Life In The Dark 's Latest

... is now available for order.

Life In The Dark is increasingly becoming an essential project to check in with for every small release that Zen conjures. Apparently, his new tape, Absolute Control, is a shift in direction.

A new beginning, a new sound. Unhappy, british industrial insomnia. It's cold outside. Very limited edition.

I can't wait to hear this.

Go grab while you can as every Life In The Dark release sells out very quickly; I am actually surprised there are some left at this point. Get it here.

Up now from Sunyata is a split tape that is not to be missed, the participants are hush hush, and it is going to be a doozy.

Cremation Lily Cassette Number 2

Cremation Lily (a project by Zen Zsigo of Life In The Dark, Livimorket, and Maths) now has their second cassette up for order in the Strange Rules store. If this is anywhere near as good as the power electronics and beautiful harsh sounds of the first Cremation Lily tape, then you will wish that you will have bought this when you had the chance... already less than 13 copies available to nab.

Strange Rules does it again.

Strange Rules

The folks across the pond over at Sunyata have started a sister label called Strange Rules and their first offering just went up for order.

Cremation Lily is a cassette release that will surely give you pause... this from the description of the record:

golden chain industrial electronics. flowered death. not happy. mastered by kris lapke. 19 copies

Support a great label. By the by, there is a Life In The Dark T-Shirt for sale there too as is the last few copies of the Livimorket & Sequences collaborative 2xCS.

Speaking of Sequences

Hot on the heels of their split with Isolated Existence pre-order on Music Ruins Lives and their appearance on the Life In The Dark 2xCD (also on MRL) with a Remix, Sequences is also about to drop a 2xCS collaboration / split with Livimorket on Sunyata. This is limited to 30 copies and the pre-order is still live.

Here is more on the release from Sunyata:

HOUR long collaborative track, split over 4 sides. Utter blackness, no hope, no future, only slowly rising, ever depressing drone. Livimørket - guitar, looping. Sequences - drones, noise.

2 labelled cassettes, 12 page mini "zine" style booklet containing distorted imagery and words + a hand-written scrap ripped from personal diary entries, each one unique. Housed within a rough, handmade custom paper sleeve with pasted on artwork, numbered on the back.

Do not wait as these probably will not last much longer.

Sunyata Recordings

Sunyata Recordings has put their merchandise on sale in the hopes of raising money for their next batch of releases this year. Help them out. They have a package deal on two tapes, the self-titled Aesahaettr and Urarctica Begins from Ensorcelor. Both are great releases and it will help bring more tapes and what not from this great label.
