Notes

Round about 150 copies have been produced and distributed.

Under The Flag n9-(Magazine-Belgium-Feb. 1997)

Number 9 of this small yet very good free magazine from Belgium in English language.

I have already posted the number 10 released later in the same year.

Created in Liege by Didier Delhez this free magazine was a great tool for people into industrial/goth/electro and cyberpunk music-culture.

In this issue interviews to Ivan Iusco (Nightmare Lodge, Minus Habens), Diatribe from USA, Testify from Germany, Malaise from Sweden + an American scene report and a good selection of music reviews and general info.
Enjoy it.

EVIDENCE-From the Heart`s Grave-(Not On Label-France-c60-1993)

Amazing 60 minutes cassette by this french duo(?)playing a theatrical  form of goth/electro opera music,excellent recordings quality and few info on the colver sleeve.

This is definetely for people into dark melodies for cloudy paths towards circles of rising stars and decaying satellites.

Enjoy it.

ATARAXIA-Arazzi-(Energeia-Italy-1993)

Ataraxia is an Italian neoclassical Goth opera^[1] band who combine modern technology with archaic instrumentation over various media. They describe their music as a cross "between sacred and profane, ethereal and neo-classical, contemporary and early music". They make researches into the European legends crossing the Greek and Latin myths. Their lyrics are written in many ancient and contemporary languages. Many of their performances take place in locations the band believes to possess specific spiritual qualities. Since the beginning of the group in the late 1980s, they have released more than 20 original LPs.(from wikipedia)

They are still alive and kicking and their webpage is here.

The first edition of this tape was included in a blue fabric bag, with a 22 pages booklet in black & white.All the scans provided here.

I already posted their very first tape Prophetia.

Energeia was a gothic, experimental, industrial and modern classical label and mail order based in Napoli, Italy.

Founded by Davide Morgera (drummer for Underage, cult hardcore punk band from Naples) and Antonio Escalona. 

I am not sure if this label is still active.

Enjoy it.
Ps-this rip is been updated on 24th Jan. 2016-it is much better than the previous one.

MUSA-Inni Funerei-(P.C.R.+B:C.N.-Italy-199?-c70)

Very interesting project this italian trio called Musa.It seems to be all  girls(although nicknames might be misleading) playing clarinet,flute,drums,computer,synth and mixing renaissance music with electro goth.

I do not know much about them and the labels that co-released this tape-there is little info on the cover-sleve and no addresses.The recording is pretty good and the graphic layout is nice too.
