Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

"Daniel Sine is someone that is mentioned more often in Vital Weekly. He now resides in the US with a musical life that started in Japan. And "Degradation Bliss" is his third release on Love Earth Music, though it's his first vinyl. Concerning its production, the vinyl fits the optimal marks. Twenty minutes per side (a longer playing time will affect your sound), so 40 minutes total. The mastering is done very well by Grant Richardson, and the sound from beginning to end has the massiveness you're looking for in noise, especially when it's on vinyl.

Side A counts 5 tracks, so they're a bit shorter than the obvious longer ones on side B (only 3 tracks there). I must say it's hard to describe the style of music. It's harsh; it's noisy as hell, and there are constant changes everywhere. But for example, the use of vocal /samples in "Temple of Deformed Deities" and the rhythmic inclination through the use of percussive sounds creates maybe a bit of a ritual atmosphere while not being tribal or ritual at all. And it's a complete contrast to the 3m30 noise wall "Night Drive", which is still on the same side.

And the reverse side shows even more dynamics; "Exile in Ghetto Estatic" starts as an ultra-heavy noise drone and suddenly breaks down completely. The spaciousness that Daniel creates through this proves that extreme noise can be silence too. And to top it off, well, I won't use the word 'commercial', but if ever a noise track deserved to become a hit single, "Sister Went Dancing" comes as close as it gets. No, you can't dance to it, but we all know how the right track on the right volume triggers an inner rhythm that makes us move to things others can't hear. [...]"-BW, Vital Weekly

(Love Earth Music)
Two long-standing experimental sound projects join together as Legendary Bastard Noise, aka Eric Wood and +DOG+, aka Steve Davis, combine for two extended and well-paced works of dark sonics and electronics, the first piece "Misery Milestone" a haunting and desolate soundscape with disruptive punctuation; the 2nd "Beneficiary: Earth" adds agonizing voice to a work of global arpeggiation and destruction.

Jupitter-Larsen, GX
Ross Distracted [VINYL]
(Love Earth Music)
Each side of this LP from The Haters mastermind GX Jupitter-Larsen is a minimalistic noise work in the style of The Haters, built from loops and extraneous sounds, obscure and curious and each side ending with a giggle; you either need more of this kind of sonic opaqueness, or perhaps you too are a Hater.

A duo recorded in Tokyo in 2019 as a live performance, and through remote collaboration on the internet, between NY sound artist Victoria Shen, who focuses her work on extreme textures and gestural tones, using "chaotic sound" to oppose signal and information to elude traditionally embedded meaning, and Japanese noisician Toshiji Mikawa of Hijokaidan & Incapacitants fame.
Juice Machine
Broken And Dilapidated
(Love Earth Music)
An apt description for the layers of sonic decay and deteriorated sounds, loops and errata that underpin each of the five tracks on this elusively restrained noise album, Juice Machine, aka Roger H.
