New From Micronaut
Callisto
Callisto marks Chris Randall's fifth genre-spanning sojourn in to the back streets of electronic music under the Micronaut banner. Mostly up-tempo, partially eccentric, and definitely danceable,
Callisto is a distilled history of Micronaut in one album.

Pasiphae
Pasiphae features seven new IDM-influenced ass-shakers from Micronaut. Borrowing liberally from both the IDM and house genres,
Pasiphae is an exploration in to new territory for Micronaut, with much thicker textures and heavier beats than the usual fare, while still retaining the signature sound and song structures the band is known for.

BASIC features four new songs in the genre-spanning style that Micronaut is known for. With the avante-garde electronic pulse of "input" and "output," the acid dub of "miniscope," and the biting techno of "causality,"
BASIC has a little bit of something for everyone.
Manufactura v Micronaut
A stomping collection of noise beats and drones from KarloZ.M (Manufactura) and Chris Randall (Micronaut). Simultaneously haunting and abrasive, Manufactura v Micronaut will appeal to fans of both IDM and the underground noise scene.
Micronaut, the style-spanning instrumental project of former Sister Machine Gun frontman Chris Randall, draws from the deep tradition of the Chicago electronic music scene, while keeping a definite rock feel with the judicious use of guitars and traditional song structures, instead of the "change every eight measures" formula of most electronic acts. From the arid analog syncopation of the self-titled first album (1998), through the IDM-influenced progressive house and drum 'n' bass rhythms of
