Fever
Aiaiai, there we go again, 2 years ago it started and now it seems too late to ever stop it.. where is this gonna end, is of course an interesting question.. after a whole night long LA Bamba party (which is seriously a bigger aural torture than any noise gig), a lp with only La Bamba cover versions, a whole night long Popcorn and a accompanied comp lp, it's about time to abuse Eddie Cooley and John Davenport's Fever! on september 3rd 2011 the Fever night is happening on a boat in oostende, and …
Psalmodiam
“What are the psalms? Singing praises to God. What is the psalmody? It is the way how to sing the psalms. And what is the "psalmodiam"? An experimental way how to interpret the psalms. Initially the experimenter examines the psalm minutely, picking up the quintessence of the original emotionality, and then immortalizes the substance of the writing pervading the single notes with incontrovertible jubilant effects that phagocyte the dodecaphonic counterpoint. What is the definitive outcome? A spir…
Musik / 1979-1995
Kippenberger unplugged! Martin Kippenberger skipped out on this world after just 44 years -- in 1997, the art world's flamboyant enfant terrible, one of Germany's most famous painters best known for his biting provocations and prolific output, died of the consequences of his equally prolific alcohol consumption. In 1978, Kippenberger moved to Berlin, launched Kippenberger's Büro (together with his future gallerist Gisela Capitain) and became the managing director of Kreuzberg's seminal ve…
Sy
Weltraum play and record music since 2003. Their Traum/Trauma ep has been released by Lona Records in 2006. In 2008 Weltraum became a trio (electronics, guitar, drums) and shifted their musical research towards rythmical blocks, prefering dry and sharp timbers. No melody, no meaning. They actively move in Napoli, collaborating with A Spirale, Ne travaillez jamais, One starving day, (etre)..., giving life to several impro projects (Asp/SEC_, Aspec(t), Strongly imploded, endorgan) and constantly d…

Blind Jesus
Blind Jesus by Andrew L. Hooker and Stefano Pilia debuts with a record that, according to this writer, is one of the best works of avant-rock heard recently: unravelled stuttering in the vein of Storm & Stress fall from crumbling gorges of tape loops, caracoling flights in the foreground interrupted with improvised retro-folk, wanton porno-concrète jokes arm-in-arm with strained ecstatic drones, followed by melancholic acoustic crackling, industrial creaking, soulful moans, obstacular Supreme Di…
Beautiful Monolith Two
It seems as Campbell Kneale (within his Love Will Destroy The World project) aims to discover any darkest and most dangerous corners of the modern experimental music. As an experienced and dedicated hunter, he doesn't walk the empty tracks, rather he's interested much more in rich bushes and impassable thickets. The A side's track is “Glittery Skin”, it shows Merzbow-like pulsating electronic noises, but the main energy-giver is obscure and doomy heavy guitar riff. Sick, anarchic, trancesending …

Psychic
Like Yeah Yeah Yeahs undergoing a psychotic episode, or Pocahaunted possessed by the spirit of James Brown, Vibes present four tracks of discombobulated funk and wild, outsider punk on this four song long single. The early, chaotic free-associations of Magik Markers would be a good point of reference too, but these guys place more emphasis on low-down bass grooves wah-wah pedal mutations. The cover shots suggest the band are a bit of a spectacle in a live setting, and the rough, brain-a…

And, 100 copies on…
