Another blast from the past has been made available on all major online record stores and streaming services. White Stains’ The Somewhat Lost Horizon was originally released in the highly renowned Anckarström series and later on reissued by Dutch label Staalplaat. And now, finally, online, to appease many demands over the years. “White Stains (1987-1994), with main members Carl Abrahamsson and Thomas Tibert, were a seminal band that have influenced many generations of experimental musicians. Their work together with Throbbing Gristle- and Psychic TV-founder Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (At Stockholm 1990 and, as Cotton Ferox, Wordship 2004) is usually considered as the finest work by all involved. This particular album, The Somewhat Lost Horizon, contains film soundtracks and scores from the late 80s to early 90s, and is a fine example of their creativity and versatility both as composers and producers.” If you’d like to buy this album, please do so at...

A successful fundraiser for LUNACY
The Kickstarter campaign for my new film Lunacy reached its goal of 20.000 SEK on March 5th (and then some). Thanks, praise and love to all of you who supported this cinematic endeavour! The film will be edited throughout the summer for an autumn release. Thanks to the successful campaign, I can now scan a lot of archival super 8 material, which will be edited together with recently shot footage. The film will be a sequel-of-sorts to last year’s Sub Umbra Alarum Luna, and focusing on the moon in various aspects. It’ll be revolving around cut-ups read by Vanessa Sinclair, set to music by yours truly. Welcome to Lunacy – a trippy experience of/in/for all dimensions, super-novas and black holes. If you haven’t watched Sub Umbra yet, it can be remedied HERE! The Sub Umbra DVD can be bought HERE!
White Stains & Cotton Ferox revisited
I’ve recently made two compilations available online: White Stains’ Exploratorium and Cotton Ferox’ Defragmental. They were originally released on CD by Erototox Decodings (and these are still available HERE if you prefer a hard format) in 2007. The White Stains one focuses on ambient pieces and soundtracks and the Cotton Ferox one on tracks we made for various compilations, and some interesting remixes of our music. I know I’m partial, but I do feel they are both necessary albums for your collection and enjoyment. They are available via all major streaming services like Spotify, but also via iTunes and similar stores. If you want to support our musical and label endeavours, please buy these albums from Highbrow Lowlife. Thanks.
