Surprisingly, we're still somehow alive.

It's been quiet for a few months now. The Outsider Distribution is still in the baby's shoes, and all the upkeepers of the website have been working on different projects (including summer vacation, those lazy ass musicians) for the whole time. Now it's time to put things back on trail!
Firstly, we are happy to announce few new releases from our great artists, and some other news too. Now, the latest releases!


Begga(R): Antimacassar (TO0007)

Begga(R) has released his first EP called Antimacassar. Lasting approx. 41 minutes, Antimacassar takes its listeners into their own individual flight. Meter by meter, the flight will pass the clouds, reaching the orbit and eventually the space. Antimacassar includes four ambient/shoegaze-influenced tracks which the last one, Eilam, is over 20 minute long ambient work full of down-to-earth yet heavenly euphoria. The first track Therps Ikhore mixes complex IDM rhythms but the second track shares dreamful yet devastating shoegaze elements. The third track Clocking Å adds more clockwork like percussions and deep guitar layers. Antimacassar feels better during summer! Strongly recommended for fans of organic, warm and at some parts melodic atmospheres.

There's also a bonus remix of the track "Clocking Å" available in Soundcloud, check it out!




Vrum: The Symbols And Their Meanings EP (TO0008)


Once again, Vrum has changed its course to new tides of music. This time, our stunning one man band has made a math rock/indie-pop EP in the footsteps of Mew. Melancholic, massive, melodramatic and somewhat experimental 5 -song EP leaves you wordless (unless you are die-hard Mew-fanatic)! Glitched nintendos, complex riffs and sky-high, mellow vocals, if that's what you love, this EP is for you.

You can also find it from Spotify, along the Debut Album of Vrum!


These are the new official releases, enjoy! They all are for free download, of course. Unfortunately we've been continuously encountering problems with printing physical CDs, so temporarily we can't provide you any physical products, sorry. We are working hard on this, and will inform you when physical versions of releases will be available again. Stay tuned!



Back to happier news, we are happy to announce this one special piece of music!
Sami Jokinen, known from Vrum and RI:SA, started a new project called The Vault 72 Orchestra. It's practically a tribute to Thee Silver Mt. Zion, and the new main outlet of all his post-rock fantasies. The project is still in progress, but 3 amazing songs have seen the release in mikseri.net, go give them a try!






Also, we've tentatively made a deal with a new artist, Heijala. This finnish darkwave -artist has made music for many years already, but as he said: "nobody wants to release my music, so would you like to do that?" And we certainly want to! His cryptic, poetic finnish lyrics combined to beautiful synth walls are something you really can't miss.
Anyway, the actual release of the album is still somewhere in the near future, so stay tuned!
Check out Heijala @ Mikseri.net!

The debut album of Chalice For Your Loss is still in progress, mostly because of the CD-printing issues, and partly because the cream-ass-motherfucker-lead singer isn't happy with any of the proposed cover arts. But it will come, sooner or later!

MKDELTA has propably been the most active artist while we've been on summer vacation. This industrial-post-apocalyptic-crush group has been doing live shows, gathering fame and finishing up their upcoming debut album Otherness. You will certainly hear from these guys in future, they are aiming high, and road seems straight and clear! Already over 1,000 listeners in last.fm, wow!


Us, we are pariahs among the pure
We, are doubt among the true



So, that's all for now! Hope you all had a great summer, now it's time to get depressed and listen to some good, Outsider music, cheers!
