Crave - Damages

Absolutely bonkers rap single from CRAVE, lifted from Natural Sciences compilation "Flesh Renewed". 1990s psycho-rap. Grab it here.

nevada_jerky_gurl23 - Extraction

"Extraction" by NJG is his latest cut lifted off Natural Sciences' "Future Works VII" compilation, that announces/promotes artists that will appear on their upcoming projects. The track in question is an almost 6-minute long cyberpunk hip-hop instrumental, that's been injected with some witchy influences here and there. Makes me think of Ourobonic Plague's works, so if you're down with that futuristic beatmaking, this one's for you. Check it out here.

Cándido - La Muerte De Occidente

Cándido is an alias of Luis Schiebelers, musician and producer based in Buenos Aires who sharpened his teeth playing in the 90s punk bands Confort Supremo and Bhakti before moving onto electronic underground scene with synths and drum machines. Here is his latest album "La Muerte De Occidente", which sort of came out of nowhere and blew me away straight away. Released by the boundary-pushing label Natural Sciences, the album consists of eight dancefloor-ready jakbeat, EBM, new beat and house bangers. The production here is crisp as hell and will make you want to move to those beats, Buenos Aires must be burning right now. I know it just came out but it's already one of my fav albums of the year.

Birth Control - Färger

New Embryo issue from Natural Sciences is out now, including a limited 7" lathe cut with a first ever reissue of a minimal-wave acid group from the 80's tape scene Birth Control, and their single "Färger". Cop it here.

Beau Wanzer x Hieroglyphic Being - 4 Dysfunctional Psychotic Release & Sonic Reprogramming Purposes Only

60th release from Natural Sciences comes from two Chicago underground figureheads - Beau Wanzer and Hieroglyphic Being. While Beau delivers a minimal/industrial beat-hybrid with some looped bars thrown on top, HB provides a 14-minute long set of mutant, alien IDM drum patterns. Sick release with one of the best titles I've seen in a while.

Order the split here, and stream after the jump.

Black Zone Myth Chant - Decisions

Natural Sciences are back with the second volume of their Embro magazine, that includes a new album from the French underground icon Black Zone Myth Chant. The 10-track CD drips with eclectic and raw industrial influences that have an almost parasitic relationship with noise-rap beats, resulting in an outcome that feels both fractured and complete. BZMC seems well aware of the current trends in the electronic underground, twisting them as he pleases to achive an uncompromising result. For fans of Crave/Lieu Noir and Qebrus a must. As the label says, music for the freaks, by freaks.

"Decisions" comes with a 50 page Embro magazine #2, and can be ordered here. Stream the album below.

Embryo Issue #1

Absolutely sick project curated by Alex Hall from Natural Sciences. "Embryo" is a 54-page long black and white magazine dedicated to underground music, featuring interviews with Beau Wanzer, Hieroglyphic Being, Ki Jeal, Fumu and Margenrot among many others. The package also includes a 12" record with two deconstructed techno joints from Smpl Smpl, a A3 Poster and a digital mixtape from Sawf. Initiatives like this one get my full backing, you can buy Embryo here.

German Army - Endless Suburb

German Army is an enigmatic (well, sort of) duo out of California. Their back catalog is really huge, to a point that I can play a game 'name a label' and they most likely released something there. Their latest LP "Endless Suburb", which is also their debut on the cult Mancunian label Natural Sciences, brings twelve zoned out tracks to the table. Flawlessly blending psych-ambient and tribal synth music, the album is a trippy ride through their atmospheric world. If you're into Not For Fun, Hype Williams or Heroin In Tahiti this is an album worth checking out.

"Endless Suburb" comes out on February 25, you can pre-order vinyl here, and stream the whole thing below.
