New Releases From Utech

The latest from Utech Records:

Artist: RST
Title: Tomorrow’s Void

New Zealand’s Andrew Moon has spent the past decade plus as RST, finding the one thing the electric guitar was truly meant to do – make a holy noise. Somewhere between the hum of the amplifier and the vibration of untouched strings lies electricity’s nervous system. Sound reduced to its cold essentials. Unsettled waves sluiced through luxuriant effects and delays. The gristle of the electrical grid harnessed and reconfigured as exquisite ostinato.

Artist: Final
Title: Dead Air

Justin K Broadrick (Godflesh, Ice, Painkiller, God, Jesu) is an iconoclast, a destroyer. Whether by scourge or more subtle measure he is unafraid to loose the blood of infidels. Final is the apotheosized nomad. Shifting, flowing, ascending. A life’s work. Dead Air takes hold and abducts the last of your breath with cruel ceremony. The most austere Final recording yet.

Artist: Sum of R
Title: Sum of R

Switzerland’s Sum of R is Reto Mäder (RM74) and Christoph Hess and Roger Ziegler (Herpes Ö Deluxe) constructing/deconstructing sound in ways that infest and cloud the interior of the mind. The implements: electronics, bass guitar, piano, drums, harmonium and Lenco turntables. The science: deep pulsations, organic drones, melodic feedback accompaniment, vinyl loops, analog sound sources, reversed audio, haunting vocal treatments. The sum: a living, breathing organism that sustains varied levels of function without ever losing its holistic unity. Presented in a heavy black matte digi printed with silver ink. Includes silver/black fold out insert. Photography by Rik Garrett.
