After several excursions through Europe, Africa and the United States SchnAAk has lived up and loves weird hip-hop beats, parallel comic-art universes and stylish African rhythms, though still working deep down in a factory of cosmic noise.
SchnAAk make fire from amplifiers… and they cook human flesh over it, nicely. The two with the four arms: two that stroke the wire, the other holding the wood.
On their new album “Wake up Colossus” remodeled instruments and weird sounds blend together in superorganic pop music focusing on way-out grooves, sounds and odd hooks. If we were to invent genres we might call this “Transcendentally Fertilized New Machinery Pop”.

Albumteaser

Za! release Megaflow, their new work after the acclaimed Macumba o Muerte (rated as one of the best albums of the XXI century by ROCKDELUX, the best Spanish indie magazine, and awarded best urban music album of 2009 by the Spanish Independent Labels Union).

After a year full of European shows, a US tour (incl. SXSW) and dozens of festivals and events to come this summer, the Barcelona duo has recorded 46 minutes of music where all styles are mixed and corrupt, to end up creating a new compact sound, experimental yet euphoric. Futuristic primitivism, Post-World Music…

If you want a preview, check this: Megaflow Bandcamp.

KAYO DOT (New York, Hydrahead) is one of the leading avantgarde-bands of this planet. They will come on tour in Europe the next weeks.

What do these news have to do with Discorporate?
Well, our little JOSEN (drummer of such bands like Schnaak, Tarentatec or Osis Krull) plays the drums in that band on this tour. Which is awesome, if you ask us. Besides that our little brothers and sisters of EINE WELT AUS HACK have booked parts of this nicelooking tour. Don’t miss this tremendous ensemble while they hit your town.

So far you can find our two labelsampler there FOR FREE, as well as the debut-EP of SCHNAAK and an EXCLUSIVE 25-track-chronology of THE ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB. Other records and rare stuff available soon.

For all you beautiful people who order things in our store here, please take this to heart:

Try to avoid using PAYPAL as a payment method. We don’t want to support this dubious company.

Yes, it’s because of Wikileaks. It’s your choice though. We still have the option of paying by PAYPAL but our advise is to use alternative methods.

Thank you.
