Money
4 [2 CDs]
(Love Earth Music)
The mysterious Massachusetts project Money returns with a two-disc set of dark electronic glitch and oppressive texture, its four long tracks moving through distorted pulses, damaged surfaces, brutal eruptions and long stretches of seismic stasis, creating a difficult but focused sound world of innuendo, tension, disruption and slow-moving electronic pressure.

Premonitions
(Love Earth Music)
The Arizona sound-art and performance collective of Ashiki on Butoh and percussion, Steve RampaNt Guardino on power acoustics, synths, electronics and circuit bending, Vic VOID on electroacoustics, sound sculpture, synths and electronics, and Parker Weston on synths, samples and prepared guitar, creating a ritualized field of industrial drone, dark ambient texture, prepared-guitar abrasion and unstable electroacoustic noise.
Sheer Anxiety
If You Want Blood You've Got It
(Love Earth Music)
The Boston duo of Chris Strunk on snare drum and percussion and Andrea Pensado on electronics and voice unleash six live performances from 2018-2025, forging a raw and volatile language of harsh electronics, extreme vocal force, rattling percussion, snare-driven impact and free improvisational tension rooted in noise, physicality and underground experimental performance.
Unsub (Fetusk / Davis)
Xodiak
(Love Earth Music)
Experimental guitarist Fetusk and synthesist Steven Davis collaborate on a brooding electronic work where drones, processed guitars, beats, and field recordings merge into slowly evolving soundscapes, balancing industrial grit, ambient suspension, and textural density in a restrained, immersive exploration of atmosphere and transformation.
Meketa Power Electronics
Suffering
(Love Earth Music)
Steven Meketa, aka Meketa Power Electronics, in a solo work of sermons and electronics channels where Meketa's power electronics evoke a raw, faith-driven expression of endurance and confrontation, using grinding textures, spoken testimony, and sustained intensity to transform personal suffering into a stark and uncompromising sonic statement.
+Felladog+
II
(Love Earth Music)
The second collaboration between Steve Davis and Jim Fellahean Szudy, recorded in 2025 and unfolding across fifteen carefully shaped tracks that move fluidly between droning loops, harsh noise, hypnotic textures, and death-ambient atmospheres, with each piece functioning as a self-contained narrative while contributing to a cohesive, emotionally charged whole of sustained intensity.
Bjerga, Sindre
Decoy Sound
(Love Earth Music)
Two live performances from Norwegian sound artist Sindre Bjerga, capturing his signature blend of cassette-manipulated drones, lo-fi electronics, abstract vocal elements, and field-recorded textures in evolving soundscapes that evoke intimate, surreal, and psychedelically fractured environments.
Abrasion Addict / Animal Machine
Split
(Love Earth Music)
A raw and punishing split release from UK noise artists Abrasion Addict (Joe Fowler) and Animal Machine (Bohr Ernst), presenting studio and live recordings — including a 2017 Brighton performance — of unrelenting sonic extremity, where dense textures, abrasive dynamics, and fractured structures embody the visceral force of the harsh noise underground.
Money
Money 2 [2 CDs]
(Love Earth Music)
An enigmatic 2-CD release of glacial dark ambient and pulsing glitch from the elusive project Money, where each track-titled simply "money" — unfolds like a slow-moving tectonic shift, sculpting ominous, hollow textures with unsettling momentum; a minimalist package and a deeply immersive sonic enigma of brooding presence and uneasy stillness.
Woods, Peter J.
Sucking Stones
(Love Earth Music)
Exploring the intersection of harsh noise, spoken word, and conceptual composition, Peter J. Woods constructs a sonic meditation on Samuel Beckett's Molloy, weaving fragmented text, tense ambience, and intense sonic ruptures into a dynamic and gripping experience, where shifting textures and calculated silences evoke both philosophical depth and visceral tension.
Nil by Nose
Pictures On Trains Repainted
(Love Earth Music)
A collage of reinterpretations based on original tracks composed by Nil by Nose to accompany graffiti-covered train videos, this remix album features a diverse range of experimental artists reimagining those quick, raw compositions into a wildly creative and unpredictable audio journey through sound, decay, rhythm, and noise.
Unredeemable (Tracy Lisk / Andrea Pensado)
Preverbal
(Love Earth Music)
A dynamic, spontaneous duo collaboration by percussionist Tracy-Lisk and multi-disciplinary performer Andrea-Pensado, this LEM-347 release unfolds through drumming, cymbal washes, voice and live electronics into a fluid, improvisatory dialogue that balances rhythmic sensitivity and textural exploration within an intimate, acutely reactive sound world.
Thee Checkered Shoed Dude
A 'Lil Test Of That
(Love Earth Music)

Zilmrah
Hallucinatory X-Ray Visions
(Love Earth Music)
The debut full-length from Lawry Romani's noise/drone project Zilmrah blends manipulated samples, modular synths, and handcrafted electroacoustic instruments into intriguingly distorted yet spacious soundscapes, balancing hypnotic rhythms with dadaist absurdity and dense sonic experimentation in a captivating journey of cut-up electronics and immersive drones.
God Pussy
Rudimentar Desejo De Liberdade
(Love Earth Music)
Brazilian noise artist Jhones Silva, aka God Pussy, delivers a brutal, uncompromising conglomerate of harsh electronic textures, abstract noise, and aggressive sonic distortion, employing pedals, synths, radios & noise generators in an intense DIY exploration of social chaos, urban corruption, and humanity's unfulfilled desire for freedom through confrontational electroacoustic compositions.
Chefkirk
Giant Size
(Love Earth Music)
Eight distinctive works for electronics and sound from the alter ego of Roger H. Smith, using noise, percussive elements and unusual synthetics, layered around static and arpeggiated rhythms and punctuated with strange asides, the works run from 3:14 to 18:37 and were developed over a year and half; an excellent introduction to the sonic diversity Chefkirk revels in.
+DOG+ / Bastard Noise
Desecration Tales [VINYL]
(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.
Elka Bong
Elektro Locution [VINYL]
(Love Earth Music)
Elka Bong is the experimental sound art duo of Al Margolis and Walter Wright, here joined by guests Andrea Pensado on voice and electronics and Steve Davis on electronics, Margolis performing on synth, electric guitar & objects, and Weiss on Board Weevil and drum kit, in a mix of improvisation, extended technique, cacophony and indeterminacy.
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.
T. Mikawa x Victoria Shen
Personality Chrysler
(Love Earth Music)
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. Smith (Chefkirk) and Heather Chessman, use mangled field recordings and concrete elements of blurred looping structures and aberrant interjection, each unique work a fascinating curiosity.
+DOG+
To Share Forever With You
(Love Earth Music)
Love Earth Music label leader and sound artist Steve Davis' +DOG+ project is joined by a cast of noise and sound artists--Bobby Almon, Chuck Foster, Edward Giles, Jack Szymczak, LOB, Mackenzie Kourie, Ron Karlin--for a mix of rich sonic assaults, collage constructions and possibly some live captures, in an interesting and well-produced collection of diverse approaches to sound.
Extra
Spiral/Athletics
(Love Earth Music)
The third album from the collaboration of sound artists Howard Seltzer, who typically works with consumer grade tape players, and Brian Grainger, head of the Milieu Music mailorder label, in an extended work of textural cassette sound, field recordings, drone music and modular synthesis, a journey through rich and well-controlled sound.
