Diagnostic and Æthereal Arthropod are two of the main players in the contemporary industrial, experimental, and noise scene in Europe, the former being one of the projects of the Belgian sound/graphic designer Jan Robbe (UndaCova, Atomhead, Erratic), and the latter being the moniker of the Spanish musician Nestor Peixoto Aballe, who responsible is for some of the harshest outings in the post-club community such as the releases on Genot Centre, Quantum Natives, and many more.

Their artistic relationship dates back to at least 2016 when Nestor's Hydra's Amaranthine Invigoration two-tracker saw the light on Entity Records, an mp3/ogg netlabel co-founded by Robbe together with Nico De Gols that was born on the ashes of the previous incarnation Tinnitus (reportedly dead in 2003 because of a server problem). Three years later, in May 2019, the two musicians spent a few days together at Robbe's place in Deinze, Belgium that ended up in several minutes of collaborative material which has since then been shaped up in their first record together, called RELIC and out on Friday, May 7th (#BANDCAMPFRIDAY!) on the artists' Bandcamp pages.

Mastered by GianMaria Dell'Aera at Dadub Studio, RELIC collects the results of multiple sessions of modular improvs and vocal fx recording that have been manipulated over the course of the next two years in the shape of a chimeric, alien flow of sound, all wrapped up into 5 track with ominous titles such as Eternal Return of the Derelict Species, The Detrimental Axis of Brutalism, etc. The record lives out of the overlap between Robbe's of radical, harsh industrial music and Nestor's beastly, grinding vocal tracks. As reported by the authors themselves, the work has been shaped around the envisioning of a long-lost, advanced extraterrestrial civilization destroyed by the magnitude of an extinction-level event, and the effects of said terror on the inner functioning of the few survivors' psyches.

Diagnostic and Æthereal Arthropod indulge in the evocation of obscure back-to-primitiveness rituals by means of guttural vocals, and oscillating infra-bass tides while simultaneously infiltrating into the mangy remainings of the inhabitants' sense of being via piercing, blade-sharp noise bursts. Today, we're glad to present you a 5-minutes excerpt out of the EP, namely the third piece called PSXLM (Psalms to the Forgotten), which represents the no-return point inside the alien ceremony that will take you to decaying landscapes of distorted fear.

NETWORK GLASS - "DAEMON69-2" [117-10]

Blightcaster - s/t
Cat. Nr: DN023
Format: DL
Release Date: October 21, 2022
Buy / stream: dansenoire.ffm.to/blightcaster

An anonymous duo split up by border control between Melbourne and London, with an axe to proverbially grind. Blightcaster takes its name from Magic: The Gathering but its affinity with the fantasy trading card game stops there. Or that’s at least if you think fantasy can’t also be a nightmare. The mostly recorded, rarely live noise, gorenoise, power electronics, hardstyle (etc.) band began in the dank privacy of a southeast London basement in 2016, before being cut short by an expired visa and a return to Australia for one of its members.

A handful of years and a global pandemic later, the two had the opportunity to finish their work remotely, sending files between countries and ruminating on the rotten core of a world that has only gotten rottener. Tracks like “Hymns from the Slaughterhouse”, “Disgraced Species” and “Devastator Slug” wheeze, croak and crackle with swells of extreme distortion. “Mind Unleashed” and “Weaponised Banter” offer a pounding though heavily degraded gabber in a barely melodic turn that you would never detect in the goregrind comparison of a band like Last Day of Humanity or Agents of Abhorrence’s contemporary grindcore.

Recorded using whatever they had with limited skills, Blightcaster is the no-fi product of sessions with a broken laptop, cracked software, a cheap synth and buggy contact mic. And while the duo’s own nihilism denies having a message, you might make one out in the blood-curdling shrieks and crunching beats of “Miserable, Mediocre, Nothing”. If ‘inspired' is the wrong word to use, Blightcaster are at least informed by the likes of labels like Self Abuse, Blood 'n' Guts, Head Fuck and Shit Wank Records. There are samples from survival horror games like Manhunt and Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, but also from the meme zeitgeist; such as the 'Small, Angry Man Yells at Trumpet Player' youtube video. This is the sound of life in the crumbling hell-realm of reality, where ruin and plague meet magic.

SITOI - Kuori I

'Kuori' is a story about a shift in identity following the collapse of reality. The double EP examines gender and sexual identity, mental health, and existence within forced, rigid societal norms.  It's a portrayal of confusion, the relentless hold of anger and loneliness, constant change, and finding softness and tolerance. SITOI transforms the mundane into abstract imagery. Her spoken word poetry is reunited with the familiar unforgivingly abrasive yet somber noise, expanding upon the sonic foundation laid by 'Kyyhky' with more pummelling and techno-infused percussive production.

'Kuori I' explores the cross pressure of sensitivity and callousness, feelings of exclusion and depression. It's a claustrophobic attempt to escape the glass enclosures upheld by societal norms, thrashing through panic attacks and nightmares from warehouses to bathrooms. 'Kuori I' finds solace in the deafening tumult, security in the midst of turmoil.

To be released 29th January via Changeless.
