It's been a while NO=FI recordings didn't have out a rock'n'roll release. So here were now, happy to be back with a GREAT rock'n'roll album. 
WILDMEN is a duo and we love 'em: young motherfuckers, funny guys, the live show is wild as the name says... and they got such an amazing album out! 
Some songs reminds me of Black Flag (keep an eye on the drummer!), other stuff is more kind of Ty Segall and Black Lips style: guitar riffs able to be stocked in your mind for ages! 11 killer tracks you can play again and again and again...
They toured Europe in 2012, with two singles out - 20.000$ and I Spit On Your Graves - and after this came a split with the fantastic Capputtini I Lignu
Now we are glad to put out the cassette version of their debut album (LP out on Shit Music For Shit People).
They will be back on the road all around Europe in May: check 'em out!

you can listen a couple of songs

ENSEMBLE ECONOMIQUE / HEROIN IN TAHITI - split LP



ENSEMBLE ECONOMIQUE / HEROIN IN TAHITI

Split LP
NO027 / SOC14



Edition of 500
Black Vinyl
release date: 22nd / April / 2013



NO=FI Recordings / Sound Of Cobra
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°


Ensemble Economique / Heroin In Tahiti – Split 
It’s a well-known story: the bluesmen sold their souls at dusty crossroads back in the old days. Far less is known about a younger generation’s deal with the devil, their affinity towards dark forces and black magic. Their hypnagogic highway to hell and success goes en route Tahiti where souls no longer can be sold because they’re already lost in secret Voodoo rites. The music that springs from having experienced these horror trips is as seductive as Lisa Bonet drinking a little red rooster’s blood! Be warned: This is a one-way ticket, no refunds, no exorcism included.


Ensemble Economique strikes back with a great album, sounds and attitude head back to his earlyer recordings and the amazing "Psychical" (Not Not Fun, 2010): immediate, primal, raw... ace!


Second album out for the Heroin In Tahiti, after their first "Death Surf" LP (Boring Machines, 2012), which was considered a kind of manifesto of the "spaghetti wasteland" attitude, as told in a conversation between Simon Reynolds and Valerio Mattioli, and listed in the 50 best albums of 2012 by FACT Magazine. A great mix of synths, surf, drone, Morricone and some typical 'Italian vibe'.

GIANNI GIUBLENA ROSACROCE - La Mia Africa (cassette) out on NO=FI




GIANNI GIUBLENA ROSACROCE
La Mia Africa
cassette
NO026
out on Jan. the 26th

C26 - Green Cassette
Silkscreened cover by ARRACHE TOI UN OEIL
limited to 100 copies




Stefano Isaia's GIANNI GIUBLENA ROSACROCE is back with new recordings: the great first cassette, "La Piramide Di Sangue" released by Yerevan Tapes one year ago, laid the foundation of the kraut-psych rock ensemble LA PIRAMIDE DI SANGUE (with the "Tebe" LP out on Boring Machines / Sound Of Cobra). 

Now he's back with his solo project, few nice mates helping (Dedalo666, Vernon, Jena) and two Tuareg girls reading Isaia's poetries in fulfulde (fula language).
The setting of La Mia Africa is a psych mid-eastern landscape, desert at sunset, ancient temples and a far far shore...

GGR keeps us in these atmospheres with a mysterious clarinet, tenebrous acoustic guitars, dreamy voices talking in a language that sounds far but fascinating and simple rare percussions give us the beat for a walk on the sand dunes. Following this charming music, we'll find the oasis in this desert...

Artwork and silkscreened cover by our french friends ARRACHE TOI UN OEIL

Gianni Giublena Rosacroce : clarinet / marimba / drums and percussions 
Aissa Daouda : fulfulde (fula language) readings

EXPO 70 / ANCIENT OCEAN split LP


out now
co-produced by NO=FI Recordings and SOUND OF COBRA

EXPO'70 / ANCIENT OCEAN 
split LP


NO024 / SOC09

























500 copies
black vinyl
artwork by JUSTIN WRIGHT
Justin Wright / Expo 70 for this 12" keeps his psych drone space attitude mixed with kraut influences. Hanging the guitar at the wall in a corner, he recorded a great moog impro (using OPUS 3 and Realistic): a tranquil ambient soundtrack, dreamy as tangerine dream can be, perfect for a space journey, somewhere else near the stars, far far away from this earth we live on; a warm texture keeps us in vacuum place and no rythms come to bring us back to the reality. Listening to it, we thought there´s a magic place somewhere and we wanna find it and go there: but now, we just enjoy this 20mins Justin made for us.
The other side is for the brooklyn based musician John Bohannon aka ANCIENT OCEAN: hailing from the American South, he has howned a unique style of blissed-out  amibent/drone meets americana-rooted psychedelia. The spaceship we were on slowly turns into a submarine and from the outer space we quicly dive into a deep ocean made of guitar loops and samples, listening to it we feel lost in a mix of cold and warm currents and dark shadows swim all around. 
Nice to be here!

I first fell in love with èlg when I listened to his LP, Tout Plois, which was released on Kraak and later re-issued by S-S records in the US.
A few months later he showed up at my place whilst he was in Rome for a gig at DalVerme, and after hearing his live set that love became a passion!
One year later, here we are releasing his new record on cassette.
'In Coro' uses the same recipe as before: a weird mix of french pop, drones and cut-up, psyche folk and dreamy experimental sounds; electronics breaking on nightmare-ish voice samples, and rhythms which emerge and then succumb to pseudo ambient dilation. At times listening to it reminded me of Snakefinger in the mood for a chanson francias.
