ch-247, 100 copies - a swarm of locusts let loose inside a sawmill, bringing the sound of destruction and creation at the same time. things falling apart and somehow falling back together again. the first side shows a mode subdued approach, melancholy and choking. the flip offers up a shrieking, squealling and clattering mess shambling through anything in its path.

Justice Yeldham - Live in Beirut 7", $7
ch-139, 500 copies - it's safe to say that nothing like this was ever witnessed in the lebanease capital before, short of the civil war, which is how many audience members described the sound of the honourable justice's performances in the still turbulant city. justice played on a sheet of broken glass he found at the beirut - damascus taxi terminal, an infamous place where many muslims where tortured and killed by the phalangists. the cover depicts the sticker that was on the sheet of glass played on 020604 which was found in the semi ruined building. coreleased with dualplover.

Kapotte Muziek - Praag/Rotterdam CD, $7
ch-127, 1000 copies - two live performances on this disc, the sound of a microphone passing through antimatter - the haunting atmosphere of a slow drone, a glimpse of captured transmissions, the grinding crackle and crunch of a machine eating itself alive only to collapse in a sea of manipulated feedback ripe with wooden electronics low on batteries.. from '95 and '98, these pieces feature the line-up of roel meelkop, peter duimelinks & frans de waard.
