Austin Smith/SLP – Dissolution of the Cube (2010)



  • Experimentalism 
  • Rhythmic noise 
  • Avant-garde 
  • Acousmatic music
  • Improvised noise 
  • Psycho-acoustic
  • Abstract 
  • Post-industrial 
  • Non-music 
  • Power electronics

Comment: this 6-track issue is a split between such artists as SLP, and Austin Smith on the Italian imprint Spettro. One can hear impressive noisy orchestrations full of pulsating nodules and elliptically rounding soundscapes, elemental hurricane-alike outbursts,  signal-alike static tensions and smouldering grayish reverberations within this 40-minute body. All of that is both physically and mentally pushed forward to drill one`s cerebral hemispheres. On the other side, it can be seen from the perspective of a grasshopper who is frightened due to impending death by an oncoming lawnmower. Microscopic and macroscopic levels are set out to reflect upon each other in a destructive way. Every part of the whole reflects mirrors toward the whole, and vice versa. That`s a crazy horse.

Soletik – Directional (2017)




  • Glitch-hop 
  • Electronic music 
  • Avant-techno 
  • Breakbeat 
  • Post-industrial 
  • Glitchtronica

Comment: this 22-notch mammoth release by Soletik reflects upon some sort of incongruousness within the Directional structure and following and questing subsequent tensions because of it. The breaks are heavily chopped-up, magnified and amplified to take a cacophonous lead over the course of an 86 minute. Stylistically one can hear different club and electronic music elements like techno, house, electro, breakbeat. Frequently the dominant aspect is challenged by fragmented melodies and harmonies as if the irritating counterpoint to it. It is like a symptom describing a deranged human mind, and it is also a prediction what will have happened in societies in 2018. As many signs will have shown people get tired of artificial arrangements of the economics, societal relationships, an imminent, unreasonable burden of migrants. They are searching for a free version of life, seeking for the true version of democracy, for the vox populi. The question is not about either the right wing or left wing, it is all about the survival of (representative) democracy. The mind-provoking issue is a part of the discography of Fusion Netlabel.
