[EP vol. 17 / Eg0_020] Mescalibur and TGBTS – Lagrange’ Sessions Volume 1

This album is the first volume of the “Lagrange’ Sessions”, a serie of live collaboration by Mescalibur and guests. The CD-R version is available from Mescalibur’s label Entropique Productions, packaged in beautiful hand-made cardboard digipacks.
All sounds were improvised and recorded live at Mescalibur’s Studio on november 21 of 2009. Philippe of Mescalibur has carefully edited and mixed these “anarcho-ambient” sessions (no overdubs) to result in 63 minutes of alien squeaks, embryonic melodies, abstract rumbles and luminescent drones running through endlessly drifting clouds of sounds.
If you want to order a CD-R copy please write to philippe(at)mescalibur.fr
Soon more information on Mescalibur’s site (on which you can also order or download Mescalibur’s solo albums – highly recommended stuff!)

[Eg0_019] Cédric Lerouley – Manifestation

With this new release Eg0cide productions wish to make you discover the work of Cédric Lerouley, a discreet and underestimated drone/experimental artist from France. The 2 tracks of “Manifestation” show 2 sides of his work :  mysterious, subtle & ominous drone (which reminds me a bit of Jim O’Rourke’s “Disengage”) and delicate acoustic minimalist music…

Like most of his music, this album has firstly been published in 2005 as a (now out of print (??)) limited CD-R on COmmA, Cédric’s own label, and was (like all CommA releases) packaged in a splendid handmade cover.

[Eg0_018] Digital Mass – Shatter Fog

Shatter Fog is the first official release of Digital Mass, a collaborative ambient/experimental act. Their members want to remain anonymous, the only thing to know about them is that the number of people involved in this project is subject to changes depending on the albums.
So let’s focus on their music and enter into their experimental soundscapes, amongst abstract foggy drones, occasional minimal beats, parasited sound transmissions from other planets and/or an antediluvian past…

[Sv061] Stillborn Ghosts – Over & Out (2xCDR)

After 3 mp3 releases, Over& Out, Stillborn Ghosts‘ 4th (and probably last) album is available as a double CD-R from Svartgalgh

Description from the label :

“This fantastic long-playing album defies classification! There are elements of drone, ambient, disconstructed and weirdly re-assembled post rock, industrial and dark noise rock. Both discs come with a complimentary deep and subterranean feel. Supremely adventurous and not to be missed! We recommend this big time!”

[Treetrunk093] Mr Vapor Vs TGBTS – Structures In Transit

[Eg0_017] Lusruta – Sailing The Sea Of Nothingness

Despite being Lusruta’s first official release, Sailing The Sea Of Nothingness is a very mature and achieved recording. This epic droning piece could remind you of Steve Roach’s most minimal works like “darkest before dawn” or “a deeper silence” but it has an undoubtedly personal touch…

…Lay down and close your eyes…The sea of nothingness is loaded with powerful bass resonances and discreetly illuminated by an etheral starlight…You are floating, or flying, or drowning – or maybe simply dreaming?… The abyss is pulsating under you, thick and mysterious…The wide night sky upon you makes you breathe freer and deeper….Your mind becomes thin and extensive like the horizon…

…If after this first trip, you don’t want to go back on the ground, please be aware that “Transparent Obscurity”, Lusruta’s 2nd album is in progress, and shall be released on cd-r by eg0cide in a few months. You can already listen to some samples on his myspace page
