- Pure Tone Audiometry
CD Album 2003 | Silber 026 7 tracks, 45 minutes $12

Although the overall tone is consistent and dreamlike, the content within is as varied as DeRosa's personality, combining gentle lullabies with jagged atonalism, string trios with white noise guitars, and feverish percussion overtop sedate drones. |

- Amerse
Limited CD-R 1998 | silber 004 23 track, 63 minutes
This American band/artist as the information is minimal reflect this in the music which is appropriately minimal & experimental. Waves of distortion fed through reverb effects drone through the ether like a passing tank. These other worldly murmurs are in stark contrast to the sub Stooges riffs that are processed out of all recognition on some occasions. Structured tracks with some vocals are the shade to the more chaotic soundscapes, the pitch darkness. A mixture of a psychedelic feel set against a more extreme sound manipulation, like Pink Floyd meets Merzbow. ~ Bizarre magazine |
