The collaboration between Anton Lambert and Thanos Polymeneas Liontiris, captured on their album, tri-n-os, is astonishing. There is little I can say to describe the intricate, mesmerising, and haunted work that is this release. 

First released in 2012, as a digital release, then as a limited CD release, GOD O: Music For A Gallery Opening. It finds Charles Bobuck, aka Residents Co-founder and the primary composer, Hardy Fox, scoring the gallery experience of the exhibition of The Residents/Ralph Records. Here from Klanggalerie is an expanded double CD reissue of the release. With a sound here moving between blends of musical pomp and weedy vocalisations, world music beats and wailing guitars, ambience and beyond, making for a varied and entertaining ride 

Les Cents Jours Clairs is the next in the series of Etant Donnes CD reissues from the folks over at Klanggalerie. It was the French project's fifth release( well, half of it), appearing in the year 1984, taking nine tracks which move between pummelling/ manic electro/machine noise tracks, and slowly ‘n’ wavering grey tone ambience to billowing yet barren feedback dwells.

Swedish electronic project Sluta Leta started in the late 90s and has gone through a series of lineup changes, resulting in all of the founding members being replaced. The current lineup of producers Andi Pieper and Ramon Bauer, with vocalist Gerhard Potuznik, has been consistent since their debut full-length in 2003. After a long hiatus, they've returned in the 2020s. Their 2nd album this decade, Drift Decoder, is a collection of charmingly analogue, acid-inflected electro, funky breaks, and synth pop, a short forty-one-minute album of two-to-five-minute songs.

Here’s another in a long line of superlative Kleistwahr releases from Fourth Dimension Records, this one collects up two previous albums by the Gary Mundy vehicle; if memory serves Winter was part of the amazing looking - but expensive - tape boxset put out by Helen Scarsdale Agency some years back, whilst Music for Zeitgeist Fighters was released on Nashazphone, on vinyl, in 2017. The two CDs come in a card wallet, with the album artworks on display, and the usual neat presentation that Fourth Dimension delivers. The CDs present each album respectively, and add some additional tracks, bringing each CD to over 70 minutes of music.  

Over their fifty-plus-year career, The Residents- those infamous yet unknown avant-popsters have always created their own distinctive/ weird takes on others' material. Going from their noise up  ‘n’ churning take on the Rolling Stones' Satisfaction, though to their melted Dada take on 60’s pop that was The Third ‘n’ Reich and Roll album.
