TRIBE TAPES: Argiope, Randy Greif, The Spyked, Dead Door Unit

Argiope "Death Ovary Traces" CD Digipack

Image

Reissue of Argiope’s debut cassette, released by Slaughter Productions in 1994 following a small run on the artist’s own Atom Institute label. Argiope project was born after Marco Corbelli proposed that Federico De Caroli / Deca record a release for Slaughter.

While Deca’s albums were still quite industrial, dark music, he felt that Marco deserved a much more extreme production than anything Deca recorded up to that point. The result was Argiope's debut release Death Ovary Traces, a work of depraved musique concrète. Prepared vinyl and tapes, field recordings, and raw vocal sounds were fed through a special digital distortion process, fragmenting religious hymns and classical pieces into obscure non-music.

CD is packaged in an A5-sized digipack paying homage to the original Slaughter Productions release.


Randy Greif "Lost Contact" CD Jewel Case

Image

Reissue of Randy Greif’s second cassette, released in 1984 on Swinging Axe Productions. Two side-long, extended pieces — industrial collage and ritual ambient with a strong classical influence. Hidden music. An infernal predecessor to Golden Joy Club.
