LICHT 018: URFYR - Lichtfeier


URFYR - Lichtfeier (CD)

Factory-pressed CD in solid cardboard-folder. URFYR is a fairly new project, after some years of spreading demos, Licht und Stahl is proud to present the first proper release. The music by this duo from germany is entirely dedicated to germanic mythology and heathen spirituality, as in this case, the celebration of the winter solstice. Or, in their own words, we simply call it "runosophic ritual music". Expect an exciting blend of dark ambient, neo-classical arrangements and rather synth- and guitar-driven "pop-songs", not unlike some earlier Allerseelen...
Price: 10,- € + postage. Orders to: mario_loehr(at)t-online(dot)de or hag-all(at)gmx.net.

LICHT 013 - FIEBERFLUG - "Fleisch"

"Fleisch", the latest full-length work by Flutwacht´s ambient-industrial/drone-alter ego, this time released in cooperation with Contagious Orgasm´s famous SSSM-label, is a step further into vast auditive desolation. Expect minimal bass-heavy loop-pieces of a purity which hardly finds any equivalent these days. Recorded entirely in a rather "oldschool" analog way, these recordings couldn´t have found a better medium than the classic magnetic tape...
Professionally made C-80-tape. Limited edition of 60 numbered copies. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)

LICHT 012 - ENSOMHET 777 - "Lagoscuro"

Ensomhet 777 is another moniker of Riccardo Z., well knwown for his martial industrial project Zr.19.84. This first full-length release features one long piece in two chapters.
Expect raw, athmospheric post-black metal, speckled with experimental ambient- and neo-folkloristic tunes. "Lagoscuro" is about the south-tyrolian region around the lake of the
same name, which was an important battlefield in WW1.
Professionally made C-60-tape. Limited edition of 50 numbered copies. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)



LICHT 015 - FLESH CRAWLER - "Flesh Crawler"

Behide Flesh Crawler hide the well-known german noise-/industrial-artists DCS (Flutwacht, Fieberflug...) and Vincenzo Bossi (Brechen, Shadow Theater...).
On their first release they present an affecting mixture of deep dark ambient industrial, not unlike the latest Fieberflug works, and harsh, abrasive noise walls.
Stamped high-quality CDr in printed cardboard-sleeve. Limited edition of 30 numbered copies.
Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)

LICHT 008 - STRAHLENZENTRUM - "Zentralebene"



"Zentralebene" is the second album by Strahlenzentrum on which the rhythmic element of the cold and minimal compositions comes to the foreground. This pure electronic music, by means of
intense, monotonous beatbox-patterns and analogue synthesizer sounds, creates a rather
"oldschool" athmosphere of "electronic totentanz". There are two editions of the album, as high-end CDr in a white digipak and as a white C60-tape. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)

LICHT 010 - N.STRAHL.N & MYSTIFIED - "Maschinenfugen"


On their second collaborative album M. and N. present a pretty dark and isolationist
soundwork. Mystified creates calm athmosheric pieces from N.Strahl.N´s concrete sounds
and unfinished compositions, mostly using machinery sounds.
N.Strahl.N builds up a maelstrom of hypnotic mechanical soundwalls, refined from Mystified´s
electronic drones. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)

LICHT 009 - ANDREAS BRANDAL - "Shipwrecks"


From subtile organic drones to dramatic harshness. "Shipwrecks" is a very skillful blend of
post-industrial soundworks, perfectly illustrating the title of the album.
Limited edition of 50 numbered copies. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)

LICHT 007 - VACIO PERFECTO - "Geografia Interiore"


L.u.S. is proud to present the debut album by this exciting project from spain. Vacio Perfecto
uses contemporary computer techniques to create a sounds which is rather close to what you
might call "old school" industrial. Cold, isolationist noisescapes create a kind of inner image
which finds a very fitting description in the project´s name: the "complete emptiness". There are two editions of the album, as pro-manufactured CDr in a matt grey digipak and as a white C60-tape. Available for 8, - Euro + shipping. (Orders to: mario_loehr [at] t-online.de)
