E.R.P: - Alsoran 12" (Frantic Flowers 2007)

One of the most beautiful releases of 2007 and seemingly hard to come by.
G. Hanson's work as Convextion had a lot of praise thrown to its face, but the stuff Hanson releases as E.R.P. has always been our favourite. Dreamy, almost ambient, electro-influenced, straight-forward techno. A good example of music that would normally stay way out of our radar, but, when done as magnificiently well as here, even we can't afford to miss it. So shouldn't you.

note: THIS LINK WAS TAKEN AWAY, since the 12" can be bought as mp3's. Sorry for the confusion.

Gimme 3, vol I

Every month (yeah right) we'll put a compilation of
three hard-to-miss tracks in one zip file.
To start thing off, we have unidentified Soviet pop
and the beautiful voice of Aura Urziceanu.

1. Soviet Union -era pop track. Can't read the text so...
2. Aura Urziceanu - Cintec Din Oas
3. Aura Urziceanu - Capriciul nr. 24 (Paganini)

When we were scanning those LP's, the quality changed a bit in
some pictures. We think it just adds to the magic.
These LP's will soon be here on their full form, though
these are the best songs from them.

Aura Urziceanu - Aura (Eletrecord)

Unknown Soviet-era pop LP

Yat-Kha : s/t

According to the wikipedia, this is the third and last yat-kha-album from the duo of Albert Kuvezin and Ivan Sokolovsky. After this Albert steered into the folk-rock-direction with Yenisei Punk.

Crazy mixture of IDM:ish synth stylings and kargyraa-style throat singing. Track 3 is particularly tasty complete with pitchshifted smurf vocals and house piano vamps. Enjoy! 320kbs mp3 /w cover scans.
