M.O.D. Technologies

 

M.O.D. Technologies was "a modern evolution of the original Axiom label - for the purpose of destroying, discerning musical genres, trends, approved or unapproved formats, false ideas and other unnecessary borders. All releases are the direct manifestations of Bill Laswell and other key members of the Method of Defiance collective. The label is formed for the advancement of art and communication, in all forms of the creative process." Ceased operations around 2018 and was succeeded by M.O.D. Reloaded.

 ** Due to contractual agreements and the fact that the Incunabula Series was not yet in existance, this release is digital only.
M.O.D. Technologies: The Incunabula Series promised to present rare and unique, one time only captured events - in some cases originally experienced by a fortunate few - and recover unusual, lost until now, studio recordings. It wil document as far back as the early '80s up to the present time. Moments seldom heard or experienced by anyone.

Unfolding and turning like new pages in a timeless book of secrets.

A Projection of music/sound transmissions that can now rise and spread beyond the confines of an imaginal background.

MAGIC CALLS ITSELF THE OTHER METHOD FOR CONTROLLING MATTER AND KNOWING SPACE.
