TMS first official album ntsc

For the end of the year here something special, the first official album of the noise project TMS by Tina Mariane Krogh Madsen and Malte Steiner. Originally produced in July 2017 it was played fully at the US TV show Mysteries Of UB, but went into development hell after that, the planned release on another label never happened so finally block 4 stepped in. TMS moved on and recorded many more pieces and we have exciting news soon.
