yes, we are a lazy bunch when it comes to writing news.
but we are not lazy when it comes to tell you about our new release.
last week, on april 23rd 2013, the documentary film INNERE BLUTUNGEN by
Anatol Bogendorfer (Valina) and Florian Sedmak (Kurort) premiered at the Crossing Europe Film Festival.
just a few hours before the premiere the records arrived (
flight13-duplicaton you rule!).
INT032 innere blutungen (soundtrack)
is a well-balanced musical trip from the origins
(as interpreted outside of any cliche by Martin Neureiter, Gosinger Geignmusi and Ischler Seitlpfeifer)
to the abstract and delicate electronic soundscapes by Andreas Kurz - with a short stop at the middle grounds:
a polyphonic "Jodler" for guitar by Florian Sedmak.

hey all, we're a lazy bunch when it comes to the news section of our website, hence this is so rarely updated even though we have a bunch of good news for you... shame on us!
in the next couple of weeks, we'll have a bunch of records in the INTERSTELLAR records bag:
→ INT030 PEACH PIT "music for three films"
→ INT031 TUMIDO "vakuum"
→ INT032 V/A "innere blutungen - soundtrack"
aaaand.... we're working hard on upcoming releases by LIGHTUNE.G, METALYCEE, NI and IN-KATA!
further, INTERSTELLAR records will be part of "Maja's Musik Markt" at Brut in Vienna on the weekend of April 26th to 28th, 2013.
"Maja's Musik Markt" is a market (or should we call it "DIY fair"?) with almost all independent labels from Austria (at least it looks like it) and each label
will have its own table (or "standl" as we call it in austria) and we will share ours with our friends of ROCK IS HELL and NOISE APPEAL Records. same time, same place, and actually a kind of fusion with the market is the "Viennese Soulfood Festival", with lots of bands from the INTERSTELLAR universe and beyond:
REGOLITH, MATIJA SCHELLANDER (of METALYCEE), FIRST FATAL KISS, BULBUL, ..... see you there!
unfortunately, this time we don't only have good news for you but also kinda bad ones.... our sublabel DILEMMA records will be on indefinite hiatus for personal reasons (let's hope it's a "break" rather then the end of it).
it's back catalog is still available, exclusively via the INTERSTELLAR mailorder.
no idea if DILEMMA will get going again some time soon, but we'll keep you updated!
more details on our upcoming releases.... soon!

november is almost the end of the year - that is, high time for the following two releases to be out as of (almost) now (see release dates below):
november 9th: int029 PEACH PIT "suspicious cargo", a first-time-on-vinyl and vinyl-only rerelease, originally released on Earwing Records in 1999. "suspicious cargo" is hardly known outside of croatia, hence we thought you guys miss out on that one as it was quite a big influence on the interstellar crew back then. limited to exactly 103 copies, some come colored, others not. get them exclusively from us (
mailorder) or from Dux Records Store (Graz), Moonlee Records (Slovenia), Guranje S Litice (Croatia), Friend of Mine Records (Japan) or directly from PEACH PIT themselves.
november 24th: int028 REFLECTOR "15" 4x7inch-Box , a very special and celebratory release for their 15th anniversary - 9 (old) songs, reinterpreted by REFLECTOR plus friends and long-time partners in crime, e.g. members of THE STRIGGLES, HELLA COMET, BULBUL, BUG, BROKEN.HEART.COLLECTOR, you name it. this album is a blast, with REFLECTOR's typical wall of sounds combined with their guests pushing the whole thing into a new dimension. But remaining still REFLECTOR. sounds good? yes.
As of other news, METALYCEE is still working on their new album, which is due to come some time next year. All of the METALYCEE guys and gal are further busy with various other projects and bands: Bernhard Breuer is touring and recording and releasing good stuff with TUMIDO and ELEKTRO GUZZI, Melita Jurisic has been casted for a role in "Mad Max - Fury Road" and is still filming in Namibia and Nik Hummer finished the short movie "Trespass" with Paul Wenninger, which is currently shown at the Viennale.
BULBUL is going to release a 7inch on Rock Is Hell (one of our favourite partners-in-crime) and are further working on a new album for 2013.
And finally, IN-KATA (ex-Quetzal) are going to release their new album "thanatopraxis" on november 12th. of course, it'll be available via our
mailorder. a beauty!

news - 12/01/11
attention all mailorder customers from the states: before ordering more than one record please contact us because of this:
due to new anti-terror laws that came into effect december 15th, all packages destined for the USA from Austria that weigh more than 499g have to be sent with EMS and not with regular post. cost of EMS is very high (at least 5 times higher as with regular post), this only temporary... we hope.
AND new arrivials in our mailorder section, very fine vinyl beauties from artists and labels like ?ALOS, ZEUS!, OCRILIM, LES SINGE BLANC and BARLAMUERTE and ROCK IS HELL.
