MACRONYMPHA-naked denunciation of infrasonic exchange-(c60-1995 Noise-Taiwan)

How to introduce Macronympha??? This is in fact a rather old
noise project based in Pittsburgh(USA) which was founded by Joseph
Roemer and Rodger Stella. They have been collaborating
with lots of other artists over the years on different
productions under this name, releasing mostly
cassettes on different tape-labels. They've never played
outside the States; even so they are quite famous all over
the world. The music is a personal form of sound-collage
of metal-junk looped and remixed to create a wall of noise which is
quite interesting to me. This C-60 tape came out in 1994
released by the Taiwanese label called NOIZE in a very special
package of a photocopy on plastic paper, and one picture
that creates a strange layered collage of pseudo-porn macro
image(pictures included in this folder). It includes 6
tracks; 2 of them live recordings from 2 different gigs
back in the 1994. I have no idea how many copies were
printed by this label with this special package, but I know
that their own label Mother Savage Noise Production re-
released it as tape on 2009.

m.o.a.t.a. omen-the rorschach garden-split tape(fich art -germany-c90-1993)

another great cassette from thee German industrial label Fich-Art transferred for us by [[F@R@W@Y]] from thee collection ov Gulglielmo Lanzili [Biotope Arts Organisation!!] [[note: due to thee duration ov thee cassette it was broken into two parts here and here..]]

M.O.A.T.A.-OMEN tis thee projekt ov Sven Pügge who was also a member ov thee great German elektronikx projekt Ars Moriendi!! thee tracks he provides here seem to be a mixture ov dark atmospherix with great minimal tekno/ elektro with interestingly processed vocals!! rather than attempting to draw comparisons with other industrial acts; will simply express my opinion that this tis a very effing worthily listenable projekt for fans ov these sort ov genres!! tis interestingly subdued at times; rather than just being a barrage ov tumultuous assaults..

The Rorschach Garden started in 1988 as a solo projekt ov Philipp Münch [Ars Moriendi, Cell Auto Mata, The Incredible Three, Mandelbrot, Monokrom, Rasputeen In Heavy Leather, Rasputin, Show Of Exaggeration, Synapscape, Templegarden's]and has gone through various lineup changes over thee years.. thee most recent lineup tis a duo consisiting ov Münch and Natascha Ruf.. thee material which thee projekt presents here consists ov brilliant elektro pieces which are very much complimentary to thee materials ov thee previous side ov this split cassette; though with a bit better fidelity in thee production values.. cannot knock either side honestly.. this tis some great effing elektro/ industrial.. hopefully some ov you may enjoy!!
