L'IDIOT DU VILLAGE - 'Entre Eviers Et Latrines' CDR (Black Sun Rising)

Beginning as an absolute Japanoise-esque cacophony, this debut CDR slowly works its way into a kind of homage to Einstürzende Neubauten - even starting to sound like them circa 'Halber Mensch' which is maybe unsurprising considering they've sampled some EN for this. An unusual release from this infrequent French label, which was responsible for the Westwind CDRs. Limited to 111 copies.

LILITH'S SON - 'Self Induced Taenia Saginata' CDR (HarshNoise)

'Self-Induced Taenia Saginata' is an intense, well-constructed synthesizer based noise release from this Argentinan artist. A dirty whirlwind of pure abrasive resonance. Now deleted and hard to find!

LO.BY... - 'Catinue Tu Akt' CDR (Operator Produkzion)

Cyclic harsh radio noise. Ultra patient collages from the sharpest fragments of the ether. Who said that schizophrenia wasn't contagious? Lo.By... will infect you with the virus...'. Limited to 51 hand-numbered copies in a folder with cut-out Russian text, finished with a bolt and screw (constructed by Danilom of YAO 91404 D). Russian import.

LULL & BETA CLOUD - 'Circadian Rhythm Disturbance' 3" Pro-CDR (Laughing Bride Media)

Lull, aka Mick Harris (Scorn, Quoit, ex-Napalm Death), collaborates here with Beta Cloud, who a while back teamed up with Aidan Baker for a killer disc of dark buzzing dronemusic. But on Circadian Rhythm Disturbance, Harris and Beta Cloud team up for one 20 minute track of extreme dark ambience, loose barely there rhythms drift in and out occasionally, but this is all about the atmospheric low end, and it is LOW, a deep subterranean rumble that seems to swallow up all light, like the sound of some massive behemoth drifting slowly through the blackened deep, or some mysterious black shape drifting across the midnight sky, huge groaning drones and massive swells of rib cage rattling bass, smeared and blurred into a tidal sort of barely-rhythm, that subtly pulses and throbs, sucking the listener under, filling you ears with gorgeous soft black sound" (Aquarius). Pro-duplicated and limited to around 100 copies in a dinky PVC sleeve.  

LYTICO BODIG - 'Air Report' CDR (Tabula Rasa)

Three tracks from this Spanish artist dealing with airplane crashes. A powerful mix of Harsh industrial noise and sound and vocal samples of crashes. Rhythmic pulsing electronics slowly gives way to a cacophony of MERZBOW-esque assaults. Be warned - for harsh noise freaks only! Spanish import.
