The Slovak duo BIOS - visual artist Boris Sirka and graphic designer Jozef Tušan - are based in east of Slovakia in Košice. We met them on our audio travelogue almost a year ago. From looping black metal records they are now slowly moving into similarly opaque but more abstract sonic territories - somewhere where drone, ambient and noise hovers in the background. These are two excerpts from their jamming at the Košice cultural space Tabačka.

Fledgling musician Jakub Nox Ambroziak from Slupsk in Poland and his music video done by Kamil Macejko. The video is for Ambroziak´s track Proton Decay taken from his new EP Atom.

Listen to the special Habitat collaborative radio from Bratislava’s Progressbar hackerspace. The lineup is composed of Bratislava’s dj’s, beatmakers and visual artists. We will join into the stream with some words and tunes from Prague at around 2200~ CET..

The idea for the new label LOM dedicated to “unknown or forgotten experimental artists .. mostly [from] Eastern Europe” was born during the Spring/Summer 2010. Its brain, the Slovak activist turned sound-artist mrkva, currently a sonology student at Den Haag’s Royal Conservatoire has put together an impressive roster of projects, that really range from the forgotten to the new & up-and-coming.

With the exception of Bratislava’s experimental éminence grise ::.: and his projects 1/x and Angakkut, all the artists featured on the inaugural release - a compilation called Zvukolom - are thus having their first release out, even though some, such as PRLN have been active in the field for more then a decade. The newcomers include Andras E.G. Csefalvay, whose conceptual and intertextual approach in his own artistic practice can be felt also on the tracks selected for the compilation, or Unbending Intent - a psychonaut on a darkambient sonic trip into the lower layers of the Self. Happy B-Day LOM !
