HalloGallo sampler#1-CDR-oldiesbutgoldiescomputer artwork

/Not so often do I like a noise record enough to review it here. In fact, I liked Nigella K’s sense of shortness quite a lot before discovering this was an excerpt of the original title (stick to excerpts). Quite infamous names are featured here and all at their best including Monobrain, Fckn’Bstrds, V., Hinyouki and Il Mestruo delle Puttane (all doing their usual type of noise, ie analogue, grind, ambient, digital and digital again). Under the 45’ limit, all quite listenable more than once, stick to excerpts I say.

Harm Stryker - autoprod - CDR - nice clear blue is blue & clear & really nice

/HS guidelines excerpt: choose your battles wisely, consider what you hope to affect and insure that it is a worthy cause; do not vandalize for pointless recreation; make your assertions into facts supported by solid evidence. Serious it sounds, uh. Serious as darn shit probably is, but these are serious matters, aren’t they and these are in-depth sentences worth a little thought aren’t they. Music on this all clear blue CD is minimally pounding rhythmic voicic melodic ambientish electronics. Good, almost as good as the ideas on the flyer coming with it.
