Reviews

Various - Auto-Reverse
Quite an accomplished collection of tracks that follow an innovative concept not seen elsewhere. The idea of producing a label compilation comprised of cover versions is interesting and original with a number of strong tracks being contributed from Normograph, Missing in Action, Foretaste, Even More, The Rorschach Garden, Joy Electric and File Not Found. If modern synthpop with a distinct retro flavour is your thing, you could do a lot worse than check this out.

Reviews

Imminent - Cask strength
As an album, "Cask Strength" works on two levels, subtle enough to be background music and aggressive and intricate enough to hold a listener at full attention - it is a force to be reckoned with in the genre of IDM and glitch.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Spherical Disrupted - Quasar
Having previously dealt with more earthly or abstract imagery, Germany's ambient experimentalist Spherical Disrupted now turns his attention to space and one of its strangest mysteries. All in all, an excellent soundtrack for an evening of amateur astronomy or of reading up on astrophysics until your brain feels strained and needs some audio soothing.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Amon Vs. Mortar - Amon Vs. Mortar
The formula this release has is well thought out - I just think the 'experience' could have been enhanced a bit if a few of the tracks were shortened or had more variation though.

Reviews

Lewsor - No Error
An absolute must have for anyone who loves Digital Hardcore and Industrial as it takes both genre's and gives them a thorough shaking. I imagine that live is where this album will absolutely destroy.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Dogpop - Jahrmarkt Der Verlorenen Kinder
If you imagine Einsturzende Neubauted going out with the Arafnas to a carnival and meeting Tristan Tzara's ghost while they're at it, you won't be very far off the mark as to what this album sounds like.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Everything Goes Cold - vs. General Failure
Everything Goes Cold is a gritty addition to the metal/electro hybrid genre from Eric Gottesman, Kenny Pardo, and James Webb, which brings a sense of tongue-in-cheek humor to the general serious content of the genre. "vs. General Failure" album is a fun ride full of humour and aggressive patterns for any fan of the metal-electro genre and prior Bit Riot releases.

Reviews

Atmogat - Trigger Event
Danny Prusseit and Toni Polkowski prove themselves as masters in the field of IDM carving a niche with this latest release from Impulsive Art, "Trigger Event", a release which sets the mood for waltzes through dark flickering hallways in a neon metropolis. This is the soundtrack for the modern cyberpunk fan.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Genetic Transmission - Spirals
Although it's frustrating I admire the way in which the producer presents this as a formal exercise in listening and attempts to claim the listener's attention for the duration (if not always successfully). There's extensive use of found sound here and a sense of some obscure narrative unfolding in a way more typical of musique concrete than of industrial.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Scum From The Sun - Scum From The Sun
Over four tracks Scum From The Sun do tend to dabble more with the psychedelic than anything else; slick bass lines and hypnotic, but unchallenging drum structures for the most part give way to trippy drugged out sounding synth structures that whir and spiral on their way to some other plane of existence; and to be honest you don't want anything over the top from the rhythm sections when dealing with this genre of music.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

V/A - ZigZag Vol.2
Elektrotribe shows potential to continue releasing good and diverse techno, ready-made for the nonstop Berlin party scene, though whether it ever rivals established and innovative label peers like Kompakt and BPitch Control remains to be seen.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Gerostenkorp & Neon Rain - Io Non Ho Paura
Maybe I have missed the point with too totally opposite forces working with each other (or against) on such a release, but neither then do I really have the gumption to get bothered about that either.

Release

Savage Ideal - Ghosts Dance Lightly on the Puncheon Floor
A brooding analysis of historical landscape... Songs inspired by and dedicated to Southern History. All tracks are largely based around a vast library of found sounds / field recordings gathered during a month long Appalachian sojurn in April, 2008. Sound collage meets post industrial meets folk. Dan Barrett of Worms of the Earth collaborated on / arranged / wrote tracks 1, 9, and 12. Acoustic guitar meets powernoise in Bob Moog's backyard.

Reviews

Error Response - Zen
"Zen" flows immeasurably well, being neither too swift nor too sedate for too long, but rather pooling and cascading in turn, progressing from serene and laidback to taut and wonky, from cut-up and textured to melodic and hopeful. It's juxtapositions like these that give listeners a clue that, with Error Response, Arnold is at the top of his game. The funk, the atmospheres and (especially) the glimmering noir, all executed in a style clean and crisp as freshly minted hundred dollar bills, lend mysterious "Zen" exactly that - meditation, koan, satori...
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

ESA - The Immaculate Manipulation
A truly magnificent collage of sounds and styles, shifting indeed immaculately through any electronic subgenre worth nodding to, this record is a must have. http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Sturqen - Piranha
If you're sick of the crashing, numbing beats, and need something more stimulating, Sturqen has what you require. Alternatively, if you've already delved into the possibilities of harder drum'n'bass, such as that of Yuki Tendo, you've come to the right place. "Piranha" is frightening and unconventional but quite brilliant.  
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Madeline Puckette - Tsar Bomba (pre-release)
Rooted firmly in the synthesized pop sound and DIY underground dance of electroclash, "Tsar Bomba" also reflects Puckette's early riot grrrl leanings and an independent, girl-power aesthetic. Characterized by half-sung/half-spoken vocals and growling synths, the release touches on themes of primacy, jealousy, affluence and diabolic immoderation. Upon further reflection, perhaps that's where the arms race intimations arise after all.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Tonal y Nagual - La Sierra Mecánica
The paradox between the charm of the lo-fi delivery and the conventions of what is technically acceptable or desirable in modern music largely permeates "La Sierra Mecánica". Generally, I feel the tunes, lyrics and interesting arrangements win over concerns about poor singing and occasionally clumsy guitar work; the humour, wit and creativity evident throughout make this album something special.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Lolita Terrorist Sounds - Rudiments and Bases for the New Millennium
This release will be a favorite of the experimental scene but a little too unique for the mainstream. But this will be the mainstream's loss as this album is brilliant in its simplicity and ability to draw the listener into the fray via arrangements and ambiences.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Vlüba - Live At Erks
More than just a record, "Live at Erks" is a spiritual experience which deserves to be listened carefully and in a proper state of mind, in order to fully enjoy the journey it will take you to, a journey which no one can figure out the real destination..
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

13th Monkey - Redefining the Paradigm of Bang
At the end, there's an impression that this is something that would be extremely effective and fun in a packed dancefloor setting (preferably played live). Surely, scene-specific prime DJ material but, for home or casual listening, it will have limited appeal or revisitation potential (unless you're a sucker for 4/4 beats).
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

The Peoples Republic Of Europe - Babylon
 The production quality is high, there is an almost overly wide range of styles on display and plenty of interesting sounds and textures are thrown into the mix. Some of the more comedy ideas tend to grate however, and the way they've so desperately thrown themselves at the "scene" does mean that numerous clichés slip through the net, both in terms of sound and imagery.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Voide - Humachine
As a whole, this release shows an artist with promise but lacking the versatility and attention to detail

Savage Ideal - Ghosts Dance Lightly on the Puncheon Floor

Reviews

Displacer - X Was Never Like This...
"X Was Never Like This" offers a small collection of new material and a selection of good quality remixes exploring different aspects of Morton's original works. His ability to mix classic and modern electronic sounds along with a myriad of elements drawn from a diverse range of different music styles gives Morton's music complexity which in turn unveils new depth with further listening.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Pine Tree State Mind Control - Esquimaux
This 3" CD-r is maybe not the best Pine Tree State Mind Control release ever, but it contains a couple of left-overs too good to delete. A must have for completists and a little snack to satisfy your ears until the new CD is being released.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

.cut feat. Gibet - A Stale Affair: Bleach Bride Remixed
So in all honesty this release didn't bring me closer to God, or closer to the art of .cut featuring Gibet, but the 20 minutes weren't a complete loss after all.  
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Dead Man's Hill - Speaking In The Tongues Of The Universal Reporter: Live In Hof Ter Loo
The best compliment for this album is the non-stop energy it sends out. You can feel the impact the performance must have had on that cold day in Belgium, which is emphasized by the fact this release is already sold out (it was limited to 50 copies).

V/A - Kod.eX Compilation
In a nutshell, the "Kod.eX Compilation" is an amazing compilation that successfully manages to integrate a variety of seemingly unrelated styles into a coherent whole with nearly flawless flow, testimony of the talent and skill of those involved in the Kod.eX nights, from the organizers to the artists who performed there. Definitely a must for anyone interested in good music.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Mono-Amine - Like A Machine
"Like a Machine" is as solid as a power noise record can get, with an exemplary balance of variety in sound and focus in strength.

Reviews

Zilverhill - Latent-Active-Descent
This is only a limited release, which is a real shame, as it deserves a wide audience. The arrangements breathe and the elements shimmer in a way that shows that real craftsmanship and attention to detail have gone into what is one of the most satisfying albums of the year. There is nothing revolutionary or dramatically innovative about any of the elements here, yet they cohere into something that often feels fresh and instantly memorable, leaving lasting traces and compelling and rewarding repeat listening.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Geneviéve Pasquier - Le Cabaret Moi
Though it has its failings and in some aspects it may not sound particularly fresh, "Le Cabaret Moi" is nevertheless a relatively solid offering by Geneviéve Pasquier which could have benefited greatly from a couple of different production and aesthetic choices. Not an album to listen regularly but certainly one to go back to on occasion and rediscover the odd forgotten track.

Interview

M.M. - Zhelezobeton
Zhelezobeton is a label and distributor of all sorts of experimental, noise, industrial and other not so conventional music. We release in small editions the music of our friends and distribute the releases of other labels which are more or less spiritually close to us. We have two sub-labels: Zhelezobeton Film for releasing video materials and Muzyka Voln for releasing music in more definite ambient/drone direction.

Reviews

The Bureau Of Nonstandards - The Bureau Of Nonstandards
The Bureau of Nonstandards decided to present the performances without any further processing and even though this decision brings a nice charm to the the album it might scare off a lot of listeners who are used to more polished productions. Those who take the album for what it is will certainly enjoy the sound adventures and realize that the Bureau of Nonstandards's approach to music is quite nonstandard indeed.

The first in a planned trilogy of EPs, "O" and its successor, "(O)" (2009), are replete with much of the same: mournful, shimmering modulations, acoustic guitar and plaintive voice, all bundled together with lo-fi simplicity and a healthy measure of the open range to boot.

Release

Phllox - h[a]unted
h[A]unted is not easy to categorize, some say dark ambient, industrial, electro and others... describe this release as a soundscape for the listeners to play with emotions and nostalgia. From anger to sadness, from happiness to furiousness, compositions took place at various occasions along 2009.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/interviews.htm


Reviews

RMSonce - Reflections
As far as drones and experimental electronics are concerned, Francesc Martí excels. "Reflections" is this Barcelona artist's third release under the moniker RMSonce. Rather than being an indulgent drowning in monotonous layers of analogue drones and abstract, sampled noise, the nine-track album keeps us guessing. Generally accessible, short-format compositions make "Reflections" a good choice for the inquisitive, but perhaps too concise for the connoisseur in pursuit of detached, infinite spaces.

Interview

Dave Leach - Vendetta Music
The Denver-based Vendetta Music has been active as a music label since the mid-2000s and, since its inception, has accumulated a significant back-catalog of releases. It is home to a solid roster of artists from the field of dark electronics - from established acts like Xotox, Nachtmar, and W.A.S.T.E. to lesser-known ones like Necrotek, Mono-Amine and The Peoples Republic Of Europe. In addition to the label activity, Vendetta Music is also involved in the organization of music events, of which the most recent was the Vendetta Music Festival in September 2009.

Reviews

Cullen Miller - Stolen Nature
Detroit/San Francisco sound designer Cullen Miller really has his head screwed on. You get the impression that he's never even heard of IDM when you filter through the press release surrounding this album, but that's what you get from the opening number which, as with all the other tracks, is 'untitled'. Subtle tones and instrumentation are dragged along with almost dub-like bass and are lifted with organic elements such as acoustic guitar, a gentle warm opening to an album that is immediately engaging.

Reviews

Thermometerometer - Who Measures The Measurers?
Well, there's noise, there's experimental and then there's... Thermometerometer. Flips, clicks, drones, buzzes, pops and even glitches are thrown together and have things done to them that they could never have imagined in their wildest nightmares on "Who measures the measurers?", the first release from the Immigrant Breast Nest label.

Torrent Vaccine - Tentative Response
This is an impressive debut album. As noted before, it sounds very different to just about everything else (and just try comparing it to Torrent Vaccine's labelmates on BitRiot), and this certainly makes for an ear-catching release. It's not perfect, though, but a second album should help to smooth off those ragged bits (particularly the second half that sags a little) and is keenly awaited. Recommended.

Transistor6 - Virgin Venom
Well-produced and not particularly demanding, "Virgin Venom" has all that it needs to have broad appeal to a relatively wide audience of casual listeners. Ironically, these are precisely the kind of people who will not easily come across the work of Transistor6. A shame, really.

Violence and the Sacred performing as Viosac - You Are Planning To Enjoy The Apocalypse
Put a bunch of aging Throbbing Gristle fans in a room with stacks of analog equipment. Lock the door and come back a couple of decades later and you may discover something quite startling: instead of the decomposed remains of a creative collaboration, you will instead be faced with the newly-energised and thoroughly interesting experimental music project that is Violence and the Sacred, or Viosac.

Talbot & Deru - Genus
Philip Glass and Steve Reich aren't composers I ever expected to be brought to mind by an Ant-Zen release, but this is just what happened on hearing "Genus", a joint release between Ant-Zen and Dear Oh Dear Records, the label of British composer John (Joby) Talbot, working here with American electronica artist Deru (Benjamin Wynn). Their collaboration is the soundtrack to a dance work based on Darwin's discovery of evolution.

Reviews

Defrag - Lament/Element
"Lament/Element" is a perfect chaos of mood and mode of expression, ranging from dnb to glitch/experimental to ambient orchestral grandeur - an album which is a must have for fans of intelligent electronics. This will be a return selection in my collection showing wear and tear of multiple repeat cycles in my stereo.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

dISHARMONY - Evolution
It may not feature the next big dancefloor filler, but an older, wiser audience cannot fail to sit up and take notice. Taken as individual tracks, or in its entirety, dISHARMONY have, indeed, evolved on this album, taking their compositions one step further towards enlightenment than many of their contemporaries would dare to.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Gerostenkorp - Terre Brûlée
More IDM than experimental per se, but there's still nearly as much attention given to the process as the result, making for a well-balanced (if unclassifiable) album that will resonate equally well with fans of either.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews.htm

Aere Aeternus - Humanity Needs No Funeral
This is not to say that Aere Aeternus aren't honest about the message they are trying to convey. Perhaps they should consider re-evaluating their aesthetics and their discourse to avoid the clichés mentioned above or, perhaps (and quite difficult), reformulate them into something more convincing.

("Submission for Radio Futura" with music selection by M.)
This was the 'mixtape' that was submited to and accepted by http://www.radiozero.pt/ - Radio Zero for a participation in the Radio Futura initiative (the 'official' radio of the 2009 edition of http://futureplaces.org/ - Future Places digital media and online culture festival/meeting). The actual live radio broacast took place on October 17th between 6-7pm but, for those that missed it, here's the original submission, without any spoken comments.
Unfortunately, the exact tracklisting was never noted down (lame) and there's a couple of pieces that I can't identify anymore.

Reviews

Fhievel - Pipe Smoking on a Balloon
A variety of electronic drones, warm crackling noise and many other subtle electronic noises. "Pipe Smoking on a Balloon"album maintains a sense of calm and never strays into harshness or anything that doesn't make you feel like you're floating along with the clouds (perhaps in a balloon with a pipe in hand?). That's not to say it grows boring either though.

Sunao Inami - Disinfectant
Japanese experimental artist and Electr-Ohm label head Sunao Inami releases "Disinfectant", his seventh album under his own name.  The album is composed of tracks recorded live in Tokyo in May 2009 which have been cut up and remixed with the intention of to creating new material whilst maintaining the live feel inherent in the original tracks.

Y.E.R.M.O. - Collision Zone
Once you've put this CD into your player, you may find that you can't stop listening to it again and again in order to fully appreciate all of its details and subtleties. And for that reason, it should better be played at high volume, on a high end stereo and with lights turned off.

[syndika:zero] - Blindness
'True Industrial Freedom' is a term bandied about by this relatively new act on the scene to describe their contribution to industrial and harsh electro music. A loftier ideal, perhaps, than club popularity, but their latest release, "Blindness", is more likely to be remembered for the latter than the former.

V/A - Whiteline Vol. III
Roughly once a year, the German label has released an installment of "Whiteline", their DJ-oriented 12" vinyl compilation series. Like its predecessors, "Whiteline Vol. III" features a selection of tracks by established acts and lesser-known or new and upcoming artists from several points in the world. This time around, Aentitainment presents tracks by Igorrr, Mobthrow, Ebola, Larvae and Hello.JPG.
