Portion Control re-releases self-destroying ‘Dissolve’ material in a more durable format
Out via VUZ Records and Maneki Neko Tapes is “Dissolve Plus” by Portion Control. As you might remember, Portion Control released the “Dissolve” CD-Rom in 2004. This was a special release as it was a software that, 66 days after its installation, simply stopped working.
With the release of “Dissolve Plus”, these tracks are finally available again on CD, cassette (with a different track order) and as download.
Also added are some tracks from various releases, all out of print for quite some time, namely from the split CD-R “Solar Enemy vs. Portion Control”, the “Belgian Independent Music Compilation 3” CD, the “Stansted” EPCD and the download release “Continued Violence Download”. All in all 21 tracks.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
