[ ] Here comes good news from the AIBOFORCEN camp!
Many fans have been requesting again and again copies of the "Dysfunctional subconscious" album by their side-project INTERNAL that was released on Zoth Ommog. Well, they managed to get back the remaining copies of this collector item that will now be exclusively sold through the alfa matrix website. INTERNAL is the fruit of the collaboration between multi-talented sound guru John N. Sellekaers (XINGU HILL, AMMO, DEAD HOLLYWOOD STARS, etc.) and Seba Dolimont (AIBOFORCEN) with special guest vocals by Len Lemeire (IMPLANT) and Australian female singer Cara Lithgo. INTERNAL was described as a mix between LASSIGUE BENDTHAUS, HAUJOBB and bitchy angry vox. In related news, AIBOFORCEN confirm us that most of the songs for their 4th record entitled "Kafarnaüm" are written. They are now entering the final recording and production phase for the album they hope to release after Summer this year. cara lithgo, voice of INTERNAL also contributed to this new album dedicated to mental & physical chaos. Expect a disturbing sonic experience for what the band calls their darkest and most complex effort ever.

[ ] Square Matrix in pre-order now
Having received so many requests from our staunch fans about preorders for our next release "Square Matrix 001" CD album [AM1006CD], we decided to start presales for this release right NOW! There is great chance that this release could already be in stock (read posted to you!) in our headquarters in the second half of May. We also insist that this split-single album is strictly limited to 2000 copies. There will be NO second pressing. Be fast cos most versions are non-album mixes/tracks for the 4 bands! Pre-order the set here!

With this new «Square Matrix» series, Alfa Matrix launches the «4 in 1» concept, giving the opportunity to electronic music fans to buy 4 singles to the price of 1 CD album. Each featured band delivers on this release new exclusive dancefloor material in preview of their respective forthcoming albums. It is a collection of club hits and exclusive remixes. The best way to discover and enjoy the diversified high-quality music of the Alfa Matrix label artists. 

On edition 001, the Belgian AÏBOFORCEN return with some forceful new modern techno/EBM tracks announcing a very promising 4th album. The new songs "Testing New Waters" and "Give Me These Wings" also feature Regenerator’s Patrice Synthea’s on vocals and reveal a very powerful up-beat approach with harsher male backing vocals (check excerpts of the 2 new songs on our website!). Add to this a dancefloor vox mix of their famous "Lobotomie Matricielle" featuring Dominique (from New-York gothtronic act NEIKKA RPM) as guest vocalist; plus cherry on the cake a splendid mix of the title song by Canada's rising duo HEADSCAN

And since good news never come alone: this split-CD will also be available as a limited edition including as usual a bonus-CD featuring 2 bonus-tracks by each featured artist. This special release will also be sold together with a splendid modern Alfa Matrix mousepad! 

Alfa Matrix artists on Zillo Club hits' compilation vol.7
Not one, not two, but three (!!) Alfa Matrix artists have been selected by the German magazine Zillo to appear on the new 7th edition of their legendary "Zillo club hits" compilation. Selected bands are HUNGRY LUCY with their new "Fearful" hit, AÏBOFORCEN and their unavoidable "Twilight World" and our smashing Canadian newcomers EPSILON MINUS who already started breaking the dancefloors with their "Freedom", bound to become a club classic in no time. Other featured artists include apoptygma berzerk, hocico, mesh, das ich, diary of dreams, suicide commando, etc.

[March 2002]
AÏBOFORCEN whose "Sons Palliatifs" album has been doing so well that a second pressing was delivered again this week, have also been working on a single tentatively titled "Testing new waters". It will feature 2 new tracks, one of them in a remix form and most probably a vocal and remixed version (with special guest vocal appearance by Dominique from the New-York based duo NEIKKA RPM!!) of an instrumental track off the current album. The new material is also receiving the remix treatment by some of the most promising electronic acts from the new generation. More details as we get them! Meanwhile, Benoît has also completed a remix for their American friends of NEGATIVE FORMAT for their next release! Watch out.

[October 2001]
[ ] AÏBOFORCEN's frontman, Séba Dolimont just sent us this message: "...to all our fans who pre-ordered the double-CD limited edition of our new album, we want to inform you that although the release date of our album was yesterday 9th November, we are right now still missing one part of our limited edition! There's in fact a special item due to be inserted in the DVD boxes coming from a palliative cares hospital. With the exceptionally strict controls organised by the post offices around the world since the anthrax wave of panic, our package happens to have been listed as "suspect" because of a special white substance contained in these "surprise objects". We have now provided the authorities with all documents that should allow us to free this package. We hope to receive it any day next week. Be sure that all packages for pre-orders are here ready to be shipped the same day as this last thing shall be delivered. We feel very unmighty in our current position and keep our fingers crossed that the authorities shall keep their promises and let the package be delivered. We count on your understanding and guarantee you it's worth the wait. Alfa Matrix will of course inform you as soon as your pre-order is posted. 

[October 2001]
[ ] As announced the 3rd album by AÏBOFORCEN, "Sons Palliatifs", will be out on 9th November 2001. A dark, melodic and dance floor album you will soon be hearing and reading about everywhere...
