Sons capturés depuis l'éternité

(Jean-Jacques Perrey (born 20 January 1929) was a French electronic musician, composer and an early pioneer in the electronic music genre.

He was studying medicine in Paris when he met Georges Jenny, inventor of the Ondioline. Quitting medical school, Perrey travelled throughout Europe demonstrating this keyboard ancestor of the modern synth. At the age of 30, Perrey relocated to New York City, sponsored by Carroll Bratman, who built him an experimental laboratory and recording studio at 209 West 48th Street. Here he invented "a new process for generating rhythms with sequences and loops", utilising the environmental sounds of musique concrète. With scissors, splicing tape and tape recorders, he spent weeks piecing together a uniquely comic take on the future. Befriending Robert Moog, he became one of the first Moog musicians, creating "far out electronic entertainment". 

In 1965 Perrey met Gershon Kingsley, a former collaborator of John Cage. Together, using an Ondioline and Perrey's loops, they created two albums for Vanguard: Perrey - Kingsley - The In Sound From Way Out! (1966) and Perrey & Kingsley - Kaleidoscopic Vibrations (1967). Perrey & Kingsley also collaborated on sound design for radio and television advertising.

Perrey returned to France, composing for television, scoring for ballet and continuing medical research into therapeutic sounds for insomniacs. Finally, died at 4th November, 2016 in Switzerland at 87).

In the path of false truth

(Theologian is a one member project from NY, leaded by Leech (also the mastermind behind the renowned power electronics/death industrial outfit Navicon Torture Technologies). Punishing black industrial, apocalyptic darkwave frequencies, and nerve-rending electronic deathscapes. 

This album is a collection of collaborations between Theologian and a lineup of female vocalists/artists from both within the industrial/noise/dark ambient/coldwave realm and beyond, with contributions from Rachael Kozak (Hecate), Kristen MacArthur (Sewer Goddess), Rachel Maloney (Tonikom), Nikki Telladictorian (Prometheus Burning), Patricia Benitez (Fetish Drone), Gillian Leigh Bowling (Teloahqaal), Christiana Key (Delphic Oracle), Joan Hacker (Factoria), Shari Vari (Void Vision), and professional opera singer Melissa C. Kelly. 

The tracks shift from grinding industrial dread to ethereal coldwave beauty, blasts of rumbling blackened synthcrush met with washes of haunting electronic melody, while always remaining rooted in Theologian's bleak, jet-black industrial sound).

Däëmötïön ëntör

(Öxxö Xööx is a French Avant Garde/Doom band formed by Gautier Serre, Laure Le Prunenec, Laurent Lunoir and Thomas Jacquelin; the band features Öxxö Xööx (Igorrr/ WHOURKR) on full songwriting duties and the operatic treasure (Rïcïnn/Corpo-Mente/Igorrr) on guest vocals, also utilizes synth guitar processing by cybermetal mastermind MASTER BOOT RECORD.

Expanding the thematic foci of the band, their self-created language peels back layers surrounding the nature of reality while trying to comprehend the truth of an ambiguous and ominous “cube.” The album opens with a solemn funeral dirge – for a character, for mankind, or perhaps for sanity. Oozing with beauty and melancholic doom, the album gives way to bell-like organs before drums build to an assault. The record shifts rapidly from haunting laments to utter desperation and unhinged mania as the 78-minute journey spirals deeper and deeper into the maze of enigma).
