FIENDISH FIB "Down in the mine" |
| tut017 |
Released: 2011 |
Format: LP |
Price: 160.00 SEK |
| Three years after the “Nervous Split”, Fiendish Fib return to TuT/RuR with a retrospective LP, the outcome of a long search into the depths of the Franco-German duo’s secret tape-archives. Here are 22 songs of DIY subterranean post-punk, dada lo-fi art-rock, state of the art tape industrial, home-made teen-horror-movie soundtracks, potlatch drinking symphonies, darkly alienated proto-techno and sheer bat’n’roll insanity. A 50 minutes trip down Fiendish Fib’s memory mine, which takes us back to the days of tape-overdub abuse, radios turned guitar effects, MS 10 bleepadelica and vintage beat box worshipping. Enough to send shivers of delight down the spine of every Insane Music or Ptôse aficionado. “Et en avant la musique…” Pink Vinyl Lim Ed 309x -Treue um Treue |

DOLINA "Dolina" |
| tut016 |
Released: 2010 |
Format: LP |
Price: 150.00 SEK |
| Long overdue debut album of the Franco-Belgian electronic trio. While their music undeniably carries the heritage of French Cold Wave - think DIE BUNKER and TRISOMIE 21 - their synth ethics are more akin to those of David Harrow or N.O.’s Gillian Gilbert. With their brothers in arms PIERRE NORMAL they share a taste for carefully arranged lyrics and electronics, but if their take on French Chanson is equally synth-driven, it is also far more sombre, flirting at times with Angst Pop and even Bat Cave. Powerful anthems, ghostly waltzes and chilling sweet-sour ballads, served by male and female vocals in French and English, haunt the grooves of this eponymous first LP, which reveals the band as one of the spearheads of the Cold Synth-Wave renaissance.

ICH WOLLTE, ICH KÖNNTE "At the gate" |
| tut015 |
Released: |
Format: 7" |
Price: 100.00 SEK |
| It is written that somewhere between dawn and noon, in a place bright like the sun, there is a door…. Three years after “In Memoriam”, IWIK are back with a 7-inch EP inspired by Saint John the Apostle and the symbolism of the solsticial gates. Whilst thematically closer to Tradition than in their previous works, IWIK stay musically true to their own brand of cold and melancholic electro-wave, as the four new ballads on this record follow in the steps of the acclaimed debut LP. Esoteric cold-romantica at its best! Golden vinyl, Lim Ed 366x -T.u.T. |

NARROW "From diy with love" |
| tut014 |
Released: 2010 |
Format: LP |
Price: 140.00 SEK |
| Inspired by the collage and improvisation aesthetics of the likes of TG and CABARET VOLTAIRE, the music of the now defunct Croatian duo NARROW is pure DIY, acknowledging cut’n’paste and lo-fi analogue sound processing as both a working method and a source of inspiration. The band's weapons of choice are a couple of tape decks, an old walkman and actual synths and effects, with which they take us back to the heyday of tape-industrial. Ten highly rhythmic, noise-informed minimal gems, sometimes mutating into catchy electro songs which carry in them both post-punk echoes and angst-pop promises. Think Esplendor Geometrico, Blackhouse, early Portion Control as well as Mental Codes. Lim Ed 310x -TUT |

ALONE "Fossilized in Concrete 1995-2006" |
| tut012 |
Released: 2009 |
Format: LP |
Price: 150.00 SEK |
| ALONE from Belgrade have been active both as a performing and recording project since 1994. Their style is a unique brand of high-tech electro-wave, allying the pathos and weirdness of KIRCHOHMFELD, the complexity and killing beat-programming of LASSIGUE BENDTHAUS and the unpredictability of PIERRE NORMAL. This is their first ever vinyl release, a selection of tracks spanning a period of almost 12 years. Definitely pop but never easy, futurist and neo-romantic at times, ALONE’s music remains through the years as unfamiliar and utterly compelling as the post-apocalyptic landscapes it tells us about. Like a voice from the outer world, ALONE takes us to the nexus in time and space where each may find their Golden Path. Lim Ed 318x -T.u.T. |

AD ABSURDUM "Ausuferung" |
| tut010 |
Released: 2008 |
Format: LP |
Price: 150.00 SEK |
| First full-length LP by AD ABSURDUM, aka the Giorgio Moroder of Black Minimal Chiptunes, aka the Grand Master of Viking Synthie Pop. Locked up in his cellar with his faithful Amiga 500, our lonesome bard has spent two years brewing up the most improbable brand of weird but cheerful minimal elektro with a definite all-over BM feeling... Add to this cocktail a couple of COILesque ambient tunes and a medieval rhythmic-noise anthem, and you’ll get a whole new experience in electronic music, discarding all genre boundaries like once Njurmännen, but with guaranteed dance-floor efficiency... So put on your corpse paint and slip in the Workbench V1.3 : for here come True German Black Minimal Chip Tunes! Lim Ed 317x -T.u.T. |

DR. C. STEIN "Liège In The Spring" |
| TUT 008 |
Released: 2007 |
Format: 10" |
Price: 140.00 SEK |
| Second chapter of Treue um Treue’s collaboration with synthesizer magician Dr C. STEIN, “Liège in the Spring” presents a new selection of songs which, like the analogue gems released last year on “Echo Trip”, were all initially recorded between 1983 and 1988. But this time the mood is different, more versatile and adventurous. Here solemn and experimental, there playful and dance-floor orientated, this second vinyl appearance gives a fuller measure of the artist’s multiple talent. This time the Doctor not only plays, but also occasionally sings for you and even comes back to his first love, the flute, on one track. -Treue um Treue. Lim ed 514x |

WERMUT / FIENDISH FIB "The Nervous Split" |
| TUT 007 |
Released: 2007 |
Format: 10" |
Price: 140.00 SEK |
| Old friends meet again on this semi-paleontological split release between yesterday’s France and today’s Germany. Toulouse-based duet FIENDISH FIB appears here with unreleased material from the late 80s / early 90s, restored from the original demo-tape: seven post-punk industrial anthems, between Coil, Pseudo Code, The Residents and early Die Form. For their Teutonic response and homage to these tunes from the past, WERMUT choose to reveal the electro-punk side of their versatile personality, with dance-floor orientated songs in the vein of the “Hoffnung” LP. For all the nervous boys and girls of then and now! -Treue um Treue. Lim ed 317x

SUNEATERS "Cosmic Insight, Baby (PART 1)" |
| RUR 005 |
Released: 2007 |
Format: 10" |
Price: 150.00 SEK |
| The electronics of the legendary 70s "Berliner Schule" are coming back to life again! Tobias Fischer (Feu Follet/Naarmann und Neiteler) and Mirko Uhlig (solo/Aalfang mit Pferdekopf) are openly displaying their love for floating pads, pulsating sequencers, dynamic melodies and freely breathing soundscapes. The duo combines the warmth and deepness of analogue "cosmic music" with emotional drones and contemporary electronics. References are plentiful, ranging from the great pioneers Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze as well as Kluster and Eno to the magical musical territories of Coil, Robert Fripp and Mirror. Featuring the guest appearance of renowned ambient and classical composer Steve Jolliffe (founding member of Supertramp and Tangerine Dream) on flute. -Reue un Reue. Lim ed 347x |

UNIDAD SASAO "The Skin I´m In" |
| RUR 004 |
Released: 2006 |
Format: LP |
Price: 150.00 SEK |
| Three years after his acclaimed solo debut on Nekofutschata, Novy Svet’s long-time collaborator Tristan Sasao finally returns to show us a definitely more electronic facet of his unpredictable talent. A crystalline séance in prog-elektro disguise, “The Skin I’m in” is a truly unclassifiable album which addresses both the body and the mind, playfully swaying between post-cabaret electronica, freaked-out analogue breaks and acid chill-out ditties. A masterpiece of modern experimental electronics, expect nothing but genius! -Reue um Reue. Lim ed 303x (colored vinyl) |
