Kernkrach: Les Invalides- Au Revoir 1978-1981

In late 1978 three young parisian students, crossed their way and passion regarding electronic music and analogue synthesizers. They formed a band, which popped up a few years ago named and now already known as LES INVALIDES. Because of health restrictions of one of the major members just only a few tracks has been recorded during their 3 year musical periode. After the death of Albert in 1981 the band dissolved and their musical content lost. The mini-LP “Au Revoir 1978-1981″ contains original versions and unreleased material, rescued and mastered from the original tapes.

KERNKRACH Records managed together in collaboration with Musique Dilettantique this project in memoriam of the members, which never reached their musical attention during their band-lifetime. Limited Edition of 300 records 180gr. (100 on white vinyl / 200 on black) packed in a strong grave cover….R.I.P.

Fabrika Records: Blablarism- Agnostodynis

Blablarism is Oksana Zmorovytch from Kiev.She creates a music elixir based on shoegazy ghosts and drone labyrinths. This is her first full LP and contains some older songs blended with new ethereal stories. The fact that she is from Kiev, affects her music, adding endless landscapes of grey, tradition blended with New Modern Ways and intriguing mythology. There is something mystical about Blablarism’s music. It sometimes appears as common as an old shoegaze record you have played one millions times on your teenage room, then suddenly turns to a cold wave anthem with incomprehensible almost pagan vocals and gloomy, fustian synths.

Blablarism can also be described as experimental electronica, although the synthesis is somehow wisely structured and moderated with caution. The stories on this album are all like a personal diary written, not with words but with noises. And this private pieces of her are accompanied with romantic visuals and associative aesthetics in order to guide you into her heart.

If you are searching for pureness and crystal clear sensitivity in an artist, then you will love this record. Dark electronica with reverberating guitars, gloomy synthetic sounds and blackened bass themes.

The LP will be released in 500 hand numbered, limited copies.

Fabrika Records: M!R!M- Heaven

M!R!M begun as a duet in 2011 and created a huge buzz around their name instantly. Today M!R!M is a 23 year old boy, named Lacopo Bertelli. His music was generously tagged as “post punk”, however the layers of it make any categorization, a difficult matter. Bertelli, created “Heaven” in his bedroom, trapped inside four walls of loneliness and fear of what the future may bring. Haunted by the Jesus and Mary Chains’ dirty guitar sounds, the New M!R!M keeps the powerful, dynamics of their older work intact, but upgrades it, adding the most essential ingredient in creating good music: The Passion. “Heaven” is literally Bertelli’s personal hell, and all his songs seem to feed on his subconscious, creating a doomed, vulgar, acid world with whispers that become screams and guitar effects blend with inner voices and synths.

You will be surprised many times, listening to “Heaven”. You might find traces of SUICIDE’s frenzy, WIRE’s straight forwardness and DNA’s nihilism.You might as well be surprised by the noir wave duet with Nathalie Bruno (from the promising band, PHOSPHOR), one of the highlights of the LP. M!R!M’s “Heaven” is definitely worth the wait of those who already new the band and a great introduction to all of those who search for a dirty, violently personal sound. The Cover is made by contemporary artist, Zigendemonic.

The LP will be released in 500,hand numbered, limited copies.
