Editions Mego

Editions Mego was founded on January 1st, 2006 by Peter Rehberg. The label's main goal is to preserve the legacy and catalog of the now defunct Mego label, while also releasing new and innovative works.
With a focus on experimental music and sound art, Editions Mego has become a leading force in the industry. They are known for their commitment to pushing boundaries and exploring new sonic territories.
Whether you're a long-time fan or just discovering their unique offerings, Editions Mego offers a diverse range of releases that will captivate and challenge your musical sensibilities.

Ilpo Väisänen returns to Editions Mego under the guise of I-LP-ON with an immense tribute to the outfit he played in alongside his friend and former creative partner Mika Vainio.

ÄÄNET takes inspiration from the life of Pan Sonic, the outfit they inhabited for over 2 decades. Recorded in Kuopio, Barcelona and Karttula, ÄÄNET is made up of a series of minatres that harness the many shadows this legendary act absorbed: Industrial, ambient, dub and club all figure into this edgy slow burning menace of a release. Featuring recordings made on the 2000 Pan Sonic world tour Väisänen has crafted a unique homage to the outfit which redefined experimental electronic music by embracing pulsing club aesthetics coupled with more abstract avant garde tendencies. The seismic fingerprint left by PanSonic avoids dating and genre identification finding a new definition here both as a nod to a notorious past whilst laying the groundwork for reigniting something utterly contemporary. ÄÄNET is an essential release of Väisänen's as it allows further expansion and broadening of the paths carved out from this resolutely unique form of scratchy and sublime electronic music.
