PANTSU SCUM Label Report: September 20, 2022

 So for awhile I was trying to get my PANTSU SCUM project on a bunch of different labels. During that period there was a lot of random labels that would spring up just to die shortly afterwards all the time, and there was a lot that I was planning on sending to that died before I could. With my PANTSU SCUM alias being back in action, thought would do a "label report" post of the labels the project has appeared on. Sadly, 9,001 random noise labels isn't much of a thing anymore, but I will still continue this conquest.

So here goes, the labels that PANTSU SCUM has appeared on as of 9/20/2022 (and also notes if these labels are now dead)

CDR Listening List 2: CDR - EVANGELION WORKS 0.0000000

 

Artist: CDR
Genres: Lolicore, Breakcore
Label: RDC Records
CAT#: none
Year: 2014 (actually on my wife Azusa's birthday)

Years ago CDR randomly mailed me a random Neon Genesis Evangelion OST CD that reeked of cigarette smoke, and this album always makes me think of that. EVANGELION WORKS 0.0000000 is a phenomenal album that just never gets old, I remember I listened to it on repeat when it first released, and have listened to it every few months since then. This album is full of amen loop heavy lolicore full of BGM sampling, I absolutely love BGM samples in lolicore (and used to do it a ton back in the day), so this album really hits a sweet spot for me. What I find really interesting about this album too is how some of the tunes remind me of old Western lolicore artists, like the beginning of Why Are You Stupid ? reminding me of Lolishit's Asuka Langley Soryu with looped Asuka samples and amens (and even sampling the same line, but in different languages), and The Beast's clustered mixing reminded me of some old blasted out LOLI RIPE stuff.

Another stand out to me too is the breakbeat part in King Of Boys Love, the breaks over the Evangelion piano just goes so hard, and I've always loved how CDR will mix a lot of slower breaks into his tunes (which has influenced my own works). Nigechadameda Acid is a really nice change of pace too, an unexpected acid tune that somehow fits perfectly, like how Squarepusher sometimes tosses in tunes like this into albums, really feels traditional to classic electronica. I Feel Sick totally kicks ass too, with all the medical beeps and *the scene* mixed with old-school-style Asuka voice sampling and constant amen breaks. That part in the middle too is such a nice build too despite just being one sound looped, it transitions so well into the more chaotic second half of the song, which is one of my favorite parts of this entire album. Album clears out with Omedetou, which basically feels like a much welcomed reprise of King Of The Hill, I mean, King Of Boys Love.

Overall, if you love CDR's amen heavy stuff, and the Evangelion OST, then this is a must listen. Also, I love the heavy Asuka sampling in this, I know CDR is a Rei guy, but I'm team Asuka all the way; its nice to be represented.

CDR Listening List 1: floppie / cdr - Psychedelic Trance Express Vol.110

 

Artists: floppie / CDR
Genre: Garage, Trance
Label: RDC Records
CAT#: none
Year: 2015

Ok, I wanted to commit to actually having Lolita Catacombs back, so already doing a post, and already starting the CDR listening list. I've been interested in doing these for quite sometime, and Okosan's one of my music really inspired me more to actually do this. This is probably a pretty random release to kick off the CDR listening list, but its short, only two tracks, so that's why I chose it. I listened to this back when it came out, and again a few years ago, but its been awhile.

The songs aren't actually marked, but I'm assuming this is like Psychedelic Trance Express Vol.108 (released on Tsundere Violence), where its floppie tracks, then CDR remixes. The release is only two tracks, and floppie kicks it off with a really nice techy garage trance tune. This track sounds a lot like it would be in a menu screen for a futuristic JRPG, and being a huge fan of OSTs, it totally slaps. CDR's remix of the song really plays up on the original's older sounding aspects, and their remix sounds like a love song to old trance records of the late 90s; especially with the tempo, minimal drums, structure, and heavy bassline focus. This isn't your typical CDR track, but really shows what the man is capable of and his wide range of influences.

I refuse to put ratings on music, so no ratings for listening lists, but this is a very nice single.

I Rise, From My Crypt, Covered In Ashes And Worms

 

Hey y'all/fuckers, guess this blog is going to go back to being active as a place for me to send out misc. thoughts out into the void and all that. I have decided to bring it back, and to also make this general update post.

I will likely continue the previous operations; updates on my releases, music news, Tsundere Violence stuff, events, show write-ups (now will include VRC and URL shows and not just IRL events), and more. Also, I never actually really did everything that I wanted to do with this blog in the past, such as nerding out about heavily specific topics, similar to Abra's blogs of olde. I know there's Twitter and stuff, but that text limit is a pain in the neck with how I actually like to write/communicate. I also think it would be fun to do some of those listening list things, I will just be doing these casually though, but I think some folks with large discographies that could be fun for me to do that with would be like, Napkin Terrorizer, CDR, Muslimgauze, and all of Tsundere Violence (obviously I heard all of TV and Napterro before, I even have "lost" stuff the public doesn't even knows exists, but would be fun to go back through it all and talk about it).

I also would like to eventually expand the music publication side of Lolita Catacombs into a private release black metal tape label as well; no digitals, extreme limitations, never sold to the public, anonymous artists/bands; would be quite fun I reckon. Anyways, yes, Lolita Catacombs is el back now I guess (inb4 dies again instantly lol).

This Week On Tsundere Violence (9/23/2019 - 9/29/2019)

My commentary on the release of this week~! Gold listings means its a favorite of mine for this week~

TV1743 - Violet Powder - Bloody Massacre
The first release of this week was by Violet Powder. This mini-album is a mix of their signature slow and rhythmic loli-goregrind sound and also horrorcore. The grind stuff is very nice and is unique for the genre, it doesn't sound like the typical slower side of goregrind. The horrorcore tracks on this are really nice, I love their rap stuff so I'm happy that they're releasing more of it. The vibes of these tracks vary and they feature very nice gore hop vocals, really amazing stuff. This is one of my favorites of the week~

TV1744 - ＨａｒｓｈＮｏｉｓｅＦａｃｔｏｒｙ™ - Untitled 01
ＨａｒｓｈＮｏｉｓｅＦａｃｔｏｒｙ™ at it again with another noise output, this is a newer artist to the label but they're very active~! This is a nice and dense noise track with a lot of crushing low frequencies. This is a really nice noise track~

TV1745 - Insectoid Girl - White Mantidian
They told me this is ghostwave, and I have no idea wtf ghostwave is. The mini-album is very downtempo and carries heavy IDM themes, it reminds me a lot of Phoenecia. The release has downtempo beats that range from IDM to more hip-hop inspired, with dark melodies, ghostly processed samples (?), and is really nice. Seriously, check this out if you like Phoenecia.

TV1746 - Acid Applejack - LadyBug
Acid Applejack delivered a nice hardstyle single this week. The single features very nice interludes between hardstyle portions full of a variety of nice sounds and melodies. This is the most "club friendly" release of the week

TV1747 - Antimatter Prism - 9 Seconds Noise For Cirno
Cirno is bae and this is 9 seconds of noise dedicated to her. The single is short but is very good, loud dense noise, good stuff. Pick it up when you're downloading other releases, its only 9 seconds~!

TV1748 - AGU! - Degenerate
Yessssssssssssss, more AGU!(!) AGU!'s stuff is really good, and I'm very excited to have this on the label. This is a mini-album full of dark breakcore, industrial tunes, dark ambient, and closes with a very nice noise track. The whole album has an incredibly oldschool sound and vibe to it. Loud breaks, dark atmospheres, low frequencies basslines making the tracks full, and nice rhythmic melodies making it all the more fun to listen to. The industrial tracks are also incredibly nice, really good stuff. The mini-album also uses dark ambient tracks to build bridges between songs, and its structurally very cool. I love the combo of dark ambient and breakcore on the same album, and this does it well~ This is my favorite of the week~
