HIV.27 _ Autoclav1.1 . Broken Beats for Broken Hearts CD // JAN 21 .2k8
» Among electronic musicians, there are few able to infuse a real human element into their compositions with the sincerity and conviction of Tony Young, aka Autoclav1.1. In his compositions, amid the scattered, paranoid breaks and steel-cold threads of industrial ambience, threading through the somber melodies and creaking IDM-infused spatters of noise, is a striking honesty and fragile intensity that is both unexpected and endlessly rewarding. It is this tense balance of synthetic, sterile soundscapes and scathing vulnerability that sets this project aside from most acts in the dark-IDM genre, and sets it well above most of its contemporaries.
In anticipation of the next full-length release, we are pleased to bring you Autoclav1.1's first CD release on Hive Records. Broken Beats for Broken Hearts is a collection of 14 remixed tracks from Autoclav1.1's first two CDs, You Are My All and More and Visitor Attractions, reworked and reinvented by some of the most acclaimed purveyors of modern dark electronics and hard industrial rhythm.

HIV.28 _ ESA . How Pure Would your Utopia be? CD // JAN 21 .2k8
» ESA return to Hive with a brand new album of corroded dark textures, mammoth swarming atmospheres, and industrial beats that collide with all the force of a falling freight-elevator. Chronicling an alternate history of the Fall from Eden, How Pure Would your Utopia be? spirals quickly into a dark, oppressive treatise on the price of sin and the frailty of withering hope. Through the course of the album, the sonic tension builds like a growing cloud of ink in water, turbulent groaning waves of noise and rhythm coalescing into a destructive storm of sound that is merciless both on the dancefloor and with more attentive listening. The evolution in ESA's sound from their first album, Devotion, Discipline and Denial, is unmistakable, taking huge leaps forward in terms of both production and songwriting. A new milestone for both ESA and Hive, How Pure Would your Utopia be? raises the bar yet again, displaying with firm resolve that uncompromised intensity and violent creativity are alive and well in the hard-industrial scene.
This enhanced CD features a video for the track Principals of a Paradisic Resolve, produced by Alternative Perspective, and was mastered by Brian Redmond at Fuzzbox.

HIV.29 _ Memmaker . How to Enlist in a Robot Uprising CD // JAN 21 .2k8
» Attention cadets, incoming transmission! Destruction is imminent: Memmaker are here to destroy all human eardrums and interface with your women, undermining earth society forever. Comprised of Guillaume Nadon and Yann Faussurier (of Iszoloscope), Memmaker have forged a rare and explosive compound of hard-trance, driving electro grooves, and immense industrial beats against which mankind is utterly defensless. Limbs will be shattered and tossed like straw as the full force of their unstoppable sonic barrage is unleashed upon humanity, animating those torn and smashed extremities in a violent whirl of fists and bodies as their complete takeover of your central nervous system compels you to MOVE. Bodies will be tossed on concussive tremors of bass, and the screams of ecstasy and resignation will drown in the impossibly infectious rhythms.
The only hope for survival is to assimilate into the robot ranks and take to the streets. You are all soldiers to the cause now, and the Uprising is in motion - the insatiable iron lust of your new mechanical rulers will be satisfied! This robotic takeover is a cooperative venture between Hive Records Global Noise Corporation and the Embodiment Records Woldwide Control Apparatus.
