Acid on Acid is Heaven on Earth
Techno against Narcissism
Motherfuckin’ Bass in ya Face
This album responds to an inescapable need to interact, from my creative work, with the serious events that have occurred in Chile since the social outbreak of October 2019 to date. These are urgent compositions, made in the late night of the impact, thus responding to the inhumane act of political-economic power. Once again, this power has exercised the most brutal violence against the Chilean people, through someone else’s hand. So never again!

about
Music which captures the underlying relation between human beings and natural forests: Lifecutter presents his vision in the soundtrack for the short film and research-art installation Sub Persona.
Managing forests is not a subject of everyday conversations, seldom even theoretical thinkings. But for the art tandem PLATEAURESIDUE these topics are the core of their artistic and also research work in which they connect landscape ecology and new media like film and photography and later exhibit them in various gallery spaces.
For the project Sub Persona they invited Domen Učakar to accompany their visual work with the audio setting. Domen Učakar has been performing and publishing music under the moniker Lifecutter for more than six years now and Sub Persona is his fourth album and a second one (after Safe Place – 2016 with Iztok Klančar) which has been made with a tight connection to a strong visual work.
The music captures the relation between humans and forests, which are the condition for life existence on Earth and at the same time an important economic resource. The ambient sonic structures may at first seem to communicate a feeling at peace with the current situation, but as the unnamed compositions progress they unveil the sheer brutality, the suspense of the dead silence and the… more

Like Furry & Bukka’s “Party! At Home,” this record is more documentary than album. A collection of moments, caught in the wild and imprinted onto magnetic tape, during the first two nights of the new year.
Track 4, “Dec. 31, 2019,” contains an impromptu recitation of C. M. Slenko’s last poem of the decade. Tracks 6 and 14 capture Henry Hyde’s newest composition in the act of becoming.
Over 20 tracks, “slush” finds SSH re-visiting old memories from Slenko & Hyde’s back catalog, and crawling out of the past into new improvisations, inspirations, and interpretations.
All filtered through substance and sleep-deprivation — and a heavy dose of tape hiss — “slush” is unedited and uncertain, but honest and unwavering in its’ direction — forward, with one last sweeping backward glance, to survey the past for relics we will carry with us into the future.
Imagine waking up in the middle of the night, looking outside the window and noticing that something has actually changed. The world is still there, it sleeps but it is present, mocking you constantly and slowly showing itself .
Anyway now something seems to cover reality with a thin layer of bright glue, an ambiguous material that hides the features of things and that unfolds the world under a different, bright light.
You walk, this concrete is soft, the walls of the houses are covered with morbid, viscous, beautiful materia.
This world speaks to you, it tells you a different story. You could stay here forever and forget an imposed, harsh past. In this new vision, however, the past coexists, it lives and it embraces you, forever wrapped in a flaming rodeo loop. A giant puppet show put up by family and friends.
“Colla” is a metaphor, a hope for a different dimension, where thought generates tangible content without too much effort.
The streets of Sant’Angelo are now populated by… more

Nicolas Tourney is a french experimental musician and sound designer, also owner of the label Snow in Water Records. His new album Gloucester consists in 23 experimental compostions based on a precise methodology, gear and sound material.
As the artist says himself “For Gloucester, the device used brings together a 1/8 violin, a viola, a pure data processor and a ring modulator.
It is a work of sound evocations around Charles Olson’s Maximus Poems. I use a projectivist method, freely inspired by the theoretical work of the American poet. In the field of possibilities thus opened, this research allows spatialization in a neutral listening space.
This work was developed during a stay at the Performing Arts Forum, a kind of European Black Mountain College.”

They have imposed a state of siege of the Homelands, they have burned down the harvest, they have abused and lied, here we talk in new languages, likewise, the justice is made up, territories are defined, the overvalued fall, the stillness rises and the movement doesn’t decrease, communication and action goes on, dictators, rapist, and killers against the wall, here we stay and move, here we fly, never is outside, a new rhythm is heard, colors, vehicles, and movement, never is outside.

Tocan el blues. Using the Blues patterns framework. Perhaps the best album by Gossweiler + Darisbo partnership. Recorded probably in 2013, it waited for several years for release. Whenever the two artists met, they remembered, “What about that blues record?” A vida tem dessas coisas. Hey yeah. Tell me what you gonna do.

IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH GRASPING THE DIVISION OF LABOUR BETWEEN MAN AND MACHINE
“There are obviously various musical directions and techniques going on in this album. A variety of sound sources and instruments are introduced. Abandoning specialization and sliding towards universality produces thriving musical diversity but also easily ends up to the dilettantism, which I have not been that much afraid of.
How many instruments I really played on this album? The answer is unambiguous. I am a guitarist, so I play guitar (on tracks 1, 2 and 10). Track 8 is played on the guitar, but the sound source is a virtual instrument violin (Embertone’s Joshua Bell violin by guitar to MIDI, no Max/MSP involved). Playing gestures of violin (sampled) and guitar (played by me) are entirely different in nature. So what is the point of playing violin by the guitar? Just to have fun.
For those who do not know Hzk this is the right record to click on play.
Impossible to hear him quietly! Noise where our electrical brain waves are automatically connected with New Order World. Yes, that’s what we see if we keep our attention high.
A New Order World by the hands of Hzk. The shuffled senses, the sense of reordering space and time. Sometimes you go up, sometimes you go down the stairs of your troubled mind.
Directly from Japan to MiMi Records a record that moves our guts. We could tell you to sit down and let you travel between beautiful landscapes, but we would be lying. Sit down and travel underground, your heavier self, the confusions of your mind and let Hzk rearrange you! Start at the surface and let yourself go down to the underworld.
Welcoming melophobia (experimental music and noise project from Greece) & Fernando Bocadillos (composer and musician from Argentina). 
A collaborative project done remotely within three days of August 2020. 11,780 km distance but so close… Fernando played his guitars and Melophobia use them as raw material to create a musique concrete version of today.
This album is a compilation of humanfobia tracks mixed with the original music of Soul Heater project. The Main title belongs to the Humanfobia original track, and the titles between parentheses are the names of the original tracks by Soul Heater located in his soundcloud page.

A dark electronic lullaby, hidden into us there are a lot of dark realms, and this nightly vision makes them real and noisy.
Second time for Giuseppe D’Aiuto from Savona in our netlabel, and it’s getting better anytime. Darkwave, gothic, maybe blues form the soul.
A travel into our deepest fears and our greatest pleasures, really hurting and really good. Synths from the eighites, reminescens of a past tense, electro visions and a musical impulse to disorder.
A masterpiece for the people that live in the dark, that’s better that their light. A song like Fraternal Twin will change your life.
A special thanks to Giuseppe D’ Aiuto for the music of Discontinuation Of Treatment.
With the purpose of perceiving the spatial/sonic distance through drifts/displacements between rehearsal rooms of music schools in the metropolitan region of Chile, and the rehearsal rooms of Córdoba and Buenos Aires, Argentina, this auditory register transports us to realities that today are no longer familiar. In this way, when going through the seven tracks we can connect with situations, sounds and spaces that evoke a human activity that as a consequence of the pandemic have become distanced themselves, the rehearsal.
During the development of the project and Micro-File Memory of the Project ESSAY ROOM n ° 2: Distance in piano and double bass developed at the IMUC (2012) with the tutorship of Luis Prato, Georgina manages to capture/record those moments of proximity/distance where the music that is still prepared with dedication before entering the scene lives. Just as the map has been the main instrument of communication of the cartographer, or of he/she or those who have drawn it, over the most diverse foundations and with varied techniques and purposes; Georgina manages in each work of this album to present a concrete manifestation of a geographical reality, situating us in those places and achieving sonic displacement.
In each listening we can go through corridors, stairs, sounds of instruments, voices, steps that fill our memories with emotion and a little nostalgia, transporting us to that instance, to those stories, that provoke us to converse in order to relive those moments of camaraderie. Each melody heard in the records allows us to connect with what we already know about music, to distinguish between one subject and another, to recognize who wrote it or what period it belongs to, these are exercises that are undoubtedly triggered by this work of Georgina, who with her decision to activate her own listening today re-activates us and invites us to feel that this waiting for physical distance has an end.
At present, distance has been assumed as a necessary action to protect the human well-being that is health. Distance has also been synonymous with respect, distrust, introspection, tours and displacements, actions that are applied in accordance with the circumstances and contexts. It was unthinkable to believe that today those spaces that the album evokes for us, an album that deserves to be listened to in a state of contemplation and intimacy, an album that invites us to reflect.
Distance, memory and longing, concepts that emanate from the origin of this album, located in diverse realities with connected situations, the rehearsal. Space for introspection, coordination, learning and communication, a space where poetry lives, the intangible heritage of that which is ephemeral in its temporal chronology but which leaves its mark on the sonic imaginary, making the reunion with these urban landscapes audible and possible.
