Fulldozer Records presents the long-awaited CD reissue of Theodor Bastard's early experimental album "Live In Heaven", originally released in 2001 in an extra-limited edition on cassette and CD-R in a handmade cardboard envelope. There are only three live albums in Theodor Bastard's discography, each of them vividly illustrates a certain stage of the band's creativity. "Live In Heaven" is at a crossroads between the band's early noise experiments and songwriting, captured on the next album "Pustota" (2004, Fulldozer Records). The album consists of seven tracks recorded in 2000-2001 in St. Petersburg at the Experimental Sound Gallery (GES-21) and two tracks recorded at the electronic music festival Free Fly Fest 2 at the Spartak club in 2000. The album also features two studio tracks and one hidden bonus track. Some compositions from "Live In Heaven" were later included in the album "Pustota" in modified versions - "Sample Rate" turned into "Alteya" and "Output" into "Selva".
In the early 2000s, Theodor Bastard's live acts were electronic performances based on the themes of alienation and mechanization of the surrounding world. The band members went on stage in gas masks and ingenious hats looking like "universal soldiers" helmets. In the beginning of 2001 the first live recording was made in the Experimental Sound Gallery featuring the vocals of Yana Veva, who had previously played mainly guitar and clay whistle. Among the musical instruments used by the band on stage at that time were bongs, flute and jew's harp, as well as analog synthesizers and noise generators. Flashing lights and costume shows provided a special atmosphere to these experimental acts at the junction of underground and pop music.
Fedor Svolotch - programming, guitar, vocals
Yana Veva - vocals, guitar, whistle
Kusas - keyboards, flute, bongs
NeKolia - drum module
Maks Kostyunin - bass, vocals (track 9)

YAT-KHA. WE WILL NEVER DIE - Lollipoppe Shoppe (Germany), 2021
The eighth studio album of the Tuvan band Yat-Kha, which focuses on the voice of the charismatic leader of the group Albert Kuvezin, is accompanied by his long-time friend and colleague Sholban Mongush. The album was recorded in Southern Germany, after the 2019 European tour, in the studio of krautrock legend Hans Joachim Irmler (Faust). In the spring of 2020, several additional tracks were recorded in Abakan (Khakassia). In addition to the usual songs, the album contains compositions collected from sayings and spells of Tuvan shamans, whose traditions form a continuous pedigree up to the Neolithic period. >>
CISFINITUM. MONOCHROME - Zhelezobeton / Aquarellist / KultFront, 2019
The album is dedicated to Dmitry Vasilyev, a musical educator, publisher, and ascetic. Initially, composer Evgeny Voronovsky conceived "Monochrome" as a futuristic mass of "high resolution" - an alchemical fusion of angelic chorales and dub-techno pulsations. The news of Vasilyev's tragic death caught the author of the recording rendering the final mix, redefining the meaning and purpose of the work that lasted for a whole year. "Monochrome" became a funeral service for a close friend, a man whose role for independent electronic music in Russia cannot be overestimated. >>
ALLERSEELEN. DUNKELGRAUE LIEDER - Aorta / Indiestate Distribution (Austria / Russia), 2017
The new album Allerseelen is a radically revised version of the album "Sturmlieder", originally released in 1996. Now Gerhard Hallstatt offers a new look at this classic work. The CD contains all tracks from the 1996 album in shortened remastered versions and 7 additional tracks. Some of the new tracks were inspired by the American black/folk/post-metal band Agalloch, Gerhard first met them in 2010 - it happened during the eruption of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajokull. >>
NOTCHNOI PROSPEKT. POLYURYTHANE - Frozen Light, 2017
The first studio album of the legendary band since 1993! Notchnoi Prospekt was founded in 1985 by Alexei Borisov and Ivan Sokolovsky. The group worked in various genres ranging from dance synthpop to industrial music, becoming one of the most innovative projects of the Soviet musical underground. The style of the album "Polyurythane" balances between new wave, industrial and art rock. Alexei Borisov, Dmitry Kutergin, Olga Nosova and other musicians took part in the recording. Sound designer - Evgeny Voronovsky (Cisfinitum). >>
OLE LUKKOYE. DYATLY - Trail Records (US), 2015
In April 2015, the St. Petersburg band Ole Lukkoye released a new album "Dyatly", published by the American label Trail Records. The album was recorded for two years at different Russian studios. After the material was recorded, the musicians came up with the idea to leave everything as it is and, as far as possible, avoid revision. As a result, only some vocal parts and percussion were recorded before the final mixing. The tracklist of the album consists of five tracks, and the transitions between them are made so smoothly that it seems as if you are listening to one endless song. >>
MACHINEFABRIEK. DUBBELTJES - Zoharum (Poland), 2014
Machinefabriek's music combines elements of drone ambient, glitch, field recordings, minimalism and post-classical avant-garde. This territory is successfully exploited by artists such as Fennesz, Tim Hecker, Oren Ambarchi and Stars Of The Lid. Unlike industrial music, Machinefabriek's improvisations are always very friendly, warm, and conducive to a leisurely exploration of a strange, surreal world. The new album is a compilation of 12 rare tracks released on low-volume 7-inch, cassettes and CD-R in the period from 2008 to 2013. >>
COLLOQUIO. L'ENTRATA - L'USCITA - Eibon Records (Italy), 2013
Gianni Pedretti, a resident of Bologna, organized Colloquio in the early 90s with the intention of exploring musical territories where advanced electronics intersect with the Italian song tradition. The new album continues to expand the sound horizons. In it, melancholic Italian ballads performed by Pedretti are successfully combined with cold minimalistic post-digital arrangements. Several guest musicians took part in the recording of the album, performing the parts of saxophone, flute, double bass and drums. >>
