Their investigations have taken them into fictional cultures where nothing is easily located and reality often slips into the hypnagogic. Having secluded themselves in Newcastle, England since their inception in 1980, Zoviet France have developed a radical relationship with the cheap technologies of old-fashioned tape recorders, homemade acoustic instruments, primitive looping and sampling devices, and basic dub trickery. From these machines, the collective has crafted a distinctly unique vocabulary of postindustrial sonic hypnosis. Just as Zoviet France's sound was alchemic reconfigurations of inexpensive technologies, their vinyl packaging literally covered their sounds with aluminum, roofing shingles and porcelain.

Robin Storey Real Name: Robin Storey Profile: Was born in 1955 in Cumbria, England. While studying fine arts at Sunderland University, he began pursuing a long-held interest in sound manipulation by taking classes in electronic and experimental composition, additionally joining with friends to perform the works of Karlheinz Stockhausen (a key influence, as were the Krautrock bands of the early 1970s). In 1980 Storey formed the pioneering industrial group Zoviet France, remaining a member until 1992; during that year, Storey issued the first Rapoon album, Dream Circle, its entrancing fusion of Indian ragas, African rhythms and experimental textures anticipating the evocative soundscapes of the many releases to follow.

Empty Quarter (PtI)recorded at Twilight Sound studio Manchester all songs Bryn Jones limited editions one Bryn 447 Chorley rd Swinton Manchester made in UK LIMITED EDITIONS 1984 Muslimgauze マンチェスターをベースに活動していたBryn Jonesは、81年、最初のポストインダストリアル・プロジェクトEg Oblique Graph名義でカセットリリースし、その後レバノンのイスラエルの侵攻への応答としてムスリムガーゼへと進化していく。その音楽は彼の主な関心事、イラン、インド、アフガニスタン、リビア、レバノンの政治 ( パレスチナ人とPLOなど ) にインスピレーションの源があり、西洋と東洋の文化の独自のミックスと言えるだろう。またブリンジョーンズは特にCAN、ファウスト、NEUなどのドイツの電子音楽やイギリスでのTG、ワイヤなどのインダストリアルミュージックや、現代美術作家の影響を認めている。70年代後半のパンクとインダストリアル・ミュージックの進化の過程としてのムスリムガーゼのミドルテンポのパーカッションループ＆ドラムビートの呪術的音楽と精神は、現在のマンチェスターを拠点にしたモダンラヴ・レコードでのAndy Stott，DemdikeStare、GH、Milesの音楽にみられるインダストリアルなアポカリプティック・サウンドへと継承されているのは間違いない。 Muslimgauze - Druse (album: Betrayal, label: Staalplaat) Muslimgauze Real Name: Bryn Jones Profile: June 17, 1961 - January 14, 1999 "Bryn Jones was not a practicing Muslim and never traveled to the Middle East. His recordings as Muslimgauze, however, qualified him as one of the Western artists most explicitly slanted in favor of the Palestinian liberation movement. Since the Manchester native’s works were instrumental, most of the political statement was inherent in the packaging: witness titles such as Fatah Guerrilla, Return of Black September, Hebron Massacre, Vote Hezbollah, United States of Islam, and The Rape of Palestine. Jones’s output was so idiosyncratic and prolific that he would remix anything he was given to suit his purposes and recorded an album almost every week. Jones could have been a potentially controversial figure if his releases were available in anything except extremely limited editions—usually less than one thousand copies of each title. Despite their lack of prominence, Jones’s blend of found-sound Middle Eastern and South Asian atmospheres with heavily phased drones and colliding rhythm programs were among the most startling and unique in the noise and electronica underground. The Muslimgauze project ended tragically in 1999 when Jones died suddenly of a rare blood disease. A number of posthumous releases including Lo-Fi India Abuse (partially a collaboration with the dub collective Systemwide) and the 9-disc Box Of Silk And Dogs soon followed." -John Bush for allmusic.com His discography (96 titles at the time of his death) has nearly doubled since 1999, although this counts reissued titles as well as brand-new titles. http://www.muslimgauze.org/ http://arabbox.free.fr/almassalives.html DE FABRIEK / MADE IN SPAIN ( EG 007 ) cara A. 1.

Eker at the end of the seventies. Now the spil are Richard van Dellen, Louise Manuru van Dellen (his wife) and Simone van Dellen (his daughter). Not considering themselves a regular band (for one thing, they are a label too) they present The Factory as some sort of workmen-union, and the musicians they work with as labourers.

Hailing from New York, he was seduced by techno music when Jeff Mills held a residency (as well as his own first) at the Limelight in the early 90s. Dave started to produce music and from the mid-90s onwards, put out music on Damon Wild's Synewave and his own Infrastructure imprint. Together with Karl O'Connor aka Regis he worked as Portion Reform, putting out uncompromising music on Downwards and becoming the only non-Birmingham producer to release on the label. More recently, Dave moved to Berlin and, still working with O'Connor, set up the acclaimed Sandwell District imprint.

Produced using nothing but vintage analog equipment, Roland Space Echo, Echoplex, Korg tape delay, vintage signal processors, noise generators, Sequential Circuits 8 -Bit samplers and numerous analog synthesizers. All sounds, static, tones and field recordings, including paranormal activity captured and recorded in Chicago and Detroit. (Edited) -Discogs. Echospace MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/echospacedetroit Rod Modell & Mike Schommer (DeepChord)... Compared often to the works of Maurizio (Moritz Von Oswald) or the Basic Channel releases, the humble composers Rod Modell and Mike Schommer offer a unique blend of dubby beats, crisp static, synthetic analog grooves, and of course lots of deep chords! Its worth noting that DeepChord is now only Rod Modell. (Edited) -last.fm. Rod Model... Rod Modell is a sound designer / electronic music producer from the Detroit area. Began producing music in the mid-80's using analog synthesizers and drum machines. To date (July 2007), Modell has about 60 releases to his credit. Rod's work was focused on elecrto-acoustic experimentation in the early years, making musique concrete compositions with a 4-track cassette machine and field recordings, then branching into industrial soundscape work. More recent recordings utilize more structure and beats, but still retain the atmospherics that Modell is known for. Mood is of paramount importance in a Rod Modell recording (often created with field recordings). Sadly, this element seems to be lost in much of the clicks+cuts DSP music of today. One of Modell's favorite pastimes is making middle-of-the-night recordings with his portable DAT machine and dummy-head microphone. In the mid-90's, Modell started Deepchord Records (w/ Mike Schommer) in Detroit, as an outlet for his music. Deepchord has experienced tremendous popularity (some say cult status) within the Dub Techno world. Formed in the mid-90's, DC was one of the original perveyors of this sound. Hordes of immitators came in the following years after DC, but DC's status as one of the originators is firmly embedded in musical history. Somewhat similar to the mid-90's Berlin sound, but with warmer sensibilites... seeming to pull more elements from Chicago's House and Detroit's Techno heritages, while avoiding Berlin's more metallic edge. Someone recently described Berlin's sound as Black and Grey, and DC's sound as Brown and Red.

Ripatti has always been a man of many projects, producing on his own as Vladislav Delay, Luomo, Uusitalo and Sistol, with each guise differing greatly in style. Not much is known about the sound of his new group, but it has at least a few things in common with the Moritz von Oswald Trio: both are released through Honest Jon's Records and feature an electro-acoustic ensemble with Ripatti on percussion. Other members of the line-up are Sähko mainstay Mika Vainio, who handles electronics and processing, and live instrumentalists Derek Shirley and Lucio Capece (the latter of whom appeared on the Vladislav Delay's 2009 album "Tummaa"). Those two play double bass, bass clarinet and soprano sax. The album is mixed and produced by Ripatti himself. Artwork is arranged by Will Bankhead, with an original piece by Katharina Immekus. The Color of Pomegranates (Armenian: Նռան գույնը, Nran guyne) is a 1968 film directed by Sergei Parajanov and is a biography of the Armenian ashug Sayat Nova (King of Song) that attempts to reveal the poet's life visually and poetically rather than literally. The film depicts the poet's coming of age, discovery of the female form, falling in love, entering a monastery and dying, all framed through both Sergei Parajanov's imagination and Sayat Nova's poems. Actress Sofiko Chiaureli notably plays six roles in the film, both male and female. ACTRESS / RAINY DUB ( HJP61 ) A1. Rainy Dub A2. Faceless made in UK HONEST JONS RECORDS 2011

None of this material has ever been available before and has been painstakingly compiled and restored from over 400 tapes before being mastered at Dubplates & Mastering and cut at 45RPM for extra depth. Daphne Oram, founder of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, died in 2003 leaving a colossal archive of reel-to-reel tapes and documents behind. This important collection of material eventually made its way to Goldsmiths College, London, who have been administering it on behalf of the Daphne Oram Trust for the last few years. The collection holds over 400 tapes made by Oram during her lifetime, and 211 of those have been archived and catalogued by the college so far. “The Daphne Oram Tapes: Volume One” is the result of almost two years spent trawling through the archive in an attempt to piece together a coherent document of one of the most pioneering and genuinely experimental characters in electronic music history. Although some of Oram’s recordings have surfaced on the “Oramics” compilation, this set reveals a much more complex, dark, sometimes disturbing and often beautiful body of work which has, until now, been partially obscured by the more recognisable Radiophonic bleeps and whirrs the Workshop is best known for. This first volume focuses on Oram’s love of experimental forms, of Musique Concrète, of the science and mystery of sound and composition. It comes at a time when her work is only just starting to gain wider acknowledgment in scholarly as well as popular circles. The “Oramics” machine (the first electronic musical instrument in history to be designed and built by a woman) has gone on display at the Science Museum in London, an important step in what will no doubt be a sustained effort to assert Oram’s rightful position as one of the most important figures in modern music. Working through the archive has been a lifechanging experience, revealing a wealth of musical treasures that include recordings and sound effects made for ‘2001’ and Jack Clayton’s “the Innocents”, all the way through to field recordings made in Africa. This first volume, put together with the help of Goldsmiths and Daphne’s family, is the first in a planned series that will, for the first time, make Oram’s most important and personal recordings available for public consumption. ** Mid Century Electronica Pt.1 ***MyAtomicShadow - 2011/10/26 A short piece featuring my vintage, tube HP sine wave generators, tape loops and ring modulators with a photographic homage to the early pioneers of electronica....

There's a confidence and ability to these productions which elevates them above the masses of lo-fi synth meanderings currently murmuring in the underground, occupying the tantalising space between Eliane Radigue and James Ferraro, or Thomas Köner and Daphne Oram, creating a dialogue between their shared and opposing aesthetics to give an emotional response with deeply chilling and engrossing results. In 'Lithic Reduction' concrète textures grind like a millstone to release powdery clouds of analog dust, settling only to be dispersed by gusts of blackened distortion, whereas 'Red Binary' is distinctly electronic, revolving around muted radar bleeps like the resonance from SAW II soundtracking a speckly pill experience that's starting to go west. The album's centrepiece, the aptly titled 'Entropy' nods to the sublimely stoic work of Eleh, radiating microtonal bass shifts while a bitter northerly wind builds in intensity. Brilliantly out of place, 'Cyclic Redundancy' opens the flipside with a majestically submerged slab of completely obliterated and submerged 4/4, like an unholy collusion between Mika Vainio, Sandwell and Bernard Parmegiani soundtracking a trade union rave in the 1950's, before 'Even In Death...' conjures imagery of a eulogy given by a Mongolian throat singer with crows circling overhead.

His recordings as Muslimgauze, however, qualified him as one of the Western artists most explicitly slanted in favor of the Palestinian liberation movement. Since the Manchester native’s works were instrumental, most of the political statement was inherent in the packaging: witness titles such as Fatah Guerrilla, Return of Black September, Hebron Massacre, Vote Hezbollah, United States of Islam, and The Rape of Palestine. Jones’s output was so idiosyncratic and prolific that he would remix anything he was given to suit his purposes and recorded an album almost every week. Jones could have been a potentially controversial figure if his releases were available in anything except extremely limited editions—usually less than one thousand copies of each title. Despite their lack of prominence, Jones’s blend of found-sound Middle Eastern and South Asian atmospheres with heavily phased drones and colliding rhythm programs were among the most startling and unique in the noise and electronica underground. The Muslimgauze project ended tragically in 1999 when Jones died suddenly of a rare blood disease. A number of posthumous releases including Lo-Fi India Abuse (partially a collaboration with the dub collective Systemwide) and the 9-disc Box Of Silk And Dogs soon followed." -John Bush for allmusic.com http://www.muslimgauze.org/ http://arabbox.free.fr/ Muslimgauze - Harem Of Dogs (Maroon) **Artist: Muslimgauze / Song Title: Harem Of Dogs (track 4) Album: Maroon (2002, Reissue) Label: Staalplaat Muslimgauze http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Muslimgauze&oq=Muslimgauze&aq=f&aqi=g1&aql=&gs_sm=s&gs_upl=1483 9l14839l0l16307l1l1l0l0l0l0l182l182l0.1l1l0 *** OBATARA - VARIOUS / DRUMMING FOR CREATION ( T33.3 ) A1.

Profile: The group was formed in New Cross, south-east London in late 1981. All unemployed, and with listening tastes ranging from soul to classical music, they searched out whatever they could find to make music with, and for the most part this consisted of scrap metal salvaged from waste ground and derelict factories. The reason had as much to do with lack of money as it had to do with a dislike for conventional rock instruments. Originally, they used bass guitars and other conventional instruments, but these were fairly rapidly dropped as they obtained more industrial percussion, and found that these created a stronger and more consistent sound.

Tatlin's Tower **This is a QT movie of a virtual model of Vladimir Tatlin's Monument to the 3rd International - better known as Tatlin's Tower that I made. I researched the structure from original photographs, contemporary accounts of the making of the maquette and subsequent reconstructions and by actually making a model of the tower - It is true, tatlin was no engineer, the structure is more arranged than arrived at through calculation - although the angle of the gnomon and the pitch of the two spiral helixes are based on the dimensions of the earth. The actual sructure was never built, it was exhibited briefly as a large maquette. Should it have been built it would have been taller than the Eiffel Tower by 30%. I still have the original 3d model in dxf and dwg format (as well as a few others - no sketchup I'm afraid, it is too clumsy) if anyone would like to use the model for a project let me know.

( Gary Howell ) SILENT SERVANT BYETONE+SENKING RUSSELL HASWELL+FLORIAN HECKER MARK FELL Editions Megoからリリースされた最新の2枚の作品は、Iannis Xenakis が残した音楽的方法論「Dynamic Stochastic Synthesis」 にインスパイアーされて制作されている。一枚はHecker + Russell Haswellのコラボレート作品での楽曲 ”sound out of nothing”で、もう一枚はMark Fellの＂Periodic BRENDON MOELLER / CLOSE UP EP ( ANN012-ltd ) orbits of a dynamic system related to a knot＂だ。1970年代から1980年代にかけてヤニス・クセナキスが研究したその「Dynamic Stochastic Synthesis」とは、確率的な合成についての、個々のディジタル・サンプルを操作するために確率分布を使用するmicrosound合成へのアプローチで、エレクトロニックの楽音合成には様々な手法があり、Xenakisによる動的確率 (dynamic stochastic)合成のアプローチ探索には1.  波形生成への確率分布、2.  波形へ確率関数の乗算、 3.  複数の確率関数の時間に依存した加算による混合などの８つの戦略がある。 難しいことはさて置いて最近のエレクトロニック・ミュージックは、すべて過去の現代音楽やエレクトロニックの文脈に添ったインストゥルメント・テクニックによるサウンドを展開していて、一種の美術作品のようにも思える。勿論ジャケットアートや、場所や空間全体を作品として体験させるサウンドインスタレーションによる大掛かりな映像もその実験性を加味させてはいるのだが。革新的な音楽語法をみつけることもできなくて、音楽は再びまた絶対主義の、抽象性、革新性、象徴性に徹底したシュプレマティスムへの道を歩もうとしているのだろうか。そうした動きの中でも卓越したセンスを感じるのは、オランダ/アムステルダムのピール・シーマスによって1996年にスタートしたDelsinと、Rush Hourのロゴなどを手掛けているグラフティー・アーティストDelta Funktionenが主謀するそのサブレーベルAnn Aimeeレコードからリリースされた数枚のアブストラクトな技術偏重主義 + ロボット工学的ディープテクノやミニマルダブのインストゥルメント・テクニックと、ウラジミール・タトリンの｢コーナー・反レリーフ｣に似たロシアアヴァンギャルドや未来派を彷彿とさせるジャケットアートにみられるグラフィック/美術的センスだ ( 過去のブログにも数枚紹介しているのでチェックして下さい )。いまボクには、2012年の未来派たちのエレクトロニック・ミュージックと、あの悪夢のような80年代のインダストリアルノイズの、古代の洞穴の壁とまるで精神病者の手から来たかのような抽象音楽とが耳で交錯して鳴り響いている。そしてそれに加え空間を構成するサウンドインスタレーションの、オブジェや装置としての美術品としてオルタネーティヴに機能する音楽こそを、求めているのだ。 この2週間ほど80年代のTouchからリリースされていたnarodna/music from albania, macedonia & serbiaやVA/Travel、Va/ feature mist、The Nocturnal Emissions/drowning in a sea of blissなどや、陶器ケースに入れられたZoviet-France/Popular ar Soviet Songs And Youth Music、Teat Dept./Ecstacy Under Duressなどの80年代中期のカセットテープでリリースされた音楽ばかりをCDRに録音しながら聴いていることが多い。すべてがエレクトロニックな抽象的なサウンドコラージュといった作品で、それも多くがオブジェケースに梱包されていて美術品としても機能している ( 近いうちにブログにアップします ) 。購入したばかりのアルバムの中ではベストに推薦したいPinch + ShackletonのRooms Within A Roomに流れる魔術的グリッチノイズ・グルーヴを聴いていると、 80年代中期のインダストリアルノイズにみられたシャーマニックな世界とどこかで底通し共鳴している不思議を思う。 * ANN AIMEE / DELSIN RECORDS BRENDON MOELLER / CLOSE UP EP ( ANN012-ltd ) A.

Monks On The Run made in UK HONEST JONS RECORDS 2011 Pinch & Shackleton - Rooms Within A Room (HQ Video) **Music video for a track from the new Pinch & Shackleton album, on Honest Jons Records. Video created using filmed, treated archive and reshot early cinema. Been quite a delay on this video due to endless hours lost to rendering. The two dubstep pioneers at the top of their game. The deadly concision, the rhythmic punch and dramatic timing, the spry, side-to-side detailing of a cavernous stage, the crisp-biscuit vocal sampling and Middle Eastern percussion — together, their sound signatures are not so much totalled as squared. Truly an album, the music is multi-levelled — dark as anything at times, but engrossingly varied and emotionally shaded, always on the move. For The Wire this month, in a full-page review — 'a labyrinthine collaboration that rebuilds the dialectics of dubstep... a beguilingly well-delivered statement in a dialect that was sidelined in favour of the cult of bass or the fluorescent synths. A powerful retort to the comparatively crude hyperactivity of the post-dubstep landscape and a well-timed lesson in sophistication.' FACT - The collaborative album from Pinch and Shackleton has arrived. Back in February we reported that the two dubstep heavyweights were working on a project together, and now nine months on, details of an LP have emerged. The album, which will be available on vinyl and CD, is simply entitled Pinch and Shackleton, and features nine new tracks (one of them, ‘Boracay Drift’, exclusive to the CD edition), produced by the duo. Pinch and Shackleton is due out in December out now, and will be followed by a 12″ single release for ‘Boracay Drift’, backed with a remix by acclaimed techno artist (and recent FACT mixer) Morphosis. “The two dubstep pioneers at the top of their game,” declare Honest Jon’s in a press release. “The deadly concision, the rhythmic punch and dramatic timing, the spry, side-to-side detailing of a cavernous stage, the crisp-biscuit vocal sampling and Middle Eastern percussion — their sound signatures are not so much totalled as squared. Truly an album, the music is multi-levelled — dark as anything at times, but engrossingly varied and emotionally shaded, always on the move.” It’s Pinch’s first full-length offering since his 2007 debut, Underwater Dancehall, and the first from Shackleton since 2009′s Three EPs (though last year’s Fabric 55 was tantamount to an LP). G. H. / GROUND EP ( LOVE071 ) A. Ground B1. Albedo B2. Earth made in UK MODERN LOVE 2011 *Gary Howell Real Name: Gary Howell In Groups: Daughter Of The Industrial Revolution, PCB, Pendle Coven G.H. is Gary Howell, longtime associate of Modern Love as one half of Pendle Coven and sometime contributor to the HATE project. The "Ground EP" features Howell's first material produced outside of Pendle Coven and takes on a much darker, more stripped down aesthetic - making use of location recordings amassed over the last decade. The title track extends over 7 minutes from a solitary bass pulse into a slow, three dimensional industrial reduction heaving with uncomfortable bass weight and a sense of nervous expectation. It's like the bare, skeletal noise framework for darkest junglist hardcore stripped of its percussion - all bar a bass drum and intense shards of noise. "Albedo" has more of a swing to it, dominated by a growling bassline and the metallic clunk of disjointed percussion at odds with the squashed funk lurking somewhere at its core. The template is extended on "Earth", a brilliantly discordant club variant that sounds like an R&B mastertrack exploded into 100 constituent parts and put together not entirely in the right order. It builds and collapses into itself, a stylistic oddity that at one and the same time brings to mind Boards of Canada's re- working of Colonel Abrams' "Trapped" and the extreme frequency vortex of the Raster Noton label.

Mad Youth B. The Self mad youth suffering? shadows left behind in a sea of turmoil? limited white vinyl comes with a printed A4 insert made in UK SANDWELL DISTRICT 2011 http://wherenext.tumblr.com/ Sandwell District's LA ambassador returns to the label with two tripping Techno inductions. 'Mad Youth' conducts disciplined electronic voodoo on the A-side with layers of acidic synths, roiling, rolling bass and widescreen atmosphere to own the 'floor. Flipside, the outward energy is inverted into 'The Self', holding and sustaining a sci-fi Millsian tension akin to his recent soundtrack efforts or moments from his SITS series. Excellent. Long awaited solo return of Juan Mendez to the Sandwell camp. Finally we have a solo return e.p. from Sandwell mainstay Silent Servant and it doesnt disappoint. Juan sticks to his trademark sheering sound-scapes and clattering lo-fi drums to take us away once again, superb. Another solid slab of highly functional techno wax from Juan Mendez. The title is a dead giveaway for what’s going off - pure refined minimal techno. ‘Mad Youth’ goes to work with a Beltram ‘Places’ era/ Damon Wild early to mid period Synewave sound pallete. However what’s particularly evident is how the sound has been updated beyond the loop that provides the ridged framework of the track, to incorporate more advanced sound design elements which creepily hiss into the foreground making for both a body shaking and cerebral experience, constructed for big dark rooms with pummeling but crisp soundsystems. On the surface the percussive elements change very subtly with simple mutes and re-introductions of drum sounds. The eerie sustained string completes proceedings to make a super classy heads down, strobe and smoke fuelled cavernous space to submerge and become lost within. Deceptively simple in its construction yet highly potent. Flip the wax and what lurks beneath is ‘The Self’ which is slightly heavier and up a few notches on the BPM. Again the skeleton of the track is high on repetition with a heavy kick drum, crisp as hell hi-hat and gurgling bassline which lay the foundations for tripped out atmospherics to tastefully transport you into the twilight zone. Nothing in your face, full on intense here but subtle and extremely well crafted intoxicating dark dancefloor tracks. Comes on white vinyl (initial pressing I guess?) in current style inside-out Sandwell house sleeves complete with insert with loadsa gubbins about hypnosis plastered all over it. Yet another ace from Juan and the seemingly unstoppable Sandwell camp. ************ RASTER-NOTON BYETONE / SYMETA ( R-N 130) 1. Topas 2. T-e-l-e-g-r-a-m-m 3. Neuschnee 4. Opal 5. Helix 6.

One of the records that helped foster this progression was Byetone’s Death of a Typographer, which retained the steely austerity of previous work but grafted it onto the development and warmth of contemporary techno and electro. Thanks in part to a preceding 12″, ‘Plastic Star’, with some extremely club-friendly remixes, the album set out Byetone’s stall as potentially the artist on the roster who was best positioned to push the dancefloor-friendly side of the label further onwards. Symeta, although not a step back from this, is a sideways step instead. From the first clipped beat of opener ‘Topas’, it sounds like more of the same, but a more than cursory listen reveals that there’s something different going on underneath the trademark Raster stripped back percussion. The accompanying press refers to the “live” sound of the album, and to the influence that rock music and a “high-speed heavy metal session” had upon it. And whilst there are no covers of the Stooges as heard on sometime label mate Mika Vanio’s album from earlier in the year, there’s a definite feel of the tropes of live guitar music being played out through the machines. The end result, probably not that surprisingly, carries strong traces of Suicide and even the likes of Chris and Cosey or Joy Divison, with strong blunt riffs moving against creaking atonal dissonance on places before being leavened with restrained harmonies. ‘Neuschnee’, a highlight, drops the tempo down against a simple pulse, layered harmonium-like droning chords moving against the sound of metal. ‘Helix’ meanwhile, distorts a synth line into fuzzed out late ’70s tones that call and respond with a classic Raster beat and bursts of chords. As the album progresses, it dips further and further into the “live” sound, with the distortion increasing and the drums taking on a leaden, lumpen thwack. It’s here that things convince less, however – in moving the sounds, particularly the drums, away from the usual Raster click and slice austerity, they become familiar and almost trad sounding. After the preceding tracks and the intricate sound design of the rest of the material, hearing the hollow hit of something as seemingly pedestrian as a drum machine is a bit of a disappointment. Symeta is an interesting album, for sure – and a direction which will no doubt bear further investigation over more releases. It’s interesting to consider what an album like this would sound like if approached from the opposite direction, through a rock/metal standpoint – perhaps that might itself yield beter results next time round.

Senking Real Name: Jens Massel Senking - Hairline 23 C Senking - Black Ice Heavy 12" transmission on Raster Noton from Jens Messel following his mighty Pong LP of last year - and that album's ascetic, decidedly North European response to dubstep's low end theories. Though Tweek is a homage to the perennially anxious, hyperactive South Park character Tweek Tweak (honestly), the music is anything but jittery - rather it's a cool, controlled bass offensive, admittedly shot through with the requisite paranoia. The icily delayed drums, pinched chords and oscillating subs suggest Digital Mystikz re-tooled to soundtrack Tarkovsky's Stalker, while the eerie synths and spurts of noise bring to mind late 80s industrial and Senking's own noirish masterpiece List. Serious sh*t for those who know, cut nice and loud with DJs and skankers in mind. *************** RUSSELL HASWELL RUSSELL HASWELL+FLORIAN HECKER / KANAL GENDYN ( EMEGO 129 ) Vinyl A1.

RUSSELL HASWELL+FLORIAN HECKER http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=RUSSELL+HASWELL%2BFLORIAN+HECKER+&aq=f Iannis Xenakis - S.709 **S.709, for 2-track tape & at least 4 loudspeakers (1994) After composing GENDY3, Xenakis extended the GENDY program, adding the possibility of modulating the parameters of the dynamic stochastic synthesis algorithm. With this version of the program, Xenakis created S.709. S.709 premiered at a concert at La Maison de Radio-France in December 1994. Its title stands for Sequence 709. Sequence was the name that Xenakis gave to the sections created by the PARAG program. In a radio interview, Brigitte Robindoré, head of musical production at Les Ateliers UPIC, said about S.709: "It's unedited. It's unrestrained." It could then be inferred that S.709 consists of the output of only one PARAG program: it could be a PARAG section of 7 minutes in length. In this piece, the rapid and periodic modulation of the parameters creates voices that are constantly and widely fluctuating in pitch, amplitude and timbre. In the same radio interview, Robindoré mentions that S.709 "produces quite a polemical reaction in the audience." This is not surprising; this work is extremely original in its materials and in its construction; it does not resemble any other piece by Xenakis, nor any other piece that I have ever heard.

'That' Side written and recorded by Mark Fell flute - Jan Hendrickse mastered by Lupo mastered at Dubplates & Mastering made in Austria EDITIONS MEGO 2011 Mark Fell got into Acid Techno at an early age. You can hear it in some of his work. No matter how obtuse or difficult the material he puts out (and he’s well-known for putting out some challenging material) acid never seemed to be too far behind. Manitutshu is Mark Fell’s tribute to acid techno. The album is the third one Mark’s released in the course of the past few months. Usually artists tend to space things out a bit more evenly. Considering the several year hiatus he took from SND and his own solo’s work previous small output, it is a bit of a maniac release schedule. Manitutshu is a bit maniac itself. Right from the beginning you’re treated to a hyper-active sonic landscape. The first track pings and splatters around the eardrums. All the glorious funkiness and processing you’ve associated with Mark’s previous efforts is here in full. Despite the supposed nature of the work (these were original samples for Native Instruments) they hold together quite well. It’s Native Instruments loss since they rejected these pristine sounds. Actually, this may be Mark’s fastest work. Each piece blazes through its track length. For me the third track would probably be the most recognizable track. Others show a new path for Mark’s focus; particularly the fifth which evolves so startlingly fast. The ninth track even shows off a particularly aggressive approach unusual in Mark’s mellow world. Finally there’s the giant closer, a remix by Mat Steel. Some would consider this more “SND-like” in terms of its repetitive nature. I feel it may be more of a digital version of Zoviet France. The extremely slow and almost-industrial vibe the track gives off reminds me strongly of that seminal band. Overall, this may be one of my favorite things Mark has put out in some time. It is less abstract than “UL8” and more immediately graspable than “Multistability”. With Manitutshu, Mark shows us a little of where he may take his sound and SND project. http://www.markfell.com/wiki/ MARK FELL / ATTACK ON SILENCE ( LINE 037 ) 1. Untitled 2. Untitled 3. Untitled DVD - Sacred geometries, and their sonic equivalents, are said to mirror the micro and macroscopic structures of the physical world; the complex harmonies of the Tibetan singing bowl, like the patterns of the Mandala, allow access to the deepest levels of the consciousness inducing meditative states that transform the very being of their participants. In the modern reciprocals of these technologies the shift is one of teleology. The sacred metals and antique art of the singing bowls give way to the magic of digital synthesis as sacred geometry gives proxy to psychophysiology and the cognitive neuroscience of brainwave entrainment. Drawn from these sources—with mutual ambivalence—and realized through a distinct aesthetic minimalism, intricate combinations of form, color and sound are projected through a series of transitions, sometimes gradual, sometimes abrupt, sometimes giving way to sustained tones and repetitions. In a process of ever-emerging horizon—an attack on silence and a space for silence—the potential arises to be ensconced or alienated, a space for enchantment, for anxiety, for profound boredom or for reverie. Recorded at The Music Research Centre at the University of York (UK) and snd studio Sheffield 2007 and 2008. Contains both stereo and Dolby 5.1 surround audio options.

Zoviet France Profile: Zoviet France is an idiosyncratic collective of anonymous postindustrialists, dronologists, and pseudo-ethnomusicologists. Their investigations have taken them into fictional cultures where nothing is easily located and reality often slips into the hypnagogic. Having secluded themselves in Newcastle, England since their inception in 1980, Zoviet France have developed a radical relationship with the cheap technologies of old-fashioned tape recorders, homemade acoustic instruments, primitive looping and sampling devices, and basic dub trickery. From these machines, the collective has crafted a distinctly unique vocabulary of postindustrial sonic hypnosis. Just as Zoviet France's sound was alchemic reconfigurations of inexpensive technologies, their vinyl packaging literally covered their sounds with aluminum, roofing shingles and porcelain.

The releases of The Hafler Trio are primarily concerned with research and presentation of the findings that result, and as such are a coninually growing and evolving library - a source of stimulation to action - in direct opposition to the lethargic obsession with escapism provided by the means of entertainment currently available. The Hafler Trio are interested in three essentials only; the body, the mind, and the spirit. Everything else follows directly from these points and is contained within them. In short, The Hafler Trio facilitates interaction in an organic manner that is not directly coerced, but unless effort on the part of the recipient is engaged, the circle cannot be completed. Although The Hafler Trio was originally founded by Andrew McKenzie and Christopher Watson, the only member currently remaining is McKenzie. A third founding member, the scientist Dr. Edward Moolenbeck, turned out to be a fiction created by the other two. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Hafler+Trio&aq=f ALEISTER CROWLEY / ELEVEN ( GOETIA 666 ) A1.

I figured that I would start with John Bender, because back when I had my list of mp3s online, he was one of the most requested artist. And who blames people for asking! The records have long been out of print and are fetching stupid prices that go well above $200 for a copy. I do sort of keep my eyes open for whether it has been reissued or not, but at the moment, it doesn’t seem like it, so I’m thinking of starting a series of postings which will put some of my out-of-print collection online (that which I have with me, of course—I left most of it behind in the States) This record is overall a pretty cool early electronic record. I don’t know if John Bender actually influenced any current electronic artists, but you can certainly hear that he was doing some pretty cool stuff in the late 1970s and early 1980s that still sort of stands up well today…. These recordings were taken from vinyl and went straight to my HiMD recorder in the high-quality setting. I didn’t bother split up the tracks, but if you go to my Vinyl to HiMD collection and view Disc 7, you can get an the track listing and a small version of the cover. **** There isn't a ton of info out there on John Bender, so I apologize. This album is two tracks (Neither Side, and Nor Side [Side A & B of the LP]), with each track containing several songs. It's incredible lo-fi minimalist electronic groove. Reminiscent at times of a darker Bruce Haack (Haackula era more then anything), this album is super fuzzed out and surreal electronic goodness. Bender has a voice unlike any other. If you've never heard it, then get it. You'll thank me. I'm gonna upload some more Bender in the near future. "From Tapes 34 to 45, 1979-81.

Udder Milk Decay - Track 2 From:Head Heritage DDER MILK DECAY TAKE A TEAT Released 1980 ? on [no label] Reviewed by Al Telstar, 13/11/2005ce This album is one of my favourite and most mysterious LPs. The packaging itself is DIY at its most basic: Plain white jacket with spraypainted colour and the groups' name and album title rubber stamped on the cover. No date of release but I'm guessing early Eighties. The labels on the record itself are recycled and appear to be originally slated for a Saxon release on Carrere. There is a one-sided insert which carries the records information. There isn't much, so I can reproduce the entire liner notes here: "Take A Teat by Udder Milk Decay. Produced by Tim Hunkin and Jim Hunkin." Not very enlightening. There is a sculptor by the name of Tim Hunkin but when I emailed him regarding this album, he assured me that it wasn't him ("Good name though"). On to the music which is primitive lo-tech electronics at its best. The album starts with a short track, which sounds like plucked strings (could be a guitar or a harp or bedsprings for that matter); the second has Wasp-like whirrs, beeps, bloops and whistles that evolve at a leisurely pace which has some similarity to Nik Raicevic's "Head" album but less circular. Track three sounds like a radio tuning in and away from white noise. Track four? Like track two after a bulk eraser had a pass over the tape. Side two begins with a triple-speed recording of a conversation. I can't make out what the voices are talking about, but it does sound quite earnest. The lengthy second track suggests a BBC Radiophonic Workshop soundtrack for a stop-motion version of Dr. Who. The final cut features heavily processed sounds (a treated orchestral recording perhaps?) broadcast from a cavern. In the event of finding a copy in a used shop or thrift store: buy it as it is a curious and improbable album that isn't likely going to get the deluxe cd reissue treatment.

Track A6 is a live version of P.D.'s "Progressive Disco" (studio version on P.D.'s Inweglos LP, 1980), recorded by P16.D4 in Guntersblum Dec 1980, cut and processed (w/original P.D. vocal material) 3 years later; original version on Funk 2 / Audiology No. 3 C60 (Vox Man Records, A No. 3); reverse version on Musica Venenae C60 (XXX, 30); this is an edited and restructured version of the forward version. Track A7 started as "83" which was a version of some material used for "Dumpfes Begleitgefühl" (on Kühe in 1/2 Trauer) and was given to S.B.O.T.H.I. and transformed into "85"; this double-piece was the first result of the NNNN! project, but released later on Bad Alchemy Nr. 5 magazine w/ cassette (B.A. Nr.5), combined with a new recording: "86".

Track B6 first release on Strength LP (Azteco, A-003); this is a longer extract from the original improvisation. Track B7 was a project especially realized for compilations; it is based on 2 live-improvisations both recorded in January 1985 at the SB II, University Mainz; these two basic tracks were combined, processed and cut to 6 fragments, which were sent to different compilators; the track presented here consists of extracts from fragment 1 and 2 which were originally released on New Babel cassette (no label) and Phallophorie Two C90 (Reseau Phallus, RP 006). Track B8 consists of the same basic material later used for "Passagen-Kryptokontur" (on NNNN!); the original version was planned to be released on Ohrenschrauben LP (Dom, V-77-01), but there a reverse version appeared; the original version appeared one year later on Ohrensausen LP (Dom, V-77-03); this is a remixed and restructured version (Oct 86) http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=P16.D4&aq=f DIE FORM / ARCHIVES AND DOKUMENTS ( NORMAL 95CD ) 1-01.

Transforming found industrial items into designed, sculptural instruments, they forged a hard rhythm based sound, mixed with found sound samples and electronics. From their inception Test Dept created a unique performance enviroment using slide and film projections while reinvigorating disused industrial settings. The scale of the performance events began to rise and other working artists became involved under the umbrella of the 'Ministry of Power'. Collaborations were formed between filmmakers, sculptors, dancers and politically active groups, including the Miners in 1984/85, Printworkers in 1987 and Ambulance workers in 1989/90. Test Dept became renowned for producing epic scale site specific productions within Britain, such events included Arch 69 at Waterloo, 'The Unacceptable Face of Freedom' at Bishops Bridge Maintenance depot, Paddington, and Cannon Street Station in a continuing burgeoning relationship with TD were also commited to the 'grass roots' and toured extensively in Europe, in 1985 they became one of the only Western bands to breach the 'iron curtain' and tour in the Eastern block countries. In 1992 from the ashes of Test Dept Productions (an offshoot of The Ministry of Power) NVA was formed in Glasgow to focus on large scale productions. The remaining core of the group moved into the area of the underground dance scene, whose counter cultural values were to find themselves at odds with both mainstream musical values and the Government. The politicisation of the dance movement became official with the introduction of The Criminal Justice Bill to prevent large scale gatherings of both protesters and ravers. TD dissolved shortly after the release of Tactics for Evolution in 1998.

It involved the artist MALCOM POYNTER whose sculptures formed the basis for the award winning album cover. His work used toy soldiers and guns to sculpt large scale figures such as his awesome 'Horsemen of the Apocalypse'. It was also the name of a massive event held at BR's Bishobsbridge Maintenance Depot at Paddington to commemorate the demise of the Greater London Council (undemocratically abolished by Margaret Thatchers Tory Government because of its radical programme), it was the beginning of a flowering relationship between the 'Railway Children' and the National Railways. Decorated with Sculpture from Malcom Poynter, dance from legendary choreographer Jacob Marley and the Company of Cracks, poetry from the radical miner Alan Sutcliffe, script by playwright Jonathan Moore, directed by Teddy Kiendl, set designed by Tom Dixon (now head designer at Habitat), banners by 53rd State Banner Co, brass played and conducted by John Eacott of Big Band Loose tubes and 360 degrees audio and visuals from infamous soundman 'Mad' Jack Balchin and acclaimed directors Brett Turnbull and Martine Thoquenne, gymnastics and pyrotechnics from Ra Ra Zoo. It was a truly awsome underground event featuring the cream of talent of a generation. The Ministry of Power was born. It was the first ever 'rave' in the UK and is still the benchmark for large scale site specific work in Britain. http://testdept.org.uk/ ]]> POST-APOCALYPTIC ENTITY PART VIl – Bring an end - tag:www.nu-things.com,2011:/blog2//2.599 2011-10-30T19:53:12Z 2011-10-31T17:14:22Z 2011 11- 4,5,6 (fri,sat,sun) 19:00-23:00... 阿木 譲 2011年のドイツ、ヨーロッパ、イギリスでの音楽はひとことで言えばミニマルダブで始まり、インダストリアル・ダブで終わろうとしているように思える。ミニマルダブ、それらの根源は勿論93年のマウリツィオ・フォン・オズワルドのBasic Channelの薄暗いディープ・ミニマル・テクノの靄のようにフィルターがかかったダビー・ミニマル・サウンドに端を発し、そこからmonolake、shackleton、T++、scubaなどへと流れ、echocordレーベルでのvladislay delay、quantec、mike dehnerなど、デトロイトのDeephcord、echospace、cv313、アムステルダムのsomaレーベルでのdeepchord、イタリアのschermate、スペインのsemantica、イギリスのsandwell district、black ever black、modern loveレーベルでのdemdike stare、andy stott、miles、G.H.、へとながれ続け、先端でのsubtextの「enptyset」や、perc「wicker & stell」にみられるノイジーなインダストリアル/ミニマルダブへと現在も変容しながら進行形というのが大ざっぱな文脈だ。それにraster-noton系のalva noto、kangding ray、blixa bargeldなどのグリッチもハードグリッチともいうべき新種のダブへと変容しつつある。 このPOST-APOCALYPTIC ENTITY PART VIl – Bring an end -の3日間では、今年発売されたすべての素材をブリコラージュするのは、素材の多さに時間が足りなく不可能かも知れないが、できるだけ正確な文脈に添って展開したいと思っています。時間があればネオ・クラシシスム、ウィッチ系の音も付け加えるかも知れません。2011年がどんな時代であったのか、この３日間で総括しボク自身もDJイングしながら再確認しようと考えています。音楽におけるシンクロニシティー、そのことで浮かび上がって来る音楽の夢や空想に現れるある種の典型的なイメージ≒集合的無意識 ( 時代意識 )には、おそらく来年から再来年にかけての、我々の明日が預言されているのではないだろうか？ だとしても、「Master Therion（マスター・テリオン）《大いなる獣》」が徘徊するこのアポカリプティックな終末の暗い夜は決して明けることはない。 Suum Cuique / Midden ( YoungAm 002 ) A1.

There's a confidence and ability to these productions which elevates them above the masses of lo-fi synth meanderings currently murmuring in the underground, occupying the tantalising space between Eliane Radigue and James Ferraro, or Thomas Köner and Daphne Oram, creating a dialogue between their shared and opposing aesthetics to give an emotional response with deeply chilling and engrossing results. In 'Lithic Reduction' concrète textures grind like a millstone to release powdery clouds of analog dust, settling only to be dispersed by gusts of blackened distortion, whereas 'Red Binary' is distinctly electronic, revolving around muted radar bleeps like the resonance from SAW II soundtracking a speckly pill experience that's starting to go west. The album's centrepiece, the aptly titled 'Entropy' nods to the sublimely stoic work of Eleh, radiating microtonal bass shifts while a bitter northerly wind builds in intensity. Brilliantly out of place, 'Cyclic Redundancy' opens the flipside with a majestically submerged slab of completely obliterated and submerged 4/4, like an unholy collusion between Mika Vainio, Sandwell and Bernard Parmegiani soundtracking a trade union rave in the 1950's, before 'Even In Death...' conjures imagery of a eulogy given by a Mongolian throat singer with crows circling overhead.

Emptyset - Return http://youtu.be/Wi926hSzyqY http://www.myspace.com/emptysetmusic http://www.discogs.com/artist/Emptyset Album Emptyset / Demiurge Label / Subtext Cat # / SUBCD001 Released / May 2011 Style / Techno, Noise, Experimental Rating / Reviews powered by Latest album reviews Kuedo - Severant How abstract can you make techno and still call it techno? How noisy can you get before it's all washed away in a torrent of fuzz? These are the kind of questions Bristol duo Emptyset pose with their second album, Demiurge, a pulsating storm of distorted frequencies that occasionally takes the shape of intelligible beats. Demiurge is a move, conscious or not, towards outright accessibility even though it mostly abandons their eponymous debut album's more distinctly beat-oriented structure. The pre-album single "Altogether Lost," released on techno label CLR and represented here in instrumental form as "Point" is the best indication of Emptyset's new sound. "Altogether Lost" played backing track to a frantic sermon from Underground Resistance MC Cornelius Harris, but it remains electrifying on the album as "Point," becoming more fierce with every intensifying bar. Remixed by Chris Liebing and Ben Klock among others, the techno connection becomes more obvious. The momentum and energy that characterized "Altogether Lost" wasn't just a fluke, and it powers Demiurge from the inside, creating a surprisingly propulsive album in the process. Techno isn't the only reference point. The low-end bombs in "Tangent" are redolent of Scorn and early dubstep, and the way each track methodically repeats in odd formations with unremitting focus owes something to dub music as well, territory both Emptyset members are no doubt well-versed in. The determined cycling of each "chord' progression numbs the pain of serrated frequencies. Even when the pain threshold is crossed—as on the harsh tunnelling of "Monad" or the white noise screams of "Plane"—the tracks simply burn themselves out. For territory that would usually be so unapproachable, Demiurge seems designed for easy consumption: songs rarely breach four minutes and the album registers at a scant forty minutes. It's allows the duo to be as abrasive as they need to be without sacrificing an audience. It's simultaneously cohesive—keeping the same palette of sounds across the board—and refreshingly mutable for this kind of conceptual conceit, with more melody and variation than you might expect from your typical noise album. And while it's hard to pick out individual highlights, that's part of the album's unique success. Demiurge is a song-based album with no real songs. Those attracted to recent strains of techno aligned with early industrial—Perc Trax, CLR, Ancient Methods—will find as much to love in Demiurge as those more inclined to extreme sound design. ]]> Put a period time has come / Bring an end tag:www.nu-things.com,2011:/blog2//2.598 2011-10-27T08:51:32Z 2011-11-02T06:21:13Z Put a period time has come / Bring an en... 阿木 譲 音楽の世界を取り巻く人間やミュージシャンは、趣味で音楽と関わっている人間ばかりといってもいいほどで、贔屓目に見てもそのイヴェントや音楽も素人趣味の域を抜けきれていないつまらないものばかりだ。それでもヴェルヴェルジンのニコのような鋭いプロ意識と感性を持った逸材と巡り会うと、このニッポンでも新しいものを生み出せる可能性もあるのではないかと思いnu things JAJOUKAというコミュニティの場を作ったのだが、だけど、状況は、音楽も人間も、すべてがもう手も付けられないほどの末期症状を呈し始めている 。「断捨離」とは"人生や日常生活に不要なモノを断つ、また捨てることで、モノへの執着から解放され、身軽で快適な人生を手に入れようという考え、単なる片づけとは一線を引く"という意味だが、不必要なレコードを全て売り払うことから始め、過去のボランティアのような音楽人生や、人間関係においてもこうした「断捨離」の考えを実践して生きて行くことに決めた。 人生のエピローグ ( 終章 ) へと続くひとつの大きなピリオドを打つ時がきたようだ。 昨夜は数人のミュージシャンとDJたち、nu thingsのブッキングで関わってくれているミュージシャンの外人友達やガールフレンド、懐かしいロックマガジン時代の知人の顔もみられ、平日の寒い中ありがとうございました。Andy StottからSuum Cuique ( Demdike Stare ) " Midden " →monolakeのダウンなシャーマニックグルーヴの流れと、Emptyset "Demiurge "からAlva Noto" Univrs "のハードグリッチの流れが、自分で回していても鳥肌立つほどに衝撃的だった。 **言葉足らずなので追記しておくが、ソーシャルネットワークやツイッターの時代。その匿名性や実体のなさをすべて否定しているわけではないが、音楽の世界などに関わる必要もないど素人の才能もない人間がサウンドクラウドやmyspaceなどで自分の作品を発表したり、イヴェントを催したり、5、6枚のCDRを作ったことでアーティストぶってることのバカバカしさを、強く感じている。他者との関わりもなしに、ミュージシャンとしてのアイデンティティを確保しようとする、なりすまし音楽の現実。このことにボクは最も失望してしまったのかも知れない。« Twitterやブログ世界では、個人と集団、実名と匿名、公式発言とパロディ、公式サイトとファンサイトなどが入り交じっている。ネットとは、中央が全体計画を行うような世界ではなく、より有機的でプリズム的なコミュニティであり、自分自身を常に進化させ形が変わり続ける世界なのだ ( クリストファー・プールmoot ）» こんな主張は、80年代のインディペンデントの思想ですでに頓挫したものだ。それにTwitterやネットの世界もすでに管理され情報操作の手が入っている。いまこそ過多の情報の海で、なにが必要で必要じゃないのか、どれが真実で真実じゃないのか、自分の感性と確かな目で見極める時だ。しかし時代はまたあの80年代の軽薄短小の時代に逆戻りしている。ニューウェイヴとビートのパロディ。アゲアゲの乱痴気騒ぎ、ダサい音楽の氾濫する時代がまたやってきたようだ。 ]]> Blackest Ever Black tag:www.nu-things.com,2011:/blog2//2.597 2011-10-17T14:52:07Z 2011-10-30T22:43:11Z Blackest Ever Black - Reime + Regis Mode... 阿木 譲 RAIME - REGIS / IF ANYWHERE WAS HERE HE WOULD KNOW WHERE WE ARE * Second Edition ( BLACKE002S ) 先端音楽は、30もの年月を経てもなお、風化し皺だらけになった、こんなにも病的なロック・ロマン主義に、なぜまた再び戻ろうとするのか。ベーシック・チャンネル→Ecospaceなどのミニマルダブ、→モノレイク ( Monolake ) やT++、シャクルトン ( Shackleton ) のテクノ・シャーマニッ ク、→ アポカリプティックなミニマル・インダストリアルとでも形容したいサンドウェル・ディストリクト ( Sandwell District ) → ブラッケスト・エヴァー・ブラック、 → [Perc Trax] からアルバム『Wicker & Steel』をリリースしたPERC、→ モダンラヴのAndy Scott → Milesの流れは、2011年にテクノが流れ着いた自然な文脈なのだ。それどころか最新のテクノはすでにロックイディオムへ回帰しようとすらしている。先端音楽でのPost Apocalyptic Enittyの運動は、よりリアルな様相を呈してきているし、啓示がもたらす最後の審判 ( アポカリプス ) の未来 ( 時 ) を生きている。 3.11以後、脱原発とかなんとか、情緒溢れたエセ・ヒューマニズムに傾れ込むひとびとの、自分の家族だけ幸せならいいというような生活態度に触れるたびに、キミにかける言葉すらも見失ってしまう。それに未来に希望を抱けなくなった若者世代が景気低迷や債務危機、東日本大震災をきっかけにこの社会の構造的矛盾に気づき始めているし、世界は終末に加速度に動き始めている。さて最近のボクの心境といえば、「 物言えば唇寒し秋の風 」につきる。サックス奏者・矢野沙織が放射能を含んでいる可能性のある作物の一切を口にはしたくないと、福島産の放射能汚染された野菜を「百姓が可哀想だから作物を無理矢理食べ被爆しないといけないのか」という発言をしたことが、物議をかもしているが、他にも鉢呂経産相「 死の町 」発言のどこに謝罪しなければならない理由があるのだろうか。東京に住む賢明なひとならすでに西に移住しているご時世だというのに・・・。ただひとこと付け加えるなら、原発を黙認してきたボクらのような若くもない人間は汚染食品を口にする覚悟は決めることだ。ジタバタしてももうすでに手遅れなんだ。 イギリスの西部にあるウェストミッドランドの首都圏地区にあるサンドウェルは、サンドウェル・ヴァレーにあるサンドウェル小修道院に因んで名付けられたのだが、その近くのスワンプールという池では蓮の花が咲くという。蓮の花 ( 蓮華 )は、「女陰」の象徴でもあるが、泥から生え気高く咲く花、まっすぐに大きく広がり水をはじく凛とした葉の姿が、俗世の欲にまみれず清らかに生きることの象徴としてとらえられ、「蓮は泥より出でて泥に染まらず」という諺が中国にある。いまは、言わぬが花／言わぬは言うにまさる／沈黙は金。 ** BLACKEST EVER BLACK RAIME - REGIS / IF ANYWHERE WAS HERE HE WOULD KNOW WHERE WE ARE * Second Edition ( BLACKE002S ) A1.

'If Anywhere Was Here He Would Know Where We Are' is another side of hugely evocative dread minimalism, all suggestive tones and ghoulish rhythms writhing somewhere between Dubstep and ritualistic industrial zones. If anything this track offers less melody and even fewer stylistic signposts, while equally creating a greater space for the arcane mind to inhabit. In a stroke of A&R genius, the label has also secured one of Regis' finest remixes of recent years o'er on the flip - and coming from some of his biggest fans, we don't say that lightly. Versioning 'This Foundry' from the 1st 12", Regis dowses for the darkest Techno substance, wading chest deep in dank, fetid and ethereal ambience while propelled by a current of subs-driven steppers techno drums more akin to Shackleton than anything you've heard from him before.

The resulting piece, an interpretation of Stevenson’s Samoa years conveyed by tone colour alone, is a forty-minute sonata which will appear in due course as a limited-edition CD released by Agi’s Nu-Things label, backed by Nakamura Yasuyuki from Studio Warp http://youtu.be/Y9tRxtCByQo momus http://imomus.com/ ]]>
