.at_on + v4w.enko . Pack
A very finetuned atmospheric minimal glitch collaboration by Ukrainian artists .at/on and v4w.enko.
This release also includes a number of audio visuals by v4w.enko and aiuto, which puts the music in the context of smooth colorful glitch designs, combining hardware sound with max/msp signal processing.
The result is a strangely effective, stunning collection of warm experimental glitch ambient that incites with minimum effort.

Edu Comelles . Mensa – Braid Heritage
After his “Nordic Recordings“ and “Southern Recordings“ Edu Comelles aka Mensa returns to Resting Bell with a new two-track-EP. Besides his work as composer and sound designer Edu also runs the fantastic Audiotalaia-netlabel.
Both tracks on “Braid Heritage“ are alternate (extended) versions of compositions originally
released on the album “Moorland“ via Test Tube. The work is strongly related to Edu’s recent sound project “Walking Composition“, a great concept between technology and nature. The general sound is shifting between deep droning elements and more rhythmical glitches and bleeps, layered on top of each other and beautifully woven together.
All recordings done in Edinburgh’s Heritage of Braid between June and August 2009. This album is a live recording using Walking Compositions Material. Edited and mastered in Valencia, Spain.
Special thanks to: Martin Parker, Andrew Spitz and Chris Bathgate who encouraged me to stay on the forest.

Pharmakustik . Narcolapse
NARCOLAPSE 2010 is the electromorphing result of original musique-concrète-recordings developed by Siegmar Fricke between 1981 and 1985; these recordings contained sources like shortwave-radio-signals, electroacoustic material and piano-treatments. After an intense archive-research in between April and June 2010 these recordings have been assembled, dehissed and optimized in frequency response. Resulting from the remastering-process of those recordings, a new complex intermodulatory texture has been created: The six narcotic sound-pools of NARCOLAPSE 2010 unify for the first time different musique-concrète basics by SF; completely re-arranged, filtered and combined with new electromodulated recordings.

Alexei Biryukoff . Talmenka
“This is my first album devoted purely to field recordings.
Talmenka is the name of the river in Altai Region and a village that stands on it. It’s been a very inspiring place for me, surrounded by the woods, lakes and two rivers.
So here is a bunch of tracks I recorded on my several trips there.
I am sure next time I will come up with something more conceptual, but meanwhile I wanted to share a few local frequencies that are more like a sound diary of last summer.
The artwork that goes along with this release are photos of the places where the recordings were done.
Hope you will enjoy the tracks and the artwork.” – Alexei Biryukoff

Cezary Gapik . Vol.45
Cezary Gapik (also know as CEZAR) was born in Czestochowa, Poland in 1963.
He started his musical activity in 1980 as an animator of punk rock bands. Soon enough he discovered new sounds which were brought by the punk rock rebellion. Cabaret Voltaire, Public Image Ltd. or other “new wave” bands had an enormous influence on the perception of music by Cezar.
Plunging into the fundaments of musical avant-garde (Karlheinz Stockhausen, Morton Feldman, Luc Ferrari, La Monte Young), the appearance of new creative possibilities (computer) together with the works of artists like Mick Harris (Lull, Scorn), Illusion of Safety, etc. had definitively shaped the musical direction towards which Cezary Gapik follows. His musical creation is based on drones and micro-tonal sound planes interlaced with abstract “images” (field recordings) or computer-processed synthetic sounds (glitch). In his compositions one has the opportunity to feel the fascination of the artists like Luc Ferrari, Philip Glass, La Monte Young and the masters of isolationist ambient – Lull, Thomas Köner, Nocturnal Emissions. After individual experiments with dark electronic vibes in the mid-nineties Cezar met in 1998 Bartlomiej Kuzniak (bass, sax & electronics musician), with whom he created QG/GQ project.
A little trace of this cooperation is a track “Z1” on ”C9H13O3N” album released in limited, 200-pieces edition under the independent label Polycephal. The year 2000 brought another collaboration of Cezar with musicians like B. Kuzniak (mentioned above), Joe Giardullo (sax – New York’s jazz avant-garde), Dawid Kosiarkiewicz (sax, prepared piano), Zbigniew Szmatloch (prepared guitar & electronics) and Andrzej Zaleski (drums) which evolved into a concert tour across Poland. The memorable concerts were performed in Warsaw (Centre of Modern Art in Ujazdowski Castle) and in Szczecin (“Kana” Theatre). Part of the Warsaw concert has been included on the “Dokument. Program Strefa” compilation released in 2005.
Cezar is very often invited for co-operation by grind-core and death-metal bands like YATTERING, for whom he composed drones which were used to fill the gaps between tracks on the album “Murder Concept” (2000). He can be called a “fulltime” intro & outro specialist for the band INFERNAL WAR which with his contribution released albums “Terrorfront” (2005) and “Redesecration” (2007).
Cezar has also an episode with computer gaming IT Industry on his account where he composed an ambient soundtrack for the PC game “Painkiller” released in 2004 and acclaimed by critics. Up to year 2006 Cezar has composed in his own self-created studio a large volume of sound material which he regularly released on CD-R discs in limited editions for his friends and fans. Originating from this collection – the album “Artefakt” (2000) has been highly valued and recognized by critics and finally re-released by a netlabel Torrentech in 2009. The years 2007 and 2008 can be considered as a pause in Cezar’s creation while the year 2009 brought an increased artist’s activity.
After the re-release of “Artefakt” and release by a Russian netlabel DNA Production of the retrospective compilation „The Collection 1998-2006” Cezar brought to life his own label – C.G. Drone Records. The first “fruit” of this project was a mini CDr (3”) „The Limestone EP”. At the same time Cezar tightened his cooperation with DNA Production which resulted in his new EP to be also available for download (mp3 & FLAC format) from this netlabel’s catalogue.
The year 2009 has also brought a new cooperative project – this time with German ambient musician Siegmar Fricke which concluded with an album CEZAR | PHARMAKUSTIK – „Enukleacja”. The album could be described as a cool, isolationist and dark-ambient creation.
The year 2010 opened with the release in January by French netlabels Le Colibri Necrophile, Earsheltering and M.i.r.e.n.a. of the compilation „Nektar 2017 Volume 2”. Cezar’s contributed to this production with the track „#0421”. In February C.G. Drone Records released „Zaduszki (All Saints Day) EP” which is a re-edition of the tracks previously composed in the years 1998 and 1999 under the same title. What concerns the future – “there is still a lot of unrest in my soul which I desire to transform into sound” – says Cezary Gapik.
Tracklist:
1. #0436 (04:34)
2. #0435 (11:52)
3. #0437 (11:12)
4. #0438 (13:28)

Hervé Perez and Martin Archer . The Leaf Factory Fallback
A second CD from this collaboration by Sheffield’s finest pair of electroacoustic composer / improvisers. It is essentially a live concert recording reworked and added to in the studio. In form it is 2 carefully orchestrated climaxes followed by a melodic coda. There are no preconceptions about fitting into any recognised genre. Reduced activity improv, free jazz, beats and textured soundscapes all play a part here. Much of the background ambience comes from Hervé’s field recordings made in the open air in southern Italy. These natural sounds are carefully woven into the music. The dynamic is of music played in front of an audience rather than collaged together in the studio.
Hervé Perez
Hervé’s sonic work pans from composition, film sound and installations to live performances. From his time at art school, encounters with acoustic ecology, electro-acoustic composition, psychoacoustics and related philosophy of sound production and design allowed him to merge his compositions for instruments on the one hand, and field recordings and digital work in the other hand with the fluidity of gesture of his visual work. He makes a racket with the free improvisation collective – gated community – playing guitar and various resonant objects. He collaborates with improvisers, in France and in the UK or anywhere a resistance emerges. His solo work on laptop sometimes accompanies visuals and films from the composition and design of soundtracks to improvised soundscapes. Sometimes you have to dream up your own. His laptop rattles the nerves of academia in the dark spaces of acous-mania. Some people scream. Some bleed to death. Disruption is everywhere. In the safe place of the sitting room, in the near inane, in the religious amnesia, in the lull of beta sofa and tv procurantism. Economia verbalis. Hypocritia interestus. The architecture of immobility. Frémir le silence. Every wall has a crack. Find the wave length. He is also developing his technique for soprano saxophone in a search for resolutely organic sounds for the mind and the body.
