Manufactura : Avulsion [2011]

Described by Karlos as “a dark ambient album with power electronics elements, it is my most selfish album”, it is set to be released on November 11, 2011, most likely one of Crunch Pod’s last releases before closing up shop.

Avulsion is the 7th studio album by Manufactura. With this new body of work, producer Karloz.M states the music on this album is intended for prayer, meditation, drug consumption, magick, remote viewing, deep relaxation, astral projection, lucid dreaming, healing and/or other states of consciousness and it is dedicated to the memory of COIL. Avulsion distinguishes itself from all other Manufactura albums in that the music strictly focuses on intricate and dynamic dark ambient soundscapes and atmospheric arrangements laced with elements of power electronics. It all lies between moments of unending darkness, glimpses of distant torture and vast uneasy calmness. The album features artwork by Alexander Froebel (www.pixelbreed.com) and it also includes 4 collaborative tracks between Travis Morgan (Rec|use / Black Meat), Shaun Frandsen (Sudden Death Over Time / Glis), Justin Cameron (Lexincrypt), Jeff Jeff Swearengin (Sleep Clinic) and Karloz.M. Through his latest opus, once again Manufactura surprises and astonishes with yet another release that will surely stir his many fans and critics alike. Ears, headphones and/or speakers, beware.

Manufactura : Psychogenic Fugue + A Damaged Symphony For Depraved Dementia N.2 [2008]

...this is in some ways indeed the most accessible release from Manufactura. But it is no less dark, probably darker even. Because of the more ‘accessible’ nature, this means it can be somewhat inaccessible for the powernoise only enthusiast. But Manufactura was never about powernoise only. The only part of that genre-title is the word ‘power’ that applies to all his albums, be it a powerful dance track or a powerful emotion in a quieter track.

This also bring that I really want to write something about the tracks, but as most Manufactura albums, this kind of ruins the element of surprise. Since one of the trademarks on Manufactura is diversity; with every track you don’t know which way it is heading towards. And even within the songs there are a lot of times sudden changesI do have favorites, but the album really works as a whole, so you’ll be listening from beginning to end every time. So take my word for it, if you like Manufactura, this release you must have. And if you never heard of Manufactura before, this is also a good place to start.
