Annihilationist shows Prurients instrumental ambient side; though its littered with noises and frightening ruptures. The only audible trace of voice on Annihilationist is the word Japan. Abstract voices and gasps of air bubble to the top of the dark water, as the hardest elements of industry like perverse atonal bass tones swinging back n forth like a pendulum in the underworld. Recorded in the hospital productions basement studio in lower Manhattan during a personal end of days, alongside long time collaborator Alberich at the abacus of additional synthesizer. Another sinking ship? Even though the Pacific ocean is the larger body, the Atlantic contains the darker waters. The corrupted and corroding dials and metals grapple under the pressure to wield their reports bound to the rhythm of the marine vessels. But this isnt the ambient of the destroyer or aircraft carrier. This is the ambient of the submarine. A twisted quiet crammed claustrophobia-ridden approach to linear electronics. Minimal cacophony set to drones, crumbling barrages, surges of clatter and collapsing frescoes. Japan via Rome? Although no connection seems apparent between ancient Rome and imperial Japan, perhaps an echo of cataclysm richochets across the two great bodies of water and the echoes of destroyed empires are suspended in time. An imperative for the annihilationist worldview upon which hell is skipped and god simply annihilates the souls from existing within the afterlife itself, let alone hell. Conditional electronic ambient industrial. - Functional Organisation.
After nearly a decade of false starts, multiple game plans veering off the rails, and a handful of shattered hopes and/or dreams, the odyssey is finally complete—the new Fusetron site is here.
This is the first phase of a multipart rollout that will span the next few months: the currently browsable stock includes miscellaneous new releases from the past 8+ months (we have a lot of catching up to do), plus approximately a third of our backstock. Note that we’ve reduced/slashed prices on many titles and will continue to do so in order to make room for new stock. We’ll also be expanding / tweaking / improving / debugging the site itself (for example, we still have work to do on the automated international postage system, not to mention the inevitable inventory discrepancies that come with transferring an ancient and massive database to a new system).
Over the next few months, as we take inventory, clean house, and delve into our storage, we will be uploading thousands of additional items, gradually, on a near-daily basis. This will include the majority of the LPs, as well as many titles, in all formats, once thought long-gone. Many currently “sold out” items are likely to resurface.
Finally, once our general backstock is up (probably in the next two or three months) we’ll begin making our extensive stockpile of rarities available online for the first time: tons of random out-of-print titles, "deadstock," warehouse finds, secondhand collectibles, etc., accumulated over the past few decades.
Frequent/returning customers will be getting early access to these items. Details to follow on how this will work (a priority mailing list? a 'frequent flyer'-like program?), but it will not be based on dollars spent. We want to reward those who consistently support us, especially in the discogs marketplace era (to those who show up trying to poach five copies of a one-off rarity, and nothing else, ever… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ).
So—we suggest you take some time to dig through the site—even we’ve been surprised by what’s been turning up, and there’s much more to come.
