To celebrate
Asche's correspondent u.s. tour, ant-zen and industry 8 present 'Stonebrain' - five new and unreleased tracks by the german industrial mastermind plus amendatory remixes by
Theologian,
Hydrone,
Nin Kuji and
Iszoloscope. The listener can detect sound elements of prequel
Asche releases: distorted syncopation, well-placed insertion of cinematic samples and gloomy atmospheric complex tones. In addition, appended elements of the darker and more enigmatic side of
Asche should be emphasized.
Soundscapes ranging from classic power noise industrial up to the imminence of
Aphex Twin's early works fused with the rhythmic assaults asche is known for. The additional four remixes go with the first tracks so perfectly a blindfold tester would never recognize them as such. A stunning release, assured to stimulate mind and body. Arigato-style packaging including 2 buttons (
Asche/ant-zen) and 2 stickers (
Asche/ant-zen). The MCD is hand-numbered and limited to 500 copies.
