quite a short note mostly with news around latest releases, etc…
the actual editions_zero version of the ‘ashtray navigations / family battle snake / stellar om source’ LP is out and sells out fast.
out as well is the nmperign / skeletons out split 7″
here’s frans de waard’s review from vital weekly
NMPERIGN/SKELETONS OUT – MARVIN/LIVE 1978 (7″ by Editions Zero)
A rather nicely lo-fi packed 7″ of two of the more intelligent noise projects around. On side Greg Kelley and Bhob Rainey, otherwise known as Nmperign team up for one of their great pieces of improvised wind instrument mayhems. Mayhem as in silence meeting noise, but not the usual noise you may expect from someone like Merzbow. The controlled blowing of the two make a great fine interplay. The instruments as instrument and as objects. A fine piece.
Skeletons Out are more a noise rock piece band, or so it seems. Howard Stelzer on cassettes and Jay Sullivan on turntable create a more straight forward piece of noise music that rocks the house. It sound like a rock band with dark rumbling noise underneath and cracklings on top, all in true fierce noise mood. Much more heavy and linear than the other side, but great noise altogether. (FdW)
almost out also is the raionbashi 10″ in conjuction with ignivomus (US) who is to handle its US distribution. european will be handled via absurd. further details on the 10″ to be mailed sometime next week that it will be ‘officially’ out.
also as the install fest is soon to be launched dont’ miss if you have the chance to attend it, nikos veliotis’s ‘cello powder’ performance.
at least the audio release part of it is supported by noise-below. further infos (& copy reservations) can be made here www.cellopowder.com
on the blog too was uploaded the mental anguish ‘mourning rendezvous’ tape, the previously unpublished harsh dept harsh 003.
some more tape stuff was also uploaded from the early 90’s era.

a couple of vinyl reissues under the blog’s umbrella are in the pipeline for 2009 but details are to be announced later.
in the pipeline for absurd are a gorgeous live cdr documentation of an al margolis / dan burke live set in brussels last year, eventually this will be out in march and in march or april is coming out a stellar antoine chessex 1sided LP titled ‘terra incognita’. may / june sees an incredible LP by nokalypse which will be co-released with entr’acte.
more stuff is in the pipeline for both editions_zero & also some ‘a question of re_entry’ too. details when time comes…
love & noise
