ZZP-007 /// EMOTION OF LOSS / ZMAJEVDAH - Split

Embrace the lo-fi tornado ! The Emotion Of Loss / Zmajevdah split tape is finally available. Fans of grind, drone, noise and doom from around this wretched globe will all be satisfied. This is the work of two great artists that push the boundaries of their sound and their respective genre, their tunes sweating with heart, lo-fi and DIY ethics.

It's really hard to label Zmajevdah's blackened shoegazy grind mixture, but If you're into heartwarming blastbeatitude somewhat similar to Wheels Within Wheels, Liturgy or Panopticon, you will absolutely love the two everlasting tracks encased in this split.

If you followed ZZP from the beginning, you are no stranger to Emotion Of Loss bleak, desperate and crushing sound. His "Demo 2007" was ZZP first release. With his new track Emotion Of Loss dwelves into more ethereal and experimental sounds, lurking toward ambiant and darker atmospheres. This is constricting rings in audio form, slowly suffocating you before the final blow !

We kept the packaging of this tape both simple and classy, with a long strip of thick paper, printed both sides and wrapped around the tape. You can get a glimpse at the artwork with the pictures above.

Limited to 24 copies, 4€ shipping out !

You can stream and download the full split just below.

ZZP-C01 /// ZALHIETZLI - Sainte Rita + Two Songs

Zalhietzli is my solo musical outlet. Experiments in noise, ambient, indus and various sound manipulations, using mainly effect pedals, samples and tape collages. This CDr compiles the two first Zalhietzli releases, "Sainte Rita" from 2011 and "Two Songs, 2012".
I decided to make this compilation as these were only available on tape so far. "Two Songs, 2012" isn't available yet, but should be somewhere in september.

What they said about Sainte Rita :
"Wonderfully claustrophobic dark ambient EP that delves into the genres of noise, drone and industrial." Polar Sunspots.
"Listening to this EP is really like watching a movie, having a nightmare etc., it’s an insanely immersive and dense, like a soundtrack to your subconscious’ inner workings." InB4track.

This release will be available at a "name your price" option. See the SHOP for more details. Listen to the tracks below.

Zmajevdah/Emotion Of Loss Split on Bandcamp

Just a quick note to let you know that the Zmajevdah / Emotion Of Loss split is finally available through Bandcamp, in streaming and free download form. Feel free to listen, download, review, rant, and share !

I am pretty busy at the moment with personal stuff, but the tapes should be available in september. Thanks to those who already preordered one !

SOON ! /// ZALHIETZLI - Two Songs, 2012 + ZLTZ Comp.

Woot ! Two new Zalhietzli songs will be released on C15 tape in september, as an EP titled "Two Songs, 2012" (duh). 

Zalhietzli is my personnal project. A blend of noise, ambient, indus, no wave, using effect pedals, loops and tape collages. Those two new tracks are drastically different from each other. "The Sickening Trophy" is an attempt at making a rock song without any rock instrument, and "Chemtrails Over Rainforest" is a semi-improvised jam of cold, blissful drone/ambient.

You can listen and download to the two tracks just below :

And for those who missed my first release "Sainte Rita", and prefer the CD format, I will release a CDr compilation of those two first Zalhietzli releases. This comp will serve as a promotional support, so it should be available at a small price, or come free with large orders.

Stay tuned, as more ZLTZ-related news will pop up soon !

ZZP-008 /// HAUTE-CIMES - Khmaer Krahom

Burning, unrelenting and unforgiving like a caged beast. With Khmaer Krahom, Haute-Cimes delivers three tracks of cinematographic harsh noise, with disturbing films samples entwining layers of radiating drones and pulsating noise shrills. Haute-Cimes sound is both repulsive and fascinating at the same time, the noise moving and breathing with its own pulse. In 23 minutes, this tape sucks you in and drags you through one hell of journey among desolated landscapes of paranoia and self-loathing.

Haute-Cimes' Khmaer Krahom is like staring at the everlasting collapse of the Sun, laying on your back on a building rooftop, above the smog and stench of the world consuming itself in a last mass orgy of blood, oil and wine.

This tape comes in a crystal case, with a huge 100% DIY insert, and a new artwork ! No computer used in the making of the artworks for this insert, only found pictures, hand-lettered stamp, boxcutter and a photocopier !

Each tape is numbered, and comes with a bandcamp download code, usable on the artist site.

Limited to 30 copies, 4€ shipping out !

You can listen and download the full record just below.

Summer update - Planned releases soon to come

Sup guys. Long time no see. No update for the past two months, as I was actually busy sending delicious Huata tapes all accross the globe. Get yours now, because those are going fast !

I can also say that the two current soon-to-come releases will, well, come soon. Those were the Zmajevdah / Emotion Of Loss split and Haute-Cimes - Khmaer Krahom, both on tape.

It's really hard to label Zmajevdah's blackened shoegazy grind mixture, but If you're into heartwarming blastbeatitude somewhat similar to Liturgy or Panopticon, you will absolutely love the two everlasting tracks encased in this split.

With his new track Emotion Of Loss dwelves into more ethereal and experimental sounds, lurking toward ambiant and darker atmospheres. This is constricting rings in audio form, slowly suffocating you before the final blow !

Here's a preview of the artwork, with the tracklist. Free download link should hopefully available with the tape release. Preorders are open : 4€ + shipping.

Update on the Emotion Of Loss & Zmajevdah split tape

Howdy people ! Just a short note to let you know that the Emotion of Loss / Zmajevdah split will no longer be released on CDr but rather on... (drum roll) tape !

Just like the Haute-Cimes - Khmaer Krahom tape, most of the artwork for the split will be a collage made using only old found pictures and a photocopier.

We also hope to offer a streaming and/or downloadable version of this release soon, so stay tuned !
