The Berlin based Raubbau label has been on the earth for just four years now and already they have released (amongst others) much appreciated releases by Ordo Rosarius Equilibrio, the [ … ]
Various – Le Triomphe Dans L’Endroit De La Duperie
I guess it’s a must to visit this exhibition if you’re in Italy, and as long as you’re there just get this catalogue as a souvenir from your trip. For people who like the long, droney ambient pieces with transcending effects and analog experimentations, as well as loopy madness.
Andrea Marutti and Fausto Balbo – Detrimental Dialogue
Through the use of effects, the sounds that are used this album – and then mainly those noisy escapades – are put into a really nice perspective. The stereo image as well as the depth have an exceptional extra dimension, which makes the album as a whole interesting for modular sound nerds and people who want to hear proof that there is more than your mind can handle.
Chris Connelly – How This Ends
Two tracks with a total playing time from over 50 minutes. Two intriguing soundscapes simply titled “How This Ends”, part one and two. Two great artists to whom this album is dedicated: David Tibet and Gordon Sharp.

Mathieu Ruhlmann – As a Leaf or a Stone
On “As A Leaf Or A Stone” Mathieu Ruhlmann shows us how hard it is to put a label on art. The six tracks are a perfect example of sound art in its purest form.
What it takes to DIY
The setup you need to DIY is actually not to complex or expensive, though it will set you back a few bucks (read: euro or dollar). You can go as [ … ]
Just Do It?
This is the first column of what hopefully will become a series about the ins and outs of Synth Do-It-Yourself. I haven’t decided yet on the exact format, but Synth [ … ]
Enrico Coniglio feat. Manuel P. Cecchinato and Massimo Liverani – Sea Cathedrals
The name Enrico Coniglio is neither new to this scene nor to me. In the past I had the pleasure of reviewing another CD where he was one of the collaborators. The album “dyanMU” was released on the Irish label Psychonavigation Records, but for “Sea Cathedrals” Enrico chose to stay closer to home, as it was released by fellow countrymen Silentes.
