Thanks to the good people at Adrian Recordings, I can now link you to this month's new Dmitry Fyodorov single "Warcollapse!": m/warcollaps-320.mp3" target="_blank">https://www.adrianrecordings.com/warcollaps-320.mp3
Sounds like something a crustpunk band would do, doncha think? Anyhow, so says the label: "This track will take you to the dark techno side of town on an old school t-34 tank driven by Cleopatra Jones. This is the first track in a series of four on a special theme celebrating some great landmarks of time and the spirit of keeping it on the wrong side of train tracks."
As mentioned before, Adrian Recordings will be releasing a new single from Dmitry Fyodorov every month on the 29th.

MP3: 18000018018018401 and Hab - Who we are

m/mp3.php?t=718">When I said I was going to post mostly Finnish music this week, I said that fully knowing I would be posting a track to accompany m/articles.php?a=384">today's interview with Håkan Lidbo on the new "musik för främmande civilisationer"/"music for alien civilizations" compilation. "Who we are" by 18000018018018401 and Hab is easily the most Earth-friendly of the tracks in that it's got a steady danceable beat and discernible samples of human voices spelling out some of the more negative aspects of humanity. It is, as the title clearly states, who we are, is it not? As for the rest of the record, Håkan isn't kidding when he says that many of the artists composed for an audience who might have an entirely different idea of what music is, if they even have music at all. While that might not make for an "enjoyable" listen in ways we are usually accustomed, it is, at the very least, interesting. So yeah, please check out the piece below and be sure to m/articles.php?a=384">read the interview
