NEW RELEASES ON SPECTRE

S13 – 2×7-inch in box – limited 414 copies
Out of the hidden room of his batcave, dr blood returns with a conceptual work about the blood countess elizabeth bathory. This is something different from his other work, only related to it by its darkness, but never has it been this present as on this demonic vinyl duo : this is spectre 13. The new number of the beast.
CAMANECROSZCOPE : Echoes ov who lieth dead but ever dreameth
S14 – CD in oversized digipack with booklet
Vocal elements like chants and invocations drift on a bed of soundscapes ranging from the solemn brooding to the etherial yet haunting. This cd reveals a masterly example of sound research and sound manipulation in a coherent and convincing conceptual whole presented with a superbly elaborated artwork. The seal is cast aside, pass through the gate and enter the world because this is a spectre!
S15 – CD
Stupor’s black beast creates a separate universe which encapsules you into your own world of thought. A ritual that invites you to take a look inside yourself aided by repetitive tribal percussive elements, by invocations, by solemn and hymnic passages.
NOC8 – 7-inch – limited 399 copies
Geesten (ghosts) is an exorcism on vinyl by the belgian artist Empusae, who releases his ghosts by banging the electronic drums. Hypnotic constructions, deconstructions and reconstructions for the intelligent dancer.
NOC9 – picture 7-inch – limited 399 copies
Cyclops II has both the highly energetic side of This Morn’ Omina and their more restrained side. We get a climactic smasher in stitchface, a h(a)unting track for dark dance nights, and on the other side there’s mouthrot : a bleak and unreal yet dynamic and rhythmic counterpart.
NA04 – CD
Kraken is groping around from the discomforting depths of nautilus again with another voyage through the haunted abyss. The belgian masters of nautical ambient present their cinematic travel through unworldly, enchanting atmospheres. The chant of the kraken, on a cd in an a5 cardboard cover.
