KILLBOT-Beep and Twitch Now Available


KILLBOT-Beep and Twitch
Released 11.19.2009
Waiting World Records 007

Product Description:
Killbot's (aka Daniel Sexton) Beep and Twitch is a lively and fantastic mixture of breakcore, drum-n-bass and gabber. This release manages to transcend the typical low-accessibility of breakcore, utilizing finesse instead of the all too predictable programming we have all grown so tired of. What sets Killbot apart from many of his peers is his embracement of the microphone. Processed vocals deliver an uncanny message of topics ranging from potty training, vampires to business suit entrepreneurship. If you haven't guessed by now, he's not taking himself too seriously allowing the listener to once again have fun with a new record while delving deep into a complex audio exercise.

M Peck's City Skies Performance



Below are the links to M. Peck's set at the City Skies concert series last weekend in Decatur, Georgia hosted by Jim Combs and Kavarna.

It was a great night for live music last Saturday in Decatur's Kavarna; located in somewhat of an oasis in the downtown area. A surprisingly large number of people were on hand and close to a hundred were tuned in on stillstream.com to listen in on the evening's performances.
Thank you to Jim for putting together a great night and having me down and thanks to the staff of Kavarna for their hospitality.

A Nod to Imprint

This following excerpt was recently posted on the Star's End Weekly Update.
"Imagine you are traveling at light speed inyour spaceshipsomewhere out atthe furthest reaches of the aural universe. Suddenly there is a malfunction and you must ditchit on a nearby deserted desert planet! Oh No! With little hope of rescue you are on your own for the foreseeable future. So what music would youwant to have with you while you are waiting to be found? STAR'S END asked this of avid listener and supporter Kathy Jeffries ofBaltimore, Maryland. Kathy came up with a very interesting Top Ten. Admiting to having a difficult time narrowing it down to just ten discs Kathy does include a few double CD sets in her list (no doubt this excess weight in her luggage led to the crash!) So let us see what Kathy will be listening to until Space Patrol comes by to pick her up!"

Top Ten Desert PlanetDiscs - Kathy Jeffries

Landmass by Steve Roach
Bestiary by Robert Rich
My Life in the Bush of Ghosts by Brian Eno & David Byrne

Thanks Kathy! We appreciate the support.

Hypnagogue Review on Beyond the Vaulting Sky

"Mahoney's work is very electronic in nature, urging technosqueals and transistobabble from his gear and bending them to his compositional will. They're eminently malleable in his hands, readily made into workable components for his dark-edged soundforms. But he's equally at home working the waveform of a softer ambient flow. That craftsmanship is in full effect on Beyond the Vaulting Sky..."

The Hideaway
Johnson City, TN
$5 Cover

Hooking up with the Killbot for what should be a great night of breakcore madness. Xrin Arms, en route from the far West is bringing his own styled madness and from what I've read/listened/watched online he puts on one hell of a show. Looking forward to this.

CD Baby Storefront Pages

Recently, CD Baby.com began to update, revamp and enhance their website which inevitably means downtime, bad codes and frustration for all parties involved. So if you've been experiencing any of the above attempting to browse WWR titles, I apologize. I've been assured these issues will be resolved swiftly and I have no reason to doubt them.
Obviously, any orders can still be made to us directly and there's plenty of material to be digested at the respective WWR Artists Reverbnation.com pages.

Peck's DYSMHA reviewed by Heathen Harvest

Artist: M.Peck
Title: Dysmha
Label: Chaotic Underworld
Genre: Dark Ambient/ Electronic/ Glitch
Track Listing:
01 Deathbed Memory
02 Ghost With No Conscious

M.Peck (also known as Michael Peck and Redfadesbeforeblue) is a composer of electronic and dark ambient soundscapes.  He’s been recording music with digital synthesizer, software applications and Theremin since 2000.  Already known to the electronic scene as a maestro of ominous dark ambient, he brings us Dysmha.

“Deathbed Memory” is a texture of ambient sounds woven with Theremins, guitar effects, cymbals and some truly ghost-like vocals.  It has what can best be described as a monumentally glacial mood.  This is definitely music to conjure up a sinister atmosphere.  Howling effects ascend and descend into a wasteland of eerie sounds.

“Ghost With Conscious”, while similar in sounds has a definite industrial slant to it.   My only dispute is that maybe it’s a fraction too alike, as one song seemed to end without a new one beginning. That being said, it is a cohesive piece in relation to “Deathbed Memory” with a continuation of menacing sonic journey.

A level of above par production must be mentioned.  In a word, it’s flawless.  M.Peck’s technical ability is about as close to perfection as a performer can come to.  That perfection can lean on the side of coldness, but maybe that was the point of the compositions within themselves.  After all how many of our memories are of the warm and fuzzy nature (found on the deathbed or not)?  Could the specter without awareness of their thoughts and actions be those around us or our own selves?  Maybe M. Peck is asking us for that answer.

Summer Solstice Stream

Earlier tonight, electro-music.com and stillstream.com embarked on an unusual homage to the Summer Solstice via internet. For 24 straight hours, they broadcasted live electronic music from musicians that spanned the entire globe ranging from dark ambient, berlin school, experimetnal to Chuck Improvosations, and more, live via the web.
WWR artists Mark Mahoney and M. Peck took up an hour slot from 8:00-9:00pm est. and delivered some great sonic gravy. Each generating contrasting sets of bio-ambience and cerebral interludes.
Thanks to both electro-music.com and stillstream.com for making this happen.
Check back soon for links to these two amazing sets!

Beyond the Vaulting Sky...reviewed in Sonic Curiosity

MARK MAHONEY: Beyond the Vaulting Sky (CD on Waiting World Records)

This release from 2009 offers 58 minutes of ambient electronic music.

Brooding atmospherics are seasoned by delicate electronic waves that lend the sky music an expansive milieu.

As an ambient foundation unfurls, pleasant electronics sigh and ripple with languid definition. Lavish hissing sweeps cascade through the mix. Deep tones resonate in tandem with high-end pitches, establishing a congenial counterbalance of effects. Flutish keyboards mingle with mechanized rainfall, evoking a winsome nostalgia for unexplored realms.

The presence of grittier enhancements introduce favorable substance to the ethereal flow. Glitchy chitterings, hints of percussive pitterings, sparkling diodes, gurgling chords--all of which provide the tuneage with delightful density. Mahoney has an alluring tendency to balance softness with body, resulting in an appealing robust sound that remains fragile and peaceful.

In some tracks, sounds are utilized in a percussive manner, bolstering the gently streaming melodies with rhythmic motivation. The tempos are amiable and mild, coaxing a moderate degree of animation to the ambience.

While these compositions are generally ambient in nature, the presence of more substantial embellishments elevate the music to contemporary status. The harmonic definition often exhibits enticing melodic traces, giving the music's contemplative character an entertaining spirit.

Peck's DYSMHA reviewed in Igloo Magazine

Here's a snippet of the recent review featured in Igloo Magazine.
"Definitely not one for those of delicate ambient sensibilities, Dysmha creeps malevolently into the "doombient" bag with the emphasis on the doom- rather than the (am)bient. DQ (Doom Quotient) is cranked down past the fuzz/buzz-point where you'd locate Fear Falls Burning, and past the gruzz/scuzz-point of Nadja, rendered namby-pambient by comparison. Nearest spirit-kin for these diseased slabs of creeping audio-efflatus would be in the sludge dungeons of Sunn O))). Walls of corrosive guitar, theremin and audio-scum are stirred together into a foul brew of purulent atmospheres of oppressive expressivity. That's opener, "Deathbed Memory." An excoriating pitch black exercise of asphyxiating dense guitar sludge dredged up from some Stygian depths, all toxic brimstone and bitter treacle, is its companion piece "Ghost with No Conscious," a harbinger of no less nihilist doom-gloom."
