yep, it's true! rundownsun has re-issued the ultra limited "maillart extended"! here's what we said about it the first time:

UNCOMPROMISING. UNFLINCHING. UNCHANGING.
A PURITY STATEMENT. AN IDEOLOGY.
A WAY OF LIFE.

clocking in at just over 30 minutes "MAILLART EXTENDED" is the ultimate raising of the stakes. no dynamic, no progression, just a relentless flood of near physical lead and concrete noise. no air. no space. no spazz. possibly some of The Rita's most brutal, and challenging work to date. limited edition. hand numbered. leaderless c30 cassette allows for instant start and infinite play*. xerox labels, xerox/hand painted acetate cover, handmade, hand-stamped "obi" strip

yep it's all that plus the tape is now high bias and louder than ever! unnumbered edition of 50.

ominous. dark-cloud-doom-drones gather and give way to cold harsh winds of static. dread sets in. paralysis by fear. the deafening hum subsides, the frantic chatter of the final moments breaks through. the last transmission, the last sound before the fall. edition of 100. offset and screen printed 2 panel covers on heavy paper. xerox insert. xerox labels. high-bias tapes.

KS brings you another tangled web of feedback, and shriek vocals! totally messed up and messy. chaotic spazz channeled through some serious power-electronics-hatred come SoCal-hardcore-anguish! total fuckin' punk rock noise. edition of 100. 50 in stenciled and spray-painted cases with insert, 50 with silk screen and insert. xerox labels. xerox insert. high-bias tapes. sick surprise in everyone!

primitive, minimal, and brutal. 'pine apparition' is what can only be described as an electrified pre-historic soundscape. shimmering crystalline beauty collides head on with thick organic muck. crisp tones, and pristine electric crackle are obliterated by pulsating ooze and monstrous crunchy burl! it's like listening to geological birthing pains. the legendary RJP, a master at the top of his game. artwork by RJP printed in black on heavy grey paper. hand numbered 2-panel insert. spray painted high-bias cassette. edition of 100.

there's something wrong with your tape deck dude! total cassette tape-melt-down! high-volume walkman abuse and gross, vomit electronics from ex-cunuck dallas K! absolutely disgusting puke-noise, barf-tape hiss, and sputter. following up two nasty cds for UK label chocolate monk. this shit empties a room like an unpleasant odor.

'if i were in a green mist, i'd want a fucking gas mask' - LL

hand numbered and stamped, colour printed, chipboard covers. crummy xeroxed insert. spray painted cases. spray painted high-bias tapes. edition of 100

huge machines deep below the earth turn and grind. the chitter of a 19th century indian counting house drowns in the din of a passing funeral procession. tibetan horns sink in the white fog of a marrakech opium den. 6 or 7 brief studies in heavy atmosphere and bummed-out smokey-haze. a mixture of 'impossible' field recordings, shitty electronics, harmonium, accordion and missing time. spray painted high bias tapes. offset printed and silk screened covers on recycled paper. numbered edition of 50.

this is it, the very first label release for long running cult-underground harsh noise/power electronics/drone artist flatgrey! so before i write some copy about how fucking rad THIS tape is i'd like to say a few things about the artist and his work. flatgrey is one of the most powerful, and versatile noise artists i've ever had the privilege of knowing, promoting and playing with. live his performances have always been focused and compelling, controlled and powerful. his numerous self-released cd's have always been killer, one often drastically different from the last, but always a treat. after years of playing live in and around vancouver, and well over a dozen self-released cds it's time this dude SOLD SOME FUCKING PRODUCT! contact him for a list of available self-released material flatgrey@gmail.com

flatgrey is dedication! flatgrey is obsession! side a is a blistering, face-melting, sheet of white-hot noise swirling in a perpetually escalating shit-storm of a harsh noise whirlwind. side b is less harsh but a no less engulfing turbine-drone, piecing, jet-engine noise blast. only for the heads.

silk-screened cassette case. hand stamped and wax sealed band. spraypainted and labeled high-bias cassette. 2nd edition of 50. $6.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.

over a year in the making, and well worth the wait. BT.HN. (LA BETE HUMAINE) brings you to a place where profane ritual meets barbaric violence! domineering waves of crushing bass and crackling electronics bury slithering spoken rites, and crest in thundering commands. a steady, measured rumble peppered with heavily effected vocals breaks into volatile metal abuse. vocals shift from paced incantation to frantic possession! similar to the abrasive works of TAINT, ATRAX MORGUE and IUGULA-THOR, but underpinned by a raw, ritualistic violence.

2-sided black and white offset-printed cover on heavy paper. one-sided 12" 33rpm vinyl record with silk-screened b-side. housed in a crystal-clear, heavy polyvinyl sleeve.featuring art and layout from the artist. $12.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.

piercing frequencies in dead air. subterranean scuttering, metal scrapes, gross mouth sounds, and ritual moans. dank, dark and depressing. it's warm deep within the caves where the society dwells. this signals the end of the old path. spray painted high bias tapes. xerox artwork on heavy paper. xerox insert. numbered edition of 50.

no howling abyss. no death-silent vacuum. just the ever present anti-presence of 60 cycles. hardly above perception. life between high voltage power lines. you're living it every day. no sounds, just pure, harnessed electricity. from canada's reigning underground drone lord. spray painted high bias tapes. xeroxed and hand inked artwork on recycled paper. xerox insert on gold paper. numbered edition of 100.

(co-released with militant walls, iatrogenesis and dada drumming records)

DISCLAIMER: if you're looking for dynamics, variation, or any other facets of musicality this is not the record for you. period.

a pure and focused collaboration from OSCILLATING INNARDS, PEDESTRIAN DEPOSIT, and THE RITA. to call this recording 'brutal', 'unforgiving', or 'punishing', would only belittle the finesse, poise, and obsession with which it was executed.

"if only you could realize you listen to noise because it roars like a jet engine or rips like a dragster" - c

RUNDOWNSUN exclusive special edition includes one-sided 12" LP with silk screened b-side, silk screened cover on heavy paper, and high quality glossy black and white 11"x17" poster of album art and label info(not shown) $10.00

first new recordings from these 2 mysterious outfits in almost 2 years! IN FLUX set off in a shambolic observance of ominous tidal noise! high priestess and cohorts lead an obscured ceremony of occult tongues and oblique sonics, breaking into a crushing, rhythmic trance, and concluding with a spellbinding ecstatic mass in a fog of horns, pulsating electronics and voices.

beausoleil and r-h jr. return with a spirit-channeling effort in subtle, swirling frequency shifts. drawing their power from medium beausoleil's haunting channeled voices, thee holee see conjure a cloud heady and feverish, yet icy-clear, moody and manipulative. the new spiritualist revival. a summons from the sea. this is no windham-hill. this is the real new age.

colour offset-printing on heavy colour paper. spraypainted high bias cassette. xerox insert. hand numbered edition of 50. $6.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.

with cold, calculated precision, 'grim housekeeper' marks the triumphant return of canadian noise legend ryan bloomer(flatline construct, trauma tone) as stegm. best known for staggering collaborations with dominick fernow of prurient, and various releases on fernows hospital productions label, stegm produces a unique variety of heavy, synthetic, industrial/power electronics. the four tracks of 'grim housekeeper' constitute a spiral of chaotic descent, self-control, self-possession, disassociation and ambiguity. with a precise hand bloomer constructs harsh, angular environments from scathing electronics, and subsonic bass. sounds are organized to a geometry all his own--possessed, only to crumble in a bass-quake of stomach quivering self-doubt. unsettling, instrumental power electronics.

50 copies in special packaging. 50 in silk-screened 5" boxes. wrapped in butchers paper, and sealed with a sticker. 2 spraypainted and labeled high bias cassettes. xerox insert. hand numbered edition of 100. $10.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.

long-awaited vinyl debut from vancouver underground noise legend flatgrey. industrial noise. harsh, industrial noise. pure sound. mechanical, electrical, valve and tube. scrounged, rescued and resurrected. filtered through obsession. menacing roars of bass pushed along grinding mechanics, like millions of rows of pneumatic teeth. heaving, gnashing. compressor hiss, and blast furnace tongue. incendiary atmosphere, superheated, and forced through junked magnets and shredded cones. a nameless exercise.

1-sided gold offset-printing on heavy black paper. one-sided 12" 33rpm vinyl record with silk-screened b-side. housed in a crystal-clear, heavy polyvinyl sleeve. featuring art and layout from the artist. $12.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.

rundownsun is proud to announce yet another master work of jon borges'(pedestrian deposit, black air, knives) minimal and highly finessed noise/power electronics project emaciator. with heavy references to the early '80's european industrial scene, most notably the BROKEN FLAG label, emaciator walks a path quite divergent from borges' previous work. discarding the progressive, heavily edited, harsh-blast approach, in favour of steady throbbing drones, controlled feedback, and sickly vocals. self-described as the antithesis of pedestrian deposit, emaciator's focus is regression, degradation, and waste.

human waste... habit, vice. inevitable conclusion. final solution. turn back the hands.

silver offset-printing on heavy colour paper. spraypainted high bias cassette. hand numbered edition of 100. $6.00 usd + postage. wholesale available.
