Hello Folks,
Paul Lloyd wrote the following review for Conexion Bizarre about our first fich-art release Energetika.
Thanks a lot for that Paul!!!!!
Enjoy the review:


Oszillotom - Energetika
CD-R, Fich-Art, 2007
www.myspace.com/oszillotom



Oszillotom comprises of two collaborators; M "Kirk" Fuchs and Herby Althaus. Fuchs was a founder member of the band Config.sys but left in 2002 to pursue his own projects. Frustrated that he wasn't able to realise the music he heard in his head Fuchs signed up Althaus to help him. Out of this came their debut CDR entitled "Energetika" released by fich-art late in 2007.
Oszillotom is an interesting proposition, just when you think you have them pegged as ambient industrial experimentalists they throw everything up in the air within seconds. Their opening track, "Castor", comprises of several layers mixing all manner of fuzzy (but fairly restrained) distortion with metallic beats and buzz saw tones. They follow this with the deliberate metallic clangs and jittery electronic splutter of "Schweres Wasser". Up to that point there had been definite industrial noise elements to their music but the end result consisted of a dark mass of deep droning ambient noise or a slower, more menacing atmosphere that always maintains an air of tension throughout. It is at this point that the duo unleashes their full-on droning noise onslaught in the form of "Primaerwasserpumpe" and "Sekundaerkreislauf"; both of which are huge great chasms of deep heavily distorted layered drones, oscillating banks of high-pitched sound and heavy waves of crushing industrial beats. The outcome is huge and overwhelming but completely submersive and hypnotic.
They revert back to slightly more restrained power-noise for "Elektron" but even this is uncompromising and wonderfully executed. Then, just as quickly as it came, they revert back to the dark experimental ambient tones of "Schweres Wasser" with "Kalte Fusion". In a blink of an eye they are back to hard plodding bassy beats and disorienting swirls of ambient sound with "Reaktorblock 13". Confusing things further is the consistent monotone electro beat of the glitch enhanced "238U" followed by the toned down rhythmic noise of "Zerfallsrate", a track which threatens to unleash a massive torrent of vicious breaks but instead holds back to create a restrained ambient rhythmic noise hybrid. After this slightly more mellow interlude "Massendefekt" returns to the enormous throbbing bassy beats seen earlier although they are again not harsh but somewhat softer and more rounded with ghostly atmospheric swirls lingering in the background. It is at this point, as the album begins to draw to its close, that the duo throw in a militaristic noise track that is again slightly softer than some of the earlier tracks but still packs a punch. It is then left to "Halbwertszeit" to offer some dark ambience to set the scene for a remix by power noise protagonists Asche. The "Störfall" remix closes the disc in fine style with Andreas Schramm adding a new level of hard distorted chaos to turn it into a relentless addictive war machine of a track.
What starts out as an apparent industrial ambient experiment soon turns into a heavy power-noise rollercoaster ride. Oszillotom create music that is deep, distorted and chaotic but do so in a perfectly calculated way that results in a collection of superbly realised tracks. Showcasing a range of styles from tense, dark ambient through to heavy multi-layered drones and visiting several points between the two extremes, Oszillotom show there is more to their music than wonderfully executed industrial noise. Their music is sharp and carefully produced with the added bonus of the album being expertly mastered by Asche.

Ein dritter Teil. Eine Trilogie ist immer schwer zu vollenden, aber wir haben auch diesmal wieder konstruktiv gearbeitet. Aber wir heben es geschafft: Elektron ist on gegangen. Eine etwas andere Herangehensweise, aber dennoch kreatives Gebrumme. Naja, hört selbst rein und entscheidet, was ihr davon haltet. Ein Wort in eigener Sache: bewertet doch bitte die Tracks, die wir online stellen, das läßt uns nicht so im luftleeren Raum.

The third Part. A Triology is always difficult to finish, but we managed to work in a creative way. But we did it: Elektron is online. We did work in a different manner, but we think the outcome ist worth it. Listen and decide....
And please rate our online tracks. It is very importent for us.

Eine Woche ist vergangen und wir waren wieder fleissig: 2 neue Stücke sind zur Beurteilung freigegeben und wir haben unsere Freundesliste erweitern können. Aussderm hat unser extrem hochbezahltes Kreativteam wieder mal keine Kosten und Mühen gescheut, um eine visuelle Anreicherung der Einzelsongs zu ermöglichen.

One week has passed and we were quite busy: Two new song were released for expertising and we could expand our friendlist. Furthermore our creativity-team  did not go out of one's way to visually extend our sonic pieces of art.
