Action stations! The submission response was overwhelming for East Anglia Noise Alliance Fundraiser Compilation Volume One. So much so this will be a double cassette release (also available as download). is currently compiling the tracks and mastering to even up the volume levels then dubbing will commence with help from . I’ll be pulling together the artwork for the physical and digital releases. Excited that Trench Art Noise has been trusted to put this out (Volume Two which we are guessing will follow at some point will be hosted by another local experimental D.I.Y label). I have submitted two unreleased tracks. Catch Baramuszczak at the Ipswich leg of the Suffolk Noise Alliance Weekender May 24th / 25th when (all being well) this release will be available. Be sure to follow where is doing a great job of keeping the account updated. Thanks so much to everyone involved with this ambitious release, it will be special. All profits will go to East Anglian Noise Alliance where we plan to continue to work on bigger and better things! - Cheers!

New project, introducing Baramuszczak.
Using my family name on my mum’s side and utilising sampled synthesiser parts, field recordings and live electronics, this pure harsh noise project will see the light of day in May this year. Baramuszczak will play as part of the Suffolk Noise Alliance Weekender and a track entitled ‘Foundation’ will appear on the Compilation Volume One scheduled for release the same weekend.
Italian Books will be revisited but for now Baramuszczak will be my main focus. Promoters hit me up to book. Cheers Jay.
