Filed under: Releases

Wow, it’s been crazy days! For all those who have been wondering about the lack of news and releases – sorry folks! Four weeks ago, my baby son has been born, and I don’t feel back to normal 100% yet… I tried to keep the implications on 12rec. minimal, but some times some things have top priority, you know?

Anyway, following Nic Bommarito’s “Harp Fragments“, this is part II of our “America, the beautiful” series. Derrick Hart, what a guy! Don’t miss his EP. And stay tuned with 12rec. – in just two weeks, we are going to have our traditional Christmas release. Something MANY people have been waiting for…

New The Love Songs track on Audiotalaia Compilation

Netlabel Audiotalaia celebrates its 25. release with an excellent compilation:

We asked the artists to work under certain premises. We asked them to try to portray some concepts or ideas on those pieces. Those concepts were based on the idea of a circle or cycle around the world, a journey across countries and cultures. The artists have been working on those ideas from the sonic point of view.

All together the compilation becomes a journey across the world, a conjunction of spaces, structures and scapes from all over the world. All of them are a representation of the thoughts and interests of each artist and their own perspective of the world.

Playlist after the jump! (more…)

Yesterday, German Postrock outfit Milhaven did their first show selling the hot-red new album “Milhaven”. The record will be available as splendid book-format Audio CD from Valeot Records including three inlay cards plus a sticker.

Furthermore, and we are happy to tell you, it will be online for FREE DOWNLOAD with our very own 12rec. How does that sound, huh? Early January is the tentative release date. Expect big.

This weekend, the annual netlabel familymeeting takes place in Berlin. After last years incredible  festival in London, the Berlin edition seems to become even bigger, better and shinier! From  thursday until sunday there is a massive lineup of DJs and liveacts on three stages (with a way more diverse range of styles than the last time) backed up by a day program with lectures, discussions and a netaudio fair, where netlabels and netaudio projects can present themselves.
And INDEED your favourite netlabel geeks, Sven Swift and SimSullen will be there too! We will be around the whole time of the festival, on saturday we’ll have a booth at the netaudio fair and early on sunday morning Mr. Swift will team up with italian beat gigolo Filippo “Flip” Aldovini (of Zymogen fame) to represent their twisted hiphop outlet Error Broadcast with a neckbreaking DJ set… boyaka!

So, who else of you lovely people will be around? Hands up, so we can meet and say hi! We´re really looking forward to this weekend celebrating free music.
Expect some live coverage on our Twitterfeed.

Acoustic Firework Records is a new Netlabel from Germany. They are heading for “handmade” music, declaring war to Minimal and boring Ambient… Well, maybe that’s not too much of a good start to make friends with95% of the Netaudio scene. Still, you know what to expect. The label got its first release online, a compilation including new and unreleased muisc by Crepusculum and Derrick Hart, amongst others. THIS WAY



[12rec.058] Nic Bommarito – “Harp Fragments”

Folks! This Summer, many things happened at the 12rec. world headquarters – and not all is enjoyable. First of all: Hello and welcome back from Summer vacation. He start our fifth year (!) with the new record by our dear friend Nic Bommarito (Part I of the “America the Beautiful” series). Read on to learn about his magic new album Harp Fragments.

Next is the trouble with my printer, again. Apparently, the company changed the ink composition of the cartridges I’m using. Effect is that the ink dries up quite regularly and wracks the jets. Right know, I can’t deliver any CDRs, I’m terribly sorry. We’re re-thinking our whole CDR concept this very moment… stay tuned. 12rec.050, however, is still on sale.
