Kali Malone – Velocity of Sleep (XKatedral, 2017)
While still waiting for her new release it is time to remember Kali Malone’s 2017 record “Velocity of Sleep“, which was released on vinyl in a limited number of only 100 copies, but it seems that XKatedral did a reissue lately. The first and only track on Side A is “Velocity of Sleep” – a…

Richard H. Kirk – Sandoz – #9294
First of all … the output of music that late Richard H. Kirk (who most of you may know as co-founder of Industrial music legend Cabaret Voltaire from Sheffield) produced as Sandoz is much larger than I thought … I was misguided by some article or advertisement I read years ago shortly before buying his…

Reflections on Kali Malone’s „Living Torch“ – 2022

Nze Nze – Adzi Akal (2022/2023)
“Adzi Akal” heißt angeblich “Iss das Metall”. Und mit dem gleichnamigen Genre hat die Platte so rein gar nichts zu tun. Wir haben hier ein verstörendes Werk des Post-Industrial vorliegen, gemischt mit DUB, Cyber-Trance, düsteren repetitiven Beats, undefinierbaren elektronischen Klängen, die einmal eine Gitarre gewesen sein mögen. Das französische Trio spielt eine Serie von mythologischen…

Kali Malone – Living Torch (2022)
Während ich noch auf die Veröffentlichung des kooperativen Werkes von Kali Malone mit Stephen O’Malley und Luca Railton “Does Sprong Hide Its Joy” warte, das nach Veröffentlichung sicher hier zu besprechen sein wird, fällt mir das 2022 bei Bandcamp veröffentlichte Album “Living Torch” der Schwedin in die Hand. Die Komposition wurde ursprünglich von der Groupe…
