REVIEWS

These are not only reviews or personal opinions about releases but also just descriptions. We randomly comment here some of the stuff we have and/ or receive, it doesn't matter if it's done in 2007 or 1992, and it doesn't care the format, so you could also find in the future just some gig review or mp3 release/ promotional stuff review.

GELSOMINA / FILTHY TURD

"SPLIT"
(CDr | 2007)

SYMBOLIC PROD

Bitch Shit!!

FILTHY TURD broke my peace with a nearly 30 minutes non-stop Noise track, no furnitures on it, this is almost the same Harsh with no variation for 30 minutes long, and it gets to be the opposite of boring as someone could think... The definition of Harsh in a continuous mass of sick sound.

GELSOMINA playing also a destroying and loud Noise mayhem is more about variation, sounding like some random keyboard, synth playing with on a base of dirty feedback morbidity... Extremely Made in Finland and designed to make me loose the fucking mind.

AY LA PUTA QUE BUENO!!!

Packaged in a large plastic bag. Limited edition of 200 copies.

NOISECONCRETE / 240RME / MARIKO SUGAWARA / MIXTURIZER

"4 WAY SPLIT"
(CDr | 2008)

G13recordings

4 artists together on this release on the japanese label managed by Junji Ono (MOISECONCRETE / GANG UP ON AGAINST).

Started by NOISECONCRETE with a beautiful tune made of keyboards and flute melodies to turn inmediately in what is expected to hear on this work... Harsh Noise

240RME from Belgium are about Breakcore/ Experimental Drum'n'Bass/Atmospheric with ragga vocals even, fast amens and noisy orgasmic sound.

MARIKO SUGAWARA, this girl from Japan is the conceptual side of this split with some confusing experimental spaced synth acoustic noises, 100% on the abstract way!

MIXTURIZER from Spain, also in the abstract way but more into the loopism and saturated Noise of a dead mass in movement of a 14 minutes track.

G13 did it again! Nice melting of styles on this.

Packaged in a slim DVD case.

NOISECONCRETE / THE $PACE VAMPIRES

"Split"
(CDr | 2008)

G13recordings

Noise, Harsh, digital paranoia, Annoying, sometimes lo-fi and sick violent screams on NOISECONRETE (Japan), formed by Junji Ono (vocalist of grind act Gang Up On Against).

THE $PACE VAMPIRES playing out real well their Industrial / Ambient/ Noise role on this record, their tracks are not annoying as NOISECONCRETE's but on the ambiental and weird side, even sometimes entering melodic and rhythmic passages with sounds alike jazz improvisation, glitch, IDM.

Totally recommended for all those who like to explore the melted frontiers of Noise and dare to get introduced on other styles as well.

Packaged in a slim DVD case.

WINTERS IN OSAKA

"red tooth, red claw"
(Pro-CDr | 2008)

Somnimage / Power Silence

Chicago based act presenting this album made of two long Droning and Experimental Noise tracks. Featuring Kenji Siratori, Zweixx and Mykel Boyd.

The noise featured on this release is some of the finest i've heard in 2008, it has a lot of audio sources which kept me diving through it from the start, shocking and amazing!
It's dedicated to Erik Stanis.

GUIGNOL DANGEREUX

"Fingermonsterbuzz"
(CDr | 2006)

Organic Pipeline

Electronic funk from prolific Italian artist Guignol Dangereux.
Ambient techno alá Autechre, with a bit of tribal electro thrown into the mix.

Black/silver CD-R. Limited to 100 copies.

Review on VITAL WEEKLY: "It's highly minimal, sometimes a bit ambient related, but sometimes up tempo... with a strong, machine-like rhythm that borrows its original ideas from the world of industrial music, but with a lot more groove to it. 'Hotline 3232' reminded this listener of Chris and Cosey's "Trance" LP. By far the most refined and developed work by Guignol Dangereux."

Review on INDUSTRIAL.ORG: "'Fingermonsterbuzz' is a total glitch masterpiece. There are nine tracks here and all of them are excellent. The album spans a bit over 55 minutes and that time is filled with beautiful ambient grooves that are at times rather minimal and at other times quite complex. The music here really pushes the lines between glitch and IDM in a very exquisite way."

PULSE EMITTER

"Violent Cosmos"
(CDr | 2006)

Organic Pipeline

Ambient Experimental Noise by PULSE EMITTER, this CDr was recorded live late 2006 and it consists of two long tracks made of modular synth sounds on a trip through a violent electronic cosmos.

Black/silver CD-R with artwork comes in a color-cover. Limited to 97 copies.

Review on VITAL WEEKLY: "[Pulse Emitter] knows how to take the sound down, move into another territory, put on dynamics and thus creates an intense but interesting listening experience. Here talent and experience pays off, it seems. Two powerful pieces of fine noise."

Review by Chris Groves, CIPHER PRODUCTIONS "... an often very minimalist, creepy presence which occasionally rises in squalls of temper-tantrum synth squall or reveals a delicate melodic presence. Highly recommended."

VVAA

"Stench Of A Noisecore Spirit"
(CDr | 2007)

CNCCR

Don't focus on the Noisecore word appearing on the title... this is not Noisecore.... but high quality pure Harsh Noise Experimentals from the french noise label CNCCR featuring: Bassfucker / Our Scoring / Audiocum / Concrete Creeps Filth.

Quite short to be considered a compilation this is more alike a 4 Way split CDr EP Hand made printing on CDr.
