V/A ~ Ohrwurm Culture
Rhythm and noise are not natural enemies, but they battle throughout the Monstres par Excès labels’ 5th anniversary compilation. The conflict makes for some uneasy listening. One sinks into a groove and is then catapulted from the reverie by a speaker-shredding

Russell Haswell & Yasunao Tone ~ Convulsive Threshold
“Do you like noise?” “What?” “I SAID, DO YOU LIKE NOISE!” “I CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THIS RACKET!” “BUT DO YOU LIKE IT?” “WHAT?” The title Convulsive Threshold seems to refer to the aural version of the strobes that lead to seizures.

The Holocene ~ Scars
When last we checked in with Peter Hamlin (The Holocene), the artist was gleefully pulverizing up old cassette tapes and re-presenting them as modern art. His wife and mum didn’t understand his work, but we did. Fast-forward a season, and

Zbeen ~ Eigen
Zbeen‘s music has always been about pattern, whether created or perceived: the mapping of vectors, linear and algebraic. Although the output of Gianluca Favaron and Ennio Mazzon may be based on mathematics, it sounds more like science, a theme explored in last
