Please Wait - Black & White
<a href="http://takuakaflip.bandcamp.com/album/black-white-ep"><br /> Please Wait is the culmination of numerous online exchanges and years of sharing voice memos, stems, musical ideas & TikTok links between Ta-ku and Matt McWaters. Their cathartic approach to this body of work has been more about self expression than anything else and has culminated in an EP that covers a range of issues and experiences from different times in their lives.<br /> <br /> Ta-ku’s 823 label represents the appreciation for the people/ideas/places that inspire and push us forward. The artwork is shot by the artist themselves and each release has an accompanying photo zine that acts as a visual story to compliment the music being showcased.<br /> <br /> Featured on ‘Flight 99’ is Masego - the soul super-heavyweight who needs no introduction, bringing his signature flow and musicianship to the forefront, accompanied by minimal yet vivid production.</a>

Gareth Davis & Merzbow - Broken Landscapes
<a href="http://movingfurniturerecords.bandcamp.com/album/broken-landscapes"><br /> Following on from their 2016 Moving Furniture release, Atsusaku, Broken Landscapes is a new collaboration between Gareth Davis (Oiseaux Tempete, Scanner, Elliott Sharp, Machinefabriek) and Merzbow, Japanese noise mastermind Masami Akita.<br /> <br /> The theme of mechanical compression explored in the first album is taken further this time, being looked at in the context of the fears of mechanisation in the environment. A torrent of noise reimagines the North Sea wind farms, the industrialisation in Southern California and the fight for the survival of animals in their overrun habitats. Through three tracks, the sounds of these spaces are crushed and distorted, the sense of air being saturated by the shifting low-end drones and hum of machines, howling reeds and dense white noise pushing away the breathing space.<br /> <br /> The acoustic sound almost suffocated beneath the dense mechanical sweep of furiously abusive digital cross-fire and unrelenting production line intensity. Hints of recognition as a voice from the environment shines through before moving abruptly back into the mechanical barrage of looping textures. Broken Landscapes is built on impenetrably thick walls of manipulated field recordings while the bass clarinet saturates the midrange, the massive swirling mesh of analogue and digital material painting pictures of the magnified terrain that surrounds us.<br /> <br /> Bass clarinet and Electronics: Gareth Davis<br /> Electronics: Masami Akita<br /> Mastered by Jos Smolders at EARLabs<br /> Lacquer cut by Andreas Lubich at LUPO<br /> Sleeve by Rutger Zuydervelt</a>

Merzbow - Pulse Demon (Remaster Reissue)
<a href="http://merzbow.bandcamp.com/album/pulse-demon-remaster-reissue"><br /> Relapse presents a remastered reissue from the undisputed king of Japanese noise-MERZBOW. Pulse Demon is one of the most celebrated releases of Masami Akita's storied 4 decade long career. Composed entirely by live noise concrete and the use of a fuzz box, Pulse Demon eschews all overdubs and studio trickery, laying MERZBOW bare. What follows in these recordings is the pure essence of unfettered noise. The rawness in Pulse Demon is palpable; praised as "genuinely extreme, downright torturous sounds that are strangely compelling in their shredding intensity." (A.V. Club) upon its original release in 1996.<br /> <br /> Remastered by James Plotkin (ISIS, ELECTRIC WIZARD, FULL OF HELL, and more,) the Pulse Demon reissue features "Extract 1", a never-before released track that was recorded as part of the original Pulse Demon sessions.</a>

Ruby My Dear - Altaïr
<a href="http://rubymydear.bandcamp.com/album/altai-r"><br /> This is ‘Altaïr’, a collection of kaleidoscopic post-breakcore from veteran french surrealist Ruby My Dear.<br /> <br /> The lights are out and a strange alien force surrounds the periphery of your hearing.. The sound of a haunting music box flickering in the darkness draws you closer but as you begin to approach everything explodes into dank crossbreed DnB rhythms that punch you in the gut and send you flying. As the bombardment of breaks momentarily subside you realise you’ve been beamed aboard the mothership and are now surrounded by unknown and indescribable visions.<br /> <br /> You are given a brief moment to contemplate before your legs are swept from underneath you by a flurry of amens that would fry the minds of the hungriest of junglis’ epicures. Journeying deeper into the heart of the beast you become aware of distant and immense rumbles but are stopped in your tracks by grinding brutal machinery rising up on all sides. As quickly as it appeared it starts to collapse and you are plunged into near darkness once again.<br /> <br /> Pulses of light slowly begin to stab rhythmically from behind clouds and you feel yourself begin to move faster and faster through a void that is now streaked by a spectrum of colour. Floating debris starts re-arranging around you at light speed and every fibre of your being is simultaneously stimulated with needle-like accuracy. As the last string plucks play out the darkness falls away and the cover artwork comes back into focus. You immediately leave wherever you are and encourage someone else to experience this music.<br /> <br /> Artwork by TAPT.<br /> Mastered by Keith Tenniswood.</a>
