Behold - s/t EP

Behold (aka. We Watched in Horror) hadn't been changed much, besides changing their name. Typically raw-black metal influenced emoviolence. I even contributed on 'Find the Faith' and it even sounds better than on the second CSR comp. However, i was told they will change their sounds for some time. Cannot wait to hear some more.

Ash U Ra - Mare

An avant garde project from Santiago, Chile releases this really trippy piece. The assailant behind this claimed he recorded from his cat's purrs, digitally altering and butchering them into rusty static sounds. Dat gag tho: Purr Noise Wall

July 2016

Sueisntfine / Collapsed Lung split

Another nice split with a pair of good fellas under the name Collapsed Lung. As sueisntfine, i have released some old unreleased songs that should've been out a long time ago. But, here it is anyway.

Dosis Letalis - Elections are Coming

A nice little HNW coming from Serbia. More wallz and violence from DL. Perhaps more violent than Raven. I love them both, tho.

Goodthink - Guilt

A final goodthink album that finally takes a cake on the screamo route. A flabbergasting mix of Makara, 25 Dollar Massacre and Daughters, etc. Not gonna lie, Guilt is potentionally good.

Telekom Basketball - Katosit terälehtiin kirkkaudessa ja en nähnyt sinua enää koskaan

A finnish emo extended play whose quality has proven after their noise-rock driven demo. TB bears resemblances of 90's emocores such as Embassy and I Hate Myself.

Actually Dying, Many Apologies - Self Titled EP.

A very first EP of Actually Dying came out this month since their split with We Watched In Horror. This ep tends to be more improvisational and kinda messy in the way that they don't actually care about the music making rules.

PKWST - Unnameable in Any Known Language

A black metal influenced harsh noise band from Phoenix, AZ, USA featuring Carrion, Moyo and PKWST themselves. This compilation of theirs is, after a pack of their hourly individual albums, collects 8 tracks that clock to almost 82 minutes. Sure, it's not for everyone, but it doesn't mean you don't have to check it out if you're wondering what border that such music breaks.

Nekro Batica - Zaborav EP

A gritty serbian dark ambient ep containing 5 tracks concealing shrouds of forgetfulness.

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.

January 2016

MINUTES OF DECAY - INCHOATE DEATH EP

My new band with Andrew of Cohentehja Nitt. Basically, we're a virtual depressive emo duo. Andrew wrote his own sample lyrics for three tracks, tho i have written my own for the second track. I think it can be considered as a demo EP. This is a good start to me, and maybe we will be making better music in the future.

PUBLIC MORBIDITY - XI

Violent, homicidal HNW release of Joseph Szymkowiak's (Nahash Atrym Productions, Run, Uv Ursa Spr) Public Morbidity. Two tracks of never ending bloodshed.

EXTINCT - GREATEST HITS - THE EARLY YEAR

Punishing hxcx pxvx from Querfurt, Germany. The recollections of unreleased songs including their demo ep.

WE WATCHED IN HORROR - BEHOLD EP

Gritty, blackened lo-fi emoviolence from Massachusetts, USA. One man band in its entirety. Brutally sharp vocals completely take over raw screamo music we haven't heard before. Raw black metal influence is always better than the polished one. FFO: Love Lost But Not Forgotten, Kobra Khan, Orchid, Grievance, Dispensing of False Halos.

V SABO - THE WHOLE WORLD IS A PIECE OF ROTTEN FLESH

Hungarian noise artist is back once more so far since his release "Emowave" came into our fridge. It consists of mixes with Dark Ambient Misanthropy and Furious Harsh Noise Landscapes.

ACTUALLY DYING, MANY APOLOGIES // WE WATCHED IN HORROR - SOMEWHERE BETWEEN KANSAS AND BOSTON... HALFWAY TO OZ

Blackened lo-fi screamo and Manic Sludge Skramz, both from USA coming together with a really grimy split. Actually Dying's side is a 18 minutes of total manic chaos and never ending suffering. In Horror's side is fast, intense and completely crazy in its own way. Definitely my favorite split release of all time.

DESTINED - DESTINED

Destined's self-titled EP has recently come out since their last ep 'Growing'. The production is a bit outdated but still decent enough.

LUCY JANE GARCIA / VOMIR SPLIT

My HNW project Lucy Jane Garcia has previously released self-titled album and other one "Call Me Lucy" and this time a split with a well known HNW pioneer Vomir. 2 tracks made by each of us as a protest for Trans rights and as a resistance against transphobia and bigotry.

November / December / Happy New Year!

Shit! Sorry for a horribly long delay. I haven't done anything for this blog during november/december times. I've had other stuff to do... Anyways, let's continue.

NOVEMBER

Sueisntfine/Fatal Position Split

Beasty noisecore from USA Fatal Position has come to terms with my one man powerviolence Sueisntfine. F.p. haven't changed a bit, they're still loud and they're still fucked up. mine is a bit different from my previous releases. It has this sort of The Locust vibe tho it's more likely stripped down. All my 6 songs are made from Garageband (this is my first try yo).

WAAS / Cult of Pythagoras

my WAAS's single split with my dear friend Olin's Cult of Pythagoras. A single share of drowsy sci-fi atmosphere that we have ever composed.

I Tried To Smell A Flower, But The Petals Scraped my Corneas Out - First Demo

Here's this rad one man aussie skramz coming from melbourne. 4 tracks of lo-fi acoustic skramz. This project only has this and a couple of songs and is now dead.

WAAS / Raven

This is by far, the most impressive thing i have ever done. The second track is my favorite. Pure chaos, delusions and paranoia.

DECEMBER

Raven - Idiots Parade

After my split with Raven, he had decided for me to release another thing, and that is this unforgivable 5-min track called Idiots Parade. A must listen.

Brunettes - These Words Will Become Duller With Each One I Write

Post-hardcore/Screamo from Boston, Massachussets, USA. Two tracks of radness. What else can i say?

Telekom Basketball - Demo

Gee, what's this? A nice, noisy, lo-fi emotive hardcore from Finland? A bit filthy, but sounds really promising.

Bitchslap / Nekro Batica - Procreation of Nothingness

Antonio Jovanovic, the author behind two of these projects, decided to put them for this precious split. Bitchslap here displays, like its previous ep, weird electronic dance music, as if its like a video game music. Nekro Batica, on the other hand, takes Silent Hill as an influence for its dark ambient landscape.

での受ので - Killed All My Sweet Kittens

Imagine if this was Vaporwave, but only on children's songs and then add a bunch of random noises and then play it out loud for the entire city streets to go mad randomly. This is what it's like.

Flooducti - Immunotherapy

This was supposed to be the last release of John's Noise Records, but the label is still going so, no. It's not the last. Flooducti produces three tracks of industrial, nightmarish psychological journeys.

Los Que Perdonan - Tormento

Dancy, indie-rock influenced screamo from Argentina. 3 tracks of raw, punk music.

Chronic Fatigue - Demo

Angsty as fuck hardcore punk from Umeå, Sweden.

Droux und Gisg - Demo 2015

Sick as fuck cybergrind from Umeå, Sweden. 2 tracks made as a one man band, more tracks with more members will be here soon.

Destined - Growing

After their full length album "Many a Moon", 90's emo Destined decided to release one more time in 2015, and it's their three track ep "Holding". Three tracks of poetic beauty. It just goes to show that you can still be original without the help of La Dispute and Touche Amore. You can just go your way and this band proves it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!

I wish you all a happy new year everyone!!!!!!

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.

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.

- Screamo/Emoviolence
- Powerviolence
- Noisecore
- Fastcore
- Noise
- Drone
- HNW
- Dark Ambient
- Experimental/Avant Garde
- Hardcore Punk
- Lo-fi
- Indie Rock
- Shoegaze/Noise Pop
- Bedroom projects
- Post-Rock

Now, if you want to your music to be submitted, write me in my gmail stojiljkovic.filip2@gmail.com or send me a message via my facebook page. You can send me the music using WeTransfer/Mediafire etc.
