Here is a NEW release on our tiny label, it's been a while but we're back with a 48 minutes long improv by PHOBoS
PHOBoS is a master circuit bender, a hardcore DIY-er and a noisetoy maker. This recording was made mostly as a
demo for the solenoid based mechanical toy piano PHOBoS built, but it also features a circuit bent MixMeDj and
other DIy instruments. You can find more info about these at the moonbase. (check PHOBoS' old webpage for some
really amazing circuit bent toys)

This is the description by PHOBoS as one can find at the electro-music.com forums: "I put the audio of the
Solenoid Pianoid (picked up by a piezo) through some delays. Added some MixMeDj (bent toy) sounds through an
Alesis Midiverb, and also hooked up one of my Drone boxes. This was all mixed in with a 20minute loop with some
beats, synthpads and a couple of other sounds"

Overall dark a moody repetitive 48 minutes or so that brings one in a trance like state while rough mutilated
drones are fading in and out ..

The new ep on shkart might be an attempt for glitch hop ,yet these 30 or so minutes are not really composed ,they could have been mistakes as they are ,yet warmer and a bit more friendly.
Still i wanted just to expose the most detailed and abstract moments.The idea behind the rough distorted crackles is basically using a pure sine wave generator and a input follower ,as a title from a band called "beirut - it's a long way from here to the sound ".the patches are as they are ,no midi ,no control (it's all deranged)
.And at last - enjoy if you can ,it was fun patching it all together in mulch.

Дисв0р - Аут

2009-02-27T09:50:00.000-08:00

Дисв0р е амерички бенд чиј албум dеmentiascope се најде меѓу првите изданија на шкарт ,во меѓувреме дисв0р направи уште неколку изданија кои можете слободно да ги симнете од страницата .
Во последниот албум аут - гитарите се длабоки и јасни , "avoid eye contact" е како air да решиле да снимаат албум на северниот пол.
Сепак дисв0р и во овој концепт вметнал на момент какофонија.Албумот е сепак доволно шарен скоро да мислите дека е компилација. И на крај убаво е што компјутерот е само еден инструмент често и помалку. Насловите покажуваат детерминираност ,и по малку блага хистерија ,а целото издание е несигурно како самрак и минималистичко.Насловната aut (part four) е одлична композиција за рикверц синтисајзер и пијано....

Blanch Estetika - Live 05 [shkart006]

2009-02-05T14:01:00.000-08:00

[мак]Бланш Естетика е сепак доволно познат наслов .И некаде меѓу малкуте причини за блогов е и тоа што на некој работи не им се слуша гласот како ова ,освен ако не решил некој да прави енциклопедиJа ..
Па од Прилеп Бланш Естетика и повеке музика во македонскиот ветер .Изданиево има две парчиња отсвирени и кажани , Ребаланс во Штип и во живо во Прилеп .

[Eng] True live improvisations ,a bass guitar ,crackle box ,drums and a few things to say to a group of hungry ghosts ,alike or not ,a standard vision..Blanch Estetika [Can] make a ritual punk of something you've just said ,so here are two live pieces ..
Rebalance in Stip and Live in Prilep

Zvucicach - Uvojna [shkart012]

2009-02-05T13:38:00.000-08:00

Ако сакате баш да знаете што би рекла машината за перење или правосмукалката кога би можела да прозбори ..тогаш ова е за вас ,или е тоа компјутерот со бронхитис?
Кога не знаеш дали е уво или е војна тогаш е Увојна , а не си у војна сепак ..
Шундимитатар е дел од групата свирачиња ,може да ги зирнете и слушнете на нивниот MySpace или на канал 103 на полноќ ,за едно екстра терапевтско и релаксирано аудио патување.

Monospit - Synesthesia treatments EP [shkart015]

2009-02-05T11:09:00.000-08:00

[мак] Целото ЕР потсеќа на изданијата на scape .Прекрасно изведено ,веројатно најдоброто амбиент издание на Шкарт ..Моноспит многу строго и дефининирано се поигрува со мелодиските структури толку органски по природа,кои потсеќаат на вода која успеала да се скрши .Во целата композиција од ритми кои ќе бидат или биле внимателно е вметнат бавен и меланхоличен синтисајзер околу кој се случува музиката.

Ezotera must have wrote, on arhive "melodic cutting edge improvisations,shivering space transsmited synewaves,atmospheric clicky soundtracks. Thousand minimal creatures gathered around the nest celebrating the breed in clicks and claps, harmonic broken function continuum ".....

Elinor - First Album [shkart008] (November 13, 2005)

2009-02-05T10:54:00.000-08:00

Really enjoy writing about this release ,downloaded 300 times only..too bad
ezotera wrote " 4 scrambled headz playing scrambled music "
the tracks are very short ,just the important things to hear most likely ,and i like that ,and it really makes it a gallery of harsh noizes and by all means a very sophisticated one .I don't know really how its all made ,but it all sounds very natural free and inspired.Probably the best noise on our page.

2Spacedout - Internal Error Analysis[shkart018]

2009-02-05T10:18:00.000-08:00

just nice droning expirience by 2Spacedout (now cloudhopper), whales and a huge empty space , a very classical picture ,two tracks on this ep ,with a certain religius filling ,the first one with its title "el fish de la monasterio" ,while the second one "internal error analisis" rich with high dolphin like pitches ,ritually fades from a gospel choir to a repetitive flute like phrase ..

Alienaqtor - Tales of Psychotropicadelia [shkart10]

2009-02-05T08:30:00.000-08:00

[Mак] Почетоците на Алиенактор се крајот на девеесетите години ,а изданието на Шкарт е од 2006 .Албумот "Приказни од психотропикаделија" ..4 Од 5 на скалата на интелегентна денс музика ,најмногу заради искреноста на пристапот ,класичниот пристап во моделирањето на звуците ,големите влијанија на техното од 90тите како орбитал ,speedy j...кој успеал Алиенактор да си ги задржи во својата музика ,па од таму интересен idm албум ,класични ритам машини ,ретро во семплувањето ,без непотребно процесирање ,звукот е сиров и dance ,искрен бразилски албум и офлајн карневал.

[Eng]Psychedelia, a very compact ep and still dark and gloomy , soundtracks, dreams, parallel universes and a nonsense which can be fake sometimes (therefore everything makes deep sense).
Creations destined to the dancefloors, to the sensorial possibilities, to breaking up with purism or exclusive styles: or these altogether.
this project fits well in the [shkrt] collection its dark,and well...can you dance to it..?

track 1 - intro

track 7 - Sim eu sou
