Masche – ‘Oxia Chaos’ (DL/MC – limited to 40)

Masche was born in 2013 in Canavese, Italy as an open collective (Anatrofobia, 3eem, Ex-p), aiming at finding sonic combinations between electronics, rock, and improvisation.  Their latest album fuses quirky electronics with deconstructed funk bass and free jazz skronks; sounding to these ears like The Pop Group and Glaxo Babies at their most experimental and loose.

 Salisman & His Hermetic Order ‘Clairvoyance’ (DL/MC – limited to 50)

Following their acclaimed 2020 debut ‘Absolution’, the Anglo-American project (Chicagoans Paul Foreman and Travis Salisbury, with Tyneside’s Chris Tate) continue the expert song writing and meticulous attention to detail on their second album; upping the ante with moments of psych, Americana, shoegaze and - on tracks such ‘Crystal Window Hangings – full-blown acid-prog rock workouts.  Immerse yourself in it, you will not be disappointed.

 Omnibael ‘Rain Soaks The Earth Where They Lie’ (DL/MC – limited to 60)

Last seen on 2021’s split with NYC noise-punks, Lip Critic, Stoke’s Omnibael enter 2022 with a raging debut, developing further the dark dense industrial nihilism with Burroughsian cut-ups, tape loops and gnarly noise.  And whilst that may dominate the album, it’s the percussion that kills. Armed with a host of drum machines and samplers, they create a barrage of beats that hammer away amidst a murky cacophony of dense, disturbing sound. And it’s heavy as hell, particularly with the vocals which are by turns shrieking demonic and droning atonal.  FFO Godflesh; Throbbing Gristle; The Body

 Pigments ‘Thought Forms’ (DL/MC – limited to 40)

Pigments is an electronic ambient project from Porvoo, Finland, which crafts ambient soundscapes with various synths, live instruments, loops and voice. 'Thought Forms' is inspired by Hilma af Klints strikingly original abstract art and her philosophy and involvement in spiritualism and Theosophy in the early 20th century. It gravitates around mysticism and scientific advances, exploring themes of revelation, belief systems and science fiction, to a soundtrack of evolving electronic ambience, drone and experimental soundscapes.

 Charlie Butler ‘Deep Space’ (DL/MC – limited to 40)

Charlie Butler is a Reading based artist who began a series of solo releases in 2021 exploring weird, heavy and hypnotic sounds alongside being a member of Cody Noon (see 2020’s ‘Ace Of Wands’ https://cruelnaturerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/ace-of-wands), Mothertrucker and Head Drop. A prolific artist, ‘Deep Space’ is his first solo release of 2022: four tracks of beautiful ambient guitar ranging from bleak post-rock laments to heavy, slow-burning drones in the vein of Godspeed, Codeine, Papa M, Earth and Barn Owl. What’s it all about?  Isolation and taking solace in Star Trek, of course!

 MAbH (Mortuus Auris & the Black Hand) ‘Unnamed Vagabond’ (DL/MC – limited to 40)

MAbH is the solo project of UK based artist Peter Taylor, who has been producing music since 2008 and made his CN debut in early 2021 with ‘Look Under (see https://cruelnaturerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/look-under).  'Unnamed Vagabond' is two pieces of musique concrète, improv and noise that maximises loops made using scratched and sculpted old vinyl, while exploring improvised vocal and non-instrument compositions. The album contains 60 minutes of experimental improvisation and avant-garde composition, decorating the hour-long running time with cracks of light, shards of shadow, and moments of insanity.

SCUOLA DI FORMAZIONE #1 - WALLACE RECORDS

Un omaggio a Mirko Spino e alla sua etichetta, una guida spirituale dell’underground italiano. 

Questi sono i primi titoli che mi sono venuti in mente legati. Alla Wallace Records dico grazie perché più che una scuola di formazione sono stati una vera palestra per l’intelletto e un punto di partenza per esplorazioni ulteriori.

MADRIGALI MAGRI - NEGARVILLE In principio era Giovanni Succi, poi sono arrivati i Bachi Da Pietra e alla fine è tornato Succi da solo (collaterale: gli OvO, altra storia meravigliosa)

 A SHORT APNEA - S/T Praticamente il rumore del cielo che cade.

ANATROFOBIA - TESA MUSICA MARGINALE Quando il titolo di un disco spiega al meglio la musica che contiene. E viceversa.

DÄLEK VS ZU - S/T Il rumore a passeggio con l’improvvisazione. L’unica forma di jazz post-industriale che possiate immaginare.

XABIER IRIONDO - IRRINTZI Un grande chitarrista e una sfida: un disco “politico” e di pura avanguardia.

I CAMILLAS - COSTA BRAVA L’unica forma di pop-(post)moderno italiano possibile.

Anatrofobia – Lecosenonparlano (2003)

The usual worthy record from the catalogue of Wallace Records, an admirable italian label fond of underground avant-garde creative music and operating with a true DIY punk attitude.

This time we're faced with some gorgeously crafted post-jazz-core, imaginative and broad-based yet linear ad not verbose at all, sometimes even caressing some kind of melody (hey, they're italian, after all).

Wallace Records: una compilation per festeggiare il ventennale

Wallace Records nel 2019 festeggia i vent’anni. L’etichetta apre i battenti nel 1999 con la pubblicazione di una compilation, “Tracce”, fotografia di una fetta della scena dell’epoca ai confini tra punk e avanguardia. E che fetta: One Dimensional Man, Six Minute War Madness, Starfuckers, A Short Apnea, solo per citare alcune delle band presenti.

Per i successivi 20 anni continua a fare…
