This album is like two in one - one industrial and the other fun electronica.

Agitated Atmosphere: Chicago Underground Duo – Age of Energy

Mar 2, 11:54am KEXP Blog
Agitated Atmosphere: Chicago Underground Duo – Age of Energy As major labels continue to exist behind the times, artists and labels with little capital and lesser reputations are producing some of the most innovative, interesting, and inspiring music. Whether it's creating a new niche in digital technology or looking to once obsolete formats, Agitated Atmosphere hopes to pull back the curtain on a wealth of sights and sound from luminaries such as Chicago Underground Duo . For 15 years, the output of Chad Taylor and Rob Mazurek has come to represent the underground of Chicago from which the [now] duo [...]

Jozef van Wissem & Jim Jarmusch

Feb 25, 1:01pm MrBungle
Jozef van Wissem & Jim Jarmusch Jozef van Wissem (geboren te Maastricht, wonend in New York) poogt al een aantal jaren de luit te bevrijden van haar middeleeuws stramien, met een aantal prachtige en evenzo sfeervolle albums tot gevolg. Wanneer we filmmaker Jim Jarmusch naast hem op de hoes van Concerning The Entrance Into Eternity zien staan, krabben we ons even achter de oren: een vreemde combinatie. Denken en luisteren we verder, dan zien we eigenlijk twee stijlen die perfect bij elkaar passen. Beiden delen een liefde voor muziek, [...]

The Arts (Avant Garde) by Mause [Mickey Factz]

Agitated Atmosphere: Decimus – 4, 8, and 9

Feb 10, 12:00pm KEXP Blog
Agitated Atmosphere: Decimus – 4, 8, and 9 As major labels continue to exist behind the times, artists and labels with little capital and lesser reputations are producing some of the most innovative, interesting, and inspiring music. Whether it's creating a new niche in digital technology or looking to once obsolete formats, Agitated Atmosphere hopes to pull back the curtain on a wealth of sights and sound from luminaries such as Decimus . Private pressing are a marvelous occurrence; a brave endeavor that allows a musician to test their boundaries through a limited amount of media. So few are able to hear the [...]

2x Richard Youngs

Feb 5, 3:16am MrBungle
2x Richard Youngs Nee, dit is geen beknopte samenvatting van mijn eerdere bericht , in augustus vorig jaar. Richard Youngs is écht een artiest die meerdere platen per jaar kan uitbrengen en daarnaast telkens weer iets bijzonders weet te creëren, bijzonder genoeg om er opnieuw over te typen. Core To The Brave en Amaranthine zijn mijn laatste aanwinsten met Youngs' naam erop. Core To The Brave komt uit bij Root Strata en valt vrijwel direct op door zijn agressiviteit. [...]

Download: Doe Paoro - "Born Whole"

Doe Paoro - "Can't Leave You": SXSW Showcasing Artist
If you haven't heard Brooklyn-based artist Doe Paoro yet, the thing that will catch you off guard immediately is her voice. And I'm going to guess many listeners will be separated as to whether or not they enjoy it. Turns out that Paoro's singing style is based on her study of Lhamo—a vocally acrobatic Tibetan-style opera—that she discovered while traveling alone through the Himalayas . That sounds like a superhero origin story. Her new album Slow To Love will be out February 14th, but you can get your first listen of Doe Paoro's [...]

Demodé – Le Parole al Vento (Autoprodotto, 2011)

Jan 29, 8:47am Indie-eye // re-censore (k.o.c.)
Demodé – Le Parole al Vento (Autoprodotto, 2011) Per una volta ritengo sia stato giusto buttare le parole al vento, negare che la loro esistenza sia fondamentale. Perchè comunicare non necessita sempre di parole, e se fosse possibile anche quello che provo ascoltando questo disco lo vorrei trasmettere per emozioni, il primo e fondamentale mezzo di comunicazione che l'uomo abbia mai provato. Ma in mancanza di supporti digitali fantascientifici che rendano ciò possibile, proverò a trasmettere al meglio quanto i Demodè hanno buttato giù in questa manciata di tracce strumentali, impacchettato in una confezione dai toni celesti e intitolato appunto Le Parole al Vento .

The Infant Cycle - A Mysterious Disc (2012)

Jan 17, 2:36pm Dying for Bad Music Blog
The Infant Cycle - A Mysterious Disc (2012) Experimental, Avantgarde, Soundscapes The Ceiling The Infant Cycle is Jim deJong from Canada. I know him since the beginning of my own musical struggles. We released stuff together and I always admired him for his creative use of sounds, the arrangement of atonal found sounds to musical structures, the mystery around him and his records. We lost the contact somehow, but I found a news [ This is the summary, read the whole story on Website ] DFBM Releases [...]

R.I.P. Richard Lainhart – February 14, 1953 - December 30, 2011

Jan 3, 2:58pm Dying for Bad Music Blog
ambient, electronica, soundscapes, drone exovo Sadly, on December, 30th 2011, electronic music composer, filmmaker, and sound engineer Richard Lainhart passed away. I learned about Richards work, especially White Night, because we both were part on the great compilation I, Mute Hummings by the ExOvo label. And later Lainhart released the full length White Night album, which is a beautiful droni [ This is the summary, read the whole story on Website ] DFBM Releases [...]

Gentle Friendly – Rrrrrrr EP / The Shake Up

Dec 14, 2011, 6:20pm Some Of It Was True!
Gentle Friendly – Rrrrrrr EP / The Shake Up As much as the expression's strange, it's easy to see why South London duo Gentle Friendly 's sound is described as "junked up". Their songs can sound at time like a hastily-glued-together set of sounds and vocals spat out at random by a sample machine: jarring and jagged. But gradually these noises become easier to digest, as if one as has attuned to the frequency, or learned the language. A new-ish mini-EP, Rrrrrrr , is out now on Upset The Rhythm , featuring these two numbers... Speakers by gentlefriendly [...]

Rosemary

Dec 5, 2011, 1:21pm Musik Mig Blidt
Rosemary Den 6. december udgiver den halvt iranske, halvt danske elektroniske duo Rosemary deres debut EP A Persian Tale. Udgivelsen er en fusion af det moderne Skandinavien og halvfjerdsernes Iran, af disco og electro­nica, højfrekvent avantgarde og regulær pop. Det fungerer sublimt, og jeg kan derfor varmt anbefale udgivelsen. EPen består af seks originale tracks, der vil være tilgængelige som gratis download på duoens hjemmeside og betalende download på iTunes. Den bliver desuden udkomme på vinyl i starten af det nye år. Udgivelsen følges op meden række remix af prominente artister fra ind og udland, herunder bl.a. danske Kasper [...]

New to Us, New to You / Shenandoah Davis

Dec 2, 2011, 7:37am Draw Us Lines
New to Us, New to You / Shenandoah Davis Words by Jim Oh man, you gotta love it when a band has the genre label "avant garde" next to their name. You can best bet that what you're about to listen to is either going to be absolutely awful or strikingly beautiful and interesting. Too often it's the formal and not the latter, but once and a while we got lucky right? One time I went out on a limb and listened to the absurdly avant garde Antony and The Johnsons , hesitating ever so slightly as I pushed play, preparing myself [...]

Interview: Paul Catten on Medulla Nocte, why he went avant-garde, and "the plan to make a record that everybody would really detest"

Nov 29, 2011, 7:45am Thrash Hits
Murder One "Answer to Everyone"
We appreciate that some of our readers might not have heard of Paul Catten - he has, after all, been making music for longer than some of our readers have been alive. For those of us in our late 20s and beyond though, Paul Catten first became known to us as the frontman of the notorious and furious [...]

Do What Busdriver Do

Nov 21, 2011, 11:58am The Tape
Busdriver is one of rap's strangest figures, but he's exceeded his weirdest offerings with his newest track, "NoBlacksNoJewsNoAsians." The first single from his upcoming Beaus$Eros is somehow both engaging and alienating, hammering home the "No Blacks, No Jews, No Asians" thesis over a post-disco-esque frantic assault of a beat. "Number 22 the sex offender Google [...]

BEAUTY & GAP TOOTHED WOMEN

Nov 21, 2011, 10:24am Wine & Bowties
It was a couple of weeks ago now when Ryan came into my room eager to show me a video he refused to preface. "Just watch it," he said, "Just watch it." It took about a year to load, but once it did, I was astonished by the subject matter. I don't want to give away too much here, but it really goes to show how far one could take the art of documentation.

Video: Lykke Li - "Silent My Song" Live on Letterman + 3-Songs from "Live on the Moon"

Lykke Li - I Follow Rivers (Live on the Moon)
Lykke Li, joined by First Aid Kit on background vocals, performed a chilling and gothic version of "Silent My Song" from her latest album Wounded Rhymes on the Late Show with David Letterman. While this track, which closes the album, isn't even one of the stronger songs on the collection, her and the Söderberg sisters manage to haunt the Ed Sullivan Theater. I'm also posting the complete three song "Lykke Li Live from the Moon" performance from this past Spring. Lykke Li - Official Site [...]
