ATRAX MORGUE ‎– SICKNESS REPORT LP

Direct link to product: https://skuggsidan111.bigcartel.com/product/atrax-morgue-sickness-report-lp


Description from label:
Sickness Report was released in 1996 in CD format for Release Entertainment, a sub-label of Relapse Records for ambient, noise, and experimental works, active between 1992 and 2004. The tracks on the CD were recorded a year earlier, in August 1995 and precisely on the 7th, spontaneously in an hour, like a manic raptus. It is the coldest, most cynical and loudest album of all Atrax Morgue's discography. The graphics on the CD, faithfully replicated also in the vinyl version, were made by Marco Corbelli with images taken from the volume "Tecnica delle autopsie" by Giacomo Mottura and are the perfect introduction to the sonic aggression that is coming. And the titles leave no room for imagination. It starts with Eviscaration, a powerful and hallucinatory sound that hits you like a crazy lawnmower. Then the morbid spiral continues with the songs Massive Vulval Warts and Deformed that take you to the most hidden and cramped spaces created by the brilliant mind of the Italian composer, without any opportunity for compromise: pure and glacial synthetic throbbing post-industrial sound soaked in death. The A side of the record closes with Brain Penetration, aseptic and sharp as a razor blade, which bangs you straight in the stomach. The second side of the vinyl continues to drag your mind into the perverse ecosystem created by the author, until you get to exhaustion with Slow Agony Of A Dying Organism, where the sound of a distorted synth seems to sigh the last gasps: mind stir the suggestion of the powerful, death-diluted stuff that is put into your hands.

The Rita - Queen Sheets

Direct link to product: https://skuggsidan111.bigcartel.com/product/the-rita-queen-sheets-2-x-lp
Price: €30 + postage

Description from Sam and label description:
Some time ago a colleague emailed me and informed me that an artist made a short video of herself knitting to The Rita's 'Thousands of Dead Gods.'  I watched the short video and thought it was interesting, but then also noticed that the woman had a link included on her 'Instagram' account for her sculptural works.  I looked at her work and was instantly taken by the sheer immensity and power of her structures, all exemplary of long hours of labour and provocative patterns behind the materials.  The most notable structure for me was the piece 'Untitled Form (Barrier)' which was made up of timber, bricks, mortar and a semi-dynamic use of the material chiffon to hold bricks in a hanging fashion.  The semi-opaque, stretching quality behind the white chiffon with height of almost 8 feet instantly brought to mind the focus of my past recordings that delved into the world of nylon and stocking fetishism, eventually contemplating the semi-opaque salmon pink qualities behind the tights used by classical ballerinas and the expanded practice and tradition therein.  Looking at an imposing 8'4 x 8' structure like Megan Miller's 'Untitled Form (Barrier)' and it's materials made me think that any sound made by the structure's movement of bricks against each other piled in a virtual sling of moving chiffon would be perfect for textural, abrasive sound source.  After some discussion with Megan, it was decided that a new structure would be built for a collaboration with The Rita that embraced not themes of fetishism, but expanded utilitarian themes around the use of nylon; the stockings, tights and nylon that women wore to work, what our mother's wore for warmth, comfort, and most importantly the virtual make-up of the fabric, the inherent qualities it featured.  Her eventual new outdoor sculpture was entitled 'Queen Sheets' and also made use of brick and mortar, expanding over a flat area with semi-opaque chiffon stretching over the whole of the area, covering it.  'Untitled Form (Barrier)' was also erected again in the same outdoor area, and this time the labor intensive building process of both sculptures was recorded for eventual processing by The Rita".  Sam McKinlay

''An exquisite and entirely feminine material, much can be said of nylon. It moves like us and with us, stretches like us and with us, and, although extremely delicate and easily torn, the fiber is strong enough to make me wonder if it could support bricks. Pantyhose become our second skin, our birth-skin held in its softness. The sound of its softness is remarkable – the sound of second skin of birth – skin and the light sweet between.'' - In a letter to Sam from Megan on March 31 th , 2014 - (in response to the Rita's ''Ballet Feet Positions'')

Both records are impressive, inspired and near perfect examples of Mr. McKinlay brutal sonic talents. This is easily one of the highlights of this year noise releases and a high point in the The Rita discography. A must have item for HNW/Noise fans; but also a great entry point into the genre to see how one of the masters of the form performs.


Masonna - Like A Virgin LP


Direct link to product: https://skuggsidan111.bigcartel.com/product/masonna-like-a-virgin-lp
Description from label:
Deluxe vinyl LP version. Limited edition to 299 copies.

Cascades of electronic noise, a psychedelic touch and vocal belching mixed together constitute the ingredients of Mademoiselle Anne Sanglante Ou Notre Nymphomanie Auréolé, the double-barreled name for Masonna. Maso Yamazaki founded his project in 1987, with a charismatic and glamorous personality who become a cult figure in "Japanoise" scene. Masonna's abundant productions on his own legendary and astonishing label Coquette were presented in very limited edition, sometime totally confidential (one sole copy), and reflect his predilection for 60's psychedelic music revisited in its own very peculiar way. He transforms his voice into noise, feeding the microphone back through a process of extreme distortion. His shouts become clipped bursts of overloaded sound, doubled and extended by a delay that displace the sounds into stuttered blasts of static.
Like a vagina is one of Maso's first recordings and was released on cassette on his home label Coquette in 1988. The original cassette is graphically provocative and contains a long track on each side. Although quite immature as recordings, we are faced with a real discovery, what will become an exceptional blast of vigor and revelation from Japan! Masonna surpassed all extremes with a full frequency violence that was as fast as it was psychedelic. Explosive few seconds of visceral feedback, fast and beautiful and focuses an electrically overcharged universe then awesome screaming create a complete audio assault. A revelation and terrific listen from start to finish, not to mention a crucial addition to the canon of Japanese noise music and its shadowy history that radically challenges and expands the terms of movement's definitions.
An absolutely amazing accomplishment for which Urashima deserve a great deal of credit, offering long overdue attention to a never before available body of work composed by one of Japanese noise's most important figures. Masonna's Like A Vagina, release in only 299 copies on black virgin vinyl, is an absolute must for seasoned noise music fans and devotes of obscure side of Japan electronic music, as well as anyone just beginning to explore this incredible realm. Grab it while you can. It's not going to sit around for long!

analogue masters - distribution by Skuggsidan: https://www.skuggsidan.net
New sister label announcement dedicated to reissues: - analogue masters -


The agenda of analogue masters as a label is to make reissues at reasonable prices for their customers by a recruited colleague and me. analogue masters will work primarily on releases on CD and LP. Of course, analogue masters could do reissues on cassette, but the CD format is our priority now. Initially, Skuggsidan will distribute analogue masters products before the new platform is established in a couple of months.

To underline: we do not fear any format, whether chrome master cassettes, DAT tapes or reel-to-reel. It is also possible to send us finished .wav files if preferred by the artist who wishes to. The mission and agenda of analogue masters are working for higher aims and goals, like further distribution to a new audience and creating an archive for posterity.

Contact: analogue.masters@yahoo.com

Don't hesitate to contact us for suggestions and inquiries. We also have an analogue studio where we are based. We also have no problem travelling worldwide if this is preferred. At an initial stage, there is also the possibility of online meetings via services such as Zoom/Skype. The idea of the meetings is to talk about reissue design, mastering, and agreements regarding artist copies and royalty payments. analogue masters do not do this work for profit but to eventually build an archive for descendants in their spare time.

General information:
Skuggsidan is currently working on the following tasks:
- sending out orders. We have recently received many orders through our platform and Discogs lately, and only one person is working on this task. Thanks for your support, and I work as fast as possible. The more support we get, the more we can produce. It is worth mentioning that all our financial income goes to new releases or technical equipment that makes it possible to concretise them.
- uploading selected material from the vault to Bandcamp(not our current top priority). Skuggsidan will upload material most relevant for the moment; I also experience disturbances in the website's bandwidth.
- starting up a new side label. We are currently testing two different e-commerce systems before we decide to move forward. You can now order via https://www.skuggsidan.net and later via the new e-commerce system for analogue masters as a complement. If you have any platform requests, don't hesitate to get in touch.
- moving to new facilities. We are expected to be installed in our new facilities between 25 - January 30, 2023. After this date, everything will be even more established. Our current premises are 60 m2 and are filled with storage wares/equipment.
- trades are also not a top priority until we have fully settled into the new premises. We buy both for wholesale prices and make trades by goodwill if it suits our assortment. Unfortunately, we have high costs related to our operations, which can be challenging to understand if you do not have insight into the day-to-day operations. We also have many incoming items, and a significant update will be soon from items purchased from both trades/whole sales.

If you have any questions, send an email to: skuggsidan@protonmail.com, and we will get back to you during the day/in a couple of hours.

For questions regarding analogue masters, please contact: analogue.masters(a)yahoo.com.

It should be added that I also have another main occupation, so I'll respond as soon as I can.

There is also a possibility of emailing my staff at: skuggsidan777@gmail.com for questions/customer service.

Forgot to mention: we will on weekends and meet-by-appointment have a official record store when we are installed.

Thanks for your support,

All the best,
Skuggsidan.

Minor distro update:
Black Leather Jesus - Handkerchief Code (cassette) - an edition of 20 copies (1 copy only) - 12 € + postage.
Werewolf Jerusalem-All Soul's Day 12 € + postage.
Werewolf Jerusalem/Ruine-Shelter 12 € + postage.

The landlord would suddenly demolish our former premises for residential development, which is a significant problem in larger cities. However, we have acquired new premises, and everything will be even more established.
We also have many incoming items, and a significant update will be soon from items purchased from both trades/wholesales.

General information:




Finnish and swedish people:
Since I have received many emails regarding Haare, I can tell you that these are available from Finnish distributors. All copies are long gone, and some distributors need to update their stock list after Christmas. Visit Sarvilevyt,Lahti  in the physical shop, or go to the Freak Animals website: http://www.nhfastore.net/ . Also, Satahuatta has a few copies left: http://satatuhatta.limitedrun.com. I've put several copies aside as vault copies in case any package goes missing - which is relatively rare. Therefore, it encourages adding tracking numbers to counteract such occurrences. Should an item go missing in the mail, we will replace it with either a refund, the same product, or something else you are interested in from the store.  
   Millstone vinyl( https://millstonevinyl.se ) will also have a few copies appearing in their next update.
You can read the pinned thread at the essential forums to find the rest of the distributors around the globe.
   Wholesale and trades of the new products will start when we are fully installed in the new facility - which will be a record store on weekends and meet-by-appointment.


All the best,
Skuggsidan

Greetings,

We want to announce that our new service is now open to a public audience.

The website is not so informative initially, but more information will come up there. Among other things, a blog will soon be added, and this is also where we might launch a forum that will give you access to the forums of our inner circle with a unique code.We are not doing this for profit but to build an archive in our spare time.


In good faith,
the analogue masters

Work in progress: we will open up a branch office in Manhattan, which will be a record store specializing in noise/"industrial". This will also serve as the official distributor in the US of Skuggsidan & analogue masters (side label for reissues). For example, black metal and ordinary music will also be marketed to finance this. Some of our future releases will be sold exclusively in this store.

The Swedish store will soon be available for those who write a message via our upcoming Telegram channel. This store can be found somewhere in central Sweden, about an hour from the head capital. However, this is only open on weekends, and the most of our distribution will take place online. There is also an on-demand service when people need something on special occasions.

More information will come soon.
