More Info

"Das erstes Vinyl für das aufstrebende Berliner rhythm-noise-industrial label AD NOISEAM kommt von den belgischen Chamäleonen AMMO und dem kanadischen Experimental-Projekt SZKIEVE. AMMO verbinden hier gekonnt ruhigere Sounds (Choirs, Flächen) mit elektronischen Effekten und Samples zu einer befremdlichen Traumlandschaft. Sehr subtil und mikroskopisch geht es dagegen auf der SZKIEVE-Seite zu, sehr gut !" [Drone Rec. 2002]
“Ammo is the child of the productive belgian musicians John Sellekaers (Xingu Hill, Ambre, Dead Hollywood Stars, Torsion...) and C-drik (Crno Klank, Axiome, Ambre, Dead Hollywood Stars). Letting out their most diverse creations, the duo has already released an album of drum'n'bass ("The age of terminal irony"), a single of breakcore covers of pop songs ("Beautiful
people") and a free improvisation with found samples ("Kaleinoiscope"). "Terra Amata" is probably their most emotional material. A encompassing track that mixes noises and orchestral parts, in which intense outbursts of sounds wake the listener from an unsafe daydream. Szkieve is the musical output of Dimitri della Faille, the head of Hushush, one of today's most interesting labels. With his first release, "Des germes de quelque chose", Dimitri was exploring high frequencies and ear piercing noises, while always keeping a very innovative and intelligent approach to its sound. His track for this split, "Perturbacée" is a thought provoking deep ambient piece, where drones and oscillations are kings. This is the
kind of music that doesn't need vocals to touch you, full of subtilities, details and inner strength.” [press-release]
