Cargo Records - Catalog

Since forming in 1997 Alog have been among Norway's leading performers of experimental electronic music. They are mainstays at Rune Grammofon and have been with the label since their debut album "Red Shift Swing" was released in 1999. Already a mature and original collection, their sound has since been developed through their second album, "Duck-Rabbit" (2001), and almost perfected with their previous album "Miniatures", which also won them a Norwegian Grammy for best electronica release in 2005. Some of the techniques that Alog invented for their "Miniatures" album have

Oren Ambarchi is an electronic guitarist and percussionist with longstanding interests in transcending conventional instrumental approaches. Born in Sydney, Australia, in 1969, he has been performing live since 1986. His work focuses mainly on the exploration of the guitar, "re-routing the instrument into a zone of alien abstraction where it's no longer easily identifiable as itself. Instead, it's a laboratory for extended sonic investigation". (The Wire, UK). His recent solo releases, Grapes from the estate, Suspension and Insulation (Touch, UK), have transcended the

Hinter ATELEIA verbirgt sich James Elliott aus Brooklyn. In seiner Musik kombiniert er einen fast durchscheinenden Puls mit tiefgründigem aquatischen Dröhnen und Melodien, die so subtil wie die Berührung eines Geistes sind. "Formal Sleep" ist weniger ozeanisch, als ein abgelegener Pool, in dem sich Flut und Ebbe abwechseln. In den Tidewellen sammelt sich einiges an Getier, das die Wellenaktivität auch in Zeiten des Niedrigwassers fortsetzt. Der Seewind trägt ein Echo von MY BLOODY VALENTINE heran und riecht nach psychedlischem Minimalismus, der sich mit den Richtlinien der

"Clones & False Prophets" is the latest chapter in the Myth of BADAWI, which now spans 8 years and 5 albums. Like the heritage of its creator, Raz Mesinai, the BADAWI saga bridges continents, musical styles and spiritual faiths into something sublime. On "Clones & False Prophets" Raz utilizes his connection to NYC's downtown improvisational music scene by drafting the following masters into his sonic army: Marc Ribot, Ben Perowsky, Doug Wieselman, Shahzad Ismaily & Carolyn "Honeychild" Coleman. This is easily the most varied and dynamic BADAWI release. There are elements

Greeting heretics, etherics, clones and False Prophets, Clones and False Prophets is the latest chapter in the Myth of Badawi, which now spans 8 years and 5 albums, but anyone who has listened to Badawi's music knows that it reaches far beyond its years. Like the heritage of its creator, Raz Mesinai, the Badawi saga bridges continents, musical styles and spiritual faiths into something sublime. Clones and False Prophets is easily the most varied and dynamic Badawi release. There are elements of all four previous albums but also some differences. Perhaps most significant is

Geir Jenssen alias BiIOSPHERE ist einer der führenden und beliebtesten Köpfe der Electronica - sein Hit "Novelty Waves" und seine Alben stehen neben den Werken von ORBITAL, THE ORB, FUTURE SOUND OF LONDON und APHEX TWIN ebenbürtig da. Dieses Album entstand als Gemeinschaftwerk mit Radio France - aus deren Archiven entlieh sich Jenssen eine Hörspieladaption von Jules Vernes "De la Terre à la Lune" ("Von der Erde zum Mond") und vertonte diese musikalisch als 74-minütige Sinphonie neu. Mit Brian Enos "Apollo"-Album wohl die größte Musik-Hommage an die Zeiten der bemannten

Widely regarded as one of Norwegian electronic music's most important artists, Biosphere's [Geir Jenssen] career spans nearly two decades, several albums, lots of remixes, various sound installations, commissions, soundtracks and even the odd Himalayan summit! You may recognise his work without knowing it, so frequently does it crop up on TV trailers and idents. In the early 1990s he was a pioneer of so-called 'Ambient Techno', but since then, he has refined his sound into something more magnetic and enduring.

Biosphere ist das Hauptprojekt des norwegischen Künstlers Geir Jenssen, der auf eine ansehnlich Discographie zurückblicken kann. "Microgravity" und "Patashnik", zwei weg- und stilbereitende Alben erschienen auf dem legendären R&S-Label, prägten in diesem Kontext neben Alben von APHEX TWIN, Carl Craig, SUN ELECTRIC und Ken Ishii den Begriff "Electronica" maßgeblich mit. "Shenzou" ist vor allem auch eine Hommage an Claude Debussy und dessen Einfluss auf die Musik des 20ten Jahrhunderts. SHENZHOU SPINDRIFT ANCIENT CAMPFIRE HEATLEAK HOUSESONTHEHILL TWOOCEANPLATEAU
