on the edge between electronics and acoustic. The four tracks of their debut album are slowly developing and re-shaping, from free form drums to ambient textures. Hypnotic and repetitive elements are put in contrast with nervous percussions and abrasive sounds, with atypical double-bass feedback or noise in the background

But Alberto Boccardi is not a simple electronic musician because he is an aerospace engineer who also gratueted at Conservatorio di musica “Giuseppe Verdi” di Milano, and played bass and drums since his 14s in punk, hardcore and crossover bands.

And Paolo Mongardi is not a simple heavy rock drummer because he plays in Fuzz Orchestra – a cinematic rock band like Mr. Bungle or Secret Chief 3 -,  a math rock band DEUS! and a drone one Fulkanelli.

And of course Antonio Bertoni is not a simple bass player because he is a double bass player. And also the record label Boring Machines is not simple one.

The label Boring Machines celebrate its 10th birthday this year. The anniversary album is released on LP in only ten copies. Original unreleased music, not available elsewhere. No information about the artist name. No titles, no graphics. No digital versions, no previews. 10 numbered copies. After 10 years, we feel you should trust our tastes. 3 remaining.

Audacity is rather a power pop band than a garage punk. But in their early times they were a real great garage punk band. Their lost and found first recordings from 2007 are out now.

„Juva Jive” 10″ EP and digital on Cut-Rate, cassette on Burger Records (USA). The best Audacity album forever.

Italian psychedelic rock band La Piramide di Sangue loves you in oriental mood

„Sette” LP and digital  on Boring Machines (Italy)

It’s a seven musician ensemble from Torino. The sound is built on two guitars, two basses, one clarinet, one synth, several effects, drums and percussions. It has started as a solo project of Gianni Giublena Rosacroce (clarinet, percussions) who is an alter-ego of Stefano Isaia, the singer of blues rock and roll band Movie Star Junkies.

Toni Cutrone is a very active many-sided man. He runs the NO=FI Recordings and plays drums in the noise-rock Hiroshima Rocks Around and the wacky pop punk duo Trouble vs. Glue. Mai Mai Mai is his solo project. It is completely different than the mentioned acts. Debut album was mixed by Jamie Stewart (Xiu Xiu)

And if you go to Rome then have to go to the Dal Verme Club. He co-runs it.
