The Cherry Blues Project - Rescued tapes [ac048]

El título del disco es "Rescued Tapes", dividido en dos volúmenes. El disco es una especie de antología de temas que sobraron entre los años 2001 y 2007 y quisimos juntarlos en un disco. Los discos de donde han surgido la mayoría de los temas de este volumen son: Cosmic Trash (2001), At Home (2002), Canciones de los Mundos Oníricos (2003). Animals (2005), DVD "Documentary of Blues" - Inédito (2007); Lude es un tema nuevo. En el disco se notan paisajes sonoros, sonidos surrealistas, u otros que consideramos y llamamos "oníricos". También se advierten situaciones "ambient" y atmosféricas.
Creemos que valió la pena juntar estos temas, ya que suenan bien en conjunto a pesar de ser temas que provienen de diferentes épocas de la banda. Pareciera que los temas habían quedado afuera por alguna razón, y hoy creemos que la razón es este disco.

Adrián Juárez/Kenneth Kirschner - Untitled [ac046]

This EP is an ambiental exquisiteness. Untitled tastes mild and intense, music gently flows from the beginning. No doubt about it, it's a great collaborative piece between Adrián and Kenneth.

But you will not even be aware of each sound you hear, you'll hear Artik, Let your ears enjoy with this multicultural sonic voyage.

Lezet - Earpiece [ac042]

Pentliczek's music is an ongoing , genre-defying travelogue not wanting in structure nor execution.Lezet's "Earpiece" attempts at unriddling and re-interpreting the original Pentliczek timbre while paying homage to this music royalty.Knuckling down to working on this collection was an enlightening as well as a rewarding experience.
Kudos to Dominik Gawara for giving Lezet a permission to embark on such a wonderful voyage.

Pharmakustik - Nephrospasis [ac041]

"In the oliguria of acute sonoric insufficiency which occurs as a result of trauma and catharsis was born Nephrospasis, a horizontal acoustic area of extracellular fluids and blood-plasma-fractions. After reverberating fluid intake has been permanently increased and vasopressor response accelerated, the oliguric listener enters the acoustic phase of nephron nephrosis and uremic ambience. Absorption of harmonies by antiseptic cleansing." (Siegmar Fricke)

Noi - Rand [ac038]

This is perhaps the most mystical and deep work of all Noi's works. An approach to the most classic ambient; a work of contrasts with certain sweet and sour touch, and always trying to support the emotivity in his highest point. In this case, the use of oscillators of low and high frequencies is the starting point in a semi-aleatory succession using simultaneously different field recordings to offer a proper and personal meaning to every cut. The repetition and the disorder coexist deliberately to reflect and to transmit simultaneously the reality of the life itself in four tracks that work in session or individually. Indicated for moments of abstraction and isolation.

Ensemble Phase 3 - Interpunctiones [ac037]

This release is very special. After contacting with Ensemble Phase 3, they decided to publish some material @ Abdicate Cell (great!), so they decided what tracks to send me. They were not active as E.P.3 at the moment, but had some recordings. So here it is, a special selection by E.P.3.
The music is also special, they work with improvised music, they play classical/experimental music. Download and enjoy this great ensemble's music.

Legion - L'Etoile du Matin Noir [ac036]

"...I allowed my friend Edgeist to listen to some of these samples, and he was like "dude, you've got everything you need to start an album". I followed his words, and started to work on the thing. A few days later, "Scorched Earth" and "Haunted Cathedral" were born. Once again, Edgeist was very enthusiastic, so I kept working, and other tracks were born. Then time passed, I created a few more tracks, and reworked most of the first tracks, sometimes very deeply ("Haunted Cathedral", which ultimatly turned into a remix of one of Edgeist's piece of music, has now almost nothing similar with the 2005 original version)."

L'etoil du matin noir is dark, ambient, a soundtrack for the obscure. Great album, so thanks Edgeist for encouraging Legion to create this album.

Lezet - Performance is inherently unlikely [ac035]

"Performance is inherently unlikely" speaks of Lezet's duel with his computer.The machine is here coerced into becoming a collaborator rather than a tool. The structures, piano-led or growing out of ambient-noise pretext, strive to open a dialogue within individual tracks. The results are presented herein.

ejgb - arbol1 [ac034]

Arbol1 is the result of a project that in principle was conceived to be shared with friends and close people. In some way it was summoning up own life, thanks partly to the Tiziana Fantone and Ruben d'Hers aid. Arbol1 is "a simple recreation of complex moments".

Helmeticrononaut - Bong [ac031]

Helmeticrononaut's recent work is a psycho-isotropic unbelieveable equilibrium/organicity that takes us back to the organic unbelieveable evolution. This work, at once crimson and adventurous, will remind the educated listener of the risky aesthetic-based latent technology, with startling originality, as an intoxicated mixing of demonology and general insurrection. The best you can do is listen to this great two track piece wich is Bong and enjoy the noise.

Minuit - Luto iberico [ac030]

"My aim is to create a profound listening experience that can refresh your physical state by suggestion and transport your mind to these breathtaking places."

Ambient noise and sound sources:
the forest rains & beach environments of Euskadi, the rivers and acoustic spaces from random rooms in Catalunya, the underground subway and train systems of Madrid and the heavy construction machinery plus waters of Perpinya.

lodemidiQuail - Analog bounty on the WAV DJ [ac029]

The uncomfortable sensation which you will soon experience in your shoulders is a symbol of hunger. If cemeteries refuse to treat toaster ovens as reassurances, then it is necessary that someone must demand domains that serve the function of facsimiles, or domains that cancel sociably the loves of eminence. At any cost, it is necessary to re-connect clarifications to memories. What the world needs is not charities against problems, but outrageous loves against automations which are argumentative, or just medieval... or maybe not ;)
Meanwhile, you can enjoy this great recording.

Petr Drkula - Surfaces [ac028]

A harmonic and melodic features are not as much important components in the piece as easy variations of timbres and tempi. This other hierarchy of musical elements forms a platform for my own notions of sound architecture. It is an extensive complex of unchanging rhytmical figures what makes these differently coloured and homogenous surfaces during the whole composition.

AATMAA+Enlil - Axon [ac027]

This recording is the first of the "mutualism series". In this ocasion AATMAA and Enlil collaborated in the construstion/deconstruction arround the axon idea. Exploring the primary transmission lines of the nervous system, creating spaced intervals with a rapid mode of electrical impulses,propagation,transference and mutation.

Y - Hong Kong Foo [ac026]

A new EP published!!

This one-track EP was recorded as a part of a project wich basic idea was to just play instruments without thinking of the music in advance,named "Y". The only deal was to play without any deal among the musicians,often trying not to listen to each other too much.

The results: experimental/avant/free jazz

QB - Abstract works [ac024]

Contemporary glass blowing can be your failure to think of yourself or simply your inability to doubt what you hear.

The present recording is more like your underlying motivation. This work, at once tasty and conscious, invites us to the experience the classic paradoxical anti-realism, represented here as a 8 tracks recording.

You know, abstract works, the new LP from the hand of QB.

Lezet - "." (ac020) released!


Melody and hubbub play their respective parts on the nature of the compositions present on this e.p. The experimental musician from Serbia is here inspired by asthma seizures, the percussive effects of the instruments that forged the pieces, and their creative potential.Ideas are expressed sonically through a series of dissonant musings ; but dissonance is heavily subjected to the melodic mainframe.The title itself - "."- argues the desired length of a musical piece. Is making of a 10-second composition more rewarding and inspirational than an 8-minute one?"

ac #018 released!

Pictures to you is fruit of a collaboration between C-J Larsgården (Sweden) and Sergi Saldaña (Norway/Spain). We have tried to capture the feeling in 20 selected photos and from that feeling translate it into sounds. Out of this we made this two pieces for "pictures to you".
