CAMERATA
MEDIOLANENSE "Pankration" CD
(TW1.19) Twilight Records
The present collection contains some of the
most representative of CAMERATA MEDIOLANENSE's tracks taken from their
previous releases on cd and on 10", thus offering a taste of
CM's aesthetics and approach to music. Epic impetus alternates with
a lyrical and intimate mood, embroidering imaginative frescos of the
past or of the mysterious and fascinating lands of the mind and of
the soul. Classical rigour blends with romance, not disdaining experimenting,
always filtered by a personal sensitivity and a sense of belonging
to a European culture which, far from being dead, is still alive and
fertile. Thus, ancient instruments like harpsichord, trumpet or timpano
live together with modern features like the use of keyboards or the
effects of reverberation, while the three singers.. CM (Daniela, Luminitça
and Trevor) master lyrical chant and experimental voice. In the same
outlook, some of CM's tracks are directly inspired by major European
poets, like Lorenzo il Magnifico, Torquato Tasso, Heinrich Heine,
on whose lyrics the music itself has been newly composed. At the ground
of CM's aesthetics lies the idea of the work of art as a whole, a
total and complex representation of the world; the continue and violent
struggle of the individual in this world has suggested the title "Pankràtion",
that was the most violent among the Graeco-Roman kinds of wrestling.

CLOAMA
"s/t" CD
New Old Sentinel
Surrealistic ambient with experimental and electro-acoustic
touches. First release on this sub-division of Neuroscan.org. and
a permanent new direction for Cloama? Very different than previous
works, especially the most recent ‘Revisionist Knowledge’.
More electro-acoustically based with layered, organic atmospheric
ambience full of surreal, abstract sounds that tend to build to nice,
dynamic climaxes. Sometimes droning and hypnotic, other times more
unsettling and collaged in feel. On this release Cloama could happily
sit beside fellow Finnish acts on the Aural Hypnox label. Cardboard
styled full color cover in A5 plastic sleeve. Edition of 500 copies.

COLD

harmony. Symmetry between surrounding world and its "mirror reflection",
which sticks in our minds. Symmetry of left and right side, day and
night, birth and death. Symmetry of buildings, objects, bodies. biquitous
symmetry. Brand new album of Cold Fusion reflets ist theme - dynamic,
marching atmosphere from one side, melancholy and reverie from another.
Illusory lack of symmetry or rather its confirmation? 11 tracks, 44.30

COMBATIVE
ALIGNMENT "...And outside glows the red dawn" CD
(tumorcd24) Malignant Records
First full length CD from this powerful and visionary German project.
And Outside Glows the Red Dawn can perhaps be seen as Combative Alignment's
benchmark recording, offering 6 tracks that work as a virtual musical
thoroughfare to a more dreamlike, illusory state. Deeply brooding
atmospheres, where omniscient layers of drones and reverberating sound
currents meet measured, ritual percussion as performed under the glowing,
gloomy haze of a primordial sunrise. And Outside Glows the Red Dawn
shines a dim light on a world of obscure origin, full of dark Germanic
mysticism and unearthly sonic terrain. On a whole, this is a more
focused, deeper, and fluid recording than you’ve heard before,
yet triumphantly carrying on the tradition laid down by previous releases.
In stylish digipak, lmtd 1000 copies. Recommended!

CONTROL
"Natural Selection" CD
(con055) Eibon Records
Redefining the concept of aural aggression.
Structured, multi-layered, hyper-complex power noise. Sharp like a
surgical scalpel and powerful like a demolition hammer, CONTROL music
adds a new meaning to the abused "power electronics" definition.
The only good way to describe "The means to an end" ? A
fierce beast constrained (temporarily.....) in a steel cage, far too
small to contain its natural aggressiveness.
The cage won't last forever......

COPH
NIA "The Dark Illuminati" CD
(cmi163) Cold Meat Industry
The Thelemic Warlord is back; and after years
of silence and solitude Aldenon once again presents us with a true
masterpiece - "The Dark Illuminati - A Celestial Tragedy in two
acts".
This is an epic saga of eight illuminating pieces trying to penetrate
the core of the Darkest Light. Aldenon's characteristic growling coupled
with Linus's bombastic drums and Karin's serene voice come together
in a tapestry of ritualistic, penetrating and sinister ambiance. Included
are three timeless classics in new and improved formats... Choirs,
strings and intricate orchestrations bring about an unforgettable
tale that won't leave any listener untouched; possibly giving rise
to more questions, than it poses answers.

CYCLOTIMIA
"Trivial Pleasures" CD
(Mono 001) Monopoly Records
Part one in a trilogy of more abstract sound works called "L'Electronique
Mondial". A dramatic contrast to previous releases, CYCLOTIMIA
now shape a completely different transposition of image into music.
In addition to the usually clean and perfected collages, which still
dominantly mark the characteristic aura of CYCLOTIMIA’s music,
the group generates an uncompromisingly sharp and sterile character
of automation as an attempt to transpose trivial modern day-by-day
life mechanisms into music. An audible journey through the data processing
systems of stock markets, fast computers, cash registers, TV sets
and electronic payment systems – disturbing, mind-numbing and
thoroughly modern.
