Oblio trip the dark light fantastic with a second 12″, “Principle of Discovery”, seemingly themed to cosmic construction theory if the ’70s distressed archi-horror cover art is anything to go by (nb, its not depicted above). Its no secret that this is the more introverted space-age alter-ego of the princes of porn-disco, In Flagranti, but these are not edits, they are all genuine sample-free blasts of musical space-dust, crafted in the mineral mines of Mars and rocketed to empty cold regions of space where they spiral mesmerizing and endless.

Oblio – Faculty Of Reincarnation

‘Faculty of Reincarnation’ is the fractured story of a troupe of lost warriors encased in solidified mists that permeate through a wailing forest of black skeletal trees on an unexplored alien world. This untimely asphyxiated death is glimpsed through a silvery flaking mirror with a tarnished frame of lavishly gilded gold, by a group of princesses with tears in their eyes and aching torrents of lost love filling their broken hearts.

Richard Gateaux carries the torch for grindhouse horror OST disco with the “Time Passing” 12″, temporarily handed over by Zombi, while they pursue ghosts in the dark shadows of the African astral plains on new LP, “Spirit Animal”.

Richard Gateaux – Free To Touch

Lets travel to LA, where from the air conditioned and leather seated comfort of our flash Ferrari we can spy the opening chase of “Terror Road 2 – The Bitch Must Die“. The black shrouded killer is poised to run down his next cosmopolitan lady of the night in his dusty black Corvette C3, engine revved, tires screeching, blood of past slayings dried to the curve of the bonnet in a hideous scarlet webbing. He rushes forward across the poorly lit road, a cracking thud, a strangled scream and he’s off into the streaming rain.

Oh by the way, we are happening in London next month. Note that the guests aren’t Gary Gygax and Bobby Orlando, that’s the genres we are playing. The hand in the image belongs to Cassandra Nova, professor Xavier’s evil amniotic twin in Grant Morrison’s New X-Men. A new paradigm for Finger Puppetry, heh.
