    Todd Pendu's Facebook profile

    I am Todd Brooks, better known as Todd Pendu. I am the creator of Pendu, Inc. + NY Eye & Ear Festival + Scorpio Cinema as well as a musician, writer, and visual artist. As musician, I play in chaos.CM.majik, Ghost Moth (with Daniel Carter), Abuse Report, Barkminer, and Feral Comb. I have published a book of collected poetic-texts entitled "Analekta: Semantic Texts" and am currently working on a non-fiction historical biography tentatively titled "Bouzingo Means Noise!" about a relatively obscure French literary collective from the 19th century that included some famous figures including Gerard de Nerval, Theophile Gautier, Petrus Borel, and others. I also write music reviews and features for the online magazine Foxy Digitalis.

About me:

We are a Nonprofit Organization that depends on generous individual support. Although it may appear looking at our website that we are doing very well, you may be surprised to discover that we are extremely underfunded and constantly under financial stress to continue. In order to be successful, Pendu Org needs your financial support to stay afloat. All proceeds go toward securing a future and funding future projects. We cannot survive without you. Everything we do comes out of pocket and out of love.

It is through support by individuals that we are able to maintain our mission. Artists who take risks often do so at their own expense which can be very limiting. The Pendu Organization raises funds to compensate artists to ensure that their vision can be fully realized. Please help out by donating whatever you feel is within your budget. Every contribution counts, large and small; even $5 can make a difference.

Donate $40 and to thank you, we'll send you a T-shirt plus a copy of the Getting Rid of the Glue Comp LP (Pendu Sound). Be sure to request shirt size in email. (add $10 for shipping if outside US)

    [S27-026] Nonima & theAudiologist - Almost Tomorrow
    (Glitch, Ambient, Downtempo, IDM)

    ..
    Click image to go to download page

    Almost Tomorrow is the third full length collaboration album from Section 27 Netlabel founders Tam Ferrans and Andrew Paterson, under their Nonima & theAudiologist guise. This time around the sound is more melodic, and has a definite feeling of a complete and more mature sound than heard on the previous LP's "Dystopian Battle Hymns" and "Ceremony After Amputation". If you are familiar with their individual projects you may even be in for a slight surprise, as the tracks are not as beat driven like before, but are more atmospheric and sound, well... "bigger". In its 75 minutes, Almost Tomorrow takes you on a trip from the digital rain-soaked cavernous scraping in "Thoughtograph", the ethereal beat jittering of "The Colour of Rain", intercepted transmissions from unknown places in "Com-Intercept", "Ganzfeld"s huge yet strangely insect-like beats until everything you knew comes crashing around you in "Almost Tomorrow". Burning pianos, glitched out soundscapes and intricately programmed beatplay, this may well be their best work to date. Consider it the soundtrack to a rainy overcast day, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.

    Out now on He Of The House Media

    HOTHCOMP001
    We'll Leave the Lights On


    He Of The House's very first (of many) compilation. Nineteen tracks from twenty artists, the end result of which is possibly one of the most diverse compilations I've ever heard. From soft spoken acoustic folk to raving, churning dirge tunes; from a noisy, industrial cover of a Sonic Youth song to oldschool punk from when it was still raw, fast, and unforgiving. Powerviolence peppers the grounds where spooked whispers whinny along, and the caustic words of a madman festering in his own mind play out over perpetually plucked guitar strings. A true honour it is to work with these amazing artists, and I do hope we can keep them coming back for years.

    Featuring: Zombie Battle Axe, xHaroldShitmanx, Kro & Jason "EVIL" Covelli, Nemesism, Ginny Greenteeth, Don't Move, Spiral Vertigo, Chachi On Acid, Mike Bruno, Autopia, Dead Kid Harvester, Jason "EVIL" Covelli, Karmakumulator, Chelsea Wolfe, RedSK vs. teh soup rebellion, Torturing Nurse, Sleepers, Flea McGruff

    Housed in handmade & handpainted paper jackets with individually original black tissue cutouts, enclosed with a button. Featuring full page insert artwork by Jason "EVIL" Covelli and a blurb about each band/artist from myself.
    Limited to 45 handnumbered copies.

    For more information, tracklisting, artwork, and information on future compilations, as well as a wealth of other fun tidbits, visit
    heofthehouse.com
    heofthehouse.com/compilation

    To order this compilation for only $8 (prices vary for out of country shipping), visit
