Pale Noir closes

Pale Noir the brilliant DIY label, one of the first to emerge from the whole Witch House scene is closing! This was their message of parting: 


"Pale Noir is taking a very long break. We may or may not be back next year. Thanks for all your support and please know the DIY bizz is no easy one. It is a lot of hard work. Blood. Sweat. Tears. Passion. There is never a financial gain. It is very much a starving artist market. 
Please know the DIY labels do not make any profit. They spend their own hard earned money from their real jobs and sometimes will starve to help an artist out. This is real love and passion.  
For anyone who has ever bitched about Black Bvs Records Tundra Aural Sects Clan Destine Records Phantasma Disques Baku Shad-do and all the other DIY labels you need to try doing this yourself. All these ppl could be putting all their hard earned money into themselves but they give so many of you a chance because they truly care about you as an artist. Please support these labels. Without the support more and more of us will dwindle away.
Love to you all and THANK you from the bottom of my heart for finding an interest in PN and giving us a try. I found the most amazing group of artist with such sweet hearts. I love you all and I will always be your biggest fan. ♥ ♥"

o F F - Disinchanted Fairytale

Introspective Witch House artist o F F has a limited tape EP out with Clan Destine Records called Disenchanted Fairytale, its is also available as a digital EP from Recorder Records on Bandcamp here.

"Born as a broken heart mixing his love for slow dance music, RnB inspired borken beats and fragile and repetitive autotuned voices.
o F F throbs sharp beats, dusty melodies and melancholic fragrances into a luminescent grey sadness.
Disenchanted Fairytales vocodes introspective torments upon organic slomo lost tracks as 'Cinderella' realises the charming prince might not be real."

Clan Destine and Beko compilation

There is a new Clan Destine and Beko compilation out and available for free from Beko which is kinda called †HE SOUNDTRACK †O ¥R ORGASMIC DEMISE, NO†HING IS †RUE, EVER¥†HING IS PERMI††ED.

With an amazing Witch House line up of everyone from Fostercare, oFF, Mater Suspiria Vision, I†† and Modern Witch to Neo Folk stylings from King Dude, dark gothicness from Petra Schelm, dark Chillwave sounds from Skylines and much much more this is an amazing compilation and totally brilliant that its free! Check out these two videos below from oFF and Ela Orleans that accompany the release.

Warm Hands cold bloody aorta.

I like this band Warm Hands from Portland they have a bunch of stuff out on Clandestine Records and a new split cassette and zine with Petra Schelm coming soon. Its atmospheric post rock ambience and occultism, darkly gothic candle lit stuff, beautiful and spacey and interestingly guitar led and so slow and empty that it almost feels like the band are dissipating as you listen. Their blog is here.
