Bleep

Dedicated trawlers of industrial music past, present and future Mannequin Records team up with selector Frank Brinkhuis of Trumpett Records to present a vast and vital collection of experimental industrial favourites from Dutch outfit Doxa Sinistra. Gathered from the group’s short lifespan between 1982 and 1988, Universo nevertheless showcases their wealth of boundary-redefining work within the genre, from the music concrete discordance of ‘Conversation A La Chaine’ to the pseudo-electro temporalities of ‘Putana Irriconoscibile Zuhalter Schnitt’. Along the way, we stop by harsh noise grooves like ‘Large Expanded Halls’ and noir-ish, swampy electronics on ‘The Other Stranger’.
