Hi Emi & Michele!
I've got a few suggestions for artists that might be of interest of you (to try) to sign to your awesome label.
Svein Egil Hatlevik (Aphrodisiac, DHG aka Dødheimsgard, Fleurety). I am releasing his solo-debut 7"ep
Black Necrotic Obfuscation in a few weeks time through my label
Benighted Mirror. This release is not for the closed minded but it will prove an interesting listen for the open minded. It will feature Blashemer (Mayhem) on (guest)guitar. This is weird geek music with some interesting & beautiful sounds & some light noise. Alas, I can not go into too much detail yet for the recordings have not yet been finished and I have not heard the final version.
I will send you a copy of the EP as soon as it is finished so perhaps you can offer him a deal for a full-lenght which my label can not afford at the moment.
The next artist that I could suggest to you is
scharminkel . scharminkel's music is
weird sometimes very Ars Subtilior (= classical medieval music from around the late 14th, early 15th centurary) in structure which results in very strange & unusual time signatures and measures. Very (structually) dynamic creating a very unsetteling and very difficult but highly interesting listen. I can safely state that
scharminkel's music is completely unique and orginal and that you have heard nothing like it.
A CD-R release is schedueled (through
Benighted Mirror)for as soon as the material is declared finished by
scharminkel, which could be a while. The artwork will be unique and very impressive as well.
The next artist that I can suggest to you is
Neoid. Neoid creates strange tekk-noise-ambient (this does description does not do the music justice), combining the rough harsh beats as can be heard in for example Converter and combining it with a ambient like sound as can be heard in the soundtrack of the old Super Nintendo game Metroid 3. This is also very interesting music and I have (once again) a 7" ep scheduled to be released. The 7" will be entitled
repression and will feature 2 songs "repression" & "memory's ruin"
None of my words do the artists or their music juistice and only their music does so it should be heard before opinions are formed about it. However, should my incomplete (and somewhat inaccurate) descriptions have peeked your interest I advise you to contact me at
benighted_mirror@yahoo.com
To suggest a few artists that are not on captured in the reflection of my empty mirror.
If you could get Charmand Grimloch to do something with Tartaros once again that would be cool.
Another suggestion, although perhaps not entirely fitting with Code666 would be the Finnish doomsters' Unholy. They recorded a promo after the album Gracefallen which suposedly has taken a step away from Doom Metal and perhaps more in to the alley of Code666. Atleast Unholy are unique and bizarre (and they have a huge fanbase).
Alhough they are defunct now they might still reform if they get a contract. Their website can be found here:

Well these are all the suggestions that I have time for at them moment.
kind regards,
your loyal Code666 supporter,
vincent
Ps. The new Manes sounds pretty cool!!! Keep up the good work!!!
PPs.
Esoteric would also fit very well I think with code666. You should seriously check them out if you don't know them for they are truly magic!
