New Dead Pilot Release To Feature The Doom Riot

Buckinghamshire's Dead Pilot Records will continue their fascination with exquisitely packaged limited Ambient/Drone releases by issuing The Doom Riot "Slow Estate Dreams"


"Slow Estate Dreams" is the work of the ever prolific Claus Haxholm, performing under his Doom Riot guise. Always working on new releases, here Claus presents us with what is probably his best piece of work yet.


From deep dense drones to harsh in the red noise to shimmering ambiance and beyond, with track titles such as "Driving Home at Night" and "Silence in the Heart" fitting with perfection to the soundscapes and noises that they present to us, Claus has made an album which captures those small but intense life moments of euphoria.


"Blue Light Cold as Regret" is a wonderfully layered and textured piece that really does reflect upon regret in such an otherworldy manner; recalling the shoegaze sound and pushing it's limits in a hazy, woozy and reflective wall of noise.


But noise isn't really the right word to use at all. One for fans of Belong, Glass Organ and Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, this has to be heard to be understood.


It should be noted, that the first 20 editions of this record, come with a bonus 3" disc of alternative material.


Pre-orders are now being taken.

Rockers & Assistants Heat Up Diddy's Summer

Always looking for the next big thing and someone to make sure his Ciroc Vodka is well mixed, Sean 'Diddy' Combs will be invading MTV and VH1's airwaves this summer to find a rock band and an assistant.
Diddy will be looking for an assistant via VH1 on the reality series I Want To Work For Diddy.
The show will track 13 finalists as they go through various emotional, physical and mental tasks to prove that they have what it takes to be the Bad Boy mogul's assistant.
Diddy's rock star search will take place on MTV via a Making The Band spin off titled Making the Rock Band.
I Want To Work For Diddy will air on August 4th at 9pm while a premiere date for Making The Rock Band has yet to be announced.
