Mephitick Ooze
The Path of Congealment
(Love Earth Music)
The Montague, Massachusetts noise project Mephitick Ooze delivers a forty-four-minute barrage of distorted, tortured sound in a harsh and challenging long-form work that moves glacially through ripped textures, overloaded frequencies and brief pockets of relief, shaping its abrasive force into a slow, deliberate arc of sonic pressure.
Autophagia
Communicate
(Love Earth Music)
The solo noise project of Noah Jerge, also associated with the power-electronics project Mindcrawler, Autophagia turns communication into overload on this Love Earth Music release, using harsh electronics, damaged signal, feedback, density, and physical pressure to create a raw California underground statement where speech collapses into rupture and amplified confrontation.
Takeshita
The Lethal Lottery
(Love Earth Music)
Compact yet unpredictable electronic sound worlds that unfold through shifting textures, rhythmic abstraction, and dynamic synthesis, inviting listeners to embrace chance by playing the album on shuffle and discovering new interplay between evolving motifs, tactile synthesis, and subtle sonic gestures that balance thoughtful design with an open, exploratory spirit.
Orlov-Davydovsky, Georgy
Borderline Psychosonic Environments
(Love Earth Music)
Working alone with electronics, radios, field recordings, homemade instruments, and voice, Georgy Orlov-Davydovsky constructs immersive electro-acoustic pieces shaped by specific physical environments, layering noise, drone, and fragile gestures into meditative sound narratives that explore borderline psychosonic listening states through dense textures and unstable sonic detail.
Juice Machine
Yachats
(Love Earth Music)
Recorded across two seasons in coastal Oregon, Yachats showcases the late Heather Chessman and Roger Smith as Juice Machine, sculpting fragile, tape-based electro-acoustic collages that blend field recordings, loops, and discreet electronics into seven immersive vignettes — each a poetic meditation on place, memory, and sonic texture.
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.
Last Action
Alien Chrome

Belgian sound artist Carlo Steegen delivers a solo work of dense, textural abstraction under his Last Action moniker, blending elements of noise, industrial atmospheres, and electroacoustic experimentation into a raw and immersive studio performance recorded in the summer of 2024.
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.
subservientdominance
Publicdominance
(Love Earth Music)
Live recordings from four Northeast U.S. performances by subservientdominance, the solo project of Doug DeWalt, blending power electronics, harsh noise, and deep vocal-driven textures into a visceral exploration of sonic dominance, with each set presenting a uniquely aggressive and immersive approach to raw electroacoustic intensity.
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.
Midnight Only (RJ Myato / Jabe Ledoux)
Midnight Only
(Love Earth Music)
An album of dense electronics, drums and gongs from Vermont drummer and experimenter Jabe Ledoux, aka Jo Bled, and Pittsburgh noise artist RJ Myato, co-founder of NNN Coalition and curator of Enforced Existence label, in three works from assertive jumbles of sound, to buzzy drones with muted percussion and ending with an ocean of blurred and swooping harmonics.
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.
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.
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.
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.

III

Dysmorfic +DOG+
To The Usual Atomic Rhetoric Vol. 1
