themilkfactory.co.uk - Feb 2003

themilkfactory.co.uk deliver another fine selection of reviews. [The summaries below are taken from a Milkfactory.co.uk e-mail, to see the full reviews go to the link above]


ALBUM OF THE MONTH
Echoboy - Giraffe

Two years after his compelling Volume 1 & 2 albums, the man who was
once courted by Noel Gallagher to join Oasis releases the heart-
warming yet edgy pop record he's threatened to release for years.


Asa-Chang & Junray - Tsu Gi Ne Pu

Follow-up to last year's amazing Jun Ray Song Chang, Tsu Gi Ne Pu
continues the sonic experimentations of the album, as the band
combine ancient and modern music forms.


Black Dice - Beaches & Canyons

Totally unexpectable and uncontrollably chaotic, Black Dice blur the
boundaries between hardcore, post rock and electronic. Beaches &
Canyons is a truly disturbing and beautiful record.


Sylvain Chauveau - Un Autre D�cembre

Stripped down to its bare essentials, the music of Sylvain Chauveau
is revealed here through minimalist piano pieces, sometimes supported
by quiet glitches. Released on Fat-Cat Record's avant-guard label
130701, Un Autre D�cembre is a powerful record built on silences
and emotions.


Clue To Kalo - Come Here When You Sleepwalk

With this first album released under his Clue To Kalo, Adelaid's
Mark Mitchell takes the counter-current of electronic music with
perfect little pop songs and instrumentals.


Mouse On Mars - Rost Pocks

Released just on time to celebrate ten years of services to society
from German techno pranksters Mouse On Mars, this album collects for
the first time the duo's early EPs.


Pet Shop Boys - Disco 3

Third installement in the Disco series, the Pet Shop Boys find
themselves at the heart of the electo revival and embrace once again
the most experimental side of their project.


Pram - Dark Island

Masters at the art of delicately crafted pop, Pram present with their
seventh studio album a darker, more twisted side of their world.


Tennis - Furlines

Two years after the release of their second album, Tennis, aka Benge
and Si-Cut.db, return with Furlines, on which they further develop
their minimal soundscapes. Accompanying this release is a collection
of remixes from tracks taken from Europe On Horseback.

If I were an editor of a weekly music magazine this week's front cover would feature: Super Numeri

This week's front cover choice is Super Numeri. On February 3rd, Super Numeri release an album, Great Aviaries on Ninja Tune.

Super Numeri specialise in journeys into music that recall Miles Davis' seventies experiments and the work of Can without seeming beholden to either. The results are langorous soundscapes, with a use of live instruments and spiky intelligence which take them a million miles from lazy "ambient" music.

Coming on like the best bits of Can, with a dash of Miles carefully seasoned with eccentricity that only the English can do properly. Beautiful, glorious and deep this album gets better and better.

Also reviewed @ Cmu Online

Available to pre-order @ 101CD for under 8 quid.

Black Dice - Beaches & Canyons

Musique Machine review

Black Dice - Beaches & Canyons

It is almost a relief to realize that this album is finished, since Black Dice's exploration into new worlds of sound textures is gruelling for the listener. But the same listener will also realize that we've just heard one of the most talented bands that emerged the last years, and certainly one of the most effective in experimenting with guitar rock. While other bands fail to put their pretentious music in a coherent package, Black Dice gently fits the sounds and tunes together, while maintaining an organic feeling. As an almost unreal reality, Beaches & Canyons is an impressive tour de force that will blow your mind. Yes, other more influential press reports said it already. But I say it again: Black Dice is f**king brilliant.

This album will be issued in the UK on FatCat records on February 17th.

Arcana

Musique Machine review Arcana - Inner Pale Sun

Available to buy @ Music Non Stop

Arcana - Inner Pale Sun

CD. Eagerly anticipated follow up to ''The Last Embrace'', Peter Pettersson returns with a new full length record ''Inner Pale Sun'' where the strings flow as gently as ever, and where the rolling drums and the sonority of chimes accentuate the various moods spelled out by the music. The added, haunting, heavenly female voices further transport the compositions to even more celestial spheres. This albums stands as magnificent proof that Arcana are back in a leading position among the host of bands within the romantic / ethereal fringe of the darkwave scene. Full Tracklisting : ''My cold sea'', ''Lovelorn'', ''Icons'', ''We rise above'', ''Innocent child'', ''Song of the dead sun'', ''Season of thought'', ''Closure''. Released 6th January 2003. CMI.

Serie Noire: Dark Pop And New Beat

A compilation that was released late last year on Eskimo Recordings [that I should have mentioned before] : Serie Noire: Dark Pop And New Beat

Serie Noire: Dark Pop + New Beat
(Eskimo)

With early 80s underground dance music unquestionably the key source of inspiration for today�s fast growing alternative new electro scene, Belgium compilation outfit Eskimo have chosen wisely on this, their latest and best yet mix CD.

Featuring a fantastic selection of underground gems from the pre-house club scenes of the early 80s, Serie Noire is a hugely listenable collection of funky, brooding, melodic dance music including John Carpenter�s cult movie soundtrack Assault on Precinct 13 and Vicious Pink�s 8:15 To Nowhere (Vicious Pink being the erstwhile backing singers on Soft Cell�s Sex Dwarf). Also adding quality are New Order frontman Bernard Summer, whose production of Section 25�s Looking From A Hilltop mixes machines with scary synths) and Sting, providing the lyrics to Will Power�s Adventure In Success life lesson.

Prog rock heroes The Alan Parsons Project also make an unexpected though welcome appearance, delivering a pure disco, electro groover (an instrumental of Mammagamma), paving the way for A Split Second�s original Ibiza anthem, Flesh which became a hit in 1987 after Balearic DJs started playing it at 33 instead of 45.

Serie Noire: Dark Pop + New Beat is a fine collection of superbly chosen underground disco records that�s both contemporary and easy on the ears. Release date is December 16.


Genre: Classic electro/disco

Track Listing:

1: LOGIC SYSTEM �UNIT�
2: THE POOL �JAMAICA RUNNING�
3: WILLPOWERS �ADVENTURES IN SUCCESS�
4: ALAN PARSONS PROJECT MAMMAGAMMA�
5: A SPLIT SECOND �FLESH�
6: SNOWY RED �EUROSHIMA / WARDANCE�
7: SECTION 25 �LOOKING FROM A HILLTOP�
8: JUMP �FUNKATARIUM�
9: METRO AREA �MIURA�
10: MY MINE �HYPNOTIC TANGO�
11: GRAUZONE �FILM2�
12: VICIOUS PINK 8:15 TO NOWHERE
13: EXCUTIVE SLACKS �THE BUS�:
14 JOHN CARPENTER �THE END� (FROM ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13)
15: KISSING THE PINK �BIG MAN RESTLESS�:
16: CARLOS PERON �NOTHING IS TRUE, EVERYTHING IS PERMITED�
17: C CAT TRANCE �SHAKE THE MIND�

He was the living embodiment of electronic music - pale, nerdy, fond of sci-fi jumpsuits and executive jets. By the mid-Eighties he'd lost everything but now, 25 years after his first hit, he's cooler than ever, a defining influence on a new generation of pop stars. How on earth did that happen?

Sir Dupermann

On the Norwegian Smalltown Supersound label, an album by Sir Dupermann is released tomorrow in the UK.

SIR DUPERMANN - SIR DUPERMANN (STS062CD) CD

This is the debut album by J�rgen Tr�en aka Sir Dupermann, Norwegian super producer (producer for among others Jaga Jazzist, Magnet and Sondre Lerche) and and the man behind the Duper Studio (home of R�yksopp, Kings of Convenience, Jaga Jazzist et. al.). After years with hard production work he deceided to finally concentrate on his own music, and finish the longtime work with his debut album.
Smalltown Supersound heard 2 tracks of his pre-production recordings, and was blown away! The label signed a deal right away. The last 6 months Tr�en has stayed in London where he has produced his selftiteled debut album. The album has become a masterpiece. Out of the wildest chaos of sounds and rythms, Tr�en has created a pop album. Very compromiseless pop though. But even though his soundworld may sound chaotic, it is also very structured, detailed and complex. Tr�en has managed to turn chaos into beauty. With his fantastic production skills and his arsenal of machines, he has created an organic and warm sound, and a soundworld all of his own. "Sir Dupermann" is a mastodon of an album; mindblowing, different, timeless and truly orginal.Tr�en`s rich and diverse sound is a result of his involvement with lots of different projects and scenes, both as a producer and as an artist. He has worked with everything from harsh noise, contemporary music and grim black metal to pure pop and electronic music.The album mixes elements from Cornelius`s and Plaid`s electropop, Fennesz` and Jim O`Rourke`s abstract electronics, the European free-jazz tradition of Derek Bailey and Evan Parker, sound effects from cartoons and movies, Aphex Twin, Lou Reed`s "Metal Machine Music", the avantgarde sound of Karlheinz Stockhausen and John Cage, Q-Berts turntableism, Luc Ferrari`s musique concrete, Kid 606s electronic punk, Merzbow`s digital noise and the micro/click-scene around Mille Plateaux. Everything performed with the unpretentious attitude of punk rock. "Sir Dupermann" is wild, beautiful and obsessive!

This Week's New Releases @ Boomkat

This week's new releases @ BOOMKAT - A PELICANNECK ELECTRONIC MUSIC STORE include:

Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto - Vrioon - Raster Noton

Where to begin with this? Its not often that we�re left gasping for breath, desperate for an extended vocabulary to enable us to describe the sheer simplicity and loveliness of a piece of music, and the effect that it�s had on us, the listeners. �Vrioon�, quite simply, is a work overloaded with beauty. The blue, heartache solitary Piano of Sakamoto bleeding into the micro-constructions and nano-beats of Carsten Nicolai�s rewired machinery. "During his first live tour in Japan, Carsten Nicolai met Ryuichi Sakamoto in Tokyo. One year later Nicolai was asked to remix material from Sakamoto for the Japanese magazine Code Unfinished. '...The material that was given to me was already layered with digital effects. From one little clean piano piece I made the first track. I combined those simple piano chords with a clear rhythm constellation. Somehow Ryuichi was very surprised and really liked my work. Weeks later he sent me another piece recorded specifically for this project .� The result is an interwieve of tracks that is quite simply breathtaking, a melange of pure cathartic piano progressions and whispering beats, a re-definition of minimalism and intelectual application into something that is quite clearly open and exposed to a spectrum of emotion and daydream loveliness. Immense.

Venetian Snares - Winter In The Belly of a Snake - Planet Mu

The return of Mr Funk with his first assault on the masses for the new year, displaying quite a staggering versatility and way with the digital venom. Opening track �Dad� is excellent, the required syncopation of beats, discordant keys and tumbled out breaks is suddenly interrupted by the voice of the Snares singing, an expected dose of vitriol and sarcasm delivered in a way that�s somehow frightening and moving at the same time.....think of a dark variant of Windowlicker, Confield and Tom Waits rolled into one fabulously original beast of a track for an idea. �Gottrahmen� is more elongated : a layering of found sound sets the background to a cinematic chorus that�s interlaced with industrial distortion and ambient effects that never quite manage to detract from the widescreen, eerie feel at its core. �Cashew�, meanwhile, is a masterclass of beat construction and splicing, a slow mangle of percussion flowing through bass pad progressions and a crescendo of intense breaks and choral interjections that employ metallic effects and chilling mathematical processes that just cannot fail to move and jerk. Having been universally acknowledged by pretty much everyone on the scene as the new kid on the block, the natural successor to the dominant IDM elite, it seems that Venetian Snares has once again unleashed an album varied, spannered and original enough to merit him the adulation he is set to enjoy to ever more terrifying degrees of madness in the very near future. Large.

Hexstatic - Listen & Learn - Ninja Tune

Killer mix CD from Lord Ninja's in house graphic crew Hexstatic. Not just known for their massive light installations and image manipulations Hexstatic have in Robin one hell of a talented deejay. 'Listen & Learn' really only has Coldcut's Journeys By DJ for company, a doper 50+ minute mix utilising Man Parrish, Ike & Tina Turner, Young MC, Toots & The Maytals, Grandmaster Flash, Incredible Bongo Band, Boards Of Canada ('Aquarius' with funny seventies astrological voiceover) and Shirley Bassey, all mixed up into a seriously intoxicating blend. Wildly inventive and funky fresh from start to finish. Acquire, rapido style.

Norken - Blue Divide Remodelled - Hydrogen Dukebox

The second in the series which sees Lee Norris (this time operating as Norken) being reinterpreted by artists who have found him through the internet and turned out inspired and imaginative productions from studios as far afield as Russia, Croatia, Japan and America as well as the UK. �Blue Divide (Remodelled)� is a reworking of Norken's two classic albums ('Soul Static Bureau' and 'Spring Themes') which came about as a result of brief conversations of appreciation and inspiration that developed into friendships and have now become regular brainstorms via the Neo Ouija chat room. The end product is a fusion of Detroit-ian nuances, pulsing and sighing house, lush soundscapes and warm, blissful ambience, blending sounds that will please the ear and warm the heart. Remixes come courtesy of Tom Churchill, Alex Johnston, Aii, Rabbits and loads more. Very nice indeed.

Stakker - Eurotechno - Rephlex

Aphex�s Rephlex label has dabbled in early dance music before with their re-issue of 808 State�s classic Newbuild ep, now they turn their attention to the early Future Sound Of London incarnation, Stakker. This is an original soundtrack to Eurotechno, a multimedia project from 1989 and the music is pretty damn good to say its over 13 years old. There is a heavy dose of 303 acid across the tracks, the 909 also makes a few appearances, it�s almost like an old school mash up with Mr Fingers, Joey Beltram and DJ Pierre all tweaking their boxes. In between the acid and obligatory 4/4�s are mad inserts, vocals, sound effects and general all round madness that break the tracks up. Most of the tracks are very short, just acid loops and beats, and there is no tracklisting, as it�s all mixed in - making it hard to navigate for highlights. There are a few gems on here that will be well worthy of a replay, the acid lines getting themselves into your head, nostalgia for the heyday of raves setting in before you know it! Rephlex like to surprise and also to stimulate, and they have a bit of a coup on their hands with this. Both the vinyl and CD feature the same music, the CD splits it up into 21 tracks and runs for just over 25 minutes, whereas the vinyl splits up into two long tracks. A very tasty package from Rephlex and Stakker, and just a warm up for the ace �Humanoid Sesssions� due out very soon. Check!

The Stereonerds - HD Endless - Rather Intersting

Killer rude brand new Rather Interesting title and one of the best new additions to the catalogue in a long time. 'The Stereonerds' might be John Bryant and Tad Davis from Melbourne or they might be Uwe Schmidt in Santaigo, Chile if Atom's homour is anything to go by. So imagine the style of Atom Heart that flips your head up, with the most devasting beat splising and serious body rockin' electro twist up chao's. A continuation of 'Hard Disk Rock (Don't Stop)' and 'Space Boogie' from 'Real Intelligence IV'. Kicking off with 'F.U.N.K.' a manifesto cutting up old school electro samples with deadly sharp digital beats and the lyrics 'funk is what you don't play, it's the space between the event's' - imagine Atom Heart jamming with The Soft Pink Truth and Prince, 'Electronics' is deadly spacious digital electro funk, repeat buzzing noise, crisp keys, deep beats. 'Harddisk Rock' is a re-edit of the original, pitched down with a different flow to the mighty first cut. Still drop dead funky, with blitz keys and the classic vocal refrain. 'I Hear A New World' has full lyrics, over more spaced out crunch beats and Krartwerk synth drops. 'Transhuman Melody' is like early Sheffield industrial funk, you can almost hear Phil Oakey lurking in the background - dirty. 'Prazision' is equally as crushing and possibly my favourite track on this album, perfect downtempo hip hop structures and sinister vocals. Finally the truly wicked 'HD Endless' that clock's in at 15 mins - killer future Kraftwerk anthem. Mighty RI CD to file next to Brown, Erik Satin, Lisa Carbon, Senor Coconut and Roger Tubesound. Essential.

V/A Rough Trade Shops : Counter Culture - Mute

Rough Trade Shops launch a new series of releases, bringing together their personal selection of favourite tunes from 2002. Featuring over 40 tracks from the likes of Akufen, Electric Six, Melt Banana, Edan, Prefuse 73, Bis, Tom Waits, ESG, Cabaret Voltaire, Schneider TM and our very own Bitstream among many others.

V/A Wanna Buy a Craprak - Car Park

Wonderful label showcase compilation from New York's always nice Car Park records. With tracks from Kid 606, Hrvatski, Marumari, Greg Davis, Casino Versus Japan, Safety Scissors Vs Kit Clayton and Signer + more. Exclusive offerings start with those Californian sunshine click kids Freescha, So Takahashi's next up with warm metallic dronescape variations and then we have Takagi Masakatsu's wistful toytown drums and breezy melodics. Taken from forthcoming Car Park releases are Greg Davis's genius 'Brocade', an eloquent cycle of reflective acoustic guitar tones interspersed with analogue distortion and a nod to Steve Reich and Ogurusu Norihide's beautiful psych folk electronics a la Nagisa Ni Te. The exclusive Hrvatski track really makes this comp a winner, 'Equinox' showcases even more of Keith Fullerton Whitman's talents - a gentle ambient guitar loop sequence wooden block beating beats slowly unravels into bright blue post rock with the sweetest distortion imaginable. Superb. Plus they've added four exclusive Quicktime videos from Marumari, Takagi Masakatsu, Jake Mandell and 242 Pilots. One seriously good and eclectic compilation at a very nice price.

Alejandra & Aeron - Bousha Blue Blazes - Orthlorng Musork

The founders of Lucky Kitchen, Alejandra Salinas and Aeron Bergman release their first recording for Sue Costabile and Joshua 'Kit' Clayton's Orthlorng Musork imprint. Another special once only project based around family recordings in a similar way to that of the Diskono released 'Love Album'. For this their latest work, �Bousha Blue Blazes�, they branch into a more acoustic musical field with the help of Aeron�s grandmother Elaine Ruth Pope, or Bousha as her grandchildren know her. Being a singer all her life during a recent visit to Alejandra and Aeron at their home in Spain for Christmas 2001, the trio decided to play music together. The result is a peaceful haunting, yet respectful blending of voice, electronics, guitar, piano and recordings of the Spanish Christmas season. The optimism of old christmas blends with the optimism of new technology. This music is sometimes sad, sometimes romantic, but always alive -- two generations coming together to gently blaze sounds. Another fine album from the Lucky Kitchen axis brought to you by the ever fascinating Orthlorng Musork

Tiga - DJ Kicks - Studio K7

Following a parade of successful mix CDs (Mixed Emotions, American Gigolo), a top ten hit with �Sunglasses at Night� and soldout DJ dates worldwide, this latest DJ Kicks features tracks from Soft Cell, Martini Bros, Codec & Flexor, Le Tigre, Charles Manier, Sir Drew, 2Raumwohnung and many others.

The Majesticons - Beauty Party - Big Dada

The long awaited return of Mike Ladd's hip hop concepticians, now adapted as The Majesticon's the immortal rotobotic terrorising enemy of The Infesticons. Forget the concept, 'Beauty Party' is a remarkable album - future hip hop scenario's imagined by the mad genius visionary Mike Ladd. There's even a touch of N*E*R*D in the lyricism, pop and r'n'b glitches like the most spangly stuff on the last Antipop album. Def Jux allstars emcee's Vast Aire, El-P and Murs also feature bringing the critical hip hop elements. Bombs on first listen are 'Fader Party' with the dj skills of Fred Ones and 'Prom Night Party' killer party action that sounds like the sequel to 'Ghostlawns' by Antipop shacked up with The Sugarbabes. 'Majestwest Party' features Murs spitting dope dirt rhymes and 'Suburb Party' find El-P and Vast Aire 'jacking ho's in volvo's' - sick bomb. Killer no holds barred hip hop opera on crack. This album is the bomb.

Laika - Lost In Space (1993-2002) - Too Pure

Laika are not an �electronic� group in the usual sense of the word, yet they meld and twist samples with the best of them. The first CD features selected tracks from the bands three albums and a track from the deleted Volume / Warchild releases. The second CD features rareties from singles and compilation albums, remixes and radio sessions, along with an unreleased new recording. Check.

The Sea And Cake - One Bedroom - Thrill Jockey

The Sea and Cake 's sixth album, �One Bedroom� , is elegant pop. Membrane like layers of electronic tones, delicate synthesizers surround intricately woven guitars. Melodic bass lines punctuate these restrained and complex sounds. Songs are propelled by imaginative percussion lines and shaped by spare warm vocals. Sam Prekop�s lyrical style is poetic as opposed to narrative. Paradoxically, the resulting album of delicate precisely constructed songs sounds effortless. After Eight years, the Sea and Cake lineup remains the same: Sam Prekop (vocals and guitars), Erik Claridge (bass), John McEntire (drums), and Archer Prewitt (guitar). Their musical vocabulary is greatly expanded by their other artistic pursuits. Erik Claridge has been working on a solo album as well as his continuing painting/ illustration career, part of which is a regular insert in the Chicago Reader. Archer continues to create his Drawn and Quarterly produced Sof� Boy comics. Prewitt additionally released a solo album entitled �Three�. John has engineered numerous records in his own Soma Studio, while McEntire has also managed to make time to start recording a new Tortoise album as well as play a collaborative performance at the Thalia Theater with Ikue Mori and Zeena Parkins. Sam Prekop, with whom most songs originate, has had several painting shows including a solo show at Clementine Gallery in Chelsea. Prekop has also continued to pursue photography, it is his photo on the One Bedroom cover. The Sea and Cake is a group of active individuals whose experiences add to its vibrant palette of sounds, tones, and textures.

Windy & Carl / Landing - Split Album - Music Fellowship

The sublime Windy & Carl finally release their tour CD with fellow americans of driftsome post rock bent Landing. To say that Windy & Carl's 'Untitled' 15 min + track is epic is to do it a disservice. It's truly mind expanding without the acidic drug fuelled nonsense you'd associate from such a description plus it's heartbreakingly beautiful. For a headphone trip to take far away from the bust and rumble of modern life then I recommend this track on repeat play ad infinitum. After the immenseness of the Windy & Carl piece, Landing can only be described as a blissed out comedown. Three tracks to sooth the soul. Hand painted card sleeves by Windy Weber. Highly rated and very warmly recommended by ourselves and some of our fellow business buddies. Dive in.

Supersilent - 6

New on the Rune Grammofon label, an album from Supersilent:

This is set to be one of the finest albums of the year. Rave reviews all over in the Norwegian press on the new Supersilent album.

Also in The Wire, [new February edition] there is a feature on Supersilent. In May, Supersilent will be performing in the UK.


Supersilent - 6

Supersilent have been a solid cornerstone in Rune Grammofon since the very beginning and are seen by many as the very essence of the label. From the monumental hardcore blizzard storms of "1-3" to the elegant electrojazz of "4" and the almost quiet soundscapes of "5", this new album is where the sum of all things Supersilent comes together in a shape of almost epic proportions. Like "1-3" and "Scorch Trio" it was recorded at Athletic Sound in Halden, Norway. More than ever it appears clear that their music lives in a no man�s land between the genres, somewhere between rock, electronica, jazz and modern composition. As with all their recordings and live performances, everything here is improvised. That most of the music on "6" appears to be written or at least arranged, is testament to the high, almost telepatic level they work at . Needless to say, there are no overdubs. Often being labelled jazz because of the improvising aspect of the music and the fact that three of the members come from a jazz background, with "6" they are just as likely to attract followers of bands such as Goodspeed You! Black Emperor, Sigur R�s, King Crimson, (late) Talk Talk or Popol Vuh.

This is released on February 10th in the UK, see Amazon.co.uk

If I were an editor of a weekly music magazine this week's front cover would feature: Tok Tok

[Late with this feature this week !]

This week's front cover choice is German electro band, Tok Tok

From UKclubbing.com

Toktok release their debut album, Toktok vs Soffy O, on January 27, through eastwest/Code Blue Records. Toktok vs Soffy O extends Toktok�s electronic vocabulary - a digital soundscape of shifting moods made up of diverse material - and shows a different side to the band, with the Toks abandoning their Teutonic detachment for new fashioned rock and roll, an electroclash mash up of drums and synths. The album includes the collective�s infamous debut single, �Missy Queen�s Gonna Die� and the new single �Day Of Mine (Ludicrous Idiots)�, which will be released on February 17.

Super Numeri - Great Aviaries

Kudos records provide info on a forthcoming album on Ninja Tune from Super Numeri:

Super Numeri - Great Aviaries

At last, from Liverpool come a group who seem to owe absolutely nothing to the Beatles. Super Numeri specialise in long, intense journeys into music that recall Miles Davis' seventies experiments and the work of Can without seeming beholden to either. The product of a unique communal collective, the results are langorous soundscapes, with a use of live instruments and spiky intelligence which take them a million miles from lazy "ambient" music. Self-avowed avant garde traditionalists, the three core members of Super Numeri gathered together ten others for the making of a record which they describe in the following terms: "Sometimes it's ugly. Sometimes it's immensely beautiful. At all times it's high and glorious!" Listen to a new sound coming from an old place.

This album is released on February 3rd.

Clearlake - Cedars

I notice that Clearlake's new album Cedars is picking up some additional interest, partly due to the producer Simon Raymonde ex Cocteau Twins. I never listened to Clearlake's first album Lido released two years ago, as there was something about the vocal style that didn't appeal from the few tracks played on Xfm.

Clearlake - Cedars is released on February 3rd on Domino.

Press release Anglo Plugging

Their debut �Lido� was highly acclaimed (9/10 NME, Album Of the Month MOJO, ****Q) and won them fans as diverse as Jarvis Cocker, Stephen Malkmus, Mark & Lard and The Delgados. They played dates with Elliot Smith, appeared at Scott Walker�s Meltdown, broadcast live from Abbey Road and made a celebrated appearance on BBC�s Later.But that was then. Very little you thought you knew about Clearlake will have prepared you for the power and depth of Cedars, their second album for Dusty Company/Domino.

The thrilling Almost The Same, disturbed and witty Mind Is Evil, chilling I�d Like To Hurt You, uplifting Treat Yourself With Kindness, moving Trees In The City - and seven other songs of an equally high standard - each pay testament to the quality of this beautiful album, conceived by the band in France and Brighton and produced with former Cocteau Twin, Simon Raymonde.

Jason Pegg�s incisive songs explore subjects rarely visited articulately in pop since peak-period Smiths - madness, death, loss, self-loathing and self-healing among them. The outlook may occasionally be overcast but it�s offset by the tremendous therapeutic clout of gorgeous melody and forensically observed lyrics.

Clearlake also boast an expanding palette of raw and evocative sonics: guitars that describe small orchestras of feedback, woozily-arranged strings, chiming antique pianos and rich, layered vocal harmonies all recorded with a garagey bravado. �We�re constantly trying to find the exact mid-point between raw chaos and Tin Pan Alley,� says Jason. �We want to offer the opportunity within every song to go somewhere special. We always aim really high. Even if we occasionally miss our target, we always land somewhere interesting.�

Cedars has landed somewhere marvellous. Enjoy your stay there.

This Week's New Releases @ Boomkat

This week's new releases @ BOOMKAT - A PELICANNECK ELECTRONIC MUSIC STORE include:

V/A - Ai Records : Estate - Ai

At last kids, the first sampler on the fabulous Ai imprint is finally back with us, bringing to an end the almost daily flow of emails sent our way asking when, why and if it�s made a re-appearance. ok ok ok...its back in , shut up now! Much has changed since �Estate� first dropped back in 2001, the label has gained a dedicated following and is fast setting itself as the most desirable, collectable and x-factored label following in the footsteps of Skam and Toytronic in delighting, surprising and frustrating the kids with limited editions, hand-printed sleeves and artists that are well and truly their own. The label has delivered two samplers to date � �Estate�, and �Produce�, each expanding on the philosophy of sound that has extended from tough electroid tweaks to the most delicate of soundscape constructions. The next few weeks will see the release of �Leisure� the third label sampler, and a tremendous extension of styles and attitudes that will set the label in good stead for a year which is pretty likely to be gigantic for one and all concerned. New and emerging artists on the label, like the simply superb Claro Intellecto, are already being spun and rotated by an ever-extending family of DJ�s from Skam to our overenthusiastic office spinners, and more is set to come. �Estate�, meanwhile, is a perfect introduction to the Ai sound, from Yellotone�s evocative blend of guitars, skittering percussion, muffled trumpets and widescreen marimba-esque patterns on �When We Danced�, to Aidsbot 2000�s awesome electroid decimations and rewired glitch hiccups on �Foreshadowing of Fallen Youth� , to Normal�s piano-laden tweaked electronic pulse on the sublime last track �Rain�. 12 tracks in total, take a deep breath and watch things go mental......

Juan Atkins - Timeless Mix - Metroplex

The living legend and Grandaddy of Detroit releases a mix worthy of his status. The Essential Metroplex mix contains tune after tune of homemade Detroit genius ranging from early gems such as Juans own �The Chase�? and X-Ray�s �Lock it down�? right through to the latest Model 600 �Update�. Also taking in classics such as the sublime �Celestial Highways�? by Drexciya�s Gerald Mitchell and the raw beats of Aaron Carl�s �Down� plus the club classic �Game One� by Orlando Voorn and Juan Atkins under the Infiniti name. What a way to finish a Detroit mix by ending with the outstanding �Jazz is the teacher� by Jaun and Maurizio from Basic Channel. There are 21 tracks in total, the mixing is spot on, with a couple of corrections throughout the CD giving an authentic and not too clinical feel to the whole mix, but with a list of tunes like this who cares! An outstanding testament of Detroit techno from one of the men and labels who changed the face of dance music forever, Genius.

V/A Electronic Music For Heroes 02 - Hydrogen Dukebox

Ludicrously cheap and rather good sampler compilation on the Hydrogen Dukebox label, featuring a selection of �old, new, borrowed and blue� tunes from the Black Dog, Metamatics, James Hardway, Norken, A1 People, Technova and more. Check.

Dorine Muraille - Mani - Fat Cat

Sweet French folk singing, double bass and piano melodies are cracked and refracted through laptop processing. Drawing on folk traditions, yet exploding these into fractured new forms, Dorine_Muraille exists alongside peers like Fennesz or Oval, whilst creating something genuinely new and distinctive, a kind of �ketamine laptop folk�. Despite being anchored by traditional song-forms, the listener�s perception of time and space becomes jarred and disrupted through the slurred chaos of collapsing details. From light and pretty melodics to sprawling, chrystalline soundscapes of constant change to fiercer squalls and storms, these chaotic, fractal tracks are mixed in with four ultra-sparse, barely-there piano sketches, each acting as a kind of brief decompression chamber, a calm space for reconditioning the ears. Dorine_Muraille has also collaborated with Japanese singer Noriko Tujiko (who records for Mego), and has planned a remix collaboration with Scott Heren (Prefuse 73) under Heren�s Savath+Savalas alias .

Muslimgauze - Uzbekistani Bizarre and Souk - Imprec

Something of a grail for hardcore 'gauze collectors, at last the music from this hitherto DAT only release is made available in a more usable format. Comfort care packaging, with imprinted letter press makes this a worthy addition for anyone concerned, not withstanding the fact that inside lies some of Bryn Jones' most extreme, challenging and arguably, best work. Not every Muslimgauze is essential, but this stands out as a particular highlight.

Pram - Dark Island - Domino

It�s Domino�s 10th anniversary this year and what better way than to kick it off than with a band that personify the little things that make Domino and it�s roster so special. Pram's �Dark Island� is a concept album steeped in the wonderful and weird and takes in the odd and solitary lives of a windswept seaside town in winter. Pervading all is a sleaziness, a dark underbelly captured by slinky guitar, drunken clarinet, brazen horn, sinister strings, heavy dub bass, mesmirised samples, hypnotising vocals & mournful trumpet. But the trademark breezy pop is still alive and well, the instrumental glamour of theramin opener �Track of the Cat� and the gorgeous �Paper Hats� will ease the darker edges. Check.

If I were an editor of a weekly music magazine this week's front cover would feature: Kinski

This week's front cover choice is Kinski who release their new album, Airs Above Your Station next week (at least in the US) on Sub-Pop.

Seattle's Kinski imbibe copious quantities of avant-rock's intoxicating brew, only to spit back with confidence a new brand of heady, forward-thinking music that defies any easy reference. After two full length releases (Spacelaunch for Frenchie and 2001's critically acclaimed Be Gentle With the Warm Turtle), the band caught the ear of Sub Pop and have become the label's latest signing. As luck would have it, Strange Attractors was asked to help bring the vinyl version to life. We are extremely proud to release the double LP format of Airs Above Your Station, Kinski's massive, genre-bending third album.

Airs Above Your Station is by far Kinski's grandest acheievement. Cresting a frothy wave marrying textured ambient drone, space-gaze sonic swells, death-defying volume dynamics and melodic, lysergic guitar riffs with balanced precision, Airs Above Your Station takes Kinski's own interpretation of psychedelic rock a giant leap farther into the outer reaches of orbit. Every song is dynamic, monumental, HUGE, composed to seemingly be their last. From the opening warm drones of "Steve's Basement", percolating gently towards a rendezvous with fat & heavy acid-punk chords, Airs Above Your Station makes an ecstatic trajectory across a variety of textures, alternating between pillowing sonic passages doused in effects and pummeling, bowel-wrenching volume. No other compositional rock band makes the leap between 70's cosmic like Cluster and Brian Eno, classic innovators like Loop and My Bloody Valentine, to today's crop of dynamos like Mogwai and Bardo Pond with such skill and originality.

Kinski have constructed an album of fantastic depth and detail, with material so utterly epic, it easily reaches far beyond anything this band has released to date.


The CD Version of the album is being released by Subpop

Official website for Kinski

The album is available to pre-order as an import from Play.com

BBC One World to broadcast from renowned Oslo club

More Music from Norway! Music Information Centre Norway

>>>>>>> BBC One World to broadcast from renowned Oslo club


14.01.2003

Oslo club Bl� is the focus of the BBC radio show One World this weekend. Tune in and listen to Nils Petter Molv�r, Sternklang, Oslo Athletico, Bj�rn Torske and much more.

Under the leadership of Guru Gilles Peterson, the BBC One World has gained status as a standard setting programme for new, eclectic, genre-pushing and innovative music. The same adjectives can be applied to much of the vibrant activity on the Norwegian music scene, and it is obvious that this development is about to reach a wider international audience. One World has a tradition of discovering thriving scenes that will make a future impact on the international scene and now it seems likely that Norwegian electronica performers and producers are in for more exposure.

Saturday 18/1 will see BBC recording the special edition of long standing club night Sunkissed. On stage we find some of the genre's top Norwegian performers:

Nils Petter Molv�r is undoubtedly one of Norway's best known jazz performers. His unique mix of beats and improvisation has proved to be standard setting.

Sternklang is a veteran on the Norwegian club scene. He has released three albums and toured domestically and internationally over the last six years.

Bj�rn Torske and Per Martinsen are veteran DJs from Troms�, and have been around since the conception of Norway's club culture in the late eighties. The two are still as vital as ever and will play an energetic mix of old and new.

Olav Brekke Mathisen is a renowned house producer which is rapidly gaining international status. International notabilities such as Doc Martin have taken Mathisen under his wing as a protege.

DJs Strangefruit, G-Ha and Olanskii represent the finest of Norwegian vinyl skills. They have been around for over a decade but still manage to renew themselves and play immaculate mixes of the latest stuff.

Oslo Athletico is quirky electronica from DJ gurus Hi-Fi Haavik and Tore Jazztobakk.

On/Off is Jazzland Records' latest signing which comprises Patrick Shaw-Iversen and Raymond C. Pellicer � Nils Petter Molv�r's DJ.

BBC One World producer Paul Thomas will record the Sunkissed session, and is also heading for Troms� and Bergen to interview key figures on the Norwegian scene, gather new music and capture the zeitgeist of Norway today.

The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs supports the One World Bl� broadcast.

The recorded sessions will be aired on three two-hour programmes on One World in February


According to BBC One World the first show is:

Annoying term of the year: The "New Rock Revolution," which translates into "Past-it Rock Scribes' Nostalgia Trip." Like it all you want, but exactly what is "new" or "revolutionary" about rehashed '60s garage-rock and/or '70s blues-rock?

aquarius records new arrivals list #153

Aquarius Records new arrivals list #153, includes:

IKEDA, RYOJ - op. (Touch)

We're used to hearing clinical clicks from Japanese electronic composer Ryoji Ikeda -- so what's this then? 21st century classical, all acoustic stringed instruments, no electronics at all?? Yes, and it's great. With help from Belgian chamber-prog group Art Zoyd, Ikeda has crafted a gorgeous soundtrack-like suite of droning string bliss, that's far from the chopped-up aesthetic of his earlier use of orchestral elements in the electronic realm.

Two years ago, Ikeda released "Matrix" -- an amazing double cd split between pure sinewave aggrevation on one disc and smooth, post-techno click 'n' grooves on the other. While that album was the conclusion of a trilogy of electronic works that also included "0 Degrees Celsius" and "+/-," it remains unclear if the arrival of "op." also marks a disavowal of electronics altogether (as good as this is, we hope not). While the German avant-garde ensemble Zeitkratzer have done very well for themselves in translating electronoise works by John Duncan and Merzbow into atonal orchestrations for classical instruments, Ikeda's "classical" debut bares little resemblance to anything he's done in the past. No cyclical pulses. No clinical precision. No irritants to speak of. Instead, Ikeda's compositions for strings (one piece for 9 strings and the rest for quartet) gracefully glide in and out of complex timbres, with plenty of breathing room in between all of the harmonic tones. Indeed, the closest resemblance to Ikeda's past work is how initial attack of bows on strings can sound uncannily like the electronically-generated tones on the sinewave half of "Matrix"... Soon they reveal themselves for the acoustic orchestra instruments they are, Ikeda apparently using them to tap into the emotions of sadness and majesty, which rock musicians also have appropriated from romantic composers. Yet, with its stoic simplicity and stately pacing, "op." also mirrors the fascination that fellow minimalist Bernhard Gunter holds for Morton Feldman and Luigi Nono, although Gunter's approach has remained within the scope of sampling and hasn't yet arrived at full blown orchestrations.

As beautiful and compelling as Ikeda's "op." is, Ikeda has to ask himself how he can build a language that not only reflects back upon successes of his previous electronic works but also understand the peculiarities intrinsic to this form of composition. He's already issued vague statements about his electronic works building "invisible patterns filling the listening space." Is this a strong enough bridge between Ikeda's electronic masterpieces and the possible future for other classical compositions? Only time will tell...



SONNA - Smile And The World Smiles With You (Temporary Residence Ltd.)

This is sadly the final album from the wonderful instrumental quartet from Baltimore. Sonna play the most complex quiet music we've heard in a long time. The drums and shimmering cymbals are forefront in the mix and are so tight, delicate, and careful. The two lead guitars quietly weave in and out of each other making melodies even more sweetly pretty by way of the resulting harmonies. The guitars sound frail but the combination of the two makes them strong as spider silk. And there are real dynamics here, carefully thought out shades of color and mood. A post rock band that delivers. Recommended. In fact, this is the first Sonna album that Allan has even admitted to liking!
