Dead and gone short lived Finnish label, New Old Sentinel. Some CD's, some CDR's, some tapes.
Cloama"Cloama" CD
Real CD and damn good one. It is experimental, pretty damn unique sound. Not power electronic, not noise, not really drone per se. Not ambient. What it is, is unusual very advanced Cloama own style release you can't really put in any category. It is dirt cheap still today, even if being done back in 2005.
Somnivore + Kivelä CDR,
edition of 100 and goes into similar category with Cloama CD. Can't really categorize, even if it ain't anything outrageously different. Some sort of experimental, noisy soundscapes, that are really cool and always nicely floating forward. If it would not be under such name, but have some nice name like.... "Illusion of Safety", maybe that kind of listener would have noticed it, hah..
Post-industrial soundscapes done 20 years ago, I guess its less sexy moment, but I would make assumption that these releases will sound good still 2040, while some of now hot things might not... At least Cloama will. Not sure if the CDR will survive till that date.
ConDemek "Technological Shack Job" CD
Functional
I don't hear ConDemek mentioned too often. I recall friend was listening this CD while ago when visiting him. Have had this about since it came out, and back then, when didn't have internet access home, couldn't visit the neat URL written in disc... So ConDemerk was very mysterious group I know nothing of.
Well, honestly, still now, I guess I only know their musical output, and not even all of that. Don't think I ever read interview or checked out what they may have done after, or besides ConDemek. Any other projects? .. May have to take a look at discogs. What I do know, that compared to how good their recordings are, industrial-noise kind of stuff, they tend to be dirt cheap still now.
This CD has exceptionally funny.. or deranged series of prank calls or... just calls? Christian Phonesex pt 1-6 goes throughout the album, with type of language and words that ain't that fresh in current times.
Functional Organization put this out, and when you think that 90's was not yet huge era of industrial reissues, but this Tesco sublabel did plenty. Con-Dom, Contrastate, Mental Destruction, Satori, BDN, Illusion of Safety, Archon Satani, Asche,... so many may know those names, and ConDemek goes just fine among the rest. Haven't checked lately, but I assume these are still dirt cheap?
K2/AMK/THE HATERS "Three phenomena" CD
Vinyl Communications
Earlier same day was listening some recent Grunt noise recordings, and then listening this and thinking... got to make better noise! Of course that was just live takes so far, so once its done, maybe matching level of 90's classics, hah.. This CD here is 1997 K2 basically cutting best cuts of sound submissions. I guess you could almost see it as extension of the noise tournaments series. That 7" series SHOULD be CD.
So yes, this is K2 doing editing for all material. One track of K2+Haters, one track K2 with AMK and Haters and last one K2 & AMK. All so god damn brilliant.
K2 of this era has such distinctive sound, that even if it is often "metal junk", if it takes you more than 2 seconds to recognize K2 metal junk, you have clearly not been listening much of his mid-late 90's output.
Very soon to be announced is repress of Macronympha "membranes and black holes" CD, and that has Macro using K2 source sounds throughout the album. Every time K2 source hits in, you recognize it 1000%. It is very odd, when thinking how much there is metal junk banging and cutting noise, and this one guy managed to develop such unique sound nothing sounds like it.
On this CD seen in picture, K2 cutting method is phenemenal. Also very unique way of cutting sound.
On top of everything, jewelbox with obi, that has Vinyl Communications label previous noise titles advertized. What we have here is... Merzbow Oersted, The Haters Mind the Gap, Merzbow Hybrid Noise Bloom... Zipper Spy, Psywarfare, etc.. It is very very rate I hear anyone mention Vinyl Communications. I guess since it is not exclusively noise label, it ain't that hot label name to mention? But we do talk about Relapse..
