Techno
Chicks (7:18)
Sharking (1:03)
Badgering (4:08)
Chicks (Helm remix) (5:56)
Review: Simon Pomery aka Blood Music has already put out an EP on Powell Diagonal label - a true lesson in contemporary power electronics and steely-eyed pseudo dance music - so we knew that we'd be getting our heads battered once more. The opener, "Chicks", is a harsh and abrasive tribal dance to Lucifer, its rumbling kicks bouncing off poisonous guitar riffs, whereas "Sharking" is all hollow and beatless, pushing forth the delays and effects in favour of the noise. On the flip, however, the aptly named "Badgering" spits brain-damaging layers of machine feedback from its underbelly, the only thing holding the track together being its utter violence. There's a gorgeous Helm remix on "Chicks", where the young Pan affiliate strips the tribalism down to industrial levels and fills the canvas with a generous portion of reverb. Hotly recommended!

Rare Earth Material
Infinite Process 1
Speak Like Violence
Infinite Process 2
Review: After two sterling bouts from Powell, the burgeoning Diagonal label turn their attention to London outfit Blood Music, led by Simon Pomery. With a distinct nod to the focused noise of Sonic Youth, and the breathless vocals of Thurston Moore to boot, Pomery is on fire on EP opener "Rare Earth Material", all throttling drums and huge chords thwacks with a cavernous quality to them. "Speak Like Violence" is a slightly less direct affair, taking a meandering course through shifting phases of squall and distortion but no less energetic en route.

Techno
Tapeworm
Acetone
Glass Tooth
Review: Diagonal Records continues its unstoppable run of form with the debut release of Bronze Teeth, a duo comprised of Factory Floor's Dominic Butler and Richard Smith, whose music under the L/F/D/M banner on Optimo Music and Clan Destine Trax seems similarly indebted to the heritage of Throbbing Gristle. Far from being a simple exercise in analogue fetishism however, the three-track O Unilateralis contains some of the most uncompromising tracks the label have put out to date, with the 12-minute centrepiece "Tapeworm" proving a punishing exercise in arcane synth improvisation that finds itself forming into a shambling piece of zombie techno. Both "Acetone" and "Glass Tooth" are more conventional in their attention to rhythm, but are no less likely to bend minds on the dancefloor, employing the kind of rhythms that bring Ike Yard to mind.

Murder The Masters (7:27)
Alien Existence (7:23)
Review: One can safely say that Powell's Diagonal label has grown and prospered a great deal in the last year or two. While the imprint was previously focussed on bringing forth his own chilling pseudo-techno jams, he's just gone and dropped a two-tracker by none other than Consumer Electronics, a lil' old band comprised of Russell Haswell, Philip Best and Sarah Froelich. Conceptual might be the wrong way to describe these jams, but they certainly have an artistic air about them, where "Murder The Masters", for example, chucks a steady 4/4 kick below a dark and sinister male monologue. The B-side, "Alien Existence" evolves it into a relatively more musical affair, where the same voice is now accompanied by a female counterpart and a further injection of drones and metallic sonics.

Review: Ren Schofield aka Container is back with his first release of 2016 and our favourite noise/techno fiend lands comfortably on Jaime Williams and Powell's ever-excellent Diagonal label. Title cut "Vegetation" sets the scene with a murky, swamped-out techno fuzz that sounds a little like the soundtrack to an apocalypse, a blur of the senses that is swiftly followed by the more militaristic beats of the equally fuzzy 'Soak" - what a tip! On the flip, "Funnel" waves its distorted bleeps through heavy kicks and snares, "Radiator" a certified Container head banger, and the final tune "Insulation" is a broken medley of bass, drums and pure grit. Sick.

Tap Dancing Goat Man (5:19)
Review: L/F/D/M man Richard Smith and former Factory Floor man Dom Butler further outline their fascination for all things oral and techno related with the arrival of their first Green Guns 12" for Diagonal. The pair have already been working together as Bronze Teeth and if you are looking for some element of stylistic distinction between the two projects it would be that Green Gums is an outlet for Butler and Smith to lay down some trackier productions. The Black Tongue EP opens in wonderfully frazzled style with "ZoZoMoMo" which sounds like it was a whole load of fun to produce but it's not all acid madness from Green Gums. The punky, rumbling "Dag" is actually quite reminiscent of Diagonal founder Powell's own productions whilst "Tap Dancing Goat Man" is gloopy, primordial electronics in the vein of Charles Manier.

Foxy
One Take Dub No Edit
Review: As 2014 has rolled on, Powell's Diagonal label has really gathered a sense of momentum and direction with its succession of releases. With the Juno office stereo still in recovery from the most excellent Shit & Shine LP Powder Horn, this new double pronged noise sermon from the masterful Russell Haswell only adds to their impressive year. Comprised of two 10-minute tracks, Double A is at times as bracing as anything else from the Haswell canon, with the scratched, spasmodic improvised sonics of lead track "Foxy" potentially capable of scaring Richard D James back into hiding. "One Take Dub No Edit" is described by Diagonal as a "flashback to a vital time when futurist Latin freestyle and industrial funk were the dancer's choice" and is perhaps the closest concession to the dancefloor from Haswell in some time. Killer artwork too!

Heavy Handed Sunset (Autechre Conformity version) (5:46)
Hardwax Flashback (Powell Cov megamix) (5:00)
Gas Attack (DJ Stingray Atropine mix) (5:49)
Review: After he dropped his 17-strong opus to Diagonal back in September, maverick noise botherer Russell Haswell gets bothered himself by a strong cast of other ne'erdowells from the outer reaches. The stars of the show are Autechre, who turn in something quite unusual for the occasion with a brutally reduced, interference reveling "Conformity Version" of "Heavy Handed Sunset". Label boss Powell brings some of his future-EBM stylings to his "Cov Megamix" of "Hardwax Flashback", while DJ Stingray does a fine and confrontational job in reworking "Gas Attack". It's a powerful collection of fringe sonic studies that manage to make experimentation lots of fun.

Special Long Version (feat Sue Tompkins - demo) (10:02)
Let Suffering Become You (2:46)
Review: We're not gonna lie when we say that we absolutely love Russell Haswell. The UK industrial misfit is among the few who can truly bring the heat in pretty much any situation he's in, or on any record he's unleashing his deathly twists of distortion on. Over recent years, he's struck up a winning partnership with Diagonal boss Powell, and together they've now racked up plenty of releases and DJ sets, both bashing out the hard gear on a constant basis. Haswell is back on Diagonal here, coming through with five harsh, penetrative tracks under the umbrella of Respondent. While none of these tunes could be classified as traditional techno, or even 'dance' music, they do contain enough movement to appeal to a very specific sort of DJ - the ones with the most cojones! This is classic Haswell material at its most cavernous. Recommended.

Need Of Angels (8:48)
Sleight Of Hand (5:23)
A Search Of New Realities (6:39)
Review: Having recently released Not Waving's industrial-influenced Animals LP, Powell and Jaime Williams' Diagonal imprint has clearly developed a taste for dystopian, post-industrial noise. In The Mouth Of The Wolf's eponymous debut brings together two notable flag-bearers for the darker side of electronic music, Berlin's Ancient Methods and Gordon "Cindytalk" Sharp. All three tracks are undeniably weighty, with angry, guitar-laden opener "Need Of Angels" - all clanking percussion hits, droning electronics and "up yours" attitude - coming on like the aural equivalent of a violent punch to the guts. There's a little more of a Microphonies-era Cabaret Voltaire feel about "Sleight Of Hand", while "A Search of New Realities" is refreshingly paranoid and claustrophobic.

Review: In advance of release, Diagonal and Elon Katz have been particularly mysterious when it comes to the contents of The Human Pet. Instead of the usual press release, they simply emailed journalists a bizarre list of "care instructions" for said mythical companion. Katz, who rose to prominence as part of Streetwalker and White Car, is something of a bombastic, electronic eccentric, and The Human Pet is ostensibly a pop album dragged through several hedges backwards. Expect impassioned, stylized vocals, twisted boogie synths, scattergun electronics, bizarre beats, breakcore style cut-up madness, and crusty special effects. Oh, and discernible nods to EBM, industrial and Autechre.

Review: After a string of EPs on labels like Important Records and PAN, it was inevitable Japan's Kouhei Matsunaga and Toshio Munehiro would end up on the Powell's Diagonal imprint - now a nest of the coldest in experimental, industrio-techno. There's a bit of everything on here, from the broken, percolating percussion of "218"; the gorgeous bassline supporting "845", and the freaky pseudo-acid of "Whispering Gallery". To finish things off, both literally and not, "234" is a noisy, shattered and uber distorted cut, whereas "The Spiral Of Babel" is a rolling, fast-paced drum shuffle fitting of any sci-fi flick. An excellent EP and a fine addition to the Diagonal dynasty.

Get Serious (5:04)
Review: Diagonal founders Oscar Powell and Jaime Williams have been throwing broad hints about releasing music from Not Waving on their label for some time, with the former Walls man also playing live at their events throughout the year. Formally announced via a superb press shot (seriously seek it out) Alessio Natalizia lands his Diagonal debut in rowdy fashion with this one track 12" Get Serious, ahead of a full album next year. There's been a sense of continual shift in sound across all of Natalizia's work as Not Waving, and he seems increasingly seduced by the idea of making people lose their shit on the dancefloor with this pummelling cut that is quite reminiscent of Doug Lee's An-I project. Get Involved!

Robotics
Review: The London-based Diagonal imprint launches with the sounds of label boss Powell, who calls in some UK techno royalty in the form of Regis to contribute an edit. The 12"s title (The Ongoing Significance Of Steel & Flesh) immediately suggests Regis and his bleak industrial take on techno are a significant influence on Powell, yet within the opening bars of A-Side such considerations are swept aside: here we have a producer wholly intent on carving his own distinctive sonic niche. On the title track that niche sounds like a lost Mute Records demo recorded in a dank Macclesfield garage, with the hollow drums looped and stripped back to their rawest form. The introduction of a distorted, crunchy bassline that precedes the track dropping out altogether for a brief moment is sumptuous! This shares the A-Side with the dread filled drone of "09", whose reverb-laden kick drum slowly emerges from the bleak landscape to create a sense of inescapable pregnant doom. Flip over for the Regis remix of "09", with clattering breakbeats pitched way down and buried beneath a hanging synth line; the brilliant dementia of "Robotics" rounds off this most excellent of releases with bizarre stop-start drum programming and a growling bassline.

Review: With the label at the peak of its powers after a breakthrough 2014, one of the final Diagonal releases sees material from Powell's excellent Club Music 12" treated and abused by the titan-esque figures of Ancient Methods and Richard H. Kirk. If you've seen Powell towering over some decks or heard his Melon Magic show on NTS it's likely you will recognise at least one of the four remixes here and it's hard to pick out one favourite. Ancient Methods goes all turbo-charged Nitzer Ebb on his opening Korpersaure91 remix of "Club Music" whilst the playfully juddering rhythms of the subsequent Pogo Im Saurebad effort should explain the title. On the flip Kirk boils down "So We Went Electric" to it's barest rhythmic elements on a fizzing main mix whilst the accompanying dub is full on crazy.

So We Went Electric
No U Turn
Maniac (feat Russell Haswell)
Review: ** Diagonal Repress ** Since Powell last appeared on his own Diagonal Records label back in 2012 with Body Music, his unique mulch of post-punk textures, industrial techno and jerky no wave beats has taken the world by storm, seeing releases on The Death of Rave and Mute's Liberation Technologies imprint. While Powell's sound to date has been characterised by frenetic, seizure-inducing rhythms, Club Music sees Powell bring things down to a more mixable tempo. "So We Went Electric" is the closest thing to straight techno he's made, though the frazzled textures sound like more Evol than Regis, while the pumped up monosynths that drive "No U Turn" are anchored by an underlying beat and guitar shreds that sound as if they could have come from an old Neptunes beat left to rust. Finally, the Russell Haswell collaboration "Maniac" is as crazed as its name suggests, a shrewd piece of contorted midtempo noise-funk which combines the raw power of both producers brilliantly.

Review:  ** Repress Alert!

Across the five tracks on Body Music, Powell further carves his own distinct sonic niche, drawing on a palette of sounds that includes drum patterns that operate outside standard rhythmic sense, odd vocal samples and textural repetition that burrows deep. The title track demonstrates this aptly, and along with tracks like the lolloping "Grand Street" could feasibly be very much at home on the Downwards DO series, while "Search" discards with percussive notions altogether, relying on droning sub bass experiments to draw you in.

Review: There's a tongue in cheek sensibility and an air of confrontation to much that James Donadio does as Prostitutes which made him more than suited to Powell's Diagonal label when the Cleveland artist debuted on the label last year. It's nice to see Donadio back with the Simple Minds-riffing Ecstasy, Crashing Beats & Fantasy and contributing one of the final Diagonal records of 2014, a year that's been most successful for both artist and label. Donadio has said in interviews Powell tries to encourage him to take a more explicit approach to the dancefloor and that's evident on this quartet of Prostitutes tracks. The curdling acid of "Dollars To DMs" and the faltering bleep electro of "Side Effects Of Living" are particularly potent Prostitutes productions!

Ooze (Silent Servant remix)
Review: ** Diagonal Repress ** The project of Nation and L.I.E.S. artist Beau Wanzer and White Car's Elon Katz, Streetwalker first appeared with the Ooze cassette on Catholic Tapes back in 2011, before releasing the excellent Future Fusion LP on Minimal Wave sister label Cititrax last year. Diagonal boss Powell has long hinted at the idea of a Streetwalker release on his label, so fans of not-paying-hiked-up-Discogs-prices-for-cassettes will be very happy to see the title track from that 2011 cassette pressed up loud on 12". Apparently recorded using a "a rare E-mu modular system and a home-built light-sensitive synthesiser", the primal iteration of Streetwalker shown on "Ooze" is more unhinged than their subsequent Cititrax LP and feels perfectly at home on the 12" format. There is also a rather fine rework from Silent Servant which adds haunting overtones that will be familiar to anyone that's caught the Jealous God founder live recently.

"U-Eff-O" rips out chapters from the Warp book with its sparse almost Autechre-like dynamic underpinned by toxic-levels of bulging sub and slo-mo chimes. Feeling risky?
