Maurizio Bianchi & Land Use - "Psychoneurose" CD 2005
Maurizio Bianchi (born 4 December 1955) is an Italian pioneer of industrial music, originating from Milan. Bianchi was inspired by the music of Tangerine Dream, Conrad Schnitzler and Throbbing Gristle. He wrote about music for Italian magazines before beginning to release his own cassettes under the name of Sacher-Pelz in August 1979. He released four cassettes as Sacher-Pelz before switching to his own name or simply "MB" in 1980. Bianchi corresponded with many of the key players in the industrial music and noise music scenes including Merzbow, GX Jupitter-Larsen, SPK, Nigel Ayers of Nocturnal Emissions and William Bennett of Whitehouse. After this exchange of letters and music, his first LPs were released in 1981. Symphony For A Genocide was released on Nigel Ayers' Sterile Records label after Bianchi had sent Ayers the money to press it. Each track on the LP was named after a Nazi extermination camp. The cover featured photographs of the Auschwitz Orchestra, a group of concentration camp prisoners who were forced to play classical music as people were herded into the gas chambers. The back cover included the text "The moral of this work: the past punishment is the inevitable blindness of the present".
Also in 1981 William Bennett offered Bianchi a record contract which Bianchi signed unchecked. It was based on a "joke contract" that Steven Stapleton of Nurse With Wound had sketched. The contract assumed all rights to Bianchi's work. After delivery of the tapes Bennett edited-in speeches by Nazi leaders, and instead of the relatively unsensational name MB, it was published under the alias Leibstandarte SS MB, named after the SS unit that worked as bodyguards to Adolf Hitler. By 1983 Bianchi had become a Jehovah's Witness. At the end of 1983 he announced his withdrawal from music, stating "The end is very near, and we have a very short time to recognise our mistakes and to redeem ourselves...I stopped doing music, and now my life is going towards its full awareness".
In 1998, encouraged by Alga Marghen label head Emanuele Carcano, who offered him a label of his own, Maurizio Bianchi resumed making music. The label was EEs'T Records, through which he released new editions of old MB albums and many new recordings. Bianchi then proceeded to work on over a hundred new projects both solo or in collaboration with other Italian and international artists including Atrax Morgue, Aube, Francisco López, Mauthausen Orchestra, Merzbow, Ryan Martin and Philip Julian/Cheapmachines. He has worked with labels Dais Records, the Carrboro, Hot Releases, and the Italian Menstrual Recordings to re-release some of his out-of-print material. On August 19, 2009, for unspecified personal reasons, Bianchi decided again to completely stop making music. This decision was soon after reversed.
Nazi UFO Commander - "Strange Monasteries" CDR 2006 & "Radiant Entropie" CD 2008
"Strange Monasteries is the initial communication to the fractured hive mind extant on this planet. This is Stage 1: Putrefaction. Only a small percentage of the population is capable of being hardlinked into the Greater Vision and Voice, because only they have had the Eruption of the Unconscious into the Sphere of Consciousness. Transmitting from Neuschwabenland South, Nazi UFO Commander is conjuring out of the chaos of space, radio waves and electronics a catalyst that will reunify the dissociated conscious by re-encoding imprints through sustained and attentive listening. In order to affect this reunification, the recording must be listened to in its entirety. Radiant Entropie is the second and final transmission from Nazi UFO Commander, a last warning from beyond to the hive mind extant on this planet. Finally revealed and clarified: the secrets of Neuschwabenland, Aldebaran and 'the Reclamation', set to a martial ambience. Feast on the crumbs, as the Commander has embarked upon a journey from which He will not return until the rest of us have long passed on."
"In ufology, conspiracy theory, science fiction, and comic book stories, claims or stories have circulated linking UFOs to Nazi Germany. The German UFO theories describe supposedly successful attempts to develop advanced aircraft or spacecraft prior to and during World War II, and further assert the post-war survival of these craft in secret underground bases in Antarctica, South America, or the United States, along with their creators. Accounts appear as early as 1950, likely inspired by historical German development of specialized engines. Elements of these claims have been widely incorporated into various works of fictional and purportedly non-fictional media, including video games and documentaries, often mixed with more substantiated information."
"According to a 1979 interview, serial killer Richard Chase ('The Vampire of Sacramento') believed that Nazi UFOs had extorted him into committing murder under threat to his own life. Chase further claimed that prison officials in league with the Nazis were poisoning his food, and he asked to be provided a radar gun with which he could apprehend his enemies."
Lille Roger - "For Life" Tape 1985
'Lille Roger' was the second solo project of Roger Karmanik (after 'Bomb The Daynursery', and overlapping his time in 'Enhänta Bödlar'). The style was raw, mid-fi, pure-industrial and rhythmic noise. The final release, 'Undead', was also the very first for his Cold Meat Industry label.
