'Storm' is the featured album on the StillStream.com home page for the next month. A truly great release! See www.stillstream.com for details..

A new MP3 label from The Netherlands, using the advantages of blog pages. A great and even more simple way of starting a label, and great to by pass Myspace and such commercial nonsense. Just Not Normal is connected to a radio program called Not The Normal Shit Radio. I received a data CDR with three current releases. Mark, label boss (ho-hum), says he knows the artist Normal for about five years, but that the artist doesn't want to say much about himself. He's from the USA, and not, as I expected, Mark himself. Three pieces dealing with the issue of 'storm', all exactly twenty minutes in length. Perhaps its built from field recordings of a storm, I don't know. But they are fed through a bunch of computer plug ins which seem to work at random, but in a slow manner. Things never really unfold but move rather linear. It moves between certain parameters and then bounces back. Its quite nice music to work by. Not too demanding, but also not too ambient. Owing a bit to the work of Roland Kayn I thought. A fine break from the world of pure field recording, moving into a more musical area..
