Reviews
	Blaerg - Dysphoric Sonorities Blaerg effectively went beyond the breakcore paradigms of 'faster-harder-louder' and insane chaos, creating a truly captivating album - an interesting assortment of intelligent and methodical compositions with definite groove which, despite the title and the occasional harsher track, is actually quite laidback and bound to appeal to more than just the breakcore enthusiasts.

	Majdanek Waltz - Hamlet's Childhood A well organized and well recorded album, full of emotional music, beautiful instrumentation and composition, and it will definitely enthrall you and keep you listening. Song after song, "Hamlet's Childhood" evokes grief and still stands out as an amazing industrial folk album. Read more
	Insane Asylum - Caustic Factory Outlet The distorted, discordant initial impression of this EP by Insane Asylum evolves into something more coherent and cohesive as time passes, eventually growing into something pleasantly noisy, rather than the slapdash arrangement it seems to be. Read more
	V/A - Ressonus net vol.1 Where some ambient music is easily listenable, atmospheric stuff that can enhance or even alter a mood, this is, by and large, flat and lifeless, save for a few hounourable mentions. The intent is above reproach - individual, hand-crafted and unique musical endeavours - but the content fails to live up to it. Read more
