Allgrena is a dark post-industrial ritual project that has been run by Franz Nigl since 1990

with the help of various guest musicians.
The name is an invented word and means "all nature",

made up of "All" and "Grena" for the color green that stands for nature.
At the beginning (1990-94) Allgrena was a neo-folk project,

with the helps of some musicians from the group Rozengracht, a band in which Nigl did percussion and vocals.
Since 1994 he has been creating music only in the industrial way working with iron or steel percussion, 

pianos, flutes, drums, water noises and recording sounds in unusual places.
On "Tonräder" he was supported by Sonja Leutmetzer (Violin), Norbert Payer (Samples, ex-Rozengracht member)

and Johannes Nendwich (Clarinet, ex-Rozengracht member).
Parts of the album were recorded in "extraordinary" locations: percussion on the walls of a bunker (Vienna Wall),

clarinet, violin and organ pipe in the Vienna Canal (with Sonja and Johannes),

percussion on water tanks in an old factory in Dresden

and percussion and clarinet (with Johannes) in one of the 4 gasometer towers in Vienna Simmering.
Allgrena has produced three full length albums, various cassette releases, a 7'' EP

and a VHS tape dedicated to the four elements earth, water, fire and air.
The Memory Link contains a bonus track that was taken from Allgrena's participation on the the 7'' EP compilation

"Wo Die Wilden Kerle Wohnen", that was released in 2000 and featured Allerseelen, Der Blutharsch and Nový Svět.

Master/Slave Relationship is an industrial project from Los Angeles, CA, United States,

formed in Autumn of 1984 by Deborah Jaffe as a one-person music and photographic project

to explore her own interests in elements of emotional domination and submission.
For more than twenty years Jaffe has self-produced a unique brand of industrial music and art

showing keen interest in Dada, abstract expressionism, photography, visual art and graphic design.
From 1982 to 1988 she formed the experimental avant-garde project Viscera with Hal McGee 

and together they created the label Cause And Effect which was a cassette-only music mail order outlet in the Midwest.
She also co-founded blackmetal.com in 1996.
In 2009 after a very long hiatus Master/Slave Relationship recorded a new music piece

for Hal McGee's Dictaphonia compilation called "Give".
She was also a member of the Dada Action Group with James Banner

 and collaborated with Stefan Kozak on his project The Skaden.
From 2014 to 2016 new recordings were released under the moniker Debbie Jaffe.
"Music For A Sadomasochistic Scene" was originally released on the Belgian label Daft Records

 and reissued in 2002 by Cybertzara label.
This music was also featured as interim music on the "Smut Picture Racket" CD-ROM in 1995.
