Tomoroh Hidari-The Black Star Variations-(Laridae-Austria-2011)


 In 2012, Tomoroh Hidari will release his light absorbing ambient monster "Some Stars Not Yet Black Holes" as double 12" on Record Label Records.

Due to the extreme mass of this project, laridae was able to utilize the caused divergency in space-time, to release the spin-off album "The Black Star Variations" even BEFORE its own source release.

So, we invite you to swap the Star of Betlehem with Hidari's Black Stars of dark ambient and wish you all a merry saturnalia!


"Tomoroh Hidari encapsulates its rugged outer shell composed of tethered wiring, low bass rumbling and an industrial pulse as it enriches the core with atmospheric and rhythm bending skills. Each derivation compliments the other as glitched life forms merge to the surface just as quickly as they dissipate. Originally intended for live adaptations, “The Black Star” collects itself and breaks down into five enriched pieces that are both mechanical and inspired in shape."

KRATZER ‎– Irrtum!-(Irre Tapes-Germany-c20-1982)

 

Kratzer was a short lived early 1980s synth pop / new wave project by Peter Lieske, Uwe Lieske and Klaus Pöschner.

 Irre Tapes is been covered in tusi blog many times now.run by Matthias Lang which evolved out of the IRRE Fanzine he published regularly during the early 1980s covering New Wave, Post Punk and the German Underground.
With his 3rd Tape Compilation Ein Herz In Not he started IRRE Tapes which was mainly active in the late 80s/early 90s and released material by the likes of Brume, Maeror Tri and City Of Worms and loads of lesser-known and stylistic different artists (Unpleasant Surprise, The Fuckedtones, Magic Moments At Twilight Time, Doc Wör Mirran) covering the whole range of the Independent Underground from Experimental Electronica to Guitar Pop.
In true DIY spirit, he supported the international network of small labels and fanzines through editing the free IRRE Newsletter to spread info and contacts and writing occasional reviews for various publications. Most of his Compilations should be seen as an attempt to promote lesser-known artists and labels. Without a doubt, he was one of the driving forces of the German Tape Scene.
He finally called the label days quits in 1994/1995 but soon re-appeared as collaborating and networking artist Mr. Moto (2).(from Discogs)click me

A very personal fanzine by Sarah Tea-Rex, 44 A5 pages full of emotions, feelings and thoughts about stress, anxiety, traumas, abuse, mental institutions and related subjects.

FUNEREAL MOON-Grim...Evil...(Difuntes Productions-Mexico-1997)

 


Funereal Moon was formed in 1994 from the ashes of Leteo, a solo project of Impure Ehiyeh. Following a demo, their first album 'Beneath The Cursed Light Of A Spectral Moon' was released in 1996, followed by two vinyl EPs in 1997 and a cassette MLP. Funereal Moon's unusual style, the fact that they were an ambient group first and a black metal band second, made them stand out from the black metal underground. Their music of the years 1994 to 1998 can be described as archaic and occult black ambient: murky, distorted synth tones, sparse samples and field recordings, and an array of grumbling, screaming, or speaking voices, with only few and not less unconventional black metal tracks in between. From 1998 to 2007 the band remained silent and only commemorative/best of compilations were released during those years. Funereal Moon returned in 2008 with 'Satan's Beauty Obscenity'. Their style of black metal, although less ambient-ish now, was strange and unusual as ever. In 2009 however, Impure Ehiyeh decided to reinvent Funereal Moon as a much faster and cruder black metal band. This radical change of style towards a primitive, chaotic and violent bestial black metal is documented on their last 4 albums. (all info from Discogs) click me

UNSONG ‎– The Frailty Of Angels, The Treason Of People -(Macrophonies Org-UK-2002)

One of the quietist starts to an album to come through my front door in quite a while. however, this first piece builds into a chaotic assemblage of disembodied voices and simple but effective electronic pulses, added to this is the sound that could be a heavily treated marimba but probably isn't. the title track on this disc is a beautiful piece of atonal electronics whose morphology has been executed exquisitely. the spatiality has to be admired, i'm listening to this on speakers but i think it would be an excellent listen through headphones. this track alone is over 20 minutes long and it never tires or seems drawn out, every minute has been utilised to the full... there's six tracks in total on this disc and none are 'fillers', each and every one of them stands out on their own merit. a very well accomplished album (particularly for a debut) and highly recommended."

The CD Comes packaged in a 7" sized fold out sleeve which includes cover on disc, numbered out of #1000,lyrics and graphics and a part of the money raised with it was going to the Biblioteca Social Recostuir,which I image to be a libertarian library.

The Rorschach Garden- Love and Respect-(Self Released-Bandcamp-Germany-1998/1999)


 

back in the last century. After neglecting TRG some years before i slowly started to reactivate this project because i fell in love with my wife which was almost exactly 19 years ago. She was the only one who received this album from me. Now is the time to make it public.
It maybe not the music what you expect but give it a chance. Thank you!

DEATH RACE-Death Race-(Self Released-2005)


 7 tracks on this self released CD-R by this combo ,I must admit I don`t know much about it, all I know is that it was recorded in 2005, and I guess they are British! They play a nice form of heavy stoner rock, the music is well recorded and the spartan cover sleeve reports very little info.

Enjoy it.
