Pan Sonic have a new album Oksastus forthcoming on Kvitnu
Yes you read that correctly – Pan Sonic have a new release coming out. The experimental and abstracted noise of duo Mika Vainio and Ilpo Väisänen is legendary, and this will be the first release in 3 years, following the fantastic Gravitoni album. All I know is that Oksastus will be available on vinyl (and CD) from Ukrainian experimental label – Kvitnu.
UPDATE – Kvitnu got in touch to clarify the following about Oksastus.
This is a live album recorded in 2009 in Kyiv, Ukraine. To be released in strictly limited edition. Not a Pan Sonic’s re-union.
Kvitnu are home to amongst others, Portuguese abstract technoid noise duo Sturqen. Their most recent release Neophobia a brutal and brilliant electronic signal attack on the ears.
The label also just released their first EP from French sound designer VNDL – Étoiles.
