AMNION, EXP 1

Now available exclusively as a free download via Bottle Imp Productions.

In a lonely room a boy sits, slowly turning the broken knobs on an old AM radio. Between the indistinct scraps of local ball games and talk show pundits he hears the thin traces of a far off signal, these flashes of choreographed static sounding somehow purposeful through the random noises. He adjusts the dial, moves between windows, fashions an antenna from a knotted slinky coil and is rewarded for his feeble efforts. The song of distant spaces reaches his ears. A song whose waves have been stretched as it passed through the hydrogen molecules of a murky nebula and compressed as it passed near the pulse of a dieing star and became a teaming choir as it gathered voices from a distant galaxy. So long a journey just to sing to one lonely boy.

Exp. 1 is the freshman composition of Amnion, pupil of Australia’s experimental maestro, Shinjuku Thief. It is a conglomerate of orchestrated pulses, hums and static that at times sounds more like the songs of stars through a radio telescope than a composed recording. It is a signal with a subtle elegance that will reward the studious listener.

Now available, BLÆRG, “Auspices and Vagaries“.

Ever watch a 60’s movie set in the future? The kind where the sets are stark white with oddly shaped chairs in bright colors that don’t look the least bit comfortable, where the cars fly but are roughly the size of pontoons, where people get their meals by speaking into little boxes and out pops a plate with a small, unnaturally colored cube on it? Yes, it all looks futuristic and ultra-modern but it still, without a doubt, is stamped with the impression of an era long past – and it’s still really cool.

BLÆRG’s latest release, a 3″ CD by the name of “Auspices and Vagaries” is the perfect score to a meal of Soylent Orange or for a drink at the milk bar. It stirs together bits of futuristic rhythms, strains of jazzy flavor and a splash of retro flair into a wonderful little breakcore appetizer that leaves the palate whetted and the appetite craving more.

This 3″ CD-R is hand printed and assembled, and comes with an “Auspices and Vagaries” vinyl sticker. This album is strictly limited to 50 copies. Album can also be downloaded for free in 128kbps MP3 format. This could be the last BLÆRG album for a long time.

Thanks again for all the support on the “Help Louis” sale. We got him to the vet, he is on some new medication. The bills were very high so the help went a long ways. Hopefully everyone’s packages made it safely.

“Leaving The Burning Building”, the first full length album by Detroit based Metria, is a gritty and unsettling album that invokes deep images of the industrial waste that litters Detroit. Subtle creaks and voices slither in between slabs of deep drones and post-industrial noise. This album will appeal to fans of older Lustmord, Brighter Death Now and some of the gritty early work by Skinny Puppy.

Bramble, “Emergence”

Now available from Bottle Imp Productions.

You wake from a fever dream suspended in darkness. Your arms, hands, fingers are heavy. You feel the weight of your fingernails pulling you down, down, down into the soft darkness echoing below you. You feel the darkness fold around you; a shroud, a chrysalis, a womb, whispering to you. It molds to your form, encapsulating you, covering you, entering you. Its gentle caress hums to you comfortingly.

You open your eyes. You see strings of darkness vibrating in tune to emptiness. A searchlight rotating from an unlocatable source catches something in its beam. Floating before you, thin, light, softly formed. With each passing of light you see more of its shape. You identify the arc of its outline, the contours of its fold. You reach for it. You stretch your arms before you and push against the darkness, pulling yourself forward. And your fingertips graze it; soft and smooth, satiny, firm and delicate. The soft fragrance of summer courtyards slips past you. You grasp it and look around you. You stand in an empty room. Car engines, slips of television and radio leak in around you. You hold the wrinkled remains of a single rose petal in your hands.

“Emergence,” the third release by Bramble, is an audio escape. Soft reverberations, gentle tones and atmospheric hums skillfully lull a listener into a subtle, mental wandering which then slowly releases them back into reality. They emerge into the light, blinking and squinting from its relative magnitude.

Blogger R-T-C posted a review of BLÆRG’s “Dysphoric Sonorities“:

Dysphoric Sonorities is an album that was released by the breakcore group BLÆRG. Lets start the review shall we? Profane Esoterica is a panic break song that is solely driven by its insanity. The background yells make you feel as if your walking down the long hall,in an insane asylum. Thrice Vexed brings on heavy fast paced drums and crushing cymbals. In the beginning of the song it brings a speedy thrasher feel, then gently slows down to a snails pace by the middle. After that it switches directions like a Tornado, but still brings some devastating creativity.Favorite part of this one is the end because it breaks down like an old hip hop song with spice of electronica. Ebullient Letimotif is…only thing that can explain this one is imagine your working on a high tech mech. But your working incredibly fast, this is that song! Crepuscular Harlotry is a bit on the mellow side of this album. This song has a bit of Brazilian flavor with the drums for a while. Then it changes up to a nice sped up rhythm, with an erie dark hallway like vocal. This one is one of my favorites from the album. Unmitigated Verbosity this song returns back the manic/panic chaotic feeling the first few songs displayed. Excepted this one will make you feel as though your very close friends with the drug Speed…zone out on this one because I did. Hermaphrodite Android’s Cumshot Infinity…I’m just gonna leave this song review empty. Check it out for yourself and along with Earth Hurdles. Both of these songs just put me in a fucking zone. I lost 5 minutes listening to these songs. Almost missed the song after. Luminescent Dermabrasion follows suit with the previously songs packing speed, eerie songs but this time its abit more melodic and soothing. This song literally feels like drugs into your system. And with each chaotic note your slipping more into the highness abyss created by BLÆRG. Titanium Cicada feels like another hallway song but not an asylum. This time it feels like your alone in an old spoooky electric amusement park. And then you touch a button and everything just goes bat shit crazy. I’ve tried my best to explain this incredibly creavtive album but you must check it for yourself. After this album I had a high and a headache. Check out BLÆRG - Dysphoric Sonorities!!
