atmospherics. 
while it manages to wander and cover a 
lot of ground it never feels discordant yet thought out and planned,

ZHERBIN / JUNTA : split    (HYSTER39, 2024)
*glorious ripping myriad of harsh electronics, metal junk, pieces, hiss 
gadgets and 
crude tape loops that start and stop and start and
stop and then eventually taper away. slowly building tinkling and 
crackling massive onwards moving chaotic harsh noise slab 
ending up crude yet comfortable 
overwhelming crunch, buzz and wail. abt 15 minutes of opposites of same 
coin - an exact amount of 
massive fun. 
for alternate mix, push the loudness button on your amplifier - thank you.

Aaron in space alley
SIRPA KALLA & ALBERT MATERIA: bird named Earl   (HYSTER43, 
2025)
*on quick glance, on the surface, its a a tape of simple, weird, wonky 
songs - piano and vocals on one side, and experimental music of warbling 
tape loops, 
echoes, field recordings, little synths, hidden sine-wave 
violins, schlager singers, effects, and such on the other. look closer, 
and its a loose concept album 
about birds - not in the "I know this bird and that bird" way, but 
more in a "casually dropping celestial wisdom and clandestine 
truths" way. 
all in all, with the rare naivety found here, it somehow manages to evoke 
emotion and make statements that 
are unexpectedly otherworldly, brutal 
and true - making the sum of its 
parts greater than almost everything else, and in doing so, proving Yngwie 
Malmsteens principle just plain wrong.
50 copies on recycled cassettes.

ANTONY MILTON: off-white  (AKTICAS-7)
*sad and sincere sounding, slow, dreamy and meandering emotional 
experimental glitchy psych leftfield lo-fi pop
with occasional cool and fried and almost collapsing noodling electric 
guitar 
solos. this was a lathe cut LP in 2017. 
now in 2023 its a C-cassette. wondering if there will be an 
neural-audio-hologram (NAH) version out in 2046?

 ATTACK THE ENEMY: mässäker  (RUPU030)
*A side sizzling, noisy D-beat punk. best track name "glam rock incel", 
best track "future". B side static rumbling and 
distantly wheezing gloomy grey industrial noise, industrial in the 
factory sense, not the genre. crude and lo-fi.

AUTHARKTOS: carpetscapes  (TCD1432017)
*basically a nice experimental tape of droning sine waves and/or 
keyboards, tiny sounds, garbled tape whine, 
confused atmospheres, the usual fare. all good & fine. yet what makes 
this tape stand out a bit is its way odd 
production values and choices - there is really weird digital crap glitch 
on top of everything through the whole tape, 
sometimes it fits almost magically and sometimes its really fucking 
annoying. its close to a sound you might get when 
recording something really loud with cheap earbuds. this tape is edition of 18 copies.. which is probably just fine 
since 
it is clearly not for everyone. file under: annoying, limited, 
baltic & brilliant.
ps. somehow this tape also reminds me at times of Crochet from UK.. 
i have no idea why.

BARDO TODOL / DEVID CIAMPALINI: el origen del pensamiento magico  
(IKASUS-063)
*pretty inspired collaboration between two italians and one argentine. 
new ageish / ambient, experimental synth / 
electronics with odd snippets 
of field recordings, effected monologues, shallow & tiny drumming, bells, 
toys and 
such, all assembled into an weird, flowing collage. really 
diverse & really good!

BLACK HOLE SYNDROME: studio futu  (NO LABEL)
*main ingredients: a very distant slow groovy rudimentary drum beat and a 
thoughtful meandering bass, coated 
with saxophone of various ways and muffled, partly inaudible sung / spoke 
stream of consciousness vocals. 
add 16 tons of atmosphere and inspiration and two slices of somethings 
sounding harmonium and worlds smallest 
bagpipe and you have this tape. it 
sounds like jazz but oddly at the same time it clearly somehow is not 
jazz? 
well whatever it is, its also probably the bravest and most beat cassette 
of year 2024! full recommendations.

BILLA ENSEMBLE: live at billa 2   (NO LABEL)
*a chance meeting of quartet of Michiu, Marie Vermont, Tumeric Acid and 
the concept horse that results in a 
one sided recycled C90 cassette with about 32 minutes of sparse 
improvised experimental electronix. 
there is a note on 
the web that suggest this was played and recorded in a supermarket. i dont 
think that it is 
true but i will believe it anyway. yellow, violet(ish) and green covers 
available.

CIRLE OF SHIT: the misinterpretation of silence  (RUPU35)
*lo-fi death industrial, noise, field-recorded TV, peaceful sewer schlager 
loops decorated with feedback and 
surprising, 
funny, sexy and occasionally 
bit demented sound collages. its all over the place yet unhurried and
taking its time to develop - like rot. exquisite.
maybe one way to win is to consider everything else except gothic rock as 
a trap.

COSMIC HOMEOSTASIS   (VAC-069)
*side a, collaborative  meandering cosmic experimental ambient piece 
called broken telephone from 2020, 
made online during early 
lock-down by 16 musicians. an calm, mysterious and bit oppressive affair, 
perhaps 
a bit like early Tangerine Dream at points? side b a track called 
Christies transmission which is compiled from two 
live performaces 
recorded at a park in 2021 by almost the same 16 people who are involved 
in broken 
telephone. 
its gentle, thoughtful yet bit sombre ambience. flutes, 
bells, electronics and Maple Leafs baseball game. real nice tape!

CRUCIAL GENESIS OUTFITS (DCR-011 / VAC-037)
*on the tape cover it also states: "NO WORDS FOR THESE KIND OF BIRDS". 
this is a split tape between Fire moss
and Think of a name, both (maybe) from Canada. side F.M has a four fine 
minimal pieces made with (mostly scraped
and delayed) violin, bass, keyboards,synth and piano. all is real airy and 
totally wonderful.
on side T.O.A.N there is a great live recording from year 2018 made in 
Welland. hard to describe slowly morphing,
meandering, experimental, psychedelic and improvised maze of samples, 
guitar, bass, loops and such. real good!

DEL STEPHEN: (split)         (VAC-068)
*A side excellent, yet very crude, live recording from september 29 2022 
at Hotel Wolfe Island. set starts with 5 brief 
poems with backing 
soundtracks that go from tropical moods cassette hiss to weird, 
atmospheric and tiny trip hop and 
onto even a bit intimidating, minimal 
and very lo-fi light industrial noise. the latter might sound like 
that due the 
wonderful lo-fi quality of the recording. the 2 songs that 
end the set are long, freeform versions of songs called "heart loft" 
and 
"translation emotion express". its a fantastic document of inspiring and 
real special live event!
side B is titled 
"imagine that the sea is on the other side" and 
consists of 3 tracks of airy, thoughtful, soothing, mysterious and sublime 
synth music pieces and one lovely hissing and distant 
field-recording / audio collage.
with the tape comes a lengthy two page A4 
where the events around, in and 
outside the Hotel Wolfe Island concert get described by Del. in the text a 
term a performer of 
secret music gets introduced and it fits here 
100%. very much recommended!!

DUBBLING CRACK MONSTER: radio inside (IN.005)
*the label has a real good description of this, so here it is: 
Capture radio waves with an antenna, through a cable, through 
the drum 
machine, synthesized by circuits. ... The devices influence and trigger 
each other. 
Radio signals are chopped and channeled through the circuits. Bass 
fields resound in noise, radio shreds floating in the drones.
its a fantastic cassette!

EI MUUTA / KADONNUT MANNER: split   (BEMBÖLE CASSETTES)
*E.M. is a trio of saxophone,  guitar and organ - not much thought put to 
composing and using instruments that the players are not 
very familiar 
with.. or atleast thats what its states on covers. is it meandering and 
aimless? yes and no. plenty of wonky atmosphere.
  
K.M. fingerpicking primitive guitar excursions of various 
orientations. from bit hectic rag to slow burning mellow slide and pluck. 
really nice listen and extra bonus for the excellent liner notes.

noisy improlike, free psych 
noodling. one T.Rex cover.

well together.
Tin Tin Patrone slow pace collage of very 
odd and deep sounds and atmospheres, there might be a trombone here or 
maybe its cello? 
Marie Vermont an seemingly improvised, 
real inspired and pretty nasty 
synth and feedback excercise. 
The Concept Horse a mangled recording 
of a stringed instrument scrape, 
a cheap keyboard and a tingle with a 
healthy dose of tape hiss. 
Magnetic Coroner mushy, 
loopy, circling sample-based oddly stale/moldy 
collage. En Creux a lo-fi excercise of tinnitus whine and amplifier 
buzz n 
hiss which ends up as a noisy crunch. Emacs a distant melancholy humm 
amidst corrupted radio signal and a slice of mangled tape work.  
Excelent release!

then it somehow ends finally in a incomprehensible sing a song

surprising sudden changes and odd juxtapostitions somehow end up
exceptionally fine tuned, odd, spacious,  musical and bit nocturnal,
slightly wet whole. best radio play of year 2024. maybe even

KRVUSPÁRA: yarn  (hirvirantatapes026 / movement-03)
*chaotic, experimental and pretty dirty lo-fi mystery black metal with 
some slow- burning atmospheric parts and nice, short experimental 
touches 
- tape crunch / warble, electronic buzz / wail, field-recorded birds, 
meandering organ / synth etc etc - within and between the tracks.
maybe the slower parts are black metal too? i dont speak black metal so i 
am not sure..
overall feel of this tape comes across more as a messed 
up organic 
whirlwind of deeply 
haunted rural metal-punk than some cold black cosmic religion-themed 
horror heavy-metal. 
included a small insert of a poetic travelogue of sorts 
written in finnish. coherent and well-thought-out whole.. and even quite 
catchy 
at points! recommended.

Sick days: close recording of wind, water or fire and a soothing, 
meandering plink plonk of a music box / xylophone / electric toy piano or 
such + radio / contact mic scrape & hiss.
all in all - a tape of mighty bliss for days on end! very recommended.

MULO MUTO / SOMA: scorched dreams in stranded worlds (RUPU26)
*MM side an excellent, meandering and noisy oscillation heavy hiss n 
screech n crumble, at times its like a real slow ambulance ride.. which 
suddenly turns very sinister and galactic. S side a slow, crumbling yet 
not that crunchy, chaotic noise with odd surprise vocals. 
a fine, solid split from universe! long tracks!

OPIRG Creative Music: OCM 2011-13      (VAC-060)
 *A side dreamy, adventurous, leisurely meandering synth and effect 
escapades, mutant techno excursions and other quite 
mellow group improvisations. side B is more free-form and out there 
freakout type of group effort, method here seems to be: 
whatever it is, everything, all at once. its a glorious mess which ends 
up in hollow hills and from there onto space thru starlit 
sky, naturally. also included in the package: a 
lengthy written description of how these things unfolded by Del Stephen.

sounds incl. atleast: atmospheric, spooky and weird experimental ambience 
made with piano, samples, spoken word, field recs, minimal 
scratch and rustle, free drum solo, thoughtful impro electric guitar 
noodlings, meandering slow burn ambient noise sizzle with domestic sounds
and piano ponderings, evolving and shimmering digital new agey crystal 
droppings, silent hummings with field recs of distant 
bells and distant people. tape comes in a stamped & recycled cardboard 
box, insert on a nice paper. very, very good tape!

PHANTOM GLADE   (BB023)
*weird compilation of electronic/synth onetakes (this prob means 
improvised?) recorded in Vienna during 2021-2022. its a varied affair of 
eerie, 
oddly darkish and somehow even bit sickly atmospheres. unifying 
factor between all tracks seems to be that there is a person called Marie 
Vermont 
involved. no idea what it means. interesting comp!

meandering, bent, intimidating, jolly, rousing, rural, Fahey, desert, 
adventurous, sad, pondering, scraping, messy, experimental, soothing 
and onto picked.

SANDLADAN: alppikatu  (B-KOMISSIO)
*great, mellow, crisp, heroic, spaceish, concrety, krauty synthmaze music 
from helsinki. sounds somehow oddly retro & futuristic 
at the same time, maybe an google fueled AI that has been tricked into 
thinking its living in the 60s might come up with similar
end product? 
strongest track is sidelong  "Brahenkentt which sounds bit like soothing 
new-age music for robots. weakest "Alppikatu", which is luckily 
also the shortest one on the tape. so more is more and less is less in 
robot sphere. 40min, three track tape. middle A in their name should have 
an tiny circle above it.

live recordings

SICK DAYS:  other duties as assigned  (VAC-063)
*2023. two side long (long!) tracks of assorted and manipulated 
field-recordings, shifting of objects and electricity. its a wonderful 
lengthy affair 
of muffled hiss and rumbling experimentalism amidst occasional bird and 
rain. at times it gets real dense and pleasantly static noisy so i 
guess you can call this a noise tape if you really want to? there seems to 
be a quite a lot of rain on tin. 
clever ready-made covers which dont seem to make any sense with A) the 
title and B) the track names. Right!

wonderful!
side B consists of solely one idling nokia 8110 smartphone which is

experimental drones, floating debris, hiss, rain, decaying club techno and 
all sorts of grainy ambient with a occasional slight hint of

maybe little bit more on the ambient side than the previous two?

KALLE HERMANNI AUTIO:  kootut teokset sooloviululle 7"  
(KARIVERYTIRED-1 "schweigen" [maybe..?])
*one-sided 45rpm 7" titled "collected solo violin works".. which is of 
course quite funny but i believe it is also the truth? three pieces - two 
short,
one long. quite hectic yet not annoyingly fast. noisy, messy, sharp, 
screechy and tight with a plenty of surprises.
comes with a booklet of notes and performance instructions that look more 
like dense circuit board schematics than sheet music ..though have to 
admit 
i have very limited experience of either so maybe this is how these 
things always look? to piece Maximum Yeah Yeah the booklet 
offers these simple instructions: 
"Inhale at the beginning, exhale at the end, and bite your teeth 
together in between." ...which can also maybe work as a fine 
description of ones span of a lifetime?
also in the booklet / music sheet are pictures of cooking, fishing, table 
tennis, violins, dentistry, kayak paddling, french horn and maybe a tuba. 
its a wonderful, 
wild & weird little disc! violin played by Orest Smovzh.
available in finnish or swedish - let me know which language you prefer 
when

B: some odd snippets, including atleast: loop of swamp-life, noisy impro

JUHO TOIVONEN: kasveille ja eläimille

Sisarusten toistuva uni  LP with wider (yet
still quite calm) sound / style palette: guitar, synth, piano, muffled
vocals + more defined and braver tape hissings.
somewhere between those two lies Kasveille ja eläimille - 
straightforward, concentrated and soothing, relaxed, hissing ambient LP. 
pearly drops of piano, 
minimal static synth drones, hum, waves, slight fog of tape and fields 
recorded.

BLACK BEVY: 8,300 miles   (ARPH-0007)
*hard to pin down and surprisingly diverse, quite ambient record made by a 
duo. there are wide guitars, synths, drones, howl, 
distant clicks, tiny rhythms, silent field-recordings, humm, samples, 
ghostly vocals, long pitched vocals, etc. etc. all 
cloaked 
mysteriously into a nice & odd feel of pop, a very left-field and 
experimental pop sure but a pop nonetheless! the song The 
wind has 
gather up the vapour will most likely be a huge retro banger hit at 
the post-apocalypse discos of 2098. 
maybe a very stripped down FSA record "Mirror" can be seen somewhere in 
the distance, far, far away? I am not sure, but 
atleast one thing is clear:  buy less - listen more.
