Mind Mangled Trip Monster features the amazing and ethereal vocal talents of Elisabeth Oswell. Elisabeth features throughout this album that can be best described as an unexpected musical departure for Andrew Liles. Think solar flares, autumn sunsets, stories form from far away places and bad trips. This acid tinged, other worldly and hypnotic album has a total of …
Noise of Cologne 1
'There is hardly another city where the local musical activities are so thoroughly documented as they are in Cologne. In the home of the Rhein and the Cathedral, they are proud of the 'Sound of Cologne', which usually refers to electronica or minimal techno. Of course 'Noise of Cologne' (NoC) refers to that Cologne sampler. But NoC is not proclaiming the identity of some scene; rather it is highlighting a musical creativity that has so far been drowned out by the club sound. NoC is much more des…

Chestnut Thornback Tar
As Norway’s premier noise troupe, Lasse Marhaug and John Hegre’s Jazkamer project has a certain status to uphold. Rather than resting on their well-earned laurels, Marhaug and Hegre keep a gruelling schedule of shows and an even more gruelling schedule of releases, which has culminated recently in an ambitious album-a-month series spanning throughout 2010. While the concept itself is now fairly well worn, what has astonished this time around is the sheer quality the duo has managed to ke…

It's a live set rec. exactly one year ago at a club with the best ISSUE, attitude... a two sides long track, where you'd hear electronic & instrumental birds getting excited by the terrific drumming of Andrew Barker... it's not an easy combination jazz & electronics but the acid birds surely succeed in bringing jazz music to the next level, that one called future ! see those wings ?! th…
Le désert avance
'With this new album, Melmac reveals a new maturity gained in the course of three French and european tours that have enabled the group to initiate a major part of the ideas presented here through extensive improvisation sessions on stage in the spirit of the instant composing sessions ran by Kraut Rock bands during the psychedelics years. These new experiments have opened the artistic spectrum of the band to new horizons clearly rock, heavy, trippy or noise reminiscent of bands like Sleep or Sk…

Alexandre Bellenger - turntables. Jac Berrocal - vocal, trumpet. François Fuchs - double bass. Dan Warburton - violin. Limited LP (250 copies). 'Jac Berrocal's knowledge of obscure (and not so obscure) French chanson is nothing short of encyclopaedic, as I discovered during the time we spent together touring with Aki Onda a few years ago. My original idea for the Hot Club project (the name of the band, by the way, originates in a joke I had already recorded with Alexandre Bellenger and we…

The first d…
