Check out the newest minor-release! Support further nonsense- compilations! 2005MAY07 A-CORE minorlabel & coldcoffeinaddict present: conceived in 2003, having lot's of fans & scene gossip since then, finally going to be released somewhen in late 2005, unbelievable! over 20 senseless versions of the good old tv theme you all know. childish breakcore, dumb idm & fucked up gabba tracks by the ones like bernd spring, brother b!, death sitcom, dr. combat, e.stonji, kalathuru, kid kozmoe, lxc, mimaku spldat, nexialist, pork four, rdr, sinebag, skeft, society suckers, tlic, tremor & nunina, wipeout. don't miss these on limited tape, cdr or top secret 7" edition. 2005JAN07   further exploration... another year is coming up and worldwide music will crash down further and further. maybe it will be dead within the next 12 months, in my heart it actually died in 2001 when the first minor vinyl came out. we all just waste our time by doing nothing but questionable low quality crap (and call it music), and i am afraid we will somehow go on with it. we were the raving generation. in our dreams the kids were united. now we're probably a million miles away from home. the heros are dead, and the friends will follow... stop expecting wonders. there won't be any revolution if you don't finally get up and start your own label&mailorder. yeah. 2005   NAUMBURG EP - REMIX DILEMMA in honor to the legendary worst minor-release so far (i mean, who can predict the future?!) i started a REMIX TRIP of the NAUMBURG EP's chart-smashers. anyone claiming the titel musician interested in nonsense-projects should contact me, and i will send out some 12 MByte Sample-Data for it may rock your brain. have a nice time de-constructing, re-arranging, distortioning and over-mixing...take part! 2004NOV12   MINOR012 out now! mandragora - frost session If you thought that you right now know all what Minor is about you'll be shocked...or very impressed! Out now there's another minor pearl on a more and more denied media with a maybe questioned sound. 90 minutes of one legendary live-session with pure emotional d'n'b-related electronica, warm and detailed, coating dark and stirring viola-melodies combined with direct broken rhythm patterns. Intense psychedelic night music for advanced Minor-audiences. Noiz you probably have every day. This is unique and limited to 51 copies! 2004AUG21   MINOR013 out now! myna - weltentänzer The last, and for sure the deepest part of the myna-trilogy is launched, featuring dark droning rumbling ambiences with well constructed noiz storms broken up by rhythmic patterns and hypnotic beats. Don't miss it! 2004JUN20   Improved Mailorder-Service! Minor now offers paypal though their fees should be worth a boycott. i am even not sure yet how this whole thing works, all i could experience is: ordering now becomes a very easy'n fast thing, only the shipping time will probably be the same annoying factor as before. however, you decide which way for paying is the easiest for you and i will, as ever, try my best to keep this tiny mailorder working! Just don't ask about the label! 2004MAY06   Post-address has changed!!! From now on Minor is waiting for your letters (orders, critics, gossip) at: minor-label c/o wiedemann weissenfelser str. 32 04229 leipzig 2004APR21   Tons of new sounds! all other ideas&plans have to wait, so be patient!

Get it!!! 2004FEB25   MINOR009 out now! the tleilaxe music machine - a flow of code Minor strikes back with a nice (and of course strictly handpacked) cdr full of glitchy and noizy sound-constructs, strictly for listening. 13 well balanced pieces of refreshing anti-music from Sunshine-California, far away from the German way of Noiz! Check it out in the Minor-Mailorder!!! 2004JAN11   Some new fine records hit the Minor-Mailorder Some are just in one/two pieces stock available, so be fast or regret it your whole lifetime! 2004JAN01   New year attack-plans! Looking back onto a year full of music-biz-annoyances Minor (yes, me!) plans to strike back in 2004. Most of the frequent visitors of these pages might have noticed that i wasn't able to fulfil my streetdates, anyway, that won't change in the new year. my good friend DBT will join the Minor-family with his Tleilaxu Music Machine in the next time on Minor009, all following releases will appear with some more months of delay! Anyway, thanks to all Minor-friends, the musicians and ESPECIALLY thanks to all listeners! Stay tuned (or whatever, but don't get lost!) oh, i forgot! if someone's not satisfied with this font&fontsize... sorry, but i can't help'em! Noise music shouldn't satisfy you, too! this is MINOR!
