Endless transformations and experimenting with sound is natural phase that brings Disharmony in their next work. This time fifth stop and mapping of their territory, Disharmony opens their next phase and with their new album opens the gates into the space of electro underground. Combining industrial elements and idm puts Disharmony into the modern, electro revolution and with this opens next phase and possibility to look into the ambiental waters covered into hybrid structures that seconds cinematic moods and lived vocals. Destructive and at the same time beautiful listening. Those who listen to Disharmony from their beginnings will hear a primary root that has put their electrodes into the time depths. Electronic vibrations are pulsating between organic frequencies and beautiful moods. Disharmony has moved one level higher. Intelligent and modern work!!!

Svarte Greiner - Penpals Forever [2008]



A1 Untitled (11:02)
A2 Silence (5:12)
A3 Untitled (8:54)
B Untitled (13:59)


*STRICTLY LIMITED EDITION - 150 COPIES ONLY FOR THE WORLD!!!* Deaf Center sound sculptor Erik K. Skodvin caps off his recent bout of activity with this now sold-out-at-source cassette from Digitalis' limited edition series. Don't let that oddly cheery title fool you: Penpals Forever is an auditory grimoire of disturbing soundscapes and blurred dissonances. As we've come to expect from such a skilled electronic composer as Skodvin there's an intangibility and fluidity that hides the seams of this music's construction, burying just about any clearly defined instrumental element and casting it into a pool of analogue hiss. As with any music this mysterious and furtive it's bound to carry all manner of subconscious connotations, suggestive of nocturnal spaces, coastal, wave-like motions and cavernous depths, you feel as though you're being taken on a tour of dark corners and abandoned, desolate locales. Although not nearly as explicitly intricate as his Knive debut album, Penpals Forever maintains the gloomy brilliance of Svarte Greiner's career to date, and delivers a piece of music that aligns wonderfully with the characterful, lo-fi eeriness the cassette format can so aptly lend itself to. Amazing stuff - A real collectors item. - Boomkat

Pär Boström, the man behind the acclaimed project KAMMARHEIT offers us a new and unexpected entity under the name Cities Last Broadcast. The Cancelled Earth album is the result of almost a decade of sporadic field recordings mainly recorded in airports, train stations, various tunnels and under numerous bridges all greatly polished and turned into a refined mass of desolate ambience and subtle hypnosis all engulfed in Pär's legendary signature sound. Uniquely packaged in a gatefold book like format with rich and singular artwork made by Boström himself. Through Cities Last Broadcast the buildings themselves will gather to whisper about their inscrutable story.

Lustmord - The Dark Places of the Earth [2009]



1 Fallen (16:00)
2 Atom (13:37)
3 Ashen (13:43)
4 Eon (8:34)
5 Primal (9:56)
6 The Last Days (6:37)

In the previous two Lustmord releases, "Juggernaut" and "[ O T H E R ]", Brian Williams decided to take a new approach and intermix guitar with his erie sound-scapes. Similar to his release with the Melvins, these albums embodied more than his usual dark ambient releases. But while this experimentation was highly acclaimed by most fans, it left some listeners wanting a more "traditional" record.

"The Dark Places of the Earth" is just that. After his release of "[ O T H E R ]", Lustmord decided to strip all of the guitar from the album and remix it down to something more sinister. The end result was a "reduced" version of the album that will leave you with visions of monstrous things dancing in your head. "The Dark Places of the Earth" is a true return to form for Lustmord, not seen since his "Rising" album back in 2006.

This is a limited edition album of only 1000 copies.
