"9 tracks. 9 artists. 38 minutes. Clear vinyl. Clear Cover. No identifying marks. 500 copies. The first two releases in our self-styled 'anonymous' series. The representational analysis of music and the nostalgic sick bucket trip of music journalists provided the impetus for us to commission this series of releases. Wild boar attacks in France and Austrian immigration police also played a part. Only Peter knows the identity of all the participants, and he can neither read nor write; though he did whisper something about Madrid and biology. So throw away your copies of The Wire and forget Wagner meeting Throbbing Gristle in car crash with the Monkes whilst chewing the innards of a laptop computer, in the end, the only thing that can assist you are your ears."

"They said it would never happen, but it has! At last after a year in production and many tears shed, beers sunk and fist fights, we present 26 tracks of sharp and clean 'avant-pop' action from 'the multi-media cabal masquerading as a Scottish record label'. Everything we have ever thought or felt about music put into 72 short minutes, with contributions from friends we have debated with, missed deadlines with and never returned phonecalls to over the last 3 years plus 'live' snapshots from Diskono events. New tracks from Pimmon (Fallt / Staalplaat), Opopop (Alku / Mego), Antenna Farm (Fat Cat / Phtalo), Felix Kubin (Gagarin / A-Muzik), Danielle Lemaire (Inner Landscapes), Jan Van Den Dobblesteen (Cosmic Volume), Hrvatski (Reckancomplex), Jane Dowe (Mille Plateaux / RT Mark), Klaus Oldanburg, Docktor Barnes Advocaat, Gabriel Amato, Gunter Saxenhammer, CK Dexter Haven, Skagboy 3, Black Dot Corporation (Gentle Giant), Wee Dj's (Scusi / Penalty), Alejandra & Aeron (Lucky Kitchen / Fat Cat) plus both sides of Aerospace Soundwise's 'physical remix' 7" (released in May 1999 edition of 250), Kid 606's FRANTIC!!! cut and twist 'megamix' of Diskono 04, Jane Dowe's deconstruction of The Clash's 'I'm So Bored With The U.S.A.' and V/VM's notorious tribute to the don of techno 'String Up Your Wife'. All in 3 part sleeve designed by Klaus Oldanburg. 'Avant-pop' has never sounded so good ."

"Known from the duo Alejandra &Underwood, founder members of the Lucky Kitchen label and their release on Audioview. Aeron, a.k.a. Underwood, goes solo in sound here, but the artwork is again from the hands of Sandra & Aeron. Home and travelogue recordists who would prefer to describe their work as 'electronic folk music', Lucky Kitchen whilst analysing the tyrannies and controls imposed upon us all in our day to day existence, explore the freedom, joys and diversity of the network of anti-discipline? inherent in the self same arena of everyday life,' applying their unique musical vision to the moments that make life so special, from Sandra's childhood tape experiments to Aeron's ruminations on his grandmother's shed in Michigan. These non-contemporaneous elements take form as The Shed Album, the complete overall design produced by Aeron and Sandra in collaboration with an old school family Spanish printing house, on old machines by hand crank, resulting in unique disparity between each sleeve. Overall, Aeron says, The Shed Album is a vain and passionate attempt at a documentary, because documentary does not exist, but there we are."

"Lucky Kitchen founders Daniel Raffel and Aeron Bergman defect temporarily to find a home with kindred spirits Diskono. Once again bearing witness to what they term their 'obsessive recording habits' (Minidisc or tape recorders always primed and ready), The Love Album pieces together a series of lo-tech, collaged inventions, each 'musical' track bookended by a brief, raw-recorded clip of dialogue (interviews with a range of friends, family & acquaintances) on the theme of love/relationships, and the first flowerings of romance (numerous recollections of how 'X meets Y'). With its 25 tracks forming a series of clipped, fragmentary sketches, there's nonetheless something compelling and deeply enchanting about the results. 'Loveyou,givemenoonenew' and 'Watchingromanticindianmoviesathome' recall Foehn -- their lo-fi vocal sampling/looping shifting through a fog of woozy hiss and FX, tape clicks or slow, cavernous beats. 'Guitar Of Stele' transforms vocals and acoustic guitar strumming through speed-shifts, chopping up and stretching out the instrument in a more lo-fi echo of Fennesz' recent Mego 7". With their home taping/concrete sampling methods processed and reshaped through the PC, Suetsuo & Underwood confuse any neat binary dividing between analogue/digital, instead realising a kind of mediated, modern American folk (honest, urban, multicultural) that's grounded in the palpably 'real' atmosphere of their field recordings, whilst clawing out a fresh, uniquely creative use of electronics. Emotionally, the feel of the music is curiously downered, lacking in the giddying gushes and rushes, the indescribable mood-fluxes you'd associate with the concept. Nevertheless, the ensemble works as a refreshingly frayed and sketch-like audio-document, a homely patchwork of briefly glimpsed lives and ideas. Slipped out virtually unnoticed, without wishing to stand up or make bold declamations, The Love Album instead appears crafted with a genuine feeling and sense of community: an inventive and intimate tangling together of roots, stories and intriguing directions." -- Dave Howell
