Re: Now Playing

A bit of recent listening. Rory Salter On the Floor, By the Door (2024, Index Clean) Extremely accomplished album even by the standards of someone who, if you know about him, you always expect extremely accomplished work from. My sense with what Rory does is always that it comes a place where the fu...

Re: Now Playing

The bulk of my listening takes place at work on headphones via a laptop and I’ve definitely worked through a lot of TVE this was. I find that it enables me to listen passively whilst fucking around on a spreadsheet or whatever else but also lets me hear in good quality. Plenty of moments when I down...

Re: Now Playing

I think TVE is a brilliant and utterly under rated project. It’s as though his work is out there in silence like a land mine waiting to be trodden on by folk who dig on all the more typically cited tape mangling artists but the likelihood of those people walking the ground where it lays hidden is sl...

Re: Now Playing

The link is perhaps tenuous but some of this conversation got me thinking about Bob Parks. Specifically his highly manic, nude performances with paint and movement which certainly feel very ecstatic and ritual in nature. The most I’ve ever engaged with his work was watching a brilliant documentary a...

Re: Now Playing

Re: Frank Moore Dude is one of the truest artists I've ever come across. On some Maclisian shit. The mouth sounds on that tape are (most likely) due to him having severe Cerebral Palsy (the non-verbal kind). He would use a pointer on his head to form sentences and built an entire underground artist...

Re: Star - Elephant in the Snow (2CD) - Hospital Productions

Could you go more into detail about what exactly Star is about? I understand the tape loop aspect but I can’t help but think I’m missing way more context to what he’s doing and what he’s trying to accomplish. For reference I enjoy the album, albeit I’m incredibly confused by it, which might be the ...

Re: Music and Noise

Yeah, this happens. And I want to agree with it a lot and cite it as a symptom of the low bar for success Noise both suffers and benefits from. YET the more I chew on it, the less I have to say. Is it possible that here and there these bad melodic sensibilities exist just because they're gonna exist...

Re: Hospital/NWN Fest in Osaka / Machine Parts in Tokyo

Hoping to ask a couple of questions about Ochiai Soup since we're talking about it (kind of). I'm gonna be there with a disabled person who deals with limited mobility. Nothing that will stop us getting there and negotiating some stairs but still a thing that'll mark how we travel and that we need t...

Re: K2

Nobody should try to touch the sounds of K2 but K2. K2 should remind us of why it's important to carve out our own niches. K2 is wonderful. K2 set i was lucky enough to witness/record in Shibuya 2016 https://youtu.be/nPM_AJhTilY?feature=shared Amazing. I'd absolutely love to see him play live.

Re: Dislikes and turnoffs

There's just so much you can do that saying modular is producing "same sounding cut-up" is really because people like a certain kind of of cut-up noise. I think this is precisely the point. Any kind of modern cut up style 100% proliferates only because people are fiends for that type of s...

Re: The Haters as home listening experience.

Regarding Tractor 2023 . Only getting round to it this afternoon and yes, it's a big reworking of the original. I suppose the clue is in the title! But that didn't stop me from needing some time to adjust to it. Part of me did just want this to be the 'real' album on CD, not least because I listened...

Re: Dislikes and turnoffs

RE: modern cut up - I'd be inclined to agree that it's an area I lack much interest in. I find it to be one the areas of contemporary noise that most occupies a kind of flashy, rockist space where values of skill and technique are tacitly favoured in the presentation above most others. A lot of it c...

Seconded, the Mogao tape is really good. A friend and I were listening to it recently and he compared it to Spring of Life in how it’s put together, if not in its sound. It was a great call.

Very much enjoyed the recent Tahma and Mogao releases on Satatuhatta. Only listened on headphones through bandcamp so far but they've left an impression. Looking forward to getting the Tahma on tape and may or may not go back and hunt down Mogao's on physical pending another listen. Tahma's stuff ap...
