WHAT'S THE POINT?
The intention is to promote people who make beautiful music.
The intention is to introduce you to the people who have been carving their own path...with no care for what anybody thinks.
We try not to post things that are still for sale but sometimes post things that are not easily available. If you like what you hear, then find these people and tell them how great they are.
Better still, tell them and then seek out their new releases and buy them. We add links, when they are reliable and active, so that you can keep track if you so wish.
Always go straight to the artist or the label where possible. That way, the money goes straight to the people responsible for this art. These people rely on our support to keep going and make more quality releases!
Please feel free to leave comments as you go along...at least then we know you appreciate this stuff (or otherwise) and you're not just a bunch of freeloading file collectors.
If you made this music and we have pissed you off by posting any of this, please leave a comment in the post and the offending articles will be removed.

Italian artist Gianluca Becuzzi is known nowadays for his dark ambient and electro-acoustic music, including a run of excellent collaborative albums with Fabio Orsi. Early in his career, though, he made goth/industrial dance music under the name Limbo and would later become a member of seminal Italian electro group Pankow. This is Limbo's 1992 album, released by a label called Dune, which was run by one of the Pankow guys.
Second & final album by a short-lived Italian duo comprised of Maurizio Martusciello (metaXu, Dogon) and writer Nicola Catalano. Ultra-minimal digital clicks and pops released as a CD on the Japanese label Cubicfrabric in 2003. Read more...
Rare LP from 1983 by performance artist, sound poet and writer Nicola Frangione. The record is made up of 47 very short collaborative tracks that all run together. The collaborators are folks from the fine art world as well as the industrial mail-art underground. Some are names you'll recognize: Masami Akita, P16.D4, Gerald Jupitter-Larsen, Naif Orchestra, Lief Brush, SWSW Thrght, Rod Summers, Maurizio Bianchi, Vittore Baroni. The rest are more obscure (at least to me).
