Atavist / Nadja - Discography

Atavist and Nadja are doom/drone metal bands from the UK and Canada. They have collaborated on two albums. The first, titled 12012291920/1414101, released in 2007 on Invada Records, a UK based record label. Consisting of two near 30 minute pieces of drone and guitar experimentation, it differs from Atavist’s usual style of doom metal, and leans more toward the drone sound of Nadja. The second, titled II: Points At Infinity, was released in 2008 on Profound Lore Records, it again consists of two long tracks, both approxiamately 22 minutes each.

Menace Ruin - Discography

This Quebec’s duo came together in autumn 2006, when they began composing the songs that would form their debut recording, In Vulva Infernum, a scalding blast of synthesized power electronics, programmed drums and noise guitar boosted by amps, slamming against the sides of Geneviève’s frozen, Nico-esque siren vocals.
[…]
as if Hildegard of Bingen were recruited, by time machine, to join Black Sabbath. A mesmerising feast of dark metal noise which, like the best moments of Deathspell Omega, is laced with intense bursts of spiritual visions.

[…]
While the debut album “Cult of ruins”, took its starting point in a brutal cocktail of fast Black Metal and ear-shattering Harsh Noise the follow-up titled “The die is cast” stays true to the metal scene though it doesn’t aim for the sonic extremities. The tempo has been slowed down to heavy down-tempo and martial rythms.

Venetian Snares - The Chocolate Wheelchair Album

Aaron Funk, a Canadian producer of widely varying electronic music styles, achieved a reputation in experimental electronic circles upon his signing to planet µ (label run by Mike Paradinas, aka µ-Ziq). It’s a testament to his production prowess that his base of Winnipeg, Manitoba, hasn’t prevented IDM enthusiasts around the world from investigating his recordings.

Often abbreviated to “Vsnares” – Funk’s distinctive style reflects unconventional time signatures and extremely rapid and erratic rhythms. Unpredictable and stimulating, the effect is intense.

Iskra - Bureval

Iskra is a crust punk band with heavy black metal influence (a style they dub “blackened crust”) from Canada. Iskra was formed by members of the ’90s crust band Black Kronstadt, whose sound was more comparable to that of bands like Provoked. The band has recently been gaining a lot of attention in the NW crust and grindcore scenes. They played at 2007’s Burning Portland, a massive 2 day crust/grind festival. Iskra was denied entry into the US for a recent tour, and had to cancel numerous dates, but were eventually able to finish most of the tour.

Pyramids with Nadja - Pyramids with Nadja

Let me explain further. This guy Pyramids With Nadja is like a massive collaborative effort between Pyramids, Nadja and a number of otherwise established musicians. His instrumentation might be described as an energized ambient, infused with an intelligent ear for avant-garde metal and an almost indiscernible adherence to a sort of pop sensibility. PWN is the kinda guy who would successfully meld the still unparalleled compositional methodology developed in Pyramids' "s/t" album with Nadja's trademarked dirge-like shoegaze on a record and then chalk up the favorable outcome to the fact that all members of Pyramids (f. coloccia, m. dean, m. kraig, r. loren, d. william) and Nadja (Aidan Baker & Leah Buckereff) perform on all four tracks on the record.

And his friends... His friends are all well-known artists, such as: Simon Raymonde of Cocteau Twins and This Mortal Coil (performs bass on track one and four), Albin Julius of Der Blutharsch (performs vocals on track four), Chris Simpson of Mineral (performs vocals on track two), Colin Marston of Dysrhythmia and Behold the Arctopus (co-produced/engineered track one) and James Plotkin of Khanate, Khlyst, O.L.D. Phantomsmasher (mixed and mastered the entire album). And if that weren't enough I heard he knows Ulver and Lustmord (each band remixed the track, "Into the Silent Waves," for a limited ancillary product) So, how can I, just one man, compete with a dreamboat captained by a crew of such diverse and artful virtuosos like Pyramids With Nadja (drum roll)... I couldn't possibly... because when all is said and done, Pyramids With Nadja is a far more suitable mate for my girlfriend than I could ever be... he's clearly better with friends and family, his creativity exhibits a natural flexibility, and you know what, thats ok... I want her to be happy.

This record is highly recommended. Very beautifull ambient soundscapes with soft drone and distortion over it. Four tracks in one hour, you can't do anything wrong with that one. Enjoy!

Aidan Baker & Tim Hecker - Fantasma Parastasie

This is one of my most loved records from the last year. Sound wizard Aidan Baker (Nadja) and Tim Hecker put together on one project. The outcome is very simple. Delicious and fragile ambient soundscapes mixed with drone-fields and soft guitar noises. Notice that rip does contain seven and not seventy seven songs like on the original cd. The tracks are put together so you don't have the annoying skipping noises every few seconds (the original cd got instead of seven "packed together" tracks about 77 single tracks)
