Colonised s:t

Mastering Colonised “s/t”.

Recorded & mixed by Paul Champion at Twin Earth Studios.

From Adelaide, Australia.

“Experience in South Australia’s Aboriginal communities, the death of a parent, and post-traumatic stress disorder are a few of the issues feeding into the emotional hellstorm that is their debut six-song demo, the sound of which is in the mould of those post-punk bands that rocked hard while pounding the clay into some different shapes – like Wipers, Husker Du, Killing Joke, Mission of Burma, feedtime, Midnight Oil!”

 

Hammer Split w: Coupe Gorge

Mastering The Hammer / Coupe Gorge “Split” on Straight & Alert and Contra Records.

“The Hammer is a 4 piece hardcore band from Gotenbörg, Sweden. Their first 7″ No Escape blew me away the very first time I listened to it, so I put out their new 6 track 7″. Now they are back with 3 new tracks from the “Vermin 7″ sessions”. If you are into The Flex, Right Brigade, Think I Care or 86 Mentality you HAVE TO check them out.

COUPE GORGE is part of the new wave of french bands bringing hardcore/punk/oi music sang in french back, along with Syndrome 81, Rixe and alike. CG goes with some raw Negative Approach influenced tracks ‘en Français’ like the band’s anthem “Coupe Gorge”, “Guerre Civile” and “La Nuit” in the mix with thumping French Oi!/streetpunk jams like “Haine” and “Violence”.”

COLD MEAT

Mixing Cold Meat “Jimmy’s Lipstick” on Helta Skelta Records and Static Shock Records.

“The debut 7″ from this new band from Perth, Australia. Cold Meat bring you four tracks of snotty, snarky feminist punk which takes cues from somewhere in between the electric eels and the Nixe, as well as contemporary London punk. Although, really, this is just raw terse punk played with a certain amount of aggression and despair. You can feel years of anger and frustration condensed down into a four track / nine minute fuck you to toxic relationships, subjection and self doubt.”

 

Особые Условия

Mastering Особые Условия “Страх уйти без сожаления” on Издательство Сияние.

продюсирование, запись, сведение – Андрей “Астро” Ганкин, DTH Studios, Москва.

For those of you who do not speak Russian: Osobie Usloviya are a post-punk band from Moscow, Russia. “To sum up: If “Fear to leave without regret” is not the best record of Moscow’s modern post-punk revive scene, then one of its leaders is absolutely certain.”

“Издательство Сияние с гордостью представляет следующий релиз – первый большой полноформатный альбом московской группы Особые Условия. 
«Страх уйти без сожаления» увидел свет через год после дебютного ЕР «Побег». За этот короткий срок группа сумела сочинить и записать очень зрелый и сильный материал. И если проводить аналогии, то очевидно на группу оказывает влияние не манчестерская мрачная волна, а злободневные скинхеды Blitz, заигравшие сдержанный пост-панк еще в 80-ые. Что и следовало ожидать: участники Особых Условий тоже скинхеды, переигравшие в массе легендарных московских oi! групп. Кстати, и не только oi!: Тимур, с недавних пор занимающий пост барабанщика, был причастен к таким культовым именам как Marschak, Ricochet, Loa Loa, Salpetriere. И разумеется, талант и обаяние Тимура пошли Особым Условиям лишь на пользу. 
Подводя итог: Если «Страх уйти без сожаления» не самая лучшая пластинка московской современной пост-панк ревайвл сцены, то одна из ее лидеров совершенно точно.”

Belgrado

Mastering Belgrado “Obraz” on La Vida Es Un Mus.

“Obraz is a deconstruction of reality to its basic forms and most. primitive elements. The starting point after maximum destruction. A. reconstruction towards a new reality. The world of images and a thousand spectacles, fragmented, dismantled and reassembled. Dynamism, rhythm, energy and movement. Creative sense over technique. Reality is a construction that we ourselves create. Belgrado delivers a blend of post-punk that takes its influence from many different styles and combines them together into a new form and rhythm. Carefully constructed sound compositions driven by feeling and the senses. Geometrical figures set in motion. Inspired by the mechanical pulse of minimal synth, the hypnotic sounds of dub, the atmosphere of psychedelic and African music, French cold wave, and the post-punk classics. The artwork is a collaboration between Jonathan Sirit, Camila Dunster and Patrycja Proniewska. It includes a 28 pages illustrated booklet.”
