Our third release has been on the tip of our tongue for a while now. We’re very excited, honered and flustered to present a longtime favorite artists of ours, Logreybeam’s newly remastered rerelease of ‘ It’s all just another aspect of mannerism ‘ put out by Type back in 2004. Since then, the album has been an exemplary study of experimental electronic music.
Much to the flavor of logreybeam’s album and his time with Yasume, we also present you 9 remixes from artists just as influential to us : sense, proswell, proem, bot23, setzer, evac, e-sin, ilkae and craque. While listening to these remixes might overwhelm us enough to shed a tear for the deceased m3rck imprint, the creeping, crackling, ticking tinkering of these tracks warm our hearts and our vocal chords scream ‘ IDM is not dead ! ‘.

Par sa touche
personnelle, l’artiste prend par à un processus de transformation. Une musique qu’il définit comme « collective », tout imprégnée qu’elle est Hand Job . Live Theatre de poche
ce qui fait tressaillir le monde. Incarner sa musique…jouer son incarnation… Gaël Cleinow est entier.
Flirtant parfois avec le fil du rasoir, sa mélancolie, projetée dans les baffles, exprime à travers le subtil et l’indicible, la part manquante de l’être. Une souffrance s’apaise et se diffuse dans la trame du tableau, car il faut écouter son travail comme si nous regardions un tableau…
Musique intuitive,
un walkman et quelques vielles bandes,
une guitare trafiquée jouée avec les coudes…
des objets métalliques qui s’entrechoquent
le tout filtré par des effets fait maison, reverb, delay, looper
une touche de circuit bending.
le rouge, le noir, la chair, le sang, les cendres, les os,
sous la flamme du chalumeau.
The EP “Formantprothetik” by Pharmakustik offers five new intracranial bullets of formantshifting, voiceprocessings and intermodulated malformations. The surgical approaches and techniques inside the teratoma regions led to a new acoustic result of clinico-topographical correlation. Pilocytic neurosurgical storms of decompressed dynamics.
A different version of “Formantprothetik” is included on the new limited Pharmakustik-vinyl-LP “Neurochemie” (released in July 2010 on the French label Rotorelief | cat.-nbr.: Rotor0022).

a sequence of instructions can form a simple process. a complex of simple processes can be contained in a block that has a spatial structure. this structure can be changed by reorganization of relationships between simple processes as well as by tuning the settings of the instructions. several tuned blocks can form a composition. if there are more than two blocks, the order can be changed. just modification of the order of each block can make a new composition. just replacement of one block can make global restructures in the entire system. but its not a rule.
ketem are shay nassi (aka mise en scene) and tom kemeny
(aka darmock).
they joined together for a sideproject to explore the boundaries of sound and express themselves together as one, each contributing his own very-unique techniques and perspective.
located in tel aviv, israel, they have created those materials in darmock`s studio during winter 2007.
they are working on a full-length album that will be released this year.
Soundtrack from the short film ‘Film V’ with an alternate (longer) mix.

About Rifts
A soundtrack to while away the time to as Western civilisation inevitably continues its steadily increasing rate of decay (Heathen Harvest, 2009)
In August of 2009, our family traveled to Beijing, Zhengzhou, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong while on our second adoption journey. I made field recordings along the way. During the fall, I edited, layered, mixed and processed portions of the recordings for these 9 compositions. I added a guitar part to each one as a kind of commentary and reflection. The titles come from quirky English phrases I saw displayed on T-shirts worn by Chinese kids across the country.
