Video: Monocorpse – Being Reduced To Nothing

This week The Attic magazine / webzine premiered the new Monocorpse video… this is a video for the track “Being Reduced To Nothing” taken from the recently released 12″ vinyl EP ‘The Comfort Of Strangers’… and the second video for this record…

As always the case since the first EP and accompanying video’s Monocorpse himself is responsible for the creation of the video. He works with found footage and sampled images… creating a perfect visual representation of the dark  and suspensive mood articulated by his music…  see below for yourself…

Out now: R A D K O, Bebe Fang, Monocorpse and The Untitled

Out now are the latest four releases on Enfant Terrible, Vrystaete and Gooiland Elektro.

On Gooiland Elektro Monocorpse and The Untitled have appeared. Monocorpse already with this third 12″ EP and The Untitled with his debut on Gooiland Elektro/Enfant Terrible. Of course The Untitled has released way more before on his own label and other labels… check out his harsh acid/techno music here…

Monocorpse delivers his finest (in my opinion) EP up till now… a strange mix of soundtrack and dance floor minded stuff… like always dark and moody… you can find all the infos and sound previews here… and check out a video for this record below…

R A D K O from Italo deliver their debut 7″ with two tracks which border new wave, cold wave, shoegaze and even indie music in some ways… there is a video below and all infos are to be found here…

On Vrystaete comes the Bebe Fang LP… a personal favourite of mine… a haunting mix of lo-fi, ambient, folklore, ritual and psychedelic music… something I would like to invite you to explore yourself… get a taste of it here…

EnSync

ensynclpA little while ago the self-titled by EnSync album found its way to me and my turntable… I had listened a bit on internet and was very curious for the album… I can never really enjoy listening music online… I only use internet to “check” if it is worth getting a certain vinyl, cd or tape… anyway… what I heard triggered me… and now the album is here on vinyl and after I played it several times I can only recommend all who are into some wicked ambient soundscapes with tribal, ritual and occult touches to get a copy.

EnSync is a duo playing drums and electronics… yes like Silver Apples… but the music is more abstract and more occult sounding while sharing the trance indulging character with the 60’s psychedelic duo…

Another comparison that springs to mind is Cannibal Movie… although they play organ and drums… but their music has the same occult and ritual feeling…

EnSync deliver some subtle and distinguished ambient sounds which built a trippy and spacey listening experience… simply amazing and exciting and for sure one of the best things to be released this year!

You can listen to a full track here… and I have a few copies for sale here…

 

Neugeborene Nachtmusik live at Radio Resistencia

This Thursday the 22nd of September there is a new Radio Resistencia recording session at Kapitaal in Utrecht (NL)… this time straight from Berlin we have Neugeborene Nachtmusik performing live…

Followers of Enfant Terrible activities will know Neugeborene Nachtmusik of course… he became part of the family with his project Milligram Retreat and continued under his new alias ever since…

Music wise Neugeborene Nachtmusik is hard to define… his music features elements of elektro, (post) industrial, techno, krautrock and ambient … but all in te mix makes up for a sound of its own… most of the time sounding rather dark and (spi)ritual…

The sessions start at 20.00 hour and ends at 23.00 hour and features me  and dj Alacidus playing some tunes before and after the live set by Neugeborene Nachtmusik… entrance is free and beers are cheap…

Here is one the tracks from the album…

Out now: Roberto Auser, Utroid and Monocorpse

hoes_def_full_enfant26
It took some time… more time as expected… but this seems to be the normal way to go these days… Anyway… out now are the three awaited records by Roberto Auser, Utroid and Monocorpse…

Roberto Auser serves minimal electronics/elektro as it should sound… raw and analogue… Utroid spoils us with new beat and early techno influenced acid… and last but not least Monocorpse delivers some dark and ritual electronic music… you can find the second video from the Monocorpse EP here below…

All three records come in screen printed sleeves which are handprinted by me and Roberto Auser at Kapitaal in Utrecht.

You can order the records at the ET webshop or get them shortly from the usual suspects around the globe…

Monocorpse – Cease To Exist 12″ EP

Expected before summer… I think about early/mid July is a new EP by Monocorpse on Gooiland Elektro… this Dutch project blends (post-)techno, ritual and industrial sounds into spine chilling soundtracks for occult nighttime sessions…

While the first EP “Ceremonie Caille” was thematically centred around voodoo… this new EP stays closer to home while taking its theme from The Family… and in that line the first video was edited… for the truly interested I do not need to explain this video footage and all… and for the non-informed it is a nice starting point to get into this record and the theme behind it…
