Luasa Raelon / Envenomist

Requested re-up from (unbelievably) 22 months ago. David was one of the first artists that I approached directly to post his OOP stuff...and he is a thoroughly nice man! Never did get that compilation list though.
In the words of the man himself..."David Reed has been producing heavy electronic music under various monikers since the year 2000. He currently records under three active solo projects, luasa raelon, brittle foundries and envenomist. Envenomist is sourced solely using synthesisers to produce a minimal industrial ambience heavily influenced by 80's Industrial acts and the European synth scene of the 70's. Luasa Raelon is a far-ranging death industrial/dark ambient project dealing with narrative themes and using whatever materials are at hand for sound and textures to create the requisite material. Brittle Foundries began as music concrete/academic project but has journeyed into territories of desolation and despair while retaining a subtle beauty. Also active in Nightmares with Jon Canady and Mark Solotroff. Past work with Starlight Fleecing, Rocco DiPietro, Larry Marotta, the Avant Collective, Jason Zeh, and Mike Shiflet."
All of this is OOP...David runs his own label (Snip-Snip Records) and you can buy the releases still available here and check out the latest news here . David has said he will give me a list of his personal favourite works/tracks to post as a compilation type thing. I have loads that is still in print (and therefore can't post) so have heard nearly everything...it would make for some fantastic listening!
Gotta admit I've never heard Brittle Foundries...or seen any for that matter...
Finally...SS Envenomind is a 3-way collab between the guys behind Spine Scavanger, Envenomist and Hive Mind, btw...

Hair Stylistics / Yoshio Kuge / Atsuhiro Ito / ??? - Live:Album
Another three cdr set from 2010 this time. Again three hours plus of mayhem!
Yoshio Kuge is the punk/underground drummer who has played with many Japanese underground groups including Maher Shalal Hash Baz, Masami Shinoda Unit and Les Rallizes Denudes amongst many others.
Atsuhiro Ito makes use of fluorescent lighting (which is also an element of his art installations) in the creation of an original musical device called the optron. He is also active in a number of musical outfits, one being Optrum, the explosively loud "extreme optical noise core band" consisting of Ito and drummer Yoichiro Shin.
