ENJOY OUR LAST CENTURY ON EARTH - Active Mode of Inquiry

In summation of two years of active participation in live sound, Minimal Impact presents three new offerings of sceptical, self-referential harsh electronic cuts from Enjoy Our Last Century on Earth.

Formed in 2016 through a chance meeting in the institution, the duo have remained stalwart about their intention in negating monoculture. Included are two studio tracks, and a live demonstration recorded early 2018.

Edition of 40 on upcycled cassettes with xeroxed covers.

ECO TERROR - Power Ambient Fog Hallucinations

Melbourne’s Eco Terror melds rigorous H.N.W. practices with grandiose power electronic emissions in Power Ambient Fog Hallucinations. Completely maximal, these new recordings demonstrate the poetics of blown out amplification as an elegant observation of the anthropocene.

"On the 26th of June 2018, a thick fog materialised over the city of Melbourne and remained for several days. It was perceived as innocuous by many, and so, the populace of Melbourne wearily continued its midweek grind. However, it was revealed that the fog was actually particulate pollution caused by motor vehicles and industrial activity. The consequences of modern industry, once an exported phenomena, became momentarily tangible in the faces and lungs of an Australian population. Despite this, the grind continues indefinitely, as if nothing ever happened.."

This release marks Eco Terror’s first in several years, after initial plans for a cassette release in 2016 fell through. Minimal Impact is proud to present this edition of 32 upcycled cassettes with xeroxed jcards and labels.

POSIES - Posies

Reissue of POSIES self-titled tape from 2015. An exercise in post-industrial decay, the four recordings on each side are cold, left-of-field reminders of an enduring, archaic metonymy, realized through ritual, synthetic noise and sound collage. First widely produced run, dubbed with permission from original private edition of 5 to preserve a bonus cassette only track. Limited to 28 colour toner copies on pink jcard.
