The first one is by Le Moderniste.
The south Belgian rhythmic noise artist releases his awesome new record: TOHUWABOHU.
16 tracks of torturing and brutal soundscapes, clever, haunting samples and vigorous elaborate beats are shaping the addictive 'TohuWaBohu' album.
Le Moderniste hits you hard like a 10 pound hammer, but this time with a different approach.
An increase of diversity in the compositions driven by a vaste array of sounds and atmospheres accompany the listener at the borders of ambient vibes and melodic structures.
But don't worry: Le Moderniste, driving his noisy steamroller is still dark and aggressive, more than ever!!!
The new album will be out on 10th september.
Also out will be the new one from Matter.
After almost 2 years since the "Land of Discordia" album, MATTER return with a brand new release, "Scanning Memory".
The album contains thirteen tracks with different styles of electronic music to discover ranging from the nineties up to the present and which took a certain influence to the actual sound MATTER is presenting with this cd.
Droning reverbs and delays which are significant for the entire sound production of MATTER and cold pulsing synth lines building the dark background for huge rhythmic walls. Deep, dirty and epic analogue soundscapes will blow your mind.
This new release in the full ‘Matter’ style shows the full range of their musical skills, while this time the focus is set on rhythmic structures.
Also out on 10 September.

The Sony warehouse that was destroyed by fire last night was also the main distribution warehouse for many Independant labels.
PIAS have issued the following statement: "There was a fire last night at the SonyDADC warehouse which services the physical distribution for PIAS in the UK and Ireland. PIAS is working closely with SonyDADC who are implementing their emergency plans. PIAS's UK offices in London and all other areas of our business are unaffected. More information will be communicated shortly to all our labels and partners"
PIAS is the main distributor for a large number of indie labels. 4AD, Warp and Beggars Banquet may also be affected.
This could prove catastrophic for some releases where promotion work has been done but the physical product has been destroyed and can no longer be delivered.
Our thoughts here at Peek-a-Boo are with all those who have been affected by this mindless violence.
Let’s make it short: the Swedish band Agent Side Grinder is certainly (one of) the most interesting 80’s influenced contemporary bands.
When most of the "post punk revival" bands more or less copy and paste the godfather’s songs, Agent Side Grinder reflects the roots and spirit of the early 80’s, with their own personal style, mixing Post Punk and No Wave with Krautrock, early Industrial, and electronic experimentations.
The "Industrial Beauty" compilation is the best way to (re)discover Agent Side Grinder's indispensable music and universe.
"Industrial Beauty" contains 2 CDs and 18 tracks.
CD1 is a selection of our best studio tracks, picked from our two official album releases.
Expect songs such as "Die to Live", "Life in advance", "Voice of your noise"...
CD2 is a live album, previously released as the cassette "Industrial Beauty".
This CD truly captures the live frenzy of Agent Side Grinder. To complete the package, CD2 also includes two tracks from the experimental album "The Transatlantic Tape Project".
Industrial beauty" is the perfect introduction to the unique sound of Agent Side Grinder!
