Keine Ahnung quartet from Germany formed in 1980. The live sound utilized more complex synthesizers, tapes, guitars, metal percussion and custom built electronics. The beats and bass lines came from the Roland 606/303 duo triggering a KORG MS-20 for the bass drum.

COMATEENS - In the fall of 1978, after working with a series of bands, New York-based musician and composer Nicholas West became interested in experimenting with minimalism, collaborating with guitarist and songwriter Ramona Jan. They decided to play pure pop but to substitute a primitive electronic beat-box for a human drummer.

Puma & The Dolphin make a welcome return to Invisible Inc and once again deliver the goods.

This EP has all come together rather quickly. It actually only just got inserted into the release schedule just over a week ago. It was mastered just 5 nights ago and the artwork started 3 days ago...so it's happening fast. This also means no DJ feedback yet....but since sending out some promo yesterday I'm told the opening track "Golden Coast" will be appearing on Optimo's NTS show next week! So it's off to a good start :)

INVINC DD12 Puma & The Dolphin - Phantom Impulses EP [samples] OUT 2 FEB 2023

A renowned producer, visual artist and performer, Strapontin is not a man afraid of trying new things. Signed to the labels Optimo, Hard Fist, I’m A Cliché, Invisible Inc. or La Belle Records, the belgian artist has crafted his own musical style, located somewhere in an unknown land between post punk, tribal downtempo and dark disco. With heavy, sensual beats, other-worldly vocals and cavernous basslines, his view of music is adventurous and mindful with a taste of queerness. You probably have caught him lately remixing Karpov Not Kasparov, Vox Low or brilliantly editing bombs for I’m a Cliché. He’s also part of Poetic Punkers collective as a soundtrack composer and performer, a different point of view that has strongly influenced his singular and uncompromising music for years.

DC Promo Tracks: Secret Circuit "Every Day There's Something New To Say"

Invisible Inc is over the moon to finally be announcing this long-awaited double album of new music by Secret Circuit.

Presented here are 21 new pieces (or 22 if you count the bandcamp-exclusive digital bonus) recorded between 2020 and 2022 which capture that spacey, otherworldly quality Secret Circuit is known for but they also very much veer into the warmer, earthier and generally more ambient textural territories of his E Ruscha V and Only Thingz work...an altogether softer sensibility. The fact that the second disc of the double album is primarily ambient further confuses the issue! But Secret Circuit this most definitely is!

From a plethora of demos (60+) Invisible Inc label boss GK Machine wanted to distill these down and explore a side of Ruscha's that he felt hadn't been heard before, focussing on Ruscha's more emotive yet at the same time experimental side. Is that a paradox? Well, let's say only very rarely do we hear modular synths doing something so human-sounding, and when these are juxtaposed alongside slide guitars, live bass and vocodered vocals, we have something very special indeed.

Then there's the artwork...all lovingly drawn by E Ruscha V himself and landing on our desk long after the record had gone into production and test pressings delivered and approved. The package is made complete with a double-sided colour insert with liner notes and another of Ruscha's mind-warping doodles. Oh and the liner notes are written in reverse so you'll need a mirror to read them. Of course they are!

To cut a long story short, everything about this release is archetypal classic Secret Circuit and couldn't be anyone else. A highpoint for the label in 2023, no doubt.
