Five songs in five minutes
So here we are with a continuing series from Silber.  Five songs in five minutes giving artists an opportunity & excuse to do something fun & different from their usual work while being challenged by constraints.  Limitations can be inspiring.
If you are a Spotify user, you can listen to the whole series here.
Anyway, more upcoming EPs from Remora, Small Life Form, Drekka, & more.

Somewhere between the soundtracks of John Carpenter & the songs with pop sensibility from horror anime is the musical work of Petridisch. Lament, a need for knowledge, a sense of peace, the desires of a reluctant monster heroine performed by a Vocaloid named Hatsune Miku. Enjoy five minutes from the future.

Fullness Off Lack - Shitty Heavens Fullness Off Lack - Shitty Heavens
MP3 EP 2017 | Silber 223
5 tracks, 5 minutes
Listen on Silber | Listen or Purchase on Bandcamp | Listen on Spotify


Based in Warsaw, Poland Fullness Off Lack is a solo project of Mat Gut (predominantly a guitarist, but he also sings & plays bass for FOL). The original concept of FOL was to make music that felt like a full shoegaze/post rock band despite the limitation of a single member, but now things have shifted to more ambient sides of the genre, leaning towards drones & soundscapes, which is how things land on Shitty Heavens. Vocals as a texture with words indecipherable, so the listener can make their own lyrics based on their own life experiences of rebellion & struggles & victory. Onward to the shitty heavens!

5 tracks, 5 minutes
Listen on Silber | Listen or Purchase on Bandcamp | Listen on Spotify


Shane de Leon (Miss Massive Snowflake) is back to Silber with his long time friend Jamie Smith (Danghead) & together they are Dusty Tears.  Recorded by Smith when de Leon was on a tour stop for Miss Massive Snowflake, Internet Hits really captures one of the great things the 5 in 5 series can do.  You have an afternoon of downtime as a musician on tour?  Hang out with a pal & make something.  Part punk, part lo-fi pop, & part experimental streams of consciousness, this pretty much captures how a mind works after long drives, sleeping in the van, & living the rock & roll daydream.

Bronze Eye + LD - Adventures In Love and Culture: ONCEABILITY Bronze Eye + LD - Adventures In Love and Culture: ONCEABILITY
MP3 EP 2016 | Silber 220
5 tracks, 5 minutes

At Silber we’re pretty excited about Adventures In Love and Culture: ONCEABILITY because it is conceptually pretty much everything we’re all about, especially with the 5in5 series. Two artists living a couple thousand miles away from each other who've never met in person with very different approaches to music meet through a release on Silber (LD’s 5in5 from last year - The Just-World Phenomenon) & end up working on a release on Silber. Pushing each other out of their comfort zones to make something neither would do alone. Electronics & chaos from Bronze Eye & crafted poetic lyrical precision from LD. A soundtrack to a dream where two worlds collide like a medieval minstrel busking on a space station.

Small Life Form - We Shall Be One Small Life Form - We Shall Be One
MP3 EP 2013 | Silber 145
5 tracks, 5 minutes

Small Life Form’s ‘We Shall Be One’ is the sound of biology gone astray. Unable to focus on melody or any form of progression it is reminiscent of tiny microorganisms. The surreal quality of these songs is quite disturbing at times. By using something so abstract it moves beyond mere ambience or noise into an entirely different field of sound. Elements within the sound itself reappear multiple times creating a fractured sense of theme. Through the process of evolution the sounds merge to build a larger greater creature.
~ Beach Sloth

Small Life Form returns with a feedback driven quest for sleep & the destruction of self.

MP3 EP 2013 | Silber 142

Dan West’s ‘Expression Compression’ is a joyous mess. The songs are long gone. Pieces are out of control. Noise is a large chunk of it. Loopy constructions on here are reminiscent of Royal Trux at their most crazed. Yes things are that unhinged. Melodies do actually exist, just barely able to cling onto the pseudo structure that holds these pieces together. Skronk is the best definition of this kind of sound.
~ Beach Sloth


Dan West came to us through his collaborations with Azalia Snail under the name LoveyDove. On Expression Compression he combines 1980s noise rock with Sun Ra styled jazz.
