"Avulsion" is the 7th studio album by Manufactura. With this new body of work, producer Karloz.M states "the music on this album is intended for prayer, meditation, drug consumption, magick, remote viewing, deep relaxation, astral projection, lucid dreaming, healing and/or other states of consciousness and it is dedicated to the memory of COIL
." Avulsion distinguishes it self from all other Manufactura albums in that the music strictly focuses on intricate and dynamic dark ambient soundscapes and atmospheric arrangements laced with elements of power electronics. It all lies between moments of unending darkness, glimpses of distant torture and vast uneasy calmness.
The album features artwork by Alexander Froebel and it also includes 4 collaborative tracks between Travis Morgan (Rec|use / Black Meat), Shaun Frandsen (Sudden Death Over Time / Glis), Justin Cameron (Lexincript), Jeff Swearemgin (Sleep Clinic) and Karloz.M. Through his latest opus, once again Manufactura surprises and astonishes with yet another release that will surely stir his many fans and critics alike.

Three years after "La Bionda" Saal5 delivers a unique blend of disturbing sounds, strange rhythms, epic tunes and some dadaistic lyrics with "Glaube Liebe Hoffnung".
Saal5 takes us on an eight track long journey through the depth of his universe, letting us take a closer look on what he believes in.
"Glaube Liebe Hoffnung" varies from Saal5 typical harsh noise tracks to soundtrackish songs and shows us a new side of Saal5 either.
Faith, Love and Hope in the true essence and with all existing shades.
At the end of the journey you will feel refreshed or you may start your own journey to find out what you believe in.

Full of energy, armed with a memorable voice, an adept hand for catchy tunes, minimalist beats and powerful electronics and showing anyone who dares to stand in her way the finger, ex-Ashbury-Heights vocalist Yaz sets out to conquer the world.
With her partners in crime Elle and Johan, she brews up a cocktail of girl power, Pop, Disco, New Wave, Punk and Electroclash that storms head-first through walls while also allowing for some more fragile sides. "Chimaera At Heat" is wild, addictive and irresistible – a perfect balance of Indie and Pop that doesn’t give anything on the conventional. Or to quote Yaz’ own words: "I Just Wanna Be Me!"
Erik Frankel and Johan Hellqvist, better known as Auto-Auto have unleashed their creative machinery again. Their third album, „Dancing Through Dark Times", combines catchy Synth Pop with Club-Sounds, Electroclash, Disco, New Wave and Indie in a most entertaining way.
The Swedes go about their poaching trip through the electronic jungle in a highly groovy way, with their tongues planted firmly in their cheeks and are not afraid of borrowing from unconventional sources (Breakdance-influences and more...)
The result is as they say themselves "Fresh, wild, sometimes strange but always catchy as hell and, to be frank with you: it is quite plainly the hottest shit on this side of the galaxy. We will just leave the boring parts to the others!"
Two years after 'grotesque consumer', r. klimaczewski a.k.a. exocet starts his artistic vision exactly where he left off with 'consequence'. a high quality detailed mesh of harsh sonic strikes, intricate rhythmic patterns, massive synth layers and cinematic samples which reflect his own perspective on idm, ambient and industrial music.
Exocet's work defines itself by emphasising the juxtaposition between huge atmospherics and a blasting force of noise and beats.
As displayed throughout the album where assertive and imaginative ambient pads float along-side hammering rhythmic patterns, inducing an almost trance-like effect. tribal elements sometimes beat their way through the mix and add yet another perspective on the already heady mix of different sonic characteristics, and perfectly positioned samples just manage to emphasise the film score feel and quality of the tracks.
Both a strongly abrasive and microscopically detailed world of sound, 'consequence' brings out a unique blend of influences that takes its own path, changing direction at will, capturing the listeners interest with an iron grip...
