Starting right now, Ad Noiseam and The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble will release every two weeks free downloadables extras, to accompany the release of this band's second full length album, the eagerly awaited "Here Be Dragons" (adn120).
The first of these extras take The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble to lands of dancing idols and fiery ladies, with "Palace Of The Tiger Women". Two audio tracks (co-written by TKDE and Kava Kon) and a video are now available for download and might calm down (or fire up) your excitement about "Here Be Dragons". Enjoy, spread the word, and click below for the video itself.
The first one had been posted a few weeks ago, and here comes a second trailer for Raoul Sinier's new album, "Tremens Industry". 1min 42s of multimedia trick and treat showcasing both the audio side of the album (its full length CD) as well as the visual one (its 100+ minutes DVD).
Ad Noiseam is hitting very hard in October, with nothing less than six full lengths album coming out at the same time. And mind you, there are all coming from well known pillars of the label: from the long awaited new albums by The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble and the luxury CD and DVD by Raoul Sinier to the exciting full ones by DJ Hidden and Broken Note, through strong new albums by Ad Noiseam veterans Detritus and Wilt.
Pre-orders are now taken for all of these albums, in their CD, vinyl and digital versions. And as usual, all pre-orders are getting a rebate, meaning that people seizing their chances now will not only get their fresh music delivery before everybody else, but alos a bit cheaper.

More TKDE news for today: the Russian director Andrey Stvolinsky has posted a beautiful video showing Moscow in crisp slow-motion, the whole thing enriched with a track from The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble's first album. The whole thing fits very well together, shows this city under a very uncommon light and, mind you, is here below for everybody to see:
The CD version of The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble's "Mutations EP" (adn105) has been repressed and is available again (as well as its vinyl and digital pendants). Those of you who haven't yet got their copies of TKDE's early 2009 releases should hurry up and enjoy this appetizer to the upcoming "Here Be Dragons" album .
Two videos created by the Spanish artist ID:Mora for tracks released on Ad Noiseam will be shown on top-of-the-crop screen / video installations pretty soon:
-the one for Bong-Ra's "Jo Bench" (taken from "Grindkrusher") will be shown as part of the El Mes Más Corto festival in Spain, starting from the 1st to the 23rd of October at the Balacio de Isla in Cáceres, and then going to five other Spanish cities and ending in Lisbon, Portugal.
-the one for Chevron's "Nigel Mansell" (taken from "Tuff Shite") will be projected onto the Civic Hall in Leeds, UK, using some kind of humonguous projection system from Lumen.
The videos are below. If you're in Spain, Lisbon or around Leeds, go check them on something much bigger than your computer screen, it will be worth it.
Well, we don't know (yet) about that above.
Anyway, while Ad Noiseam has been spurting out good old warm vinyl goodness over and over again (and has no intent on stopping), the label hasn't been shy of offering music on mp3. After all, your Technics has to cool down a bit some time.
The news of the day is that part of the Ad Noiseam catalog is now available through the young and friendly Zero Inch platform, and that the rest will come little by little in a near future. Give it a shot if mp3 are your thing. Besides Zero Inch you can also find Ad Noiseam material in digital format from such platforms as Digital Tunes, Juno, Beatport, some fruity behemoth and plenty of other places.
And of course, you can also get your mp3s from Ad Noiseam directly. And when your turntable get back in gear, we have the wax as well.
