STATEART NEWS
MONOPOLY RECORDS (Russia) Monopoly Records is a newly established independent record label from Moscow. It is devoted to releasing and promoting artists who do not submit to any concrete music categories – artists who present an unique face against the myriad of monotonous muzzles. Summing things up: Monopoly Records supports clever, non-standard and category-less music that appeals to any open-minded audience beyond genres and cliches.
Exclusive distribution by STATEART ALLIANCE worldwide!
CYCLOTIMIA "Trivial Pleasures" MCD
(MONO 001-1003) Only during a short period, CYCLOTIMIA have achieved a solid status and profound reputation as composers of impressive sound sculptures and, how we like to call it, fantastic "head cinema". Presented for the first time on their newly established label, the duo now returns with "Trivial Pleasures" - part one in a trilogy of more abstract sound works called "L'Electronique Mondial". A dramatic contrast to previous releases, CYCLOTIMIA now shape a completely different transposition of image into music. In addition to the usually clean and perfected collages, which still dominantly mark the characteristic aura of CYCLOTIMIA’s music, the group generates an uncompromisingly sharp and sterile character of automation as an attempt to transpose trivial modern day-by-day life mechanisms into music. The result is a digital vortex through 11 tracks and 26 minutes of virtual economy, an audible journey through the data processing systems of stock markets, fast computers, cash registers, TV sets and electronic payment systems – disturbing, mind-numbing and thoroughly modern.
DVAR "Rakhilim" CD
(MONO 002-1103) "Rakhilim" is the 3rd album by DVAR – bizarre musicians of unknown identity and origin. Active since the early 90’s with a daily growing stubborn fan base and two albums called "Piirrah" and "Roah" released thus far, DVAR create exceptionally weird and original music – even an almost independent genre, difficult to describe. Imagine King Diamond performing his lyrics hysterically in alien language on an acid overdose, accompanied by oriental, bubbling and synthesized electronics, somewhere between naively playful and disturbingly sinister, perfectly executed by a thick and crisp sound engineering per excellence. Judging by the obscure and psychotic nature, we wouldn’t be a bit surprised if DVAR is an association of residents from an insane asylum. Whatever their problem is, let’s hope science won’t find a cure!
