Review by: Stephen Beck Fey

dym technocratic deception  This review honestly feels kind of redundant. I mean, The Technocratic Deception was already the OontzCast album of the month for January 2013. If that’s not recommendation enough for you, you may very well be beyond help. That said, I think it bears repeating that this album is pretty wonderful. DYM’s signature Aggrotech/Breakcore turducken has never sounded better than it does here. (more…)

:Music Review: Various Artists – Electronic Saviors Volume II Recurrence

Various Artists – Electronic Saviors Volume II Recurrence
Release Date: May 8, 2012
Label: Metropolis Records
Website: electronicsaviors.com

Review by: DeVico

Jim Semonik is back with the second compilation installment of Electronic Saviors and this time, the ceiling has been lifted to become an even huger and massive compilation. With proceeds going to at least two charities: Gilda’s Club/Cancer Support Community and The Bone Marrow Foundation you get the chance to help others and build your music library. ES Volume 1 was a sold out product on Metropolis Records and with good fortune, I am hoping they have the same scenario with ES Volume 2. The premium edition of ES 2 comes with six CD’s and two digital discs. This compilation clocks at 142 tracks with over 10 hours of play. Seriously, this is a juggernaut of music. (more…)

Distorted Memory – Archive (1999-2003) / Hand of God (Remixes)
Label: NoiTekk
Release Date: October 7, 2011
Website: distortedmemory.com
Review by: Michael Faries

Back in October of last year, Distorted Memory released their NoiTekk-exclusive, double album Archive (1999-2003) / Hand of God (Remixes). Emanating from the Canadian city of Winnipeg and the mind of Jeremy Pillipow, Distorted Memory gives their out-of-print EP Left Alone to Die and some older unreleased tracks a new chance at life, while also providing a vast collection of remixes of the 2011 song “Hand of God”.

COMA Music Magazine Fundraiser 2012

So what is this fundraiser all about? Well, we have shot all our live footage with the same $200 camera for the last five years and now that camera is starting to fail. This presents the perfect opportunity to upgrade to hi def for more awesome videos and the camera I have found? Holy shit is it perfect for live footage.

In addition to that, US Airways busted the main lens I shoot live photography with when we went to Cyber Genetic Winter Fest so that needs to be replaced as well. So that, in a nutshell is what we are trying to accomplish here. Take a look at the incentives and be ready because it goes live at 10am MST March 14th, 2012.

:CD Review: DYM – The Swarm

DYM – The Swarm
Release Date: February 25, 2011
Label: NoiTekk/COP International/Deathwatch Asia
Website: www.enterdym.com

Review by: Michael Faries

Canadian group DYM(or Death to Your Modern, for long) released The Swarm earlier this year.  This new release contains six all-new tracks, and their whole previous album, 2008′s The Invilid, remixed.  That makes for 16 songs to sift through with no remix repeats, unlike most remix albums.  If you aren’t familiar with DYM’s sound, it’s EBM with harsh vocals swathed in Breakcore.  If you aren’t familiar with Breakcore, go check out Venetian Snares.  Then come back here before your head explodes, comforted by the knowledge that DYM’s form of Breakcore is a lot less out of control.  In fact-and, perhaps, surprisingly-it’s damn near perfection in concert with EBM.
