NOISE RELATED RANDOM TALK TOPIC

I have seen a couple of labels posting this week that they will no longer ship to Europe because of some new EU regulations

Anyone know what this is about and does it affect Europe shipping to non European destinations?

I found this buried in some crap related to shipping via boat, might be the reason:

"U.S. sellers targeting EU customers must now collect VAT and register for an IOSS account to facilitate the declaration and payment of VAT."

I would assume that this wouldn't affect personal "gifts", but of you're a registered (smaller) business, I can see why you wouldn't want to bother.

Those regulation have been for couple years by now.
Latest what I seen some companies panic is the regulations on product safety and ability to track manufacturers or responsible people. I know some dealers who mentioned they can no longer sell anything that doesnt have barcode. I have my doubts whether this regulation -really- effects all "consumer goods" or rather aimed for already regulated goods.

It sure is nuisance, but in general, I doubt much is changing right now. I am pretty sure still a lot of small businesses have no idea they should be already in IOSS.

In the last couple days I took As Loud as Possible zine out of my shelves and read through some of it again for the xth time. Needless to say here, still an amazing and great publication, and also you can explore something new every time, that you didn't care about...5,10... years ago, because you wasn't just so much interested in it back then.

So, what had my interest this time, was the label portrait of Ides Recordings and the interview with label boss Nicole Chambers. Back then and still now, I liked her own tape Reciprocity. (Don't know much about the rest, but after reading the article again, nowadays most of it could be interesting, for me)

What happened to Ides Recordings and Nicole Chambers? No more releases after 2010, so it seems it didn't last very long after the interview. No or not really useful information to be found on the internet.

Anybody here, who can shed some light into the "disappearance" of Ides Recordings and Ms. Chambers?
Thanks a lot!

Any information would be highly appreciated!
Thank you.

Thank you.

She's still around, albeit in her own way. She lives in a major city and still attends a few noise shows per year. She posts her drawings at instagram.com/drawingpile. I wish she'd make/release more music, but I'd be shocked (and delighted) if that ever happened. If you enjoy Reciprocity, there's also a tape on Tone Filth that offers more of those barren tones and textures.

Yeah, I already ordered the tape on Tone Filth via Discogs, together with the Glass Bath and the Skull Erection tape. Very much looking forward to get them.

New Giftnålen hardcover version looks amazing. Not only hardcover, but also twice as big page. So A4 hardcover instead of A5 paperback. 480 pager makes it heavy and big, but nevertheless, better to read!

Also started reading Broken Flag book. Even if I have kind of read most of it, that was like 15 years ago and there is some extra stuff here compared to ALAP text.

Recent times been damn busy, with every weekend being live shows. Pretty much entire end of year, and finally last gig of year on saturday was doing Grunt instrumental noise in-store-gig. Video posted at Grunt www page or SI video topic. Got all january releases sent to pressing so now one of the main goals would be start working with SI#17 a bit harder! Looking good already, but more needs to be done.

New Giftnålen hardcover version

first i have heard of this! where to acquire?

[FreakAnimalFinland]

For people in USA, I don't know if there are dealers over there? Korm Plastics may be good to order directly. Finns find it from Freak Animal (nhfastore.net ) or Satatuhatta. I am actually running out of copies soon, but will restock for early January when returning from holidays...

My weary eyes thank for the A4 format with the re-edition of Giftnålen. This is one book that lures you right in and it´s hard to stop reading and browsing! Can´t wait to immerse myself in it during the holidays.

I will leave the Broken Flag book for later cos it´s mostly familiar stuff, but it seems the main history piece itself has been expanded with additional material, which is very good - rather than slap some newer bonus article in the end.
