Soft Error - Everybody Runs

http://importantrecords.com/imprec/imprec440

Of Grog Vim is a cinematic take on the epic life of visionary legend Grog Vim. 
This is the 15th album from Italian cult band, Larsen, who represent a meeting point between sound art and post-rock. 

After two albums deeply marked by the smoky voice of singer Little Annie, Of Grog Vim is the first fully instrumental album to be released by the band since they started 20 years ago and features special guest multi-instrumentalist Thor Harris (Swans) on trombone on two pieces. 

"If you're troubled by the retrograde state of guitarbased music, Larsen warrants your attention..." All Music Guide

Larsen - Mother Vim from Of Grog Vim CD

Taken from debut album 'to the top of the hill and roll...' opening track 'wind up bird' showcases the scope of dynamics in the musical arrangement of the record. It begins with subtle, earthly bird noises and a hypnotic guitar loop. As the song develops, this loop remains still amidst a flurry of atmospheric sounds and percussion. 

Produced by Ian Davenport and James Hall
Mixed by James Hall 
Artwork by Sonia Dubois

Larsen "The Grog Vim Accident"

'Time Is Not Your Friend' is the second single taken from CUTS' forthcoming album 'A Gradual Decline'.

Reflecting the current fragility of the planet, the drum sounds on this track were taken from field recordings taken in Iceland:

"I managed to capture the sound of ice cracking from the stress of water and in the distance, ice calving from its glacier. The first half of this track has a darkness to it but then it opens up into something more hopeful. That kind of feels like where we are in terms of climate and its predicted breakdown. It’s not a totally hopeless situation but it looks like it will take everyone pulling in the same direction to halt it. Time is not our friend in that respect." - Anthony Tombling Jr, CUTS

Off XXL / Xiu Xiu Larsen 2nd album "¿Spicchiology?"
Important Records. 2007: https://importantrecords.com/products/imprec130

XXL "The Tale Of Brother Cakes And Sugar Dust"

'Everything Ascending’ sees Snow Palms newly re-minted as a duo, with mainstay David Sheppard’s signature glinting electronics and crystalline glockenspiels augmented by the modular synths, tapes, piano and production skills of Matt Gooderson, alongside vigorous, rhythmic clarinets and soaring vocal flights. Over ten minutes in length, the piece oscillates seamlessly between passages of mesmeric electronic pulse, choral-enhanced minimalism and immersive, gamelan-like ambience and precedes more new music later in the year.

Out 22/02/19. Pre-order here: https://VillageGreen.lnk.to/5P5jSWE

Fadin VOGUE.NOIR Remix

Fadin - VOGUE.NOIR Remix for Blind Delon & Sopoorific (on Ltd Edition 12" Vinyl)

“The first self-release from Buenos Aires-based producers Catriel and SWORDSMITH is a brutal two-track split bursting with unbridled industrial noise. Each recorded in a single take, both songs blend electro with hardcore techno for a white-knuckled glimpse into urban darkness. Everything from the tracks themselves to the limited run of 50 vinyl copies was pressed, recorded, mixed, and mastered locally in Buenos Aires. This is the authentic sound of the Argentine underground in all its grit and glory.” 

Artist: Catriel
Track: Fashion Killer 
Label:self-release

Premiere #58 Catriel - Fashion Killer [Self-release]

/// MUSIC TO TORTURE PRIESTS TO /// 

..........Italian Olympics 5.......... 

BUY HERE: https://italianolympics.bandcamp.com/album/rubbers-lover

The fifth Italian Olympics release comes straight out of Russia with Distørshn Shape's Rubber's Lover, a two-track industrial techno facemelt inspired by the 1996 Shozin Fukui-directed Japanese film of the same name.

At home in the darkest, sweatiest basement clubs of Saint Petersburg Rubber's Lover will turn your insides out. Like the country it was born out of, a sense of mystery, unease and on-the-brink-of-violence permeates throughout this short, sharp shock of a cassette.

A1. Rubber's
B1. Lover

Super limited to just 20 C20 black tapes. No digital-only sales, digital files provided upon request after purchase.
