BS030 Cameron Steele - Electrocircus





“This album is partly a science-fiction story about a corrupt regime that turns people into machines, and partly not fiction at all.
Robotic voices are all speech synthesizers having text fed into them. There's also voice samples from an exploitation film, obscure YouTube videos, and musical pop star interviews.” - Cameron Steele

BS029 Bose Ensemble - Eugenic teddybears





"Album "Eugenic teddybears" contains music pieces created in year 2008. It could be a story about toxic childhood in post-soviet state of East Europe, it possible that main inspiration of this material was singing of birds. Obviously, it's really hard to remember that at the moment" - Bose Ensemble

BS028 Fescal - Omnia





Fescal’s recent wayward plunge into the dominion of dark experimental music demonstrates that not only is he a deft of beatless dark ambient drones but of melodic dark electron-organic music as well.
The title track “Ginger Baker” is a noisy venture into an opaque world of undulating drones thundering above subtle textures of electronics and samples.
The aptly named “Vulgar and Kitsch” follows with the catchy babble of strong synth and keyboard samples along with heavy crackles and glitches.
With “Bomdila Monastery” the emphasis is on an assortment of repetitive percussive sounds and looping brazen sonorities.
Fifth “Pork Pie and Beans” is a cold, mellow composition with a beautifully simple minor-keyed melody, sad synths, programmed and brisk, ominous electronics flittering about in the background.
What sounds like sound samples played in reverse set above layers of rolling percussion give “Shrimp Cake” a surreal atmosphere!
“Evening Butterflies” is a playful, abstract collage of thick drones, curious electronics, and static noise.

BS027 KraftiM - Jobin





il était une fois une poubelle....

Once upon a time there was a bin.
Filled with orphanaged soundsnippets from an artist who hesitated what to do with it. Along came a soundarchitect who just learned to behave more ecologically responsable. And so the bin was searched carefully, parts were scrubbed, put in a new home, chopped, treated, refined, remodelled and combined until 7 tracks came out.
The artist is Joanne Gabriel, the sounds are recycled by KraftiM. The titles are derived from the original tracknames and should be pronounced in french...

and now there is Jobin
