Calineczka megapost

I have now finished my PhD and I'm free from the ordeal, but I'm still recovering from it (i.e. sleeping, spending time being lazy or being a good father), so posts won't become regular anytime soon. But, a reader asked for more Calineczka, I realized that all previous uploads of Calineczka are down, so I decided to make a megapost with all stuff I have bought or located on his archive. Some are also up for free at several labels on bandcamp (Steep Gloss, Invisible City, Szara Reneta, Important Drone, Park 70, 1834, Game Of Life, Innerspace, Attenuation Circuit, Now DAT's What I Call Music), and it would be great for you to get them from those places to support them, but you can look into my original posts from the respective Calineczka tag below.

Sorry, what is Calineczka. Well, it is Michal, one of the best people I've spoken to through the internet, and he does pineal gland-stimulating modular drone.

Nurse With Wound ‎– The Grave And Beautiful Name Of Sadness CD

Among the most depressive and dystopian stuff ever played by Nurse With Wound, this includes two different recordings of the track "The Grave And Beautiful Name Of Sadness," which was originally recorded in 1984 with Geoff Cox on voice, and originally appeared on Steven Stapleton and David Tibet's album The Sadness Of Things in 1991, as well as well a rerecording of "I Cannot Feel You As The Dogs Are Laughing And I Am Blind" from Homotopy To Marie. 2025 CD on ICR.

Calineczka – Entia Non Grata

Calineczka is back after three years of absence with another monument of immobile pineal gland decaying analog/modular drone. Digital file only from INNERSPACE Prod., you can either download it here or

Jazzfinger - Night Fall At Borrowed World tape

A bit more folky and psychedelic, this one, thus it sounds slightly brighter. 2012 tape on Sonic Oyster Cassettes.

Download 

Jazzfinger - Titan Granolith 2 X tape

Moist, oozing improv drones by the masters, with lots of organ to put us into blissful coma. 2 X tape on Blackest Rainbow.

PS: In the past couple of years, I've been working hard to finish my PhD, along with working too much and raising my son. This is not going to be a real return to posting consistently, just doing it when I have some time off.

Asunta – Astralis

And again. And again. And again. And again. 

1999 cdr on Nefryt.

Download

Asunta – Transfiguracja

 

Yes, more of the same repetitive clarinet melodies, and yes it's equally mesmerizing.

1999 cdr on Hey Joe.

Download

Asunta – Landscapes

Don't remember how I ran into this band, but due to the Russian invasion in Ukraine, it was quite hard to manage to pay a Russian guy who sold it to me, as all common platforms have banned transactions with people from Russia.

This is one of the most mesmerizing, bewitching, meditative musics ever recorded. It is just clarinet-led psychedelic ambient drone essentially playing the same thing over and over but it's so beautiful I would include in the soundtrack of the movie Tangerines.

Originally released as a tape by Nefryt in 1996, my rip is from the 2001 cdr reissue on Lollipop Shop.

Per & Öystein – Evil Noise II

 

Aaaaand the follow-up tape after which they produced nothing more. This one sounds closer to Silvester Anfang = there's also flute wanking all around. 2005 tape on Funeral Folk.

Download

Per & Öystein – Evil Noise

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Per & Öystein were an improv psych drone duo who also played in Silvester Anfang and Sylvester Anfang II. The music is not very different from what Silvester Anfang were doing, that is noisy underground psych, albeit in a much more abstract manner and with more use of electronics and even more lo-fi. There is a nice guitar epic chord sequence building up around 11:30 but then it stops. 2004 tape on Funeral Folk.

Download

Satanhartalt - Forscr​í​fan tape

Fuck yes new Satanhartalt tape after like 5 years and it's still as ominous and cavernous as ever revolving around an unbelievable dissonant chord. Amazing shit, much better than all that sketchy and untalented bm, punk or whatever Legion Blotan does. 2022 tape on Legion Blotan.

Download

Waz Hoola – Epithelials 3" cdr

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep, last Waz Hoola release that evaded now in my hands. Deep sinister droning ambient, one of his best recordings hands down. 3" cdr on MUZZeDIA VERHEAD.

Download

Jazzfinger – Ugly For A Living

The godfathers of skronky impro drone on a very heavy fuzzed-out jam. "Shribble By The Shoals And Stepping Stones" is an amazing hypnotic track. Sounds somewhat like Burzum' "Tomhet" but without the melody, just a monotonous synth drone. Really good. 2005 cdr on Gold Soundz.

Helena Ford appreciation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Helena Ford is a Chicago-based transgender musician whose work expands all over drone, improv, dungeon synth, dark ambient, industrial noise, electroacoustic, and microtonal deep listening ambient. Much of the themes on which she has based her music revolves around gender dysphoria, hormone replacement and psychotherapy. Really, her recordings are so multifaceted you should just devote two or three days listening to the whole shit, which is also free on her bandcamp here, but I'm just going to pick a few which really impressed the shit out of me. Also loving the corpsepaint and the Burzum-like skullcrasher bat thingy, guess Varg would be really pissed at! Links on titles. Goes without saying that this blog upholds difference and the challenge of gender/sex stereotypes along with fighting fascism, racism, capitalism, patriarchy and homophobia and is open to any non-binary/LGBTQI+-themed music that will be appealing to me.

Therapy Goals: revolving around psych/Eastern scale guitar meanderings and full-on Sunn O))) like power drone.

The Human Veil - s/t: holy fucking shit dungeon synth and organ vespers-like goodness

Examinations in Minimalism & Transgender Musicality: weird alternation between sine waves, modular drone, mellotrons and deep listening ambient

Larsen Symphonique + Organ Works: microtonal drone, organ holiness and avant-garde drone.

Elegy for 1992: bro this is soooo good. She's taken figures from John Cage's prepared piano Sonatas and added huge reverb to it.

Pieces for Electric Bass, Baritone, and Guitar: can't say how much I'm loving this, especially the second baritone track. Get it. Now. It's free.

Hemicrania: ambient noise wall discordant bliss.

Music for Bows and Rosin: this sounds quite a bit like post-reformation Skullflower, especially around the period Lee Stokoe was in. Great.

Bridget Hayden – Record 2 / Seven Beginnings

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once again, hails to Jani from Uton for helping me find this. Most of that early Bridget Hayden solo stuff sounds much more abstract and noisy than her later dirgy beauty. On the first track among all the noises, Puccini's La Boheme can be heard, while the third track is violin improv like her good old Vibracathedral Orchestra days.

Skullpture / Destroy All Tie Fighters – Split

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You know what the deal is like now with the blog. I moved out of the house two months ago so it's been pretty hectic with moving out/moving in/arranging things etc. But now I feel much better being on my own, with just my son, my job, my phd and my internal peace to tend to. So now I feel like getting this blog working on a more regular basis, but summer boredom/sleepiness is also a factor.

This is a cd I was very deeply after for lots of years after being extremely blown away by the Destroy All Tie Fighter track on the Your Own Shadow Blocks The Light comp tape on Hyster Tapes, which I had posted on the early phase of the blog and you can listen to here.  Turns out the person behind Hyster Tapes and Grey Park was a member of Destroy All Tie Fighters, which now makes more sense about the awesomeness. So, thanks to Jani from Uton for helping me locate and finally acquire this cd.

So, with Skullpture we get awesome improv electroacoustic drone that is very immersive and I wouldn't find it very far away from what Aethenor would do years later, while Destroy All Tie Fighters does three otherwordly tracks of improv drone somewhere between The Dead C and Hawkwind. Great stuff, highly recommended.

Phill Niblock – Music By Phill Niblock

 

Hello to everyone. Thank you for all the messages you have sent asking whether I am ok. To be honest, I am not. Since the last time last November many things have happened, including getting the covid, but that was the least serious. The strain on my mental health is very big and I now take anti-depressants and anti-psychotics to get me through. I can't promise I'll write frequently, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone.

So here's an awesome majestic droning minimal classic masterpiece by Phill Niblock. One track is a string quartet, the other one is two flutes but on an epic scale. 1993 cd on XI.

Razen - Rim Saraband

 

One of the most "acoustic" but highly droned-out recording of Razen, featuring immersive jams with Eastern wind and string instruments. Awesome. 2013 tape on Sloow Tapes.

Bombay Lunatic Asylum ‎– Mad Song

 

 Second album of zoning Indian classical drone rituals by Louise Landes Levi, Bart DePaepe and Koen Vandenhoudt. 2021 LP on Oaken Palace.

Jazzfinger - Bad Timing I

 

 This really was a double cd called Bad Timing I & II, but the box I received had twice the same disc with a different cd cover. Meh. So if anyone has the second disc, please send it over here. Anyway, this is an IMMERSIVE mix of Jazzfinger live performances at their absolute best = not extremely noisy or badly recorded, but with a hypnotic and outright devotional approach. The gigs themselves must have been amazing for the audiences. 2007 cdr on Fuckin' Amateurs.
