               fact096                     deceiver / developer             -                   "split"                      c10
water torture / v.o.c. bassist matt (phil) goodrich's brutal hnw project deceiver drops a 5 min sandblaster of low end wall pummel. on the flip side developer answers the inertia with a clusterfuck of light speed breakneck heavy cuts, silence, and weirdness.

            fact097              plagues / developer               -              "split"                             c10
p.e. master brandon hill bestows upon us a malicious maelstrom of total brutality. this track sounds like the audio representation of pure hell.  developer's b side while a mess of cut up harsh weirdness, still seems to carry over the longing vibe from the a side via the beach memory at the end.

              fact102               thirteen fingers / developer                -             "split"                c10
two short side long stabs of brutal cut up harsh noise from two of americas finest. side a, thirteen fingers hits us with "massacre" a harsh glitching hic-up of crushing, unrelenting harsh noise. on the b side developer deliver a mile-a-minute cut up of harsh noise, filter madness, percussion, fucked up loops and squeaky doors.

        fact104                    matthew reis              -           "malignant slumber "           34pg         art zine 
this is the first collection of collage works by sound and visual artist matthew reis. best known for his sonic work as developerand teeth collection or his work with such diverse musical groups wasteland jazz ensemble,humane qunea orchestra, altars, footbinder, ohio unsemble, muck, heart of the whore, black almas, etc or remix work with +hirs+, water torture, hyrrokkin and others, he has just as long a history of making covers flyers and personal works. while co-running the epicene sound systems label reis created the covers for the majority of the 100+ cassette and cdr releases for epicene's side label ESR. running the factotum tape label on his own ever since epicene's closure, reis has either curated or created the art and layouts for the entire catalog (also at 100+ releases). this collection is comprised of tape and cd-r covers, work from other out of print zines, personal works, and images originally made for flyers going as far back as 1999.

          fact105              developer & tinnitustimulus              -            "remixes"                 c30
large amounts of raw un cut audio was exchanged via email. lots of techniques of cutting and pasting were then applied. loops were made, sounds were treated. and the end results.. two side long slabs of 
showcasing each artist ability to make all sound there own by perverting the other artist original sound sources for their own pleasure. and thankfully ours.

            fact107                    rowlands_bobby            -           "2nd"                    c90
2nd c90 from the men behind dayton cut up soloist developer and whoracle of delco, slow it down and weird it out. while echoes of the super crushing harshness found on the first tape can be heard, they decided to stretch there legs out on this one. melting string sections, ghost radio frequencies, raked leaves, tension you can cut with a knife make up the brutal beauty of this barrage of what the fuck.
