[2012] Kreng - Works for Abattoir Ferme [2007 - 2011]

Our affection for Pepijn Caudron's ghoulishly absorbing music as Kreng is no secret - 2009's L'Autopsie Phenomenale De Dieu and last year's Grimoire both made a big impression on us. But those two records, it turns out, are the tip of a particularly chilling iceberg: as a long-time member of renowned theatre troupe Abattoir Ferme, he's been crafting suitably arcane ambiences and gothic overtures for their theatre performances for several years now. Finally, the best of these works from 2007-2011 are being collected by Miasmah across four LPs, compiled here in one box set, and it's a hugely engrossing, occasionally disturbing haul indeed.

[2012] Robin The Fog - The Ghosts Of Bush

Having already created a huge amount of interest, 'The Ghosts Of Bush' is finally here on a limited vinyl pressing and is easily one of the most pertinent and interesting Radiophonic and hauntological artefacts we've had the pleasure of stocking in recent years. Created by World Service studio manager Robin The Fog, 'The Ghosts of Bush' Consists entirely of nocturnal location recordings made by him at Bush House, the iconic home of the BBC's world service for over seven decades before it moved to a new location in July this year. The recordings were mostly made during Robin's night shifts at Bush House and then eventually manipulated on dual quarter-inch reel-to-reel machines, creating a seamlessly segued side of ghostly, decaying acoustic sounds captured within the stone-clad building's numerous corridors, lifts, studios and stairwells. As you'd imagine, the effect is immensely evocative, at once recalling Daphne Oram's most isolated experiments, Konstantin Raudive's famous EVP recordings, the disintegrating loops of William Basinski, even Burial's most haunting interludes, and not least AFX's 'SAW II' classic; a phosphorescing mass of ferric-stroked midnight sonorities and metaphysical murmurs, or as the artist himself puts it "The sounds the building makes when it thinks no one is listening". It should be considered a set text for sound art students and scholars of the ether, we urge you to snap one up while you can.

Tracklist:
01 Cantonese Subs / Fog At 5am
02 The Resonating Stairwell
03 Cold Space And Peeling Oxide
04 London Ta Ke Kira
05 Shortwave Fishtank
06 The Haunted Handle / Stairwell Reprise

[2012] Stephan Mathieu - Coda [For WK] [EP]

This new CD from Stephan Mathieu is a coda to 'A Static Place', created with his highly focused setup of two mechanical-acoustic gramophones and computer. Coda (For WK) is dedicated to the legendary “quiet” pianist Wilhelm Kempff, whose 1927 recordings of Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 26 Les Adieux from a double 12” 78RPM set on Brunswick were used as input for an autogenerative process. Mathieu’s process emphasizes the archaic beauty and texture of this early media while using the original tones for the body of this rich extended work that is both hypnotic and grainy; a journey into the essence of sound that can be appreciated on many levels. Mathieu has made this gramophone and computer setup a constant factor for his signature process of late and the work he produces becomes more deep and personalized with each release. The echoes of the past can be heard in these ghostly compositions and Mathieu’s love for not only the process but the original music is clearly seen in his passion for the work. Coda (For WK) was first released by Minority Records on the vinyl version of A Static Place in an edition of 155 copies. 12k is presenting it here on CD, packaged in a sleeve that echoes the designs of the era that gave birth to this music.

Tracklist:
01 Coda (For WK) 20:00

[2012] Steve Moore - Light Echoes

'Light Echoes' is Steve Moore's first proper solo album since the fantastic 'Primitive Neural Pathways' (2010) and it's an absolute beauty. There are few artists out there with the vision to match or even proper approach undertakings of these proportions and the Zombi dude is at their vanguard. While many of the current retro-futurist episodes can be a lot of fun, they're often knowingly disposable. It's not so with Moore's output. The deceptive simplicity of 'Light Echoes' disguises the enduring vision and wrought intentions of its creator - his banks of classic analogue synthesizer are an extension of his glowing nervous system by the fact he's spent so long with them, resulting in the kinds of sonic imprints and spacious diffusion which can't be achieved by any shortcuts. He's done it the hard way, and it will defintiely sound like it to anyone familiar with the original kosmische visions.

Tracklist:
01 Tyken's Rift 6:14
02 Light Echoes I 6:39
03 Aldebran Exchange 6:42
04 Light Echoes II 14:06
05 Protomorphosis 8:53
06 Ancient Shorelines II 28:05

[2012] Motion Sickness of Time Travel - The Cirque

[2012] Kane Ikin - Sublunar

Sublunar is the first full-length release from Kane Ikin who is also known as one half of the duo Solo Andata. Sublunar follows Kane’s solo debut Contrail (7”, 12k2022) picking up where that EP left off and pushing the boundaries outward in every direction into denser, deeper, wetter and more decayed terrain.
The word “sublunar” can be read to contain many conceptual layers important to the album. It is music about moonlight, darkness, the faintest hint of light and shadow.... Moons locked in orbit, repetition, gravity, weight, pressure... Subconscious, subliminal, distant, deteriorated signals, like radio waves lost in a noisy haze of transmission... and about dust, noise and oversaturation.

Tracklist:
01 Europa 4:47
02 Slow Waves 4:02
03 In The Arc 2:30
04 Ebbing 1:47
05 Rhea 3:16
06 Titan 2:22
07 Sleep Spindle 2:45
08 An Infinite Moment 0:55
09 The Violent Silence 1:10
10 Black Sands 4:49
11 Lo 4:29
12 Prometheus' Trail 2:35
13 Oberon 4:51
14 Compression Waves 4:28
15 In The Shadow Of The Vanishing Night 4:44
16 Hyperion 4:13

[2012] Vessel - Order Of Noise

In the past trying to pin down Vessel’s constantly evolving sound has never been an easy task, and with the release of his debut album it’s become a whole lot harder. In the past 12 months Vessel, aka, 22 year old Sebastian Gainsborough, has been introducing people to his sound via a series of 12” releases on a number of forward thinking, underground labels with each release confounding the expectations of those trying to get a grasp on what exactly he was doing. Order Of Noise is the culmination of his first exploratory steps as an artist, and the album Tri Angle Record’s believed Vessel was building up to. It signals the arrival of an innovative and intensely unique, young, electronic producer who has developed a sound that still has the potential to confuse and confound, but one that is now identifiable as being very much his own.

Tracklist:
01. Vizar
02. Stillborn Dub
03. Images Of Bodies
04. Silten
05. Lache
06. Aries
07. 2 Moon Dub
08. Scarletta
09. Plane Curves
10. Temples
11. Court Of Lions
12. Villaine

[2012] Meadowlands - Cross-sectional Studies

To say he starts gathering pace would probably be an overstatement, but compared to the sheer ambient delight of his previous stuff, what our man McGregor aka Meadowlands does here on his very excellent new Cross-sectional Studies tape might be considered a slightly new direction, an exploration into sonic territory that is still very much about texture and intricate soundscaping for the sake of pure experimentation, yet that for the first time, as far as I’m informed, also features something I’m inclined to call, until further notice, an actual rhythm section.

The Cross-sectional Studies C-30 is out 14 May 2012 on Portugal’s Exo Tapes. Edition of 20. This edition is currently sold out!

Tracklist:
01. Bamboo Hearts
02. Sonafin
03. Shongum

06. Zeuce

This Latitudes release is, in essence, Bobby live, but think of it as 'The Haxan Cloak 2.0'.

[2012] Symmetry - Themes For An Imaginary Film

Symmetry, the latest project from Johnny Jewel (along with Nat Walker) released by Italians Do It Better. Themes for an Imaginary Film, the group's deeply ambitious debut album, is a different beast altogether: "cinematic" may not be as accurate as "novelistic" in describing a record as sprawling, mysterious and immersive as this one. While kickstarted in part by Jewel's involvement in the Drive soundtrack (as he recently told Pitchfork, he began writing music for the film before the producers eventually went with the more experienced Cliff Martinez), Themes doesn't feel like the score for something so much as the thing in and of itself—a work of intricate storytelling and thematic sophistication.
