The Haters - Future Cheers CD
Essential reissue! "I enjoy destroying everything because I enjoy leaving nothing un-destroyed." Originally released as a cassette on the Sound of Pig label in 1986, Future Cheers is a crucial piece in The Haters discography from multimedia artist and entropic sound collector GX Jupitter-Larsen. A potent collection of clatter and smash best experienced at full volume, the material has been carefully remixed & remastered, with an additional piece re-worked by John Wiese from the original tape.

Spastic Colon - Spastic Colon CD
The long-running project of Erik Hoffman and Jorge Martin releases its first full-length CD, reuniting with Troniks for the first time since the legendary CALIFORNIA 10LP box set. Originally slated for release in 2007 on Hoffman's Ground Fault Recordings but shelved with the label's hiatus, Spastic Colon has now been uncovered and unleashed, a masterpiece of uncomfortable electronics and intoxicating sound collage, disturbing hum and spurting chirps.
Trance - Ancient History CD
San Francisco-based musician, artist, and writer Mason Jones has been a giant force in the experimental underground for more than 30 years, from founding the influential record label Charnel Music and publishing the Ongaku Otaku magazine, curating the legendary Japanese / American Noise Treaty compilation for Release Entertainment, touring extensively and recording under a variety of guises and collaborations, including his earliest work under the moniker Trance. Ancient History collects three live tracks of shifting sound, industrial haunt, and ritual chaos, including the project's first-ever live performance (1991), the Heinz Club Oakland set (1992) opening for the fabled C.C.C.C. show documented on their Loud Sounds Dopa disc, and an expanded, completely remastered version of the Live at the Starlight Furniture Company session (1991) recorded with Jojo & Junko of Hijokaidan and Elden M. of Allegory Chapel Ltd, previously released as a sought-after 7" record.

Skull Sküll - Come to One CD
Jagged waves of shrieking shatter from the dueling guitars of Aaron Hemphill and Jarrett Silberman. Excavated from the deep archives of the mid-2000s Los Angeles explosion, Count to One shows the Skull Sküll pairing at their most chaotic, from tumbling concrete to steely landscapes, and is an essential rediscovery proudly presented by Helicopter / Troniks.
"An uncompromising and austere listen, filled with huge swaths of noise, feedback and confusion. It was also an incredible listen. Either to use a musical palate cleanser or to just get lost in." - Vital Weekly
