Lassigue Bendthaus - The Engineers Love

This is the beginning of Uwe Schmidt's hyper-prolific career as a solo artist. Starting out in the industrial disco band Pornotanz with a tape that came out in 1986, Schmidt produced this cassette of cold, heavy synthesizer tunes a couple of years later for the NG Median label. It would be the first time he used the name Lassigue Bendthaus, which would later be applied to more melodic and insanely detailed albums such as Matter and his masterpiece, Render. It's when Schmidt fully embraced techno and ambient music that his productivity exploded, with work appearing under tons more "band" names (Bitniks, VSVN, Almost Digital, Señor Coconut, Urban Primitivism, Lisa Carbon, etc etc), all produced by his pseudonym Atom Heart or Atom(tm).

Lassigue Bendthaus - The Engineers Love

Alfarmania‎ - From Fix To Fix

Swedish industrial noise delivered by Kristian Olsson and Tony Hallén. I think that Tony joined later in the project's life and these earlier releases are the work of Kristian. However, I may have made that up in my own head.

C60 released on Hatband in 2004 in an edition of 45.

Totally recommended!

De Fabriek - Music For Endless Cassettes

The most recent cassette I'm posting by De Fabriek, and one of my favorites. This c60 came out in 1989 on the De Fabriek label, which by the late 80's had become a factory for producing not only music by Richard van Dellen and his rotating cast of factory workers, but also likeminded artists and collaborators such as Yximalloo, Technological Aquiver, Beequeen, Vivenza, Telepherique, The Klinik, and many other weirdos from deep within the international hometaper underground.

I have lots more De Fabriek tapes that I could post, so drop a comment if you like what you're hearing and want more!

De Fabriek - Moda Bella

An excellent tape of industrial clank from 1982 by legendary Dutch industrial band De Fabriek!

De Fabriek - Moda Bella

De Fabriek - Future Print

Another very early De Fabriek tape, this enjoyable1982 session catches them sounding like a loose, very laid back, improvising rock-ish band complete with horns, tapes, and burbling synthesizers.

De Fabriek - Future Print

De Fabriek - Freaks

Dutch mail-art agitators De Fabriek return with a tape full of collaborators, including minimal synth hero Mark Lane, self-released by the band in 1985.

De Fabriek - Freaks

De Fabriek - Depressie

A predictably unpredictable self-released 1989 tape by De Fabriek, one of the most active bands from the 80's/90's industrial cassette network bands.

De Fabriek - Depressie

De Fabriek - Blecheintopf (Music for Modern Art Exhibitions, Volume Two)

Recorded in 1981 and released a year later, this is one of the earliest tapes by Richard van Dellen's multi-faceted and extremely prolific De Fabriek.

De Fabriek - Gold

Remarkable ten-minute tape from 1980 by the massively creative and prolific Dutch industrial band De Fabriek!

Seed Mouth - Scum

Seed Mouth was the work of the late Hirohito Taneguchi.

This is a C60 released on Hiroshi Hashimoto's (aka Contagious Orgasm's) SSSM label in 1991.

Scum

Seed Mouth‎ - Live In Denmark 2001

This was recorded live (obviously) at LAB on Vesterbrogade 107b in Copenhagen in 2001. It was released on Koji Tano's Denshi Zatsuon label in 2003 in an edition of 50.

The edition of 50 might seem like a lot compared with some micro edition esoterics. However, Hirohito Taneguchi rarely played live (especially outside of Japan) and given the label, this is a rare and special thing!

This is 70 minutes of Seed Mouth captured live!

Live In Denmark 2001

Crack Fierce - Full Metal Confused

Hideki Kato's wonderful Crack Fierce. This is a CDr released on Patrick O'Neil's Solipsism in 1998.

This is on discogs but hey, what else do you need to know?

"Crack Fierce was started in Spring 1996, and ended in 1999. I don't remember distinctly Crack Fierce's last release, but perhaps it was "Full Metal Confused" or "Perspicacious Variance". I was influenced from very plentiful various noisicians and avantgardists, like TNB, Organum, Incapacitants, Aube, Thirdorgan, Monde Bruits, Macronympha, Skin Crime, BLJ/Richard Ramirez, etc. etc. etc., many extreme noise, and also influenced by European noise like Kapotte Muziek, THU20, De Fabriek, Das Synthetische Mischgewebe. Also spiritually respect 70's cult German Kraut like Can, Faust, Neu!, and a part of Canterbury prog-rock like Henry Cow, Quiet Sun, This Heat, etc. etc."

So, there you go ...

Full Metal Confused

Various - Highly Recommended For Otologists

Lovely C60 released on the great Ecuadorian Bizarre Audio Arts in 1996.

Eric Boros and J Flower as Hermit, Juan Herrero's underrated and fucked up Gestörte Nachbarn, Emil Beaulieau (once again: All Hail RRRon) and the marvelous Kazuhiro Matsuyama as Crack Steel (aka ... erm ... Cracksteel).

Highly Recommended

THE FUTURE?

We still don't know...we're making this shit up as we go along!

As always, dripfeed us a few requests, we still have changeable minds!

All requests are welcome, no matter what genre!

PRACTICALITIES!

We have had to change file hosts many times since we started in 2009.

Most of the older links are undoubtedly dead. If we were to try to keep every link going there would literally be no time for new posts.

Given that we have an untold number of things that we think need to be heard, it's not possible to do both.

Some things may be re-upped but (as always) we are unlikely to pay any attention to "anonymous" requests.

Entertaining (rather than desperate) requests may stand a chance but don't bet on it!

Get Engaged!
