We have started a new regular series of download-only releases. The first downloads are "Live at Belly" by Alexei Borisov & Anton Nikkilä and "Soundtrack from the film Hermafrodiitit" by Swissair. Both are available now from Diogenes Music, Boomkat, Other Music, Thrill Jockey, eMusic, Amazon (USA) and iTunes, with more to follow.
Two tracks from "Live at Belly" by Alexei Borisov & Anton Nikkilä are also released elsewhere. "Engineer Strepetov's Curve" is featured on the "Wire Tapper 19" compilation CD given away for free with the April issue of The Wire Magazine, while "The Spectre of Muzak" is featured on the "Untypical" compilation CD, which comes with this year's first issue of the Lithuanian arts magazine CAC Interviu in April.
Future releases in our download-only series include new material from 60's living legend Pekka Airaksinen (of The Sperm fame), Helsinki's bright young promises Ponytail and Pasilian savut and archival material from 80's experimentalists Jungle from Leningrad.
Simultaneously with each new download-only release we re-release relevant CD's from our back catalogue. Out now are "Typical Human Beings" from 2004 by Alexei Borisov & Anton Nikkilä and the compilation "Pilottilasit - Samples from Helsinki Underground 1981-1987" originally released in 2000.
There are six new releases in our CD shop. Below is brief information on each of them - you can find out more by following the links.
Alexei Borisov's CD "MP3 Kollekciya", released in December 2007 by Moscow's BRP/RMG label, collects over 5 hours of Borisov's music from 1999 to 2006. Included are his out-of-print CD-R album "På köket" released in 1999 by Moscow's Insofar Vapour Bulk plus more recent live recordings and film music.
Just before this, BRP/RMG released Volga's "MP3 Kollekciya" CD, which similarly contains 5 hours of high-quality mp3's. Included are Volga's debut CD "Volga, Volga" from 1999, "Bottoms Up!" (2003), Concert (2003), "Three Fields" (2004) and a previously unreleased concert recording from Helsinki's Kiasma Theatre (2004).
Volga's latest album, "Pomol" released in the EU by UK's Lumberton Trading Company, has now been released in Russia by Moscow's Manas label and is available worldwide from us.
Three collaborative albums featuring Alexei Borisov have been released in the past months and are now available from our webshop as well. These are "Ornaments" by Cisfinitum/Miguel Ruiz/Alexei Borisov, "PromZona" by Alexei Borisov & Roman Turchak, and "1" by Rada and Gosplan Trio.

There are two new releases in our web shop. Notchnoi Prospekt's "MP3 Kollekciya", released by the Moscow label Moroz in November 2006, is a CD which collects 8 full-length albums from the group's early heyday (1985-1988) in a high-quality mp3 format. Half of these have been released only in their original cassette format ("Neznakomye lica", "Mikroby lyubvi", "Cveta pozolochennyh let" and "Kurorty Kavkaza"), while "Gumanitarnaya zhizn"/"Humanitarian Life", "Novye fiziki", "Demokratiya i disciplina" and "Kisloty"/"Asides" have been reissued in Russia on separate CD's.
"Xenoglossia 2" (Electroclub, Russia, 2006) by Alexei Borisov and KK. Null is the follow-up to the duo's "Xenoglossia" from 2003. While the first installment was a mail collaboration between Tokyo and Moscow, the new disc has been assembled from live recordings done on Xenoglossia's Russian tour in 2005.
