Etched Traumas is more than happy to release 'Colony' by Martin Hoogeboom. 'Colony' is a soundscape work based on the sounds of ants. Martin says about 'Colony' : "It might be an ethical concern to fill an ant's nest with molten aluminum, to let it cool down, and to then dig it up. But this is the only way to get a building that looks like it has been designed by an alien architect. Recent studies have shown that ants regularly communicate with each other by sound. Most ants have a...

He transforms, relentlessly, curtails, beheads and sews sound works from different backgrounds and authors, providing the glue that comes from analog-digital instruments and audio processors and resulting in a "sound narration" split into parts.

Etched Traumas is proud of releasing the first EP of the wolfgirl liberation. 'The Lighthouse' realm consists of highly emotional strings arrangements, resonant sounds, brilliant use of field recordings and exploratory acoustic and electronic ambient instruments. There's an evolving hope in all tracks despite the obvious ominous ambience. For example in the track 'Planet Earth I Love You' a certain amount of time and effort are required before the fragmented rays of light can be visible and...

Etched Traumas is more than happy to release the first album of Greek trio N.U.T.E. titled 'Damage Room'. This album, which was produced in 2011, is full of sharp razorblade-like beats, floor filler breaks, and addictive distorted audio patterns. N.U.T.E, being the pioneers of the Greek electro breakbeat scene the last 20 years, crafted this album having a soft spot on the french electro genre. It took them over a year to finalize it and it is meant to be played at maximum volume!...

The Nobodisoundz project was born in 2008 (with a reference to the character of “Nobody “in Dead Man, a Jim Jarmusch film). The artist first started this sound-making project by cobbling together music samples, sounds, field recordings and the results of his fiddling with audio software. These sounds completed his works and added an atmosphere within and around his paintings, subsequent installations, and videos. Gradually, these sounds have gained a more and more important place and have...

“Utterings” is Lezet’s attempt at fake languages and sound poetry which should in this case lean toward the musical rather than the semantic. This offering is somewhat limited by content creator’s Indo-European language background and the phonetic peculiarities of his native language (Serbo-Croatian/ Croato-Serbian), but the texts and the readings should prove to be interesting and amusing enough in themselves.
