2012-01-19T23:16:00.000+01:00

I received a number of comments and a number of private e-mails. Thank you all for it. I am doing some thinking, which is never easy. Re-uploading through say Mediafire is a good ideam but I'm not sure if I would want that. For all we know Mediafire gets shut down also. But if anybody re-ups anything anywhere and send me the link, I'll post it. It has also been suggested to create torrents for things like what.cd, but I am a bit wary about that. Sites like that work by invitation only and you get banned if you don't meet your ratio. That's exactly why I have this blog. I want everybody to hear this without any limitations. Same goes for demonoid and such like. Also a forum has been suggested, but I have no idea if that's what I want, or how to put torrents on there. So I still have no idea. This thinking process might take some weeks and then we'll see what happens

The Rosebuds - The Rosebud Mystery (tape, 1995)

2010-09-24T12:49:00.003+02:00

This was not so much a side-project of Dull Schicksal as a precursor of AA Kismet, the band that tried to make' accesible' rock music, something that Dull Schicksal always loathed. (allthough it was not sure if they were aware of that). So some songs here were played at DS live-sets, and some ended up on the first AA Kismet album. This band -the name Rosebuds slightly reflected the urge to please- never pleased i mean played live officially but they were part of a theatre piece in the Rotterdam theatre Lantaren/Venster that played a week or so, made by Eveline Ketterings (she sings a few songs on the tape under the name of 'Rosy Rosebud') (forgot the title of that play, sorry). People that play on the tape except Eveline are; Frank van Berkel, Clemens Cillekens, Ronnie Krepel and Lukas Simonis. It was chosen 'tape of the week' (or month, forgot that too) at some incredible influential dutch magazine( forgot which one, sorry for the last time). The last song is missing! (i'm not apologizing for that) The tape broke.

Au Pairs - Live 1983 (tape, 1983)

2010-09-08T11:43:00.000+02:00

Another live recording from Au Pairs, according to the tape cover their last concert. I have no idea where this was recorded. From wikipedia: "The Au Pairs were a post-punk band who formed in Birmingham in 1979. Music historian Gillian G. Gaar noted in her history of women in rock that the band mingled male and female musicians in a revolutionary collaborative way as part of its outspoken explorations of sexual politics. Their first album Playing with a Different Sex is considered a post-punk classic with strong, sarcastic songs like "It's Obvious" and "We're So Cool" taking a dry look at gender relations. Other songs, such as "Armagh" with its refrain,"we don't torture" took a pro-republican look at the then ongoing "Troubles" in Northern Ireland, which caused some controversy at the time. The band's second album, Sense and Sensuality, showed an even greater influence of jazz, soul, funk and disco on the band's sound, but was less well received.[citation needed] The band broke up in 1983 just before they were about to go into the studio to record an album with producer Steve Lillywhite. Woods formed an all woman band called the Darlings in the late '80s, but then left the music industry. She now works as a lawyer in London. Guitarist Paul Foad remains an active musician, playing with Andy Hamilton and the Blue Notes, a Jamaican jazz band, and teaching guitar in and around Birmingham. He has also published a guitar technique book, co-written with Stuart Ritchie, titled The Caged Guitarist (2000). Bass player Jane Munro works as an alternative therapist (aromatherapy, reflexology and Indian head massage) in Birmingham. Pete Hammond also remains an active musician and teaches percussion in Birmingham. The band performed in 1980 for the concert film, Urgh! A Music War. "

2010-07-19T14:01:00.001+02:00

Originally a quartet (David Penhale left the group in 1978), they now perform as a trio which includes Micheal Dean, Steven Smith and Richard Truhlar. Their work has been characterized as an interplay between conceptuality, abstract sound, word-play, mime and theatricality. Their previous recordings include: an extended play record Meaford Tank Range published by Wild Press, a cassette Beyond The Range published by Underwhich Editions; and the anthologized 1'54"… published in the Sound Poetry issue of the Capilano Review, #31.

Dan Lander - Talking To A Loudspeaker (tape, 1989)

2010-07-05T11:28:00.000+02:00

A piece of sound poetry and electronics. Dan Lander studied art at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design in Halifax (Nova Scotia) with a focus on performance, video and sound. After leaving school he set up a modest recording studio in his apartment and developed a method of composition which sprang from his interest in phonography and the referential in recorded sound. This interest also led to his involvement as an editor of two anthologies: Sound by Artists (1990) and Radio Rethink: Art, Sound and Transmission (194). He was the producer of the radio art program The Problem with Language (CKLN, Toronto) from 1987 to 1991. His works for radio and loudspeaker are dependent on sound recordings gathered from real life situations, organized with an ear to the ways in which meaning circulates through the invisible conduit of sounding and hearing. His works have been widely aired in North America and Europe.

Hero Wouters - Laios/Een Zaak Van Leven Of Dood (tape, 1986)

2010-06-28T14:35:00.001+02:00

The soundtrack to a 1983 movie by George Schouten which I never saw, but the comment on IMDB made me curious: "OK and strangely laid back Dutch thriller about a woman with fear of open spaces, who finds refuge in a masochistic relationship with an ex-colleague of her husband. The atmosphere is simultaneously intimate and chilly. The acting is pretty good, considering the level of Dutch cinema in the 80's. Faber, De Lint, Cox, and, to a lesser degree Hardy, do a good job here. The movie is rather dated and that's part of its charm. In fact, when I saw it I thought it was produced somewhere to the end of the seventies, considering the old-fashioned but stylish suits and haircuts. The entourage and bourgeois talk make it fun to watch. Time has certainly changed ("It's going very well with the company, we just bought a new computer")"

The music is great moody electronic music. Hero Wouters still makes music!

Discogs says: Formed as a three piece in spring of 1983. They initially played spontaneous music, but later made power electronics and noise music. The only member who could play a little was Tim Gane, who went on to rock stardom.
The group were interested in musical alchemy, as they put it, and ran the Black Dwarf label." Gane later was the foundin member of Stereolab, just in case you wonder.

2010-06-23T09:08:00.004+02:00

I bumped into someone the other day who handed me this tape, saying that this might be of interest. Obviously it is, since I posted quite some tapes by Dutch label Limbabwe. This one, perhaps the last one by Zanzibars Twist, is very short, just under ten minutes, with three tracks. But with lots of improv/post/punk power.
