No.¡Gcd 201026 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Dark Ambient / Illbient / Abstract / Drone / Industrial Notes: 5 superb tracks of deep and evocative ambient music, enriched with echoes of ancient ritual suggestions. The immense spaces and the abyssal deepness of the sea, but also the sound of the bowels of the Earth, the colour of the sand of the desert, the energy of the wind, the strength of all the Elements, the infinite cycle of day and night, of life and death¡K A long circular journey through interchanging atmospheres that shake and capture, dragging with energy, then leave room for more quiet and soothing introspective ¡§stasis¡¨, and again become dramatic and overwhelming, A great, unmissable album of ¡§classic¡¨ ritual ambient music.

Title¡GMagical Tone Tricks Cat. No.¡G200508 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Experimental Notes: Magical Tone Tricks was created during the silent night hours as Ontayso's third full lenght album and their ninth release since their birth in 2002. Ontayso frequently collaborates with several musicians and acts but for this release Ontayso exists mainly by their two core members Koen Lybaert and Esther Santoyo. For this release Ontayso has been mainly focused on electronic manipulations and field recordings. The overall atmosphere spread over the 4 long tracks come close to the well known early Basic Channel sound. Magical Tone Tricks still keeps it's unique experimental Ontayso sound. It is their response to the excellent Rod Modell's releases on Silentes and shows their mutual love for this early 90ties Berlin sound and their joy of working with field recordings and minimal sound manipulations.

Title¡GDigression Cat. No.¡GSME1040 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Power Electronics / Ambient Notes: After the recent reprint of ¡§historical¡¨ material collected on the ¡§SONIC DEPRIVATION¡¨ CD (SILENTES SME0930), and the collaboration with NIMH on ¡§FROM UNHEALTHY PLACES¡¨ (SILENTES SME9032), Mauthausen Orchestra/Pierpaolo Zoppo comes back with brand new tracks and a new album where the ¡§fury¡¨ and aggressiveness of his usual ¡§¡§harsh¡¨ sonorities of a Noise/Power-Electronics nature are merged with more ¡§quiet¡¨, wide and always dark ambient parts, sometimes surprising us with unexpected and undisclosed pulsating rhythmic-electronic inserts. A great album for a project that has recently born again with an unsuspected and inspired artistic vital energy.

from "Interzone" tape.

Title¡GMene Teqel Farsin Cat. No.¡Gsme 1034 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Abstract / Industrial / Experimental Notes: Storms of cosmic energy, boiling and gurgling electronic fluxes, sonic masses made of monolithic and impenetrable drones, visions of smoky afterdeath landscapes, scorching and infernal... A neverending tunnel with no way out, a sense of deep anguish, of desolation and resigned impotence that lead the dark journey from the beginning to the end of this hallucinatory path. The sound quality and the sharpness of details are absolutely insuperable, they will offer you a "wrapping" and emotionally all-involving listening experience.
Tracklisting: _________________________________________________________________________________
Title¡GLudium Cat. No.¡Gsme 1033 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Abstract / Industrial / Experimental Notes: A long and almost "solemn" track built with reverberated piano notes, a slow and rhythmical flow leaned on a background made of clashing hisses and vague, distant, rustling ambient noises... A brief interval based on obscure drones moving in circles, inexorably entangled on themselves... Therefore another long piano-based track, this time more dilated, confused, ethereal and prim, so much that it takes the distinguishing features of an indecipherable sonic mass, abstract and booming, estranging, deep and psychedelic...A few and minimal elments, "directed" in a masterly fahion and assembled in an absolutely fundamental work, from the brightest mind of Italian experimental scene and of all the music "without compromises" of the last thirty years... One of the last contributes to the History of Music from an artists that, even in a phase of extraordinarily and unstoppable creative mood, has recently choose and officially announced to quit his long artistic activity. Simply essential.

Title¡GFrom Unhealthy Places Cat. No.¡Gsme 0932 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Industrial / Power Electronics / Ambient Notes: The energy, the genius and the intransigence of the music of the hystoric "cult" power electronics project Mauthausen Orchestra/Pierpaolo Zoppo, united to the originalty, the eclecticism, the rigorous experimental research carried on since fifteen years by Giuseppe Verticchio, mostly with his "Nimh" solo project... Disturbing images of unhealthy places, nocturne landscapes covered with fog, psychotic nightmares, tormenting and delirious, described with sonorities of great impact and incredible dramatic force... A dark and long itinerary, to be covered wrapped in the spirals of a time that progressively seems to slow down and stop, folded on itself, just like suspended in the void, without offering any way out... A sonic adventure for brave souls... Elegantly packaged in a digipack.
Tracklisting: _________________________________________________________________________________
Title¡GInto Cat. No.¡Gsme 0931 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Industrial / Experimental Notes: Penetrating "Hi-tech" music, always on the border between sound, silence and noise... Splinters of sonic fragments, buzzings, electronic hisses, pulsations, hypnotic loops, ambient textures, sudden rays of light... A kaleidoscope of syntethic sounds and digital glitches, in a universe dominated by binary codes, that evolves through the cold-hearted control of sophisticated algorhythmic mutations programmed by human entities that already reached a level beyond the borders of our earthly knowledge...

Title¡GSonic Deprivation Cat. No.¡Gsme 0930 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Noise / Power Electronics / Industrial Notes: A fantastic selection of archive materials from the "golden age" of Mathausen Orchestra, the Italian power-electronic project born in the early 80s from the mind of Pierpaolo Zoppo, recently back in full to his artistic activity (see also the other CD Silentes SME0932, Nimh/Mauthausen Orchestra: From Unhealthy Places). Coming as a wonderful digipack CD, these six tracks collected from his very first cassette releases (Murderfuck, Mafarka, Anal Perversion, Host Sodomy, From Homicide to Slaughter) are released in a completely restored and remastered edition that finally does justice in full to the incredible and futuristic visions of one of the most significant Italian experimental artists of the last thirty years. Unthinkable and apocalyptic sonic masses pushed to the extreme, an endless flux of strong emotions, a violent and devastating impact... Absolutely not to be missed.

Title¡GAzazel Cat. No.¡Gsme 0928 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Industrial / Experimental Notes: 3 long and "majestic" tracks where Maurizio Bianchi's typical deep and reverberated sonorities, full of crepuscular melodies and subtle dissonances, get enriched by more electronic elements and fascinating elaborations, sophisticated manipulations and strong dynamic interventions operated by Crìa Cuervos... Three touching compositions built on progressive "crescendos" and a raging of slow sonic stratifications that lead to real "explosions" of sounds, drones, pulsations, frequencies, vibrations... A new, magnificent and very successful collaborative experience.

Title¡GPU 94 Cat. No.¡Gsme 0926 Format: CD Genre: Electronic / Abstract / Industrial / Experimental Notes: Here at last is a deserved and "rightful" CD re-release of this fantastic collaboration created in 2007 by Maurizio Bianchi and Craig Hilton. Until now this recording was only made available in a very limited CD-R edition. Extremely dark atmospheres, restless and dramatic... Sharp masses of metallic noises cleave pulsating substrates of low frequencies, mixed with magmatic agglomerates of more processed sounds of an unrecognizable nature... Moments of stasis and apparent quietness... Handfuls of minutes of an unutterable, hanging and distressing tension... Sudden showers of vibrant frequencies that emerge from nowhere and bury everything under an heavy and devastating sonic mantle... A real masterpiece of incredibly dark and subterranean music.
