Pseudacusis by Anthony Patereas

Leading Australian contemporary music composer A. Pateras yields a stunning, phantasmic spectralist work for tape and live players, recorded in 2019 at the 17th Sacrum Profanum Festival in Krakow, Poland.

Pseudacusis is the follow-up to Pateras’ work on Sunn 0)))’s Life Metal and Judith Hamann’s Music For Cello and Humming, and features the latter artist among his Tape Septet recordings, which provide the bed for its live performance iteration.

MASSACRE

by Ponomarev + Obrazeena

The deep sub tremble of 2 creative minds! This shit is FOR REAL!  A super-intense and cleansing audio-bath of a new era! In an extremely great and creative mix, these two Russian masterminds take no prisoners! I LOVE this! Radical brutal poetry and in your-face outer space rock! This is an antidote of a massacre – this brilliant BEAST is of healing qualities. Released on Utech Records.
This is a radical new approach and attack on all previous attempts of making noise. Face melting beauty! – Mats Gustafsson

Lucio Capece + Ben Vida

Umwelt is a filigree elision of explorative electro-acoustic disciplines, forming the first collaborative release between two leading lights of avant-garde and experimental music. Acoustic alchemist Lucio Capece, sought after by everyone from Mika Vainio to Vlaislav Dely for his inventive talents, meets Ben Vida, one of computer music’s most interesting composers, in a suite of liminal and surreally absorbing works.

Andrzej Karałow De Invitatione Mortis

This album aims to show a different approach to the genre of opera by combining different stylistic and technical influences. The mystery play character of De invitatione mortis concerns primarily the creation of a sound environment whose center is occupied by the word, leading the course of the entire metaopera, which can be perceived as a ritual. The album is also an attempt to address the issue of merging various genres from the borderline of classical, improvised, and electronic music.

Kasper Toeplitz – Interférences

You may know Kasper. T. Toeplitz from his work, performing with bass guitar and laptop and
usually something that is quite loud? You may not know, or perhaps forgotten, that he started as
a “young contemporary composer” before meeting up with Zbigniew Karkowski and a bunch of Japanese noisemakers. On this CD we have three examples of compositions from the earlier
days in which someone plays instruments along with live electronics. (Vital Weekly)
