Install returns once again with three new releases, and a sale! Just in time for the holidays... First, the long-awaited but well-hidden VCV album "Round The Bend" has finally been pressed. Nine tracks of instrumental Jandek covers, officially approved by Corwood themselves, that are equally in the spirit of VCV's sound as well as Jandek's. These special pieces focus on recreating/reinterpreting the mood of Jandek's work, with tracks selected from various points in his oeuvre, all the way from a gospel-acoustic cover of "Alehouse Blues" from One Foot In The North, to a molten-heavy doomed out version of "The Electric End" from Lost Cause. A very eclectic group of songs but still cohesive in that Corwood way, and an affirmation of VCV's true roots and versatility as a band. There's really something here for everyone, no matter what camp you're from, SSR's or Corwood's. This album includes the sad and beautiful cover of "I'm Ready" which we consider to be one of VCV's defining moments. A must have for any fan of VCV, Jandek or improvisational music!
3753 Cruithne / Described as nine ambient recordings for nine forgotten planetary bodies. Using only guitars and a strict "no overdubs" rule, VCV certainly convey the cold depths of outer space here. The atmosphere drifts from minimal hum into periodic bursts of drone; as if the sun itself is quickly revealed before it obscures behind another asteroid. This album has constantly occupied my thoughts and risen to my “most listened to” works of recent times. Keep up the great work VCV!

After many collaborations, eDogm and Insubordinations netlabels decided
to share their first pages and mailing-lists, in an effort to promote
each other. Insubordinations also releases today a double live album
featuring Tlön5 and Diatribes, our respective bands.

cet album est l'histoire d'une amitié entre musiciens
et entre activistes de la scène netlabel.
Après de nombreuses rencontres, collaborations et
concerts ensemble, il paraissait logique de faire cette
sortie partagée, avec le duo piano/sax Tlön5, et le trio Diatribes
étendu à un 5tet. enregistré dans des lieux underground parisiens
(la miroiterie) et genevois (le clos voltaire), la musique plus que
jamais jouit de sa liberté et conquert les espaces jusqu'à l'implosion.
