Food World are the harsh noise / freakout duo of Ryan Lewis (Mr. Stonecipher) and August Traeger (Somnaphon / Nipple Stools). Their side of the tape includes one track that is a high octane screeching nightmare and another track culled from a subdued live performance recorded on 4 July 2011 (US Independence Day) in Wilmington, NC.

Clang Quartet is the one-man Harsh Noise/Percussion/Performance Art show of Scotty Irving. He appears here with his patented harsh noise + percussion combo. Clang Quartet has a few releases on labels such as Hansen, RRRecords and Turgid Animal, but what he is most known for are his amazing live shows, combining harsh noise, frenetic drumming and religious performance art... definitely not to be missed.

This second digital release comes from Food World, a North Carolina / St. Louis based harsh noise / power electronics duo. Also, the next physical release will be a cassette split with Food World and Clang Quartet!!! I'm super excited for that release!

Release Info:
Food World is Ryan Lewis and August Traeger. On this release the duo veers away from their usual harsh noise / power electronics / freakout sound. These songs come from a session originally recorded for a Valentine's Day 2011 release, but the project was scrapped due to the somewhat sub-par recording quality. A couple of the songs were released on various compilations but the project as a whole has not seen the light of day. This release features a few of the songs from that session.

Open Call for DVD video compilation

Bicephalic Records is putting out an open call for video submissions for a DVD noise/music video compilation. I am interested in modern digital & abstract video art, databending, etc. Audio genre is open, though I'm primarily interested in glitch electronics, electro-acoustic experiments, drone, harsh noise, etc. I will choose the videos I think are the best to be on the DVD so send your best material. If there are enough submissions I may end up expanding this into two volumes.
Here are some examples of my own work:
