Страдание от отказа

 
(Parzival is a Russian Martial/Industrial group based in Denmark, founded in 1999, which grew out of a previous project called "Stiff Miners". Heavily influenced by Kapital-era Laibach, the group creates an bombastic neo-classical music with electronic percussion, plenty of string and horn samples, and dramatic vocals mainly in German. The band is formed by Dmitry Bablevsky, Julia Popova, Peter Mesnickow and Tim Ellegaard.
 
This album is the first part of an album trilogy with the overall title “Tradition And Discipline” continuing with the albums “Grimoire” and “Teurgia”, which will follow in the coming years. Musically the three albums will sound like Parzival, but each one with their own character that reflects Parzival’s diverse musical work throughout the years).

Leabhar Iona a shábháil

 
(Bruno Coulais (born 13 January 1954) is a French composer, most widely known for his music on film soundtracks. Bruno Coulais's musical style may vary significantly between different projects, but there are some constant factors visible: his taste for opera and for human voice (in particular that of children), for a search for original sonority, for world music and mixing different musical cultures, and finally, a certain tendency to give preference to the ambience created by lighting rather than the film's narration).

(True Deceiver is a one man Post Metal/Shoegaze project from Albany, NY, formed in 2016 by Tom Filepp).
 
 

Climbing on golden stairs

 
(Haunted Horses is an Industrial-Punk duo formed by Colin Dawson (Keys/Guitar/Vox) and Myke Pelly (Drums), hailing from Seattle, WA. Their sound is thunderous and chaotic, utilizing wall of noise techniques through an onslaught of keys, guitars and drums. Myke Pelly's off kilter drumming and Colin Dawson's architectural noise structures create jittery post-punk that is both upbeat and gloomy. The bleak vocals are persistently ominous in a seductive way, conjuring up the nightmarish aura of a dissonant horror-film soundtrack).
 

A touch from the unknown

 
(Flying Saucer Attack is an Experimental/Shoegaze/Space Rock band that formed in Bristol, England in 1992. David Pearce was the core member of the group, and Rachel Brook (of Movietone, another Bristol band) was a member for most of the band's lifetime.
 
The band were marked by quiet vocals and sheets of feedback with similarities to contemporary shoegazing bands, or The Jesus and Mary Chain. FSA were able to create a small but enthusiastic fanbase as one of the more remarkable experimental bands of the day. The band were notable for recording most of their output at home into a normal home stereo system, avoiding recording studios as much as they could. This gave their music a DIY feel and gave them the freedom to experiment as much as they wanted).

Pour tous les robots du passé

 
(Jean-Jacques Perrey (1929 - 2016) 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).
