godanti-sex anti-wiretapping (made in taiwan)” compact disc

  • anti-sex anti-wiretapping (made in taiwan)
this was listed previously as being on little enjoyer - it is in fact a split release on both gameboy and little enjoyer...

just an excellent disc from the duo of leif erik sundström (percussion) & bryan eubanks (normally on wind instruments, but here working with electronics; tape machines, self-styled feedback systems) - it’s either an immaculately conceived freely improvised work or a meticulously consctruced electro-acoustic one... either way; damn impressive.

anti-sex, anti-wiretapping : cd

co-released this with jyrk & little enjoyer & wish i was able to do more to convince everyone how rad and essential this group is. i had taken to referring to them as "amm filtered through crust punks" but after meeting them & seeing how truly un-crust they are, i can only describe them as "amm filtered through adventurous, foward-thinking young gentlemen" but that doesn't do them much justice. you'll be hearing more & more from these boys - together and individually - real soon.

  • cut strata
gameboy press release...
gb97
david kendall :
triumph of individuality : cdr

the title for this one is most appropriate as mr. kendall's work and vision rest in a realm all his own. working with digital noise in a time when the genre titans are dusting off their analog gear again, kendall's intense programming stands out, but it stands tall.

combining elements of improvisation, composition, field recordings and pure noise, kendall's work is both sharp and vivid. this one is crisp. analog purists beware.

cdr edition of 100.

michael bernstein / mike shifletlive, new york” compact disc recordable

  • live, new york
gameboy press release...
gb96
michael r. bernstein & mike shiflet :
live, new york : cdr

synthesizer, laptop and beard power combined for the second time in september, 2006. invited to play the erstquake festival by joh abbey & chris wolf, bernstein & shiflet hit the stage for a set focused solely on modulation and movements, not exactly what the crowd wanted to hear.

post-festival internet responses ranged from "pretty boring with little to engage me" to "my least favourite set of the fest" to " not at all into [it]". one or two people may have also had something good to say. the fellas hiding behind the computer screen and the overly large synth stand behind it 100% though.

expect more (studio recordings) from this duo in the not-so-distant future.

pbk / bmg1” compact disc recordable

  • bmg/pbk appetite for clarity
  • pbk/bmg eyes of the mellified man
  • bmg/pbk absurdity of metaphysical solitude
  • pbk/bmg corners and fear of oblivion
  • bmg/pbk praising suicide from a well set table

pbk & bmg :
1 : cdr

michigan master pbk has been making beautifully composed noise since i was in grade school and bmg - (aka brent gutzeit) should be known to most as ceo of television power electric and as an established kranky recording artist. these two have a wealth of knowledge in the experimental music realm and skills with almost as much range.

with their vast combined talents, the gentlemen produce five uniquely diverse works here, spanning the borders of various subgenres and utlizing everything they could get their hands on. in their warped world guitars become gongs, computers are transformed into human hearts and vinyl breathes. believe it.

sewer electionlast breath” compact disc recordable

  • last breath
gameboy press release...
gb93
sewer election :
last breath : cdr

sweden's finest forgoes his usual dense harsh noise in favor of equally dense dirty drones. it's still a wall of sound, but far from impenetrable. this wall is more likely to crumble with the slightest touch and leave you buried beneath the rubble. it's a different, but equally effective, methond of simultaneous attack and defense.

a short but epic piece, "last breath" unravels in under 20 minutes, but the coma it will induce is guaranteed to last for hours if not days. indeed this disc makes a perfect soundtrack for those precious moments spent dying, living, or lingering anywhere between the two.

cdr edition of 100. dedicated to dagmar lassander.

  • lexington
  • nashville
...as i was at both the boston and lowell shows and don’t remember a thing; i will conjecture that they were both great shows (i do remember one thing; lasse didn’t use a computer, instead preferring to bash an electric guitar while jon manipulated some pedals and a mixer...) - regardless, this is a disc of recordings from the last jazzkammer tour of the us; both lasse and jon in fine form throughout...

jazkamer
proud to be un american

recorded live across the united states of america, may/june 2004. edited and mastered back home in europe, december 2005. special thanks to howard stelzer for booking and driving.

“fifth time i've worked with lasse on a release and third time with john hegre, but the first time with their long-standing jaz(z)kam(m)er duo. this disc documents the highlights of their 2004 us tour - both on and off stage. abrasive guitar-driven noise augmented with audience banter and merch booth ponderings as the mics continue to run.”

clonsudden ionospheric disturbances” compact disc recordable

  • tropsphere
  • ionosphere
gameboy press release...
recorded at unit 1125 (nov. 2005)

clon is a name you might not be familiar with, but you probably know the man behind it. as one half of the cornucopia, jorge castro has put out dozens of high-quality releases and toured the us (most recently hive mind and luasa raelon) and europe several times.

clon is jorge's new solo venture. it isn't a drastic shift from cornucopia, but definitely has more grit. sheer force and impeccable composition: the finest aspects of classic merzbow & aube releases reimagined for the harsh digital era.

cdr edition of 100 in color cover with hand-painted insert.”

raglani / scenic railroadssplit” compact disc

  • raglani - autumn lights
  • raglani - american grotesque
  • raglani - for a.h.

  • scenic railroads - more inside jokes
  • scenic railroads - conflict of disinterest
  • scenic railroads - now i know why i’m hungry
  • scenic railroads - stop snitchin’
last release on gameboy before mike packed it up and re-located to japan for a year... a split between raglani and mike’s duo with joe panzner, scenic railroads. by now the esp-mind-link between mike and joe has developed into near-mythical proportions, their computerized dronescapery reaching new heights...

hadn’t heard of raglani prior to this, but his half is an eye-opener of crude electronic spuh. definitely the nicest looking gameboy release yet, the blue-violet creep over chipboard is especially lovely ...
gameboy press release...
raglani: sine/square wave generator, electrics and places. dave stone plays saxophone on track 2

scenic railroads is joe panzner and mike shiflet


after both putting in the cdr dues, joe raglani and scenic railroads decided it was time to take it to the pro-pressed level.

raglani's 3 ambient compositions and scenic's 4 digital improvisations play excellently off each other creating a disc with a consistent, organic flow. 52 minutes of noise underground's prettier, lusher underbelly. if these dudes were european they'd be getting 1,000 euro guarantees by now.

an edition of 500. co-released with raglani's pegasus farms records and printed at the infamous thumbprint press.

noumena / season of discontentsplit” seven inch single record

  • noumena “platform for a new religion”
  • season of discontent “mankind gets electrocuted while the the others sit back and laugh”
second gameboy release, rocking a moon, pa address. mike shiflet on one side, manhandling the divining-rod, seasons of discontent on the other, doing god-only-knows-what.
gameboy press release...
an electronic gathering only ohio could spawn. we met the seasons at an assuck show in cleveland forever ago. conversation on BN lead to noise talk and tape exchange. we were hooked. here's what came of it:

noumena adds new-found 303 chirp to their feedback-drenched guitar work, whilest season of discontent contribute an extremely dense, unidentifiable wall of tapes, computers, vocals, effects and who-knows-what-else.

nice offering all-around. on gold vinyl and packaged in aluminum foil covers with bee image affixed.
