Following on the success of the debut album, 'Aircode', Silence Drift returns with deep and tunefully beautiful 'Landscapes Through The Viewfinder', his second full-length album. Hypnotic and charmful journey to the mystery of ancient tropical rainforest, filled with nostalgic melancholy. A breathtaking masterpiece! 'Lanscapes' was written and recorded by Maxim partially over his trip to Cambodia and Thailand, during July-August, 2008. The jungle atmosphere was an important influence in these pieces, as they helped him to capture a tremendous beauty of nature. Additional piano, vocal and guitar recordings was made at his home studio in Moscow.

"Phantastique" is a virtual LP. The intension was to make a straight, plain and simple jam record based on some repetitive patterns, at least in Joxfield ProjeX terms of what is straight, plain and simple. Not to get too much stuck into the spacey jams the tunes are separated by some short experimental pieces. Look at these moments as opportunities to get some good, fresh air.
Even though it’s maybe not heard in the music, the main inspirational sources for these recordings are some albums by Acid Mothers Temple, especially Kawabata Makoto’s mixing style, but also some funky grooves from Miles Davis ‘On The Corner’ period.

"Entering The Ocean" is the first studio album of Ishizuke Children. Long majestic compositions remind the Buddhist temple ceremonies. It's deeper than the deepest ocean. Themes of tracks are ecology, nonviolence, intercorrection of all life in the universe, instant karma, search for the mysterious in everyday.

Children Of Ishizuke Tree - the guitar duo from Minsk, Belarus, consists of Alexander Haletski and Marina Bartosh. Formed in 2009. Style of music – something between noise, drone, shoegaze and academic minimalism. Band practices playing in a few amps and distortions of sound.

"Magical music on "Eurasia" is full of apprentice's patience, unruffled cal and Buddhist leniency towards all living beings. We hear insisde ourselves what is there and take it as it is". Simply speaking, they are playing the air and aren't being in a stew. The most important discipline of The Winter War In Tibet is the lightness and naturalness - the lightness and naturalness of running water.

Band THE WINTER WAR IN TIBET was formed in 2008 in Minsk, Belarus. This is collaboration of musicians from Minsk groups BOGOMATER’ CVETOV (FLOWERMOTHER), URLA MAKABRA, INSUMTHINMAGMA, CHILDREN OF ISHIZUKE TREE, THE SHAPE, SANGIITA SHUNAKA and SNEZHINKI. A distinctive feature of the band’s music are the sound experimentation and improvisations at the junction of ethnic, rave and rock. Band’s name comes from the similar book written by Swiss writer Friedrich Durrenmatt. THE WINTER WAR IN TIBET has made its debut at the opening of the international festival “Kamen” («Камень») in Minsk in October 2008, accompanying Damo Suzuki, the world-known vocalist of cult German kraut-rock band CAN. In 2009 the band recorded about 20 improvisatory releases.

Fracture are a three piece free jazz/improvisation/sound manipulation group from Melbourne, Australia who are interested primarily in the manipulation of sound. Regular concepts of progression, time and melody are set aside in favour of textural and timbrel sonic manipulation, completely in the moment. This album contains five improvised pieces of music recorded at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, in August 2009.
