounge 1" to the cinematic electro of "Nocturne". New age music for the stock market imperium, and dedicated to the unseen victims of economic crisis.

Cyclotimia - Sci-Fi Music (Zhelezobeton)
Label info: "As the title suggests, the new work by Russian masters of electronic soundscapes represents a score to an imaginary sci-fi movie. The musicians call themselves admirers of old-school Sci-Fi / Cyberpunk genres, and for a long time they have felt a desire to make some music inspired by soundtracks of sci-fi blockbusters from 70-80s... Spaceship battles, alien colonies, teleportation and mysterious droid ceremonies are only part of the images created by this music. The album contains both dynamic rhythmic "hits" and disturbing space ambient as well as avant-garde neoclassic pieces."
(CD, jewel case, to be restocked soon)
