Ihana

The Gothenburg, Sweden based duo Ihana started out as a casual meeting in the hallway between our previous bands' two rehearsal rooms and suddenly we played together once a week. Eventually it appeared to be (in or own ears) good enough to release our debut EP "Hitom Himlen" (On this side of heaven) earlier this month. Our main influences are (northern) Swedish wintertime, red wine, loneliness and abandoned buildings. We play guitars, synthesizers, detuned piano and effect pedals. Physical handmade releases featuring bonus tracks will be available after the holidays.

Bristophe

Bristophe is an improvising duo that consists of Brice Catherin (from France, based in Geneva) and Christophe Schweizer (from Switzerland, based in Germany). They play instruments like: cello, trombone, a bit of electronics, tuba, a touch of clarinet, plus e.g. recorder and other flutes, double bass, alpine horn, voice, bird calls, a few toys, etc. Occasionally the two meet in one place, and that’s when sound happens. Le Fils De La Prophétesse is a two disc set that clocks in at over two hours. The first disc contains almost sixty miniature improvisations the create a whole. The second disc is more long-form, but the two relate as one.

Ø+yn & Uton

Ø+yn (Argentina) and Uton (Finland) present us with a collusion of two hemispheres, breaking down the world as we know it and rearranging it via the new mental order. Two musical magicians lead you into an arena sometimes dense and dark, and at other times ecstatic and uplifting, truly a mind meld of alchemical proportions.

Medieval Teeth

Michael Gordon, better known as Medieval Teeth, from Scotland loves broken stuff. Fuzzed out destroyed guitars, gently warping cassette tapes, damaged tin pan drums, radioactive ambience, out of time loops and out of tune keys all falling into a rusted lo-fi slop bucket. But rather than just bluntly noising it up, he masters the skills to craft a a variety of fascinating worlds - sometimes point sharp harsh, sometimes drunkenly blurred, other times eerie dark. And that's exactly how we like it at Vatican Analog; proudly presenting his first release on our label: All New Tapeworm Diet.

Hexeneiche

A brand new project by Steffan de Turck aka Staplerfahrer: he simply joined forces with his wife Leilani Trowell to create the space out-electro-acoustic drone duo Hexeneiche.
During the Easter weekend of 2013 they were on tour in Germany with Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson (member of Icelandic bad boys Stilluppsteypa). The magic happened in Oberdeck in Hannover, turning out to become fine material to shape their debut Angsthase.

A Vibrant Struggle

A Vibrant Struggle is a collaboration between Norwegians Sindre Bjerga and Jan M. Iversen (aka Bjerga/Iversen) and Dutchman Steffan de Turck (aka staplerfahrer). At the end of September 2007, they spent a long weekend in a wooden cabin up high in the Norwegian mountains, to fill up a pile of tapes with some blissful drones, crackling/clanging electro-acoustics, wood thumping and the occasional guitar picking.

Wouter Jaspers

Wouter Jaspers returns with a piece of work as we know him. Gently he shapes slow and calm ambiances where subtle feedbacks and a love for minimal acoustic string instruments and flutes serve to color his universe. Analog synthesizers are always there, but remain calm at all times. There in his own universe he seems to force us to look back on earth's dense urban spaces and empty lands. Identity Formula EP is a dusky, cinematic piece of work that is meant as a stepping stone for his upcoming full length album.

Hidden Rulers

Hidden Rulers are back with a complete album worth of eroded and dark techno. After a small digi release and tape on NX, this is a bigger showcase of their peculiar techno style. This is techno that sounds like the batteries have eroded on it. Like the machines had a skin rash. Like the sequencer had a sick day. Distorted and recorded on old fashioned tape, these are weirded out percussive slabs of lo-fi techno noise that don’t go for the maximum in distortion, but for the maximum in atmosphere. Minimal in melody and minimal in meaning, this is music thats honest. It only does what it’s meant for. No breaks, no big chorus, no deep touching melodies. Just dark and bleak machine sounds for like minded souls...

F – M CDOT G

F – M CDOT G drops 3 tracks of undiluted dark ambient on you. Recorded live at the kitchen table by the two unnamed members of this project, with minimal means and straight to good old cassette tape fort hat extra hum of ferro chrome. The three tracks, named after slight variations in Holland’s gravity field, feature machinery, contact mics, weird phone apps and field recordings and are meant to lull you in a state of mental relaxation. The tracks evoke a dark sci fi imagery of lost planets, eroded space equipment and strange streches of travel where absolutely nothing happens and all sense of time is lost.

Staplerfahrer

Staplerfahrer says goodbye to his old workspace Perron 58. Before the old publishing plant was gonna be demolished, Staplerfahrer explored various corners, machine rooms and storages in the building. We hear fire extinguishers, chairs, marbles, fluorescent tubes, staircases, office supplies, ventilation units and much more. As on his many previous records Staplerfahrer once again proves that he can bring such variety of objects together in sometimes playful sometimes hypnotizing sometimes estranging collages of sound.

Parae

Crystal Venom is our 5th album release since 2008. It is our first album with M, who joined the band in late 2011. The album is rawer sonically, as while we pushed ourselves musically, we didn't want to over-polish the songs with too much production. We kept it natural, and even recorded a couple songs live in single takes. There's definitely a pop feel to some of the tracks (Cry Wolf, Playing with Fire), but we're moving more towards the weirdness and experimental (Going Galt, I Genderfuck). Thematically, the songs cover such topics as: super lame ex-boyfriends, pre-teen abortion, inverted objectivism, the corruption of the music industry, drug addiction, gender-queer identity, and something about a Black Thumb.

Gilz is a hyper-contextual cybernetic video organism by Laskfar Vortok, featuring the music of Berlin-based sound manipulator Genus Inkasso and the visceral punk outfit otherwise known as Lobster Zorn. This short film traces a bizarre path through known/unknown disturbances, weaving a meta-narrative using Vortok's original footage and the sampled-imagery of an increasingly fracturing internet landscape.
Gilz is part of an ongoing series of experimental video shorts produced by Teaching Machine.
