German Army Endless Suburb

German Army - Vital to Nothing [Natural054 Endless Suburb LP]

Lacrima is the second outing on lunar convoy's efja label. Carte blanche has been given to the artists, allowing them to convey their own vision of experimental music. Throughout its 45min, Lacrima features a wide range of feelings and emotions, from the intricate Taklamakan Trek to the tear-jerking Inner Hill. A collection of dark & light ambient excursions, inherently personal and playful, meant to question the past, present and future.

Méryll Ampe "W7E" CD
MAR060
Release Date: November 4th, 2022

A multitude of processes, techniques, and forms unfold and unfurl within the work of Méryll Ampe,
an intermedia artist from Paris working through sound, sculpture, and installation using a wide assortment
of materials. What is immediately striking about Ampe’s work is the vibrant, non-linear approach to
electro-acoustic composition.
Here on the debut for Misanthropic Agenda, Ampe liberally reconfigures / deconstructs / genetically mutates
all sources: hydrophone recordings of vibrations through skin, analog synths, tape machinations,
sequencing programmed through algorithmic variability, and plenty of digital processing.
As Ampe describes it, the music on W7E is "a research with an experimental dimension, guided by notions that
systematically translate a form of ambivalence, between inside/outside, micro/macro. These intentions are
vectors of the dynamics, reliefs, depths and rhythm. My training as a visual artist also leads me to go through
mental images (such as a steep landscape, a boiling organism, an organic matter) which will then find a
sound form, states that I would describe as syncope, sound effluvia, abrasive arrhythmias. I look for a form of
plasticity in the sound medium, and that this energy become a living matter."
This multi-dimensional overlay through composition telescopes in and out of the body (not necessarily always
a human body, it should be noted), through a connectivity with technology that can influence psychological states
of being. The work addresses liminality, transitory slippages, and quantum theories of a particle being the two
separate places at the same time. If that can occur at the atomic level, why not through sound?
W7E stands as a dynamic, polydactyl album reflective of the aesthetics (if not concepts) of Keith Fullerton Whitman,
Francisco Meirino, and Bernard Parmegiani.

Premiere: Sopoorific - Iron Tears [Grande Rousse Disques]

@Sopoorific - Gemstone
Waterfall Cave - limited/50 - Tape release
@grande-rousse-disques
Release date : 3th nov 2022

Impossible de deviner que, derrière cet épais entrelacs de branches, se trouve l'entrée d'une grotte. C'est une simple fente dans la paroi, dont s'échappe une odeur profonde, chargée de vie et de mort mêlés.
Après quelques mètres à peine, l'air se fait lourd et saturé d'humidité, les ténèbres s'épaississent. 
La progression est lente et chaotique, car il faut maintenant s'aider des mains dans ce qui n'est plus qu'un boyau étroit.

Après un parcours qui semblait interminable, dans une oppressante absence de lumière, de mouvement et d'espace, le boyau s'ouvre sur une vaste caverne, et une bruine fraîche se dépose sur votre visage.
Dans cette vaste salle, une chute d'eau s'écoule dans un lac aux remous envoûtants, et des pierres bleutées incrustées partout dans les parois dégagent une faible lueur, donnant l'illusion d'une nuit étoilée, vous tombez à genoux, et tout semble s'élever.

Heavy revisit of Heimat - Unterwegs track,  by UVB76 

Teenage menopause strikes again releasing Heimat - REMIXES.
Following two manifesto-albums, which quickly became an influence of marginal musics in France, Olivier Demeaux & Armelle Oberlé asked artists whose directions they share to revisit some of the flagship titles of their catalog.

"We thus find there the priest of the English pysché Sonic Boom? the cantor of slow techno Toloose Low Trax, the experimenter of the modular_synths Le Crabe or Zohar, UVB76, PlimPlim and many others."

Cathartic Empathy

https://inparadisum.bandcamp.com/album/organisme
Amédée De Murcia's third LP on In Paradisum as his main solo project "Somaticae" is a synthesis of his long time obsessions between dissonant/repetitive melodies and long-edited free-form noise electronics. This amalgam has resulted in an album of oppositions- between dramatic abstractions and short melodic nursery rhyme moves which, at times, recalls the thorny nature of Autechre plugged into the improvisational bombast of Giacinto Scelsi. “Organisme” tells of a personal quest of identity, a quest where one comes to terms with his inner monster

UNTITLED (ARCHAIC VAULTS/CONTINUING A WORN OUT TRADITION COMP)

off-key cover of I`m so tired* by Fugazi

``out here, I can barely breathe,
surrounded by jealousy and greed.
I can`t be reached, only had one call,
trapped underneath, separate from you all.

this time i lost my return,
in spite of what i learned.
I hid my tracks, spit out all my air,
slipped into cracks, stripped of all my cares.

I`m so tired. sheep are counting me.
no more struggle, no more energy,
no more patient, you can write that down.
it`s all too crazy. I won`t stick around.``

*with slight lyrics adjustments, because of dyslexia, speech impediment and because why not;


**I was too tired to rerecord so just added another layer that was done with both the volca and vocoder set in slightly different pitches, hence it`s extremely off-key, but kinda fun in a way somehow imh0
