MY CAT IS AN ALIEN - Leave Me In The Black No-Thing
imprec116 - CD - $11.99 
Leave Me In The Black No-Thing is the new full-lenght album
recorded April 10th, 2006, at MCIAA's Alien Zone,
located in a remote region of the Western Alps, Piemonte,
Italy. The work consists of two tracks entitled Part One
and Part Two for a total lenght of 56:15 minutes
After having been irradiated by the Cosmic Light Of A New Millenium,
you find yourself facing a black and white cover, where the only
view of the universe is foreshortened, and represents a lighted
shape showing branches of pinetrees under a white sky, within the
darkest black - an element which represents the esthetic detaching
and, at the same time, a further step in the duo's artistic process,
which determines their willingness to go beyond any goal already
achieved. For MCIAA to make art means to risk daring the
unknown, daring the listener himself to excel his own limits of
perception of the work of art in music, without losing anything
of their unique and unmistakable style.
If, as many of the international critics have been remarking, MCIAA's
works live on the boundary between Light and Darkness, it's also
true that Cosmic Light of the Third Millennium celebrated
the light of the outer spaces as well as Leave Me In The Black
No-Thing represents a jump into the No-Thing of the empty inner
spaces.
Recorded in their secret recording-space up on the Western Alps
of Piedmont, Italy, during the trespassing from
dusk to the beginning of the night, the work lives of the same dark
magic of the Wagnerian post-romantic ouvertures, suspended
between the deepest silence and the most deflagrating sonic attack.
Light/Darkness, noise/silence, permeated by Roberto Opalio's suffering
vocal tunes, which defines and underlines the edge of the work.
After the cacophonic and free implosion of the nucleus of the initials
30 minutes, 25 minutes of painful silence follow, sounding like
the last whisper before the final end: angels' chorus and ectoplasmatic
presences float on Maurizio Opalio's crystal-clear guitar
strings. It's the Cosmic Blues of the III Millennium which penetrates
into the soul, leaving indelible signs.

Like some kind of droned out Sun Ra, My
Cat Is An Alien landed and stayed only long enough to
drop off the masters and the artwork at Important Records
before vanishing into the cosmos, or Torino, once again.
This new full-length album was recorded April 2005 at MCIAA's
Alien Zone, located in a remote region of the Western
Alps, Piemonte, Italy. The work consists of three tracks entitled

Debut
solo album from Larsen's Fabrizio Modonese Polumbo.
"...surprisingly gentle inflections, combining low voices,
groung hugging mists of keyboards, genial electronic hucklebuck
and even acoustic guitar to create small vistas of delightful
otherness..."

Following
the success of Forbidden Planet Explored, Jack's soundtrack
for the legendary sci-fi film Forbidden Planet, Jack has brought
us a brand new Meat Beat style manifestation and a collection
of 10 years worth of his electro-acoustic musique concrete.
Loudness Clarifies/Music From Tapelab brings forth both sides
of Jack Dangers multi-dimensional audio personality into one
single commercial package neatly designed by Almighty. From
the distant, careful, experimentalism found in Music From
Tapelab to the dance floor oriented Loudness Clarifies we
experience Jack as a whole musical entity.

"'Out of Norway comes the most exciting
noise LP I've heard to date. These two women romp thru stimulating
noise compositions fresh and clean w/ a distinct Scandinavian
frost. But there's always an undercurrent of warm embrace,
sweet and masterful.' -- Thurston Moore. Already an incontestable
figure of the Scandinavian music scene, Maja Ratkje follows
the release of her stunning first solo album, Voice (Rune
Grammaphone), with Fe-Mail.
Together with fellow Spunk-ette Hild Sofie Tafjord, Ratkje
improvises with analogue electronic gear, samplers, voice,
harmonica, and miscellaneous acoustic instruments to shape
a more defined and delicate, if such a word can in any way
define the realm in which Fe-mail evolve, series of soundscapes."
