Paxit - some good news and some not so good

So let's start with the good news: Paxit is now available on Bandcamp.

They've started adding some of their releases, and new materials will also be available soon.

This is in addition to Paxit's Spotify discography. 

And now for the bad news: some of the releases are still missing, so no full discography here.



For those not in the know, Paxit is a group that noise metal group, although for their first decade of existence, they had ten members for their live shows, some of them playing trumpet, saxophone, or just screaming into the void in costumes and makeup. They went from that to a doom, drone, sludge trio, and there have been numerous lineup changes, sound pivots, and so on.


Paxit - live




The lineup changes didn't hurt their passion, and even though they had frequent style changes, the core remained raw and crazy.
This is what they looked and sounded like for a hot moment around 2007, which is around seventeen years ago:









While this is somewhat expected for such a chaotic group, it is not the best news.
As we posted on social in the past - we're still looking for whatever's left of their old physical releases, those CDRs, those ZIP files on thumb drives, etc.
There are also some legal issues with obtaining their debut album, so things being spotty is business as usual.



To conclude: Paxit's new music coming up - is good. Paxit music lost to time - bad.
If you have any of those releases, please use our contact form to tell us all about it!
Seriously, if you have anything that could help us preserve their past music, please let us know.


Paxit - now on bandcamp

RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Volumes 3 & 4 - CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

IMPORTANT UPDATE : We're moving the deadline to December to give us some more time to prep and you some more times to finish your tracks! Greetings fellow sound aficionados! We are again inviting everyone to submit your materials for our 6 ways split series! Hot on the heels of  RZRecords SIX WAY SPLIT, Vol.1 and  RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Vol.2 , we are now looking for submissions for the 3rd and 4th installments. The theme we requested for the previous releases was "dark", and people submitted lots of stuff that just showed how conceptions change between people. We thought it was pretty awesome that the tracks we received were so different in style.  This time around, think "dark" but there are literally no limitations when it comes to musical themes or genres. Send whatever seems right, or whatever you want to share with the world. The rules are: no samples - the releases going to be submitted to the majority of streaming platforms and having copyright issue...

RZRecords SIX WAY SPLIT, Vol.1

Image
It brings us much joy to introduce the following release. Rzrecords SIX WAY SPLIT, Vol.1  the first in the series of what hopefully will become many. This is our way to bring artists together, spread the word, collaborate, and have fun. This is a purely online release, successfully spread like a virus across several streaming platforms.  A streaming format seemed right to us for the initial releases, with the thought of physical releases becoming a reality perhaps at a later point in time. We've already started conceptualizing the next releases in the series, so feel free to send in your materials! The participants in Volume.1 are: (in order of appearance) MettaUniverse The Crimson Rod MEZZUU gaop Sabixatzil Torture Prophet As always, we love to keep things interesting, so there's a mash-up of genres going on. While the color palette stays dark, the compilation travels between the industrial side of metal, free noise rock, noisy dark ambient sound art, dark avant...

gaop - Jar of Fears

Image
We have wonderful news, there's a brand new release from gaop! It's dark, it's jazzy, it's piano-lead dark ambient with sad undertones. A 47 minute long odyssey with a winter feel to it.  The aforementioned piano is accompanied by metallic percussion, woodwind shrieks and a generally brooding atmosphere created by layered effects. The sound is one of minimalism, but not in an uneventful way. The release is free to stream on most platforms, but also available for digital purchase on gaop's bandcamp . This release is another one in gaop's experimental celebrations of post-jazz and post-classical sounds, via a mesmerizing dark ambient, a contrast to his harsh noise releases but not venturing far from "noise" in general, it might be more user friendly, but the color palette is the same. The feedback, the humming drones hiding in the background, those are dead giveaways. The album is a hauntingly beautiful collection of sounds that delve into the depths of ...

RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Vol.2

Hot on the heels of Vol.1 it's out extreme pleasure to present:  RZRecords 6 WAY SPLIT, Vol.2 !!! We were lucky enough to be presented with enough materials for two back to back releases.  This made the process a bit longer because we had to find the right concept for the releases to work in a harmonious way, but this is far from a complaint, it was a pleasure to be trusted with the participants' art, and to come up with a result we are very proud of. As always, our goal is to find interesting collaboration, to do our tiny part in the promotion of artists you might have not heard of, and in the process to discover new music that excites us. This is yet again a purely online release, which is spread across several streaming platforms.  Feel free to share it anywhere, and look for other instances it on other platforms that might pop up later. The participants in Volume.1 are: (in order of appearance) ohrr Intro Vertic DEEP DOWN NishMa xPhin Mierdia Gene...
