CURRENT RELEASE (UK and elsewhere) :
Aura Anthropica's digital album 'Morketiden' - out on PHLOX (Baked Goods/Bleep/Ordis) :
Digi-sharp, tough electronic steppers from Austria thanks to the veteran producer Hans Platzgumer and his Aura Anthropica pseudonym, an alias that has lain dormant for over ten years. Revived and dropping on Phlox records, this is cold, strange and weirdly funky music on the downbeat... (bleep)
