[mt143cs] Nu Sire Human Shield c-32 Nu Sire is Jason James, who is active between the various underground communities of noise, techno, hardcore and metal in Los Angeles. Human Shield arrives after several years of upstaging everyone in town with noteworthy performances of depth and exactitude. This is continued in recorded form through judicious layering and temperate structures across both sides. Beginning with 'Fever Dreams,' filtered electro-acoustics establish subconscious unease as they and coil and unfurl with the restrained drones and pitches, building to a full stop. For the title track, a similarly minimal introduction promptly advances to a more frenetic atmosphere with immediate and direct signals that are enveloped into a vital storm of dynamic harsh electrostatics. mt143cs-a.mp3Fever Dreams mt143cs-b.mp3Human Shield |

[mt142cs] Vasculae Spectrum Art c-44 Long-delayed 'split fracture' album offering mirror images of past, present and future Vasculae. On the A-side, recent sessions from 2020 and 2021 -- the same period as the 'Broken Lust' album, continuing that inward struggle of darkened clang, enveloping tonal loop stasis and (un)restrained fragments of multi-tracked grit; noise-as-all-source. For the B-side, a glimpse of the project's inception with a side-long harsh piece recorded in 2012 during the first five-hour recording session and painstakingly edited apart/together over the course of nine years. mt142cs-a.mp3Riven mt142cs-b.mp3Spectrum Art |

[mt141cs] Dominic Coppola Prisms In Dalliance c-30 Interplanetary drift and current which properly unfurls over repeated listens. Crystalline intonations unfold and cascade into a heavy mass of expansive geometrics -- Intercede for Us. With the more subdued B-side, tone chords slowly emerge from swirling petroglyphs of dark resonance; truly 'At the Mercy of an Aphrodisiac' indeed. Mastered by James Plotkin. mt141cs-a.mp3Intercede For Us mt141cs-b.mp3At the Mercy Of An Aprodisiac |

[mt140cs] Tinnitustimulus Scrinj Maas c-40 Live hard analog sessions recorded in 2021. A headcleaner of primal room sound; gritty jackhammer fuzz saturating waves of ring mod, undercurrents of filter sweep and bell-tones of metallic clang -- all unfolding with organic evolution. A perfect union of Japanese and American aesthetics. mt140cs-a.mp3Pistel mt140cs-b.mp3Scread |

[mt139cd] Vasculae Broken Lust CD The distant clang and scrape of metals, slow burning atmospherics, and subdued electronics both tonal and textured; less blast and more resignation this time around. Mostly recorded and composed in early 2020 and slowly picked at during the first cycle of the end times. The soundtrack to the death rattles of this life cycle, foreshadowing a slow-motion chemical apocalypse; Let it burn, let it crumble, just let me get some hedonism out of the way before it's too late. Three tracks designed as variations on a theme utilizing similar compositional arcs and narratives, with the extra fourth track being a "performance mix" -- utilizing the same sources -- created for Tabitha Piseno's 'Noise & Politics' on Montez Press Radio in March 2020, as well as the arc of two live performances in Los Angeles just as the world shut down. Edition of 300 copies in digipack. mt139cd-1.mp3Fragmentary I: Broken mt139cd-2.mp3Fragmentary II: Lust |

[mt136cs] History Of Leather Courte Oreilles To 33rd c-20 Brute rust belt concréte compositions of full spectrum, delicate yet hard-edged crumbling narratives from Chicago's south side. mt136cs-a.mp3Northwoods mt136cs-b.mp3Rivers Edge Plaza |
| [mt134cd] Pedestrian Deposit Nostalgia: 2000-06 3xCD Finally complete after 13 years of attempt. 44 tracks across 3 full discs, compiling all the essential non-album cuts from phase one PD -- including 7 previously unreleased and never before heard -- totaling over 3 hours of pioneering visceral, dramatic, fast-paced and constantly engaging brute-concréte electronics driven by urban dread, isolation, culture shock, social detachment and coming-of-age desires. Composed with the most primitive of means from the outside looking in. Guest appearances by Viodre, Sewer Election and Circuit Wound. All tracks have been remastered from their original digital files in 2020; throw away your mp3 rips and submit to a dense cerebral world of dimly lit street lights and exposed collarbones. mt134cd-1.mp3Black Ponytail mt134cd-2.mp3Absent mt134cd-3.mp3Never Let You Go |

[mt130cs] Lapse Nothing Feels Right c-40 Blown out and massed patterns of red-line scrape and abrasion; cyclical and blaring, a thunderstorm of gutter-nihilism emanates from the streets and sewers of NYC. 40 continuous minutes of rugged and ripping sound that never relents. Sensation of Living b/w Get Fucked up and Die. 2020's definitive spirit. mt130cs-a.mp3Sensation of Living mt130cs-b.mp3Get Fucked Up and Die |

[mt129cs] Grant Evans Albatross c-30 Americana-concrète. Tape-pitched elements -- organic, synthetic and mechanical -- weave in and out, blurring reality with dread and unease. Buzzing, scraping, swelling; dying voices in the cirque of tape-delay. Through the projects Nova Scotian Arms, Quiet Evenings, Ornamental Hairpin and labels such as Hooker Vision, VAALD and Adversary Electronics, Evans should need no introduction; he, along with partner and collaborator Rachel Evans have been a consistent, prolific force in the South for over a decade. mt129cs-a.mp3Severed Thread mt129cs-b.mp3India Ink Mirror |

[mt124cs] Fleeting Breath Unfiction c-20 A return to MT for Dillon Tulk, formerly known as Ferveur Noire. Concrete assemblages of modular and taped sources crafted over a four year period; varying from urgent and frenetic to calm, still and anxious, yet never desperate or cluttered. A fine work of controlled sound composition. mt124cs-a.mp3Lavender Doe mt124cs-b.mp3Tongue Vortex |

[mt122cd] Pedestrian Deposit Dyers' Hands CD The ninth PD full-length album. In a reversal of tradition, the material was initially developed over the course of several live performances throughout Europe and the U.S. before entering the studio. Composed specifically for the CD format and recorded in stunning clarity, the result is a thrilling and dynamic listen; not only encompassing several genres of experimental music across five tracks, but also every phase of the group's history -- from active cut-up noise, to elements of neo-classical minimalism, to dark ambient soundscapes and everything in between, avoiding the sometimes temporary nature of such an approach. mt122cd-1.mp3Auger mt122cd-2.mp3What Can't Be Taken |
 |
[mt121cs] Vasculae New Orthodoxy c-34 The first completed material in over a year following a long battle with various creative blocks introduces a dark ambient element to the ongoing focus of placing harsh noise in different contextual environments. Voice recordings are filtered beyond recognition in the hope that their original intent transfers to the listener, while the overall compositional approach harkens back to the early years of PD's extreme dynamic contrast. mt121cs-a.mp3Panic and Abatement mt121cs-b.mp3Obsidere |
 |
[mt114cs] Shredded Nerve Bleeding From The Head c-32 Kicking it right off with a forceful synth overtone and never relenting. Five tracks of uniquely varied elements placed in a forward thinking context: industrial synth dread, concrete audio voyeurism, and naturally ocurring harsh noise. Compelling narrative work from a young artist at the height of his powers. Edition of 100 copies, with full color artwork by JB. mt114cs-a.mp3Ensnared Within Itself mt114cs-b.mp3Spontaneoue Pneumothorax

[mt100lp/cs] Pedestrian Deposit The Architector LP / c-40 The culmination of five years of obsessive work — fits and starts of ongoing perfectionism that spawned two solo projects and two additional records. Beginning with crude and unfamiliar source materials, each sound is examined from every possible angle, then taken apart and reconstructed along with the compositional process. From 2010 forward, each phase is represented; the past three U.S. tours have given clues, and these recordings offer more of the puzzle, but you will never get everything at once. To be experienced as foreground with no distractions. mt100lp-a.mp3A Cold Harvest mt100lp-b.mp3Shifted Snake |

[mt93cs] Nephila Subcutaneous Memory c-20 Long awaited debut solo recordings from Shannon A. Kennedy (Pedestrian Deposit). Narrative compositions for zither, homemade string instruments and other surprises that evoke the spirits of surrealism, dark experimental music, and traditional asian instruments. Two pieces from 2009 and 2012; recommended listening under low light, a full moon, or in the woods. Special art edition forthcoming from Shannon directly. mt93cs-a.mp3A Subtle Shift in the Smallest Hours mt93cs-b.mp3Bent With the Wind |

[mt92cd] Rale I Sit By The Window And Watch Walls And Ceiling CD Perhaps William Hutson's best achievement yet, an impeccable follow up to his excellent 'Some Kissed Charms …' LP for the Isounderscore label last year. Long form, expert-level sound collage, composed with the format in mind from improvisations recorded between 2007 - 2011 as a continuous piece in seven parts. Weaving together the aesthetics of minimalism, academia, and subterranean noise study with electro-acoustics and elements of dark soundtrack style synth work, the end result is rich and modern musique concrete with a heavy literary influence overhead. Essential. mt92cd-3.mp3Swimming Beside the Plane mt92cd-7.mp3When It Becomes the World |

[mt91cd] Vasculae Cultural Primitivism CD Full circle. A new project from Jonathan Borges (Pedestrian Deposit, Everyday Loneliness, Emaciator, etc). After several years of operating in more subtle areas of experimental music, Vasculae is a return to form; sharp noise composition with emphasis on layering, texture, purity, and 'natural dynamics,' as opposed to the rapid-fire cut-ups of the past. Elements of wall noise, crackle, and 90's style raw blast are fused in these three tracks pulled from two years of intermittent 5-7 hour recording sessions. No melodic ambient interludes, no tape loops, no instruments -- only the sources of pure noise textures. mt91cd-1.mp3Retrograde mt91cd3.mp3The Dying of the Light |
 |
[mt68cd] Pedestrian Deposit Austere CD Five years in the making, and the first duo recordings -- a very, very calculated and controlled effort. Moving past the harsh noise cutups but not eschewing them entirely; rather, moving forward to areas of sound collage, music-concrete, field recording and electroacoustic. To be heard as one long piece. The progression continues. mt68cd-1.mp3Requite mt68cd-2.mp3You Didn't Break Me |
