There‘s not a lot of artists who had such an important influence on todays ambient music like the outstanding piano player and composer Harold Budd. Albums like his classical „Pavilion of Dreams“ or his cooperations with Brian Eno like „The Pearl“ are well known to many electronic and Ambient musicians and listeners of the last decades. Especially the two fellow musicians Martin Juhls (aka Marsen Jules) and Rafael Anton Irisarri (aka The Sight Below) were often talking about the influence that Budd‘s music had on them and how much respect and admiration they had for him and his work. Out of this came the idea of paying respect to Budd in some way, to give something back to him. „Lost in the Humming Air“ is the result of this thought in form of a musical tribute and it‘s a big honor to release this in the 50th year of Mr. Budd‘s career as a composer.
All artists who contributed in this release donated their tracks. The profit of this CD will go to a charity project chosen by Harold Budd.

A Split-Second re-released their first official tape demo 'Stained Impressions' on Minimal-Maximal
In combination with their growing popularity and 2012 Tour, A SPLIT-SECOND re-released their first ever release “ STAINED IMPRESSIONS ”(MM007LP), out on MINIMAL>< MAXIMAL.
This is vinyl only release in a limited edition of 520 hand-numbered copies, 180 gram vinyl, plus insert. The first 200 copies will be available on white vinyl!
The making of...
1984 was a pivotal year for A Split-Second. Originally a new wave high-school band playing covers and a few own compositions, the first line-up disbanded as composer, singer and bass player Marc Ickx went more electronic with a primitive sequencer and drum computer.
Without previous studio experience, he started recording “Stained Impressions”, a demo tape recorded in single takes with cassette-to-cassette overdubs.
In between recordings he met with Chrismar Chayell, an old classmate who had a small multi-track recording studio. Chayell had already recorded among others the full length Twilight Ritual album “The Ritual”, and offered to produce and record five of the songs at his studio. The first five songs on “Stained Impressions” were recorded there. Chayell also arranged and played a keybord part on “Teargas and Champagne”, marking the beginning of what was to come for A Split-Second.
The songs also mark a transition, songs like “Hunger” and “Neurobeat” were written by Ickx for the previous line-up, of which “Neurobeat” was the only song to make it to the debut album “Ballistic Statues”. From the other songs, parts of titles and lyrics were picked up for later material, and “Resignation” bacame the blueprint for “Rigor Mortis”. Most of the other songs are largely improvised in a search for the new direction Ickx’ songwriting was heading for.
Largely raw and primitive, “Stained Impressions” provides an interesting look into the genesis of one of the most influential alternative electronic bands of the 80’s, and the variety and experimentation that marked this era.

Ok we admit, it's more technoid than industrial but the free Viral Conspiracy Records label sometimes has a few darker things on offer. Take Somatic Responses, the Healy brothers from a small Welsh town that have been making idm/industrial and God knows what else for about 10 years now. Their last album on Hymen was pretty good and here is a free 4-track EP for you industroheadz to nibble on!
