Chaos As Shelter - Message (Taalem)
Label info: "[...] For this 3", Vadim has worked from a spy message he had captured on his shortwave radio. The always evolving 20mn track he has composed is simply fascinating and obsessive. At the first listening you're hooked!"
(3" printed CD-R, $6.50, last copy)

Chaos as Shelter - Dead Air Broadcasts (DTA Records)
One of the early releases by this Israeli dark ambient act. Relying on processed and sampled radio sounds as the basis for most of the tracks, "Dead Air Broadcasts" shows much more depth once you familiarize yourself with it. Might definitely appeal to Kryptogen Rundfunk fans.
(CD, jewel case, out of stock)

Funkstillesender / Komatöserzustand - Dno (Beta-Sendung)
Comatose ambient made from layers of radio noise and static by these two obscure Russian projects. The presentation is cheap (don't expect anything beyond a photocopied sheet and a white CD-R in a slim case), but it somehow fits the rough lo-fi nature of the sounds to be found here.
(CD-R, slim case, $10.00)

Invisible Front - Interferences And Time (Indie-ziert)
Appropriately subtitled "Kampf auf allen Frequenzen", the debut release by this Berlin-based unit chooses the radio as its key subject matter and explores its impact as the first major mass communication tool of the 20th century. As expected, this translates into samples of number stations, historical radio speeches and general shortwave chatter providing a backdrop for over-driven synthetic tones and crackling (yet controlled) noise. The less agitated moments bring to mind SRP's "Schriever Rundflugzeug Projekt" and other Membrum Debile Propaganda releases, but overall this album is much more abrasive than initially hinted at. A struggle on all frequencies indeed.
(CD, slim DVD case with inserts, $13.00, last copy)

Kryptogen Rundfunk - Live 2005 (Zhelezobeton)
Following multiple limited edition split and collaborative releases, this is Kryptogen Rundfunk's first solo release since his CD album on Mechanoise Labs back in 2004. The two live recordings presented here were made during the "Noise vs Glamour" festival in 2005 in St. Petersburg and Moscow, and later reworked in a home studio. Expect a masterful mix of analogue Rokton synth, computer sound synthesis and processed radio noise that slithers and hisses itself across subdued soundscapes and into controlled eruptions.
(pro-printed CD-R in full-colour sleeve, to be restocked soon)

Ritualnaya Bioingeneria - Poluraspad (Ultra)
Ritualnaya Bioingeneria is Lunar Abyss Deus Organum dragged from the forest and forced into industrial labor. With its combination of busy factory sounds, bursts of radio noise and snippets of Soviet-era gramophone recordings, "Poluraspad" is definitely at home on Alexander Lebedev-Frontov's label. Few copies in stock.
(CD-R, silver-inked paper sleeve, $12.00, last copy)

Survival Unit - Fentanyl Martyrs (Autarkeia)
Final studio release from post-mortem / power electronics purveyor Survival Unit, based in Sundsvall, Sweden. Focalizing its attention on the blood-soaked events of the Chechnyan war, "Fentanyl Martyrs" takes you to one of the world's most annihilated conflict zones for the grand tour. Guerrilla warfare, mass graves and merciless tactics are some of the offerings on this soot-covered battlefield and its related theaters, as conveyed by pilfered radio communications, crude and relentless noise and barked sermons of dehumanization. A gruesome assessment that now serves as a fitting epitaph to the conflict's "official" end as of April 2009.
(2CD, double digipak in embossed boxed set with booklet, $33.00)
