To subscibe this treaure it is best to state what Tom Ellard had to say:
„And here we have it - the ultimate produce of the new millennium. A box of vinyl discs with music from as much as thirty years ago. Could something express any less faith in the future? My guess is that we seek to capture some 'purity' that has since been encrusted with quibbles. It's a hopeless fetish that leads in an ever contracting spiral - music is born continuously and defies attempts to capture it in decorative tombs. Nevertheless. We have here a very decorative tomb. Music made from 1977 onwards by people who would be identified for a time as 'Severed Heads'. Much is by Richard Fielding who left in 1982. Some by Andrew Wright, gone in 1980. Some by Bradbury, left in 1985, Deering also.
In each case the music has been taken from the best copy, cleaned only as much as needed and organised to fit onto long playing vinyl. It is ancient, funny, half arsed, crinkly, clever and juvenile. It was compiled by a prick. All proceeds will be spent by Fielding on horse races. Buy two because they will wear out.“

After more than 12 months of planing and organising this Momumental release is finally realised. VOD is proud to present a limited 800 copies Wooden-Box-Set that documents the first 5 years and the first stage of the band.

If you are a long time collector of 80s indie minimal synth looking to fill out your catalog
or a novice interested in starting one up, there is no better place to start than with
EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS.
A synth duo from Philadelphia/Northern Delaware USA, members Mark Wilde and
Michael Gross produced 8-track gear recordings, then had their music pressed to vinyl.
In 1984 they released the 3 song 12" EP "Glowing in the Dark", 2000 copies.
"Glowing" proved irresistible to DJs and became a 1985 dance club chart breakthrough.
Today, many DJs and collectors consider it a "classic" synth record.
2 years before "Glowing" they released a 10 song vinyl LP titled "PROTOTYPE", 300 copies.
PROTOTYPE remained an obscure record until minimal synth collectors caught wind of
it in the late 90s. PROTOTYPE became a high priced bidding item whenever the rare vinyl
showed up on E-Bay. It seems EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS had again produced what
many collectors consider a "classic" 80s minimal synth record.
VOD is now pleased to announce the re-issue of PROTOTYPE to high quality vinyl.
Re-mastered by VOD from the original 1/4" master tapes, this re-issue has improved
sonic quality not found on the original 1982 pressings. Own it now, experience it for yourself.
PROTOTYPE will be LP-1 side A+B of the VOD double record set.
GARAGE TRACKS, LP-2 of the EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS record set will hopefully
become yet another classic piece of synthesizer vinyl.
A "garage track" is described by M. Gross as a primitive to semi-pro sound recording not necessarily intended for public distribution.
Originally intended or not, VOD now offer them to the synth loving public.
GARAGE TRACKS side-A contains 5 unreleased songs from 1985, all synth-drum machine,
again produced with 8-track gear this time in a band spare bedroom.
Anyone familiar with the band can expect more EXPERIMENTAL PRODUCTS brilliance.
GARAGE TRACKS side-B contains six songs from a 1983 LIVE performance.
There are live versions of 4 songs from PROTOTYPE, an unreleased song, and the song
Mannequin from the "Glowing" EP.
Members will furthermore recieve a 3-Track-7“ with more Garage Tracks recorded during the Prototype recording sessions from 1981 and believe me, when listening to the Track „Einstein“ it will make your heart jump on excitement. Believe me. I guess I listened to it already 100 times!
The band is known for their mystical, almost martial and epic sounds, which can easily upset the listeners emotions. Nothing for weak nerves...
VOD and TB compiled a perfect supplement to the Lp Hypnotischer Existenzialismus.
The double Lp set is covering the very early musical period of the band. It includes outtakes, tape-contributions, a live performance from LA, as well as a Berlin Atonal-performance.
Attached you will also find a DVD with disturbing footage of early Video clips, a short Film as well as some other rare live Video clips from New York City.
The release comes in a silk-screened Army-Boot-Bag and members will receive a Bonus 7”.
Same members in both groups. The three members are old fans of the analog sound, old machines and the way they behave, and don´t behave. Perfect and fascinating mixture between old-school-industrial, avantgardisch NWW-like-Style and early Minimalsounds as Clock DVA and Cabaret Voltaire.
Two editions available with 199 copies each.398 in total.
All LP’s are handmade all different in pure old school style.
Inyurmania (IYM): Experiments with tapeloops, feedbacks, raw analog synthersizer sounds and screaming vocals. All recorded ln their studio. A collaboration between man and machine.
Goz Mongo Alliance: Explores the attitude of rhythmic industrial funk. Rhythm-boxes, synthersizers, bass and guitar.is the fundamental core. Structured patterns and pure analog sound.
All tracks are from 1979-1988 -- including the mythicals sessions of the "Museum-ep", the "Rock Noire" mini-album, as well as tracks from "ADN'La Catastrophe" and others rarities. Members will recieve a 4 Track 7“ Bonus that includes the hits Deutsch Napalm and Panzer Kardinal as well as Bruenhild and Sehnsucht
In parallel to its official vinyl/CD discography, OPERA MULTI STEEL recorded during the eighties several K7 tapes including many unreleased tracks : « Autres Appels » (1985), « Eternelle Tourmente » (1986), « OMS/Modern Art » (1987), « Je regarde la Pluie »(1987),« Regret qui s’écaille » (1987) . Those K7's were home-duplicated in those times in very limited quantities (between 100 and 300 copies).
This 3LP Box set is an anthology of the tracks featured on those different 80’s K7 tapes (originally 2-track reel tape recorded) that were the seeds of some songs rearranged or rerecorded later and even contains some demo versions of never-released songs. Those different limited edition tapes are nowadays deleted and considered as real collector’s items.

The group has undergone several mutations since these early recordings and continued into 21st century as a solo project by Nigel Ayers. Caroline K left the group in 1984 and produced one solo album before adopting a more private life. She remained a good friend and lived in England, Sri Lanka, and finally in Italy. She married Danny Ayers in 2001. While the edit of this collection was being assembled, she took ill with leukaemia and died during hospital treatment a few days later. Caroline’s distinctively moody electronics, vocals and bass guitar feature strongly on these albums. We offer this box set as a tribute to her life and work.
Kevin also runs the cassette-culture-Forum (http://cassetteculture.net/).
Both met at the TG/Cabaret Voltaire-Gig in 1978 and decided to join forces and make their own kind of music. The result of those session recordings between October 1980 and Augsut 1981 has been astonishing and a classic of its genre.
This classic Tape-Release is in line with the best Throbbing Gristle releases and as serious collector / listener to TG you just can’t miss this classic release!
Excellent minimal and drone recording of Hermann Nitsch performed on the Brucknerorgel linz as well as at the Organ at his private Castle in Prinzendorf at the Zaya, Austria, both in 1986. The original has been released on edition hundertmark in a strictly limition edition (200 copies), absolut famous recording. First 150 copies (plus the 250 member-copies) will also be accompanied with a DVD of the famous concert.
