Hi folks,
for those of you that I'm not in connection via Facebook, here's the news.
The "A-Sites" 12" split vinyl from myself and a Hungarian-Slovakian producer Imre Kiss is now available for pre-order. Get it here:

(there are some tracks available as a teaser, bandcamp style)
Lobster Theremin's Imre Kiss and Exitab's Casi Cada Minuto: 'A-sites' the new split series curated by the recently launched Proto Sites imprint pairs two burgeoning artists. The fledgling Hungarian producer confirms his status as one of the pillars of Budapest's murky underground, delving beyond the immersive haze-house deconstructions of his 'Midnight Wave' tape and the now sold-out 'Raw Energy' EP (labeled as 12” of the month by FACT's Vinyl Factory). The dissolving and re-compounding techno ridden tropes of 'Urizen' (feat. S Olbricht) could go on forever, strengthening its intensity with each loop. Tangible percussion work and occasional down pitched vocal samples dominates the uneasy 'Dis Slo' but its the Kiss' trademark synths which delivers the greatest impact. For its carefully chosen momentum shifts aren't far from recalling the repetitive tension of William S. Burroughs' dream machine. Although the rich yet minimalist aural texture of Casi Cada Minuto's 'Intonarumori' comes in juxtaposition to Kiss' decayed sound, its loopy wave motion seemingly never ending or beginning, holds same affinity for the effects of repetition and strangely volatile synth work. With 'Mindless' the fluid hallucinatory setting comes full circle: distinct echo of early cosmische/krautrock collides with radio-static emissions reminiscent of NASA's recent soundcloud contribution to the world.
The LP will be a 12" transparent red vinyl with custom printed pocket. Mastered by Stephen Bishop from Opal Tapes. It's going to be beautiful - check the artwork:
Any support from your side will be highly appreciated, lots of cash and effort went to this release. Plus, I'm totally proud of it.
