Robert Rental takes up residence with Dark Entries again for an expanded double vinyl reissue of Mental Detentions. Robert Rental was a Scottish pioneer of DIY electronic music. Along with his illustrious collaborators like Thomas Leer and Daniel Miller, Rental helped shape the countercultural sound of the UK with his timely melding of Krautrock, dub, and punk. Originally from Port Glasgow, he moved to the south of England with Thomas Leer in the late 1970s, and became involved with the local music scene. Robert Rental however released very little of his solo music - the only solo recording from The 1970s is the 7" single "Paralysis" first released on the homemade Regular Records in 1978, and re-released on Dark Entries in 2020.
Mental Detentions was released as a cassette in 1979, the same year as his masterpiece The Bridge, a collaboration with Thomas Leer. Using an assortment of budget electronics - a Roland drum machine, a kid’s Stylophone keyboard, and an Electroharmonix DrQ - Robert takes us on a gauzy, trip, at once expansive and intimate, minimalist and maximalist. “Stuck” is mangled motorik, like Neu! run through a meat grinder, while “Vox” meanders like an 18 minute ambient fever dream. Robert spoke to friends of his frustration at being unable to replicate his sound in a commercial studio - it was these demos' sound that he wanted to create. Sometimes having only access to the most rudimentary of equipment can sharpen one’s craft - necessity is the mother of invention, indeed. This ethic shines in his work, providing a throughline to the now, as the world feels bigger and smaller than ever. 

“Influenced everyone from John Foxx and Art of Noise to ABC. 
Seriously next level day zero DIY electro pop made in a bedsit with hacked together synths and reel-to-reel recorders.” - Boomkat

McMarian - duo from Cracow (Poland) formed in 1986 and suspended in 1989. Main members was Piotr Kalinowski and Marcin Bednarski (Wahehe, O.N.G.O., Biomodem, Elektrostat, Subotnick), supported by Piotr "Peter" (tapes, effects, noise) and Marcin "Marski" (sounds, rhythm, noise). Mostly session project, played only a few gigs (Gdansk, Warsaw).

Guest musicians: Ojciec (Wahehe) - guitar, Franz Dreadhunter (Düpą) - bass, Prezes (Id) - bass, Nodzeń - bass. 

McMarian was inspired with music forms created by early Cabaret Voltaire, The Residents, Throbbing Gristle, Criss & Cosey, S.P.K. and D.A.F. Two homemade analogue synthesizers constructed by Piotr himself were the fundamental part of all his musical instruments. One of them was a sort of mixture of a sound generator, a sequencer and a drum machine. The soundscape was filled by loops (short glued together bits of the magnetic tape) as well as electronic and acoustic instruments.

V/A "Polish Road" (1989, Organic Tapes, France).
