October 2016 / Halloween Comp vol. 2

Nekro Batica - Total Negation of Life

In here, Nekro Batica has compiled nearly every compositions that were either released or unreleased, but still a lot to discover, especially for the fans of dark ambient.

Dosis Letalis - Crackling Worship V

One of the few prominent HNW artists from Serbia continues to exceed himself with this particular experiment of walls which shows that you don't have to include really loud noise to achieve that. And come to think of it, this piece gives me tingles <3

Lucy Jane Garcia / Inappropriate King Live - Split

This one's rather interesting. A rather revealing contrast between IKL's psychologically riveting chaos and LJG's overwhelming walls  of despairing melancholy. A rather fitful match.

A Horror Movie Soundtrack vol. 2 - COMPLETE!

At last, another Halloween compilation is complete, totally including new soundtracks who contribute to intense and spooky horror atmosphere.

March 2016

ROADSIDE PICNIC - DENY THE RITES

This HNW release, as stated by R.P., as "an analysis on his pre-teen Melody immersion" and Deny The Rites did just that. 2 tracks including a remix by Julien Skrobek definitely takes the cake on how to do HNW properly.

GAS STATION OF LOVE - THEORY OF GHOSTS

Another awesome experimental noise artist Gas Station of Love (Joey Corman) is so pleased to have me introduce his new work "Theory of Ghosts", packed with erie, surrealistic pattern and nightmarish ghastly atmosphere that will leave you breathless in no time.

KIZUMONO NO HANAKO - 元気じゃない

To my surprise, finding a nintendocore band like this is a great discovery and a great addition for CSR. Kizumono no Hanako stops at nothing at creating a mix of Nintendo soundtracks, screamo and enough energy to express badassery. I sometimes imagine a split between Kizumono No Hanoko and Logical Flora. That would be awesome. 

February 2016

ANTI-YUGO & NAZI GRIND MACHINE - 1st demo

My new one man grind-noisecore where a demo/album/ep/split doesn't even need the name of the short-as-hell tracks. It's more like whatever idgaf about song titles just make some noise already.

AMINUPAULA - 1 + 1 = 0

An interesting discovery on VK.com, a russian minimal electronic duo Aminupaula from Novosibirsk, we have 5 tracks of industrial and noise influences in their EP 1 + 1 = 0. Definitely worth checking out.

YUBARI GOGO - S/T

This incredible new one man, Yubari Gogo, from Greece, Tears screamo a new face with this s/t. "Nonfiction" and "To Never Sanctify Carlos Gesualdo" appeared in a two track cassette. Tho, it's undeniable of how wonderful this album is. Definitely my fav of 2016.

LUCY JANE GARCIA / STADIUM 6221

The way Lucy brings noise with her friends to my label never ceases to amaze me. Lucy and Stadium 6221 from Hungary, proceed to spread further wings of noise, closing down the walls in the most narrowest ways and crush your lungs to death.

October 2015 / CSR Halloween Specials is OUT NOW!

Not much has been released this month, though it continues here haha...

The Mormon Death Squad - The Good Book

Another freak noise from Colorado, USA, depicting Action Pollock (Guitar/Electronics) and King Dizzy (Guitar/Distortions) taking action tripping through their songs.

Xtematix / WeAreAllSlaves / V Sabo - Manic - Possess - Slaughter

After a few discussions with V Sabo (Hungary) and Xtematic (Croatia), we decided to make our way for the three way split, depicting the audial and visual seeings of aggressiveness, violent murders and unforgiving possessions on innocent people.

Yuuko Hai - World End Mambo

Here we are, with this new thing called Japanoise. In this month, we have Yuuko Haii, another confused noise weirdo being noisey about the noisey apocalypse and his obsession about Mambo. Tbh, it's not a brutal Harsh Noise, it's more of a Musique Concrete style, which is surprisingly interesting. Lots of his audience have gathered around even when somebody like me helps him with every releases (this is my first of him tho).

CSR HALLOWEEN SPECIALS IS OUT NOW!

At last, the Halloween night has begun. Bunch of preteens and children strolling around in the suburban streets of America and in Europe, trick or treating with candies and whatnot, watching their favorite horror classic marathons and wearing costumes of their favorite characters, etc. Tho nobody should forget about this compilation that is OUT NOW on Bandcamp. Happy Halloween!

In this compilation, we have got 13 songs from artists of each country like Serbia (Nekro Batica, Antitalent, Bitchslap, WAAS, Souless Savvi, Sueisntfine), USA (Funeralopolis, disposable, Logical Flora), Puerto Rico (Private Institute In Heaven), Italy (Painburn), Russia (Lora) and Canada (Moyo).

Click here and enjoy.

September 2015 / Halloween Compilation

In this month, the releasing chronicle continues...

Moyo - Kitsch Drawf

Crazy, random and totally kitschy noise from Canada named MOYO, who finally has this material released in our CSR base. AN: The whole track is 30 mins long, but Bandcamp couldn't upload the entire track so it's separated in two.

Echoes throughout the caverns of Leytonstone - Submerged at the lowest depths of hollow ponds

Interestingly gloomy and surreal dark ambient/drone/Noise from United Kingdom. Two tracks clocking about 40 minutes in total.

WeAreAllSlaves / Coma Berenices split

Another crazy split of my project (WAAS) with a noise newbie from Greece. Coma Berenices (Greece) comes up with this strange artwork idea and even more stranger noise compositions, tho i (Serbia) come up sounding like a bastard child of Throbbing Gristle puking on Marilyn Manson poster.

Lora - EP

Crazy spastic emoviolence from Moscow, Russia. 4 short, intense tracks lasting in less than 5 minutes. FFO: Jeromes Dream, Usurp Synapse, Orchid, Neil Perry.

The Spectral Circle Cult - Mangle Mind Meddle

Another strange noise/dark ambient as expected from Colorado, USA. 4 long tracks of surreal art audio collages and samples thrown in the tape.

MTS M - N a d a

Obscure, enigmatic noise from Santiago, Chile.

CONFUSION SPECIALIST HALLOWEEN SPECIALS

As you may know, this month is Halloween, one of the most beloved events of Fall. I know, i like it too. Then i started collecting tracks, doesn't matter if released or unreleased or just made for something. The deadline will be at the end of the month.

If anyone wants to join, please send me the track via stojiljkovic.filip2@gmail.com.

July 2015

So, the releasing thing has just started today. Here are the releases in the following order:

- WeAreAllSlaves / Rezeegtnuk - You Can Only Get Mad Once
A Noise split between my project from Belgrade, Serbia (WeAreAllSlaves) and Comedy Noise from Ontario, Canada (Rezeegtnuk).

- Nulajednanulanula - Demo
Now, this is something so rare from Czech Republic. Agonizing screams, melancholic and desperate songwriting. This band has everything this label needs

- V Sabo - Emowave
An interesting Harsh Noise from Hungary focusing on 'emo' topics, hence the title of this EP. I prefer it as the best. Yes, it is. Heheh... IMO, this is somehow an interesting noise project that i have come across, so don't miss this...

Aspen Grove - In The Shade EP
Honestly, this is one of the decent Post-Rock/Shoegaze/Screamo bands i have discovered. No overused build-ups like most Post-Rock bands do, only calm progression occurs in this very, if not hopefully, last EP. If anyone else, like me, get tired of build-ups, this EP is for you.

The Insekt Life Cycle - Purple Gaze EP
How precious this EP is from an Instrumental Post-Rock trio from Philippines. It's like a mix of Mogwai and Mono. Very sweet and moving structures. I would also recommend this for post-rockers.

Nekro Batica - The Prison of My Youth and Other Not So Bright Speechless Stories
A Dark Ambient/Noise project from Serbia produces some dark, sinister, melancholic atmosphere. It could be more likely for sleep mode, but it could be a chiller tone to make your skins crawl. Or not. See for yourselves.

Finally! The 1st Confusion Specialist Compilation is out.

I'm satisfied and surprised to share this post for everyone who joined in this comp. For those who aren't familiar with it, this is a typical compilation, consisting of various bands who play their own sounds, such as screamo, noise, experimental, shoegaze and so on. 41 tracks may fulfill your enjoyment. And it also might make you get to know these artists. If you like it so far, please spread the word about it and share it. Thanks!

Check it here!

The first compilation of CSR will be finishing soon...

Apparently, i've gotten into a contact with lots of bands who are happy to share the tunes with us. I am very happy to say that i have got nearly 30 songs on my iTunes playlist (to perfectly watch which track is in line for a bandcamp upload).
Just look how everything has filled the slot!

That being said, it won't be on CD-r because of a very long duration for the whole compilation and will be possibly for a free download. Thank you for joining.

And if there's anything that i could do for you, message me via email from my first post below.

Confusion Specialist Records is born!

Hi, this is my first DIY/Net label that i have recently started. The name coming from a Jeromes Dream song came to my mind of a record label name because it sounded so fucking awesome. I thought starting it later, but i changed my mind and started it now.

Now, first thing's first, ALL i want for the label to put is:
- Screamo/Emoviolence
- Powerviolence
- Noisecore
- Fastcore
- Noise
- Drone
- HNW
- Dark Ambient
- Experimental/Avant Garde
- Hardcore Punk
- Lo-fi
- Indie Rock
- Shoegaze/Noise Pop
- Bedroom projects
