Linekraft returns with “Iwatsuki”, a limited cassette release
Linekraft is a solo project of Masahiko Okubo, that takes noise and industrial back to its roots, mixing electronics with metal percussion and now he will drop a new cassette only release as a joint project of two Italian labels. Last year he played in Europe twice, first at the Will To Power:Electronics II festival in Mannheim, where he appeared both as a solo act and as a member of Grim (check the live report here) and then he returned in September to play at the XII Congresso Post Industriale in Bologna, as one half of the Cazzokraft duo. The latter event was organized by renowned local underground label, Old Europa Cafe and now, OEC, in association with SoundScape 713 (a label connected to Satanismo Calibro 9) will be putting out the new Linekraft material as a joint project. The cassette, titled Iwatsuki will come on a C46 tape in 58 hand numbered copies and will include six tracks recorded last year. Check the track listing and the cover below.
Besides this, Linekraft will also appear at this year’s edition of Dresden’s Tower Transmissions festival, more info about that at the festival’s fb event!
