The jams went on both sides of some Blackstreet cassette (which, truth be told, I was a bit sad to part with) and were cruddily recorded into a purple karaoke tape machine. I ripped it after recording incase anything good was on it and decided yesterday upon listening back that I'd upload it here for anyone who wants it. I quite like it, it's way lo-fi dumb collage shit that does all and everything. On here is creepy creaking, mock raga love, stupid tape looping and some other shit that is probably best described as a 100% Skaters cat-fest.<br /><br />Whatever though, have it, hear it, do what you want with it. A lot of what's going on with these jams will probably be done live or on a recording again anyway, and I might take some of the best 'cuts' from this and use 'em elsewhere.<br /><br />For now though,<br /><br /><a href="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C2GCXJH7">GET THERE</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?nymnmgz3mym">GET THERE (via Mediafire)</a>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-45446995775158363102010-03-05T09:16:00.001-08:002010-03-05T09:37:16.016-08:00Illegible Thai mania<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitg7FOwxMcXunL5uVq9Lrvi3CSpj2RikG-UUbEjixZ8lnt4tjAcx6t0MhJl4x2QetrqTPVy2Xb33R_KxF1C8UhMNSLdTYtDlgSEGKauYCYmrne1OOMqdet_GuLSIvVbF2bxtHppRFhWn2U/s1600-h/thai.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 317px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitg7FOwxMcXunL5uVq9Lrvi3CSpj2RikG-UUbEjixZ8lnt4tjAcx6t0MhJl4x2QetrqTPVy2Xb33R_KxF1C8UhMNSLdTYtDlgSEGKauYCYmrne1OOMqdet_GuLSIvVbF2bxtHppRFhWn2U/s320/thai.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445199961509108402" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Wow, well this is an interesting one. On a charity shop voyage one often finds bizarre and intriguing cassettes penned in exotic, foreign alphabets that they can't read or understand for shit. Many times over these have turned out to be boring Eastern European pop ballad offerings which are good for a 30 second laugh then get taped over. I expected as much with this but got it anyway after being convinced by my friend that it was worth it. Plus it has a nice yellow box which is a plus.<br /><br />Anyhow, when I popped this bad boy in I was instantly blown apart by the distilled cool which began to emit from my purple tape player. Imagine my delight when I found that in place of Eastern European cack lay a long tape of blissful and trippy Thai islander pop. All of these songs come over as a gorgeous and odd Thai take on fruity Calypso and skanky Reggae like jams, all the while retaining a very Asian quality. There is comical wailing from the male/female team, floaty clarinet and other horn work, metallic clang and rattle driving the rhythm and all manner of other tangible vibe creation. It's actually quite hard to do justice to with a description but this one is a beach banger that all the lofi ethnic weirdness lovers will die over.<br /><br />Of equal interest to the music is it's mysterious, info free origin. What the fuck is this and how did it get here? The best I have been able to gather is that the label which put this out (Rota Records-Tapes LTD) is/was a Thai/Chinese manufacturer of all kinds of Asian music with releases that number in the hundreds. There is no English at all on the J-card and there is a handstamped 'Rota Records-Tapes LTD' emblem which, excruciatingly, becomes unreadable by the time it reaches what appears to be a date of release. GUTTED. Anyhow, I'm sure if I could read the cover it'd all become clear, so anyone who can help with that please get in touch. Also, anyone who can shed light on Rota or related stuff should also let me know.<br /><br />P.S. Apologies for the shit photo and lack of titles/artist/album info. I hope the ID3 tage of 'Awesome thai thing' will suffice.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?3uiniin2xz3">GET THERE</a>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-26490281939960863332010-01-10T14:48:00.000-08:002010-01-10T15:07:38.834-08:00The Rita, Toby Dammit, Fecalove - Collaboration<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsKc8QjYaqPiGkVuV98ZlphwaGlRq3ctaFZDxDQ4oTXmo6_r9Dizmx8ILlOzVh6D0rFyeOrN54IVP0VDk9YV12xGJuYTHtzhJBZRDZCOGvIvopRA3lVm10ZIsKtAnUoW1Ja4DbDPkMhv4H/s1600-h/Ri.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 154px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsKc8QjYaqPiGkVuV98ZlphwaGlRq3ctaFZDxDQ4oTXmo6_r9Dizmx8ILlOzVh6D0rFyeOrN54IVP0VDk9YV12xGJuYTHtzhJBZRDZCOGvIvopRA3lVm10ZIsKtAnUoW1Ja4DbDPkMhv4H/s320/Ri.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425247751016601298" border="0" /></a><br />This collaboration between shark loving, Canadian noise hero The Rita and Italian pervs Toby Dammit & Fecalove came out as a one sided cassette a few years ago on Turgid Animal.<br />Limited to only 30 copies it sold out pretty quickly and I was definitely lucky to get one at the time, so what better way to give back to my community that to make a crusty rip of it and upload it to a sparsely visited blog?<br /><br />The sound here is a nasty as you might imagine, having any prior experience to these artists. Rumbling and destructive low end meets sick, sexy eye-tie screech and vocalisations.<br />Being the morbid concept inclined cats they are, this kicks off with a track using samples from interviews regarding the case of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommaso_Onofri">Tommaso Onofri</a>. Not nice at all, but you know how this shit works.<br /><br />I divided this into the 3 tracks it claims to be made of in the inlay but might have gotten it wrong what with the pretty seamless flow of the tape. If you've got a problem with that let me know and I can try to advise you on how to be less of a fassy.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?2jyyxjydzzo">GET THERE</a>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-4466697618257520152010-01-10T14:03:00.000-08:002010-01-23T04:10:52.851-08:00Fuckin' Amateurs - Fuckin' 50? x6 CDR box set<div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWS5fNdY9cKLK7effUrZqycUnGrJZECldgSS0GahIL_zDKaSHJCgYiUmBzvvrWjDw0rGi92TXolY7J4AsyOLbICLj-VHxKARh8EuX1H4Jilc1a2DnoIbpRKMELb13_EMYyNkOlg4EkWhVA/s1600-h/FUCK.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 261px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWS5fNdY9cKLK7effUrZqycUnGrJZECldgSS0GahIL_zDKaSHJCgYiUmBzvvrWjDw0rGi92TXolY7J4AsyOLbICLj-VHxKARh8EuX1H4Jilc1a2DnoIbpRKMELb13_EMYyNkOlg4EkWhVA/s320/FUCK.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425236359603280530" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Well well, sorry it's been such a long time since my last proper upload. To make it up, I decided to present to you this incredible box set.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.colouroutofspace.org/">Colour Out of Space</a> 2009 was a magnificent highlight of the year, showcasing tonnes of incredible acts in a relaxed and amiable atmosphere for 3 days of drunk and sedated bliss. As well as a shitload of memorable sets and interchanges, something that made me leave the festival feeling pretty fucking good about noise and life was the fact that this beauty of a CDR box set was given to me for free by one of the nice guys manning the merchandise. Apparently he hails from in and around Newcastle where this set of Fuckin' Amateurs operate. Other than just recognising the name of the label and knowing of one or two bands that aren't Romance, my only real experience of noise from North East way is a chance meeting I had with a couple of lads at a Slogun show in London a few years ago. They danced, wrestled, knocked gear over and got accordingly choked out by a <a href="http://www.noisemp3.com/artists/sickness">pretty tough American</a>, but kindly found time to organise giving me a CDR with a razorblade dangling off it. The guy who made the music on the disc was called Wrest. He's on here beating the shit out of a bass guitar.<br /><br />Over these 6 discs is spread an overwhelming plethora of music, all at once brutal, beautiful, bemusing and bootlegged. Amazing and powerful drone pieces lay sandwiched between crunchy harsh slices of din, oddball cut up found sounds and scuzzed out Brown Ale swigging trash blues. Not only that but you have a couple of discs which focus on live recordings of heads like Mechanical Children, Birds of Delay and Jazzfinger associates as well as terrifying and confusing dictaphone sleaze. But this really is the tip of the iceberg when considering what's packed into the whole set. A set which I can only describe as a true D.I.Y. labour of under appreciated experimental love. Fuck off.<br /><br />I've had to break this down into 5 parts and the files might be pretty big, but that's what you get for high quality MP3 rips AND id3 tag track information I inputted myself from the inlays that I can't scan. It's very worth it in any event.<br /><br />Other than that they put out free/cheap noise and enjoy drinking and bootlegging, I dunno much about Fuckin' Amateurs. Finding the act of Googling the bastards difficult to perform without invoking page after page of lewd and unrelated results, I'm happy enough to keep it that way. Still, they have a <a href="http://www.discogs.com/label/Fuckin%27+Amateurs">discogs page</a> and anyone can feel free to contact me and fill me in on their grim legend.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?0qwmuyjdnji">1</a><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?mznttrm1ztm">2</a><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?ctqnge214yz">3</a><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?mnjtvduizie">4</a><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?mjyi2nmjyzj">5</a><br /><br />UPDATE: Turns out somehow I was able to make the RAR while missing out disc 1 entirely...weird.

Please forgive my lack of updates, I'm tremendously flaky. But I'll have some big treats for y'all in the new year in an attempt to give back to the blogging community.<br /><br />Today we have a special treat in a guest edition of shuffle shuffle compiled by Mr. Final Church whose earsplitting noise bubbles can be heard at<br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/thefinalchurch">http://www.myspace.com/thefinalchurch</a><br /><br />Final Church also runs the Fragment label who I just discovered recently. It turns out they put out nice lookin' noisey CDRs and are gearing up for a pretty fucking sweet load of new releases next year. Brit noise is being repped up in that batch so get there and check it out for yourself.<br /><a href="http://fragmentfactory.blogspot.com/">http://fragmentfactory.blogspot.com/</a><br /><br />And now to the Shuffle. I haven't heard it myself yet so lord only knows what this is gonna be like!

With Harbinger being one if not THE best UK noise labels, I was instantly interested, so imagine the glee when I learned that this box set was in fact a series of 4 cassettes, one side each taken up by the likes of Nackt Insecten, Usurper, Romance, Dieter Muh, Cheapmachines, Jazzfinger, Astral Social Club and Britannia Anonymous Society. Though, of course, I had only gotten to know the work of a few of these artists at the time, I jumped all over buying this now deleted item (which also came with a Harbinger Sound pin, excellent!)<br />And as for the sounds? fughettabaughtit....this right here is a cracking mix of superb UK noise playas. I guess it's just the very slight part of me that cares about being an English cat, but I'm always interested in noise and weirdness from this part of the world. I always find a slightly more excentric and odd edge to it which I love. Anyway, as you might assume from the range for artists, there is a vast mixture of styles going on, from noisy, colourful drones, acoustic scraping and minimal buzzing, all the way over to true harsh noise dynamism (Romance, I'm looking at you).<br /><br />A thorough recommendation for anyone who wants to hear a lovely bit of recent UK noise history. Obligatory preferential shouts go out to the Romance, Usurper, Cheapmachines and Nackt Insecten offerings, though of course all the stuff here is top notch.<br /><br />I've learned how to do RARs now so here it is in two parts for yo' listening pleasures.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?nmnmvfntlmo">Part 1</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ygmnwxodtmz">Part 2</a><br /></div></div>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-90672382340409115702009-07-04T13:43:00.000-07:002009-07-07T12:20:45.947-07:00Shuffle Shuffle Vol.1<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/NR/rdonlyres/DD2BA57B-83FE-4C37-BCF9-21C390250D2F/0/daff_gda_evnt_line_dancing02.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 250px; height: 350px;" src="http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/NR/rdonlyres/DD2BA57B-83FE-4C37-BCF9-21C390250D2F/0/daff_gda_evnt_line_dancing02.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br />Welcome to the beginning of a new and hopefully very regular feature to the blog. Welcome to SHUFFLE SHUFFLE<br /><br />This series will consist of compilation albums made as a result of listening to about 1 hr of music with my iTunes set on shuffle. The uploads will be untouched and played in the exact order as they randomly appeared with no songs omitted*, hopefully making for a fun and bizarre range of tracks. Also, the track list will be included only as a text file within the uploaded zip, leaving the listener with no idea as to what delights they may be downloading until they have it. Will it be a mind melting eclectobomb set to water the mouths of even the broadest pallets? or will be be a total shitpile of embarrassing and uncohesive crap best consigned to the trash can? You're a few clicks away from finding out.<br /><br />I encourage all those who download to act similarly and set up their own shuffle shuffles (post the upload link in the comments) and share in this potentially dangerous musical exploration. Just be sure to STICK TO THE DAMN RULES cos you wouldn't want to carry the burden of white hot guilt at having cheated around for the rest of your life would you?<br /><br />I'll be asking special guests to contribute to this series too, so stay tuned and keep your eyes peeled for more, SHUFFLE SHUFFLE.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mmld2mdhynz">Download Shuffle Shuffle Vol.1</a><br /><br /><br />* The idea for this series is to reveal an unaltered glimpse into the depths of your randomised mp3 collection, so please stick to this plan and don't remove the embarrassing Linkin Park track you downloaded back when you first got a computer. The only instance in which tracks can be removed is in the event that you make music and one of your shitty, unfinished demos or 40 second drum loops you were experimenting with gets included. No one wants to hear that shit, especially not from my collection...so if you don't want these in, feel free to remove them.

First up is "Diagnosing and Managing Heart Failure" with Dr Graham Jackson of Guys Hospital, a lucky find at a charity shop in Southsea. Throughout this short cassette, Dr. G tells us all about how to recognise and treat signs of heart failure through a series of staged dialogues with "Mrs Taylor", an elderly woman with complaints of breathlessness. Obviously, these exchanges are pretty funny, you really have to hear it to believe it. Some of the comments Dr. G makes in the diagnostic spaces between the dialogues are pretty funny too, with his stern, nasal delivery absolutely shattering his attempts at jokes and light heartedness (accidental pun, HO!) into a billion shards. Also, at one stage, he reprimands Mrs Taylor about her use of salt in food and launches into a brief, yet vitriolic tirade which I'm sure hints at a personal dislike of salt extending far beyond his professional obligation to advise against it's heavy use. There are also some heart pattern sounds made by a Cardionics Heart Sound Simulator which might be of some use to sampling cats.<br /><br />Worth noting also is that this tape was made to plug the heart medicines of Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceuticals Limited.

Discogs show me some very worthy artists on their "roster" so give it up for Hate State. ALRIGHJT!<br />None Shadow is a 6 cassette C30 collection that celebrates WALL NOISE. Now maybe it's just me, but it seems that during the time that this came out only a couple of years ago and now, that wall noise has become something of a thing unto itself, and you see a lot of artists giving it large about militant HNW (harsh noise walls) and all sorts of other things in which multiple or few concepts are represented through long, unmoving walls of sound. I like a bit of that for sure, but mostly I think the idea can run away with itself a bit an ultimately leaves me a tad cold. So to my ears there is a difference between the sounds of this WALL NOISE celebration and what you might expect to hear from a HNW celebration. That is to say that the great stuff on this collection is not about unmoving and minimal washes of sound, but of giant cacophonies of grim, sludgy rackets that make you feel like shit when you listen, half cut, falling asleep, clutching a tin of warm stella on a hot day.<br />It's a pretty varied collection when you consider these terms, featuring The Cherry Point, Filthy Turd, Taskmaster, Kakerlak, The Rita and Privvy Seals, each getting a cassette to themselves which came housed in an awesome woolen patch thing with a pocket sewn in for each tape. NICE.<br />It could just be my rips, but the quality is pretty lofi here which makes for a more pleasent experience for my ears, however you might need to crank this one up a bit for maximum harsh intake. A good all round comp but shouts go to the Kakerlak, Cherry Point and P.Seals stuff for personal enjoyment.<br />What I've done is load every offering separately cos I don't know how to make RARs and it would be too big as a while rip. Also I don't think there is REALLY meant to be any sort of running order to this, despite what the discogs page says.<br />Enjoy!

Came out in 2007, only about 60 copies on the always cracking Unrest Productions label, run by Shift.<br />Now, as much as a fan of Shift as I am (Unable to Abide a World of Silence is SERIOUS fucking BUSINESS, get it) I definitely got this tape mainly because of Romance, who doesn't release a lot but always serves up great slabs of harsh cut up greatness and is a serious treasure of UK noise. Predictably, his side is amazing, beginning with an epic string loop sample and building into his trademark stop and start harsh as heck cacophony. One thing that I've always liked about Romance is that his sounds seem to have a kind of recognisable production value (stupid term for noise but maybe you know what I mean?) as though each sound is really meticulously put together and processed and then layered perfectly. Real mad scientist stuff and thoroughly pleasing.<br />Shift's side is an interesting one. By his own admission when it came out, this is a far more harsh noise approach than his usual dark power electronic stuff. Two tracks here and this was made using a radio and a string of pedals and as a result is a lot more simple and even humourous that you'd expect. I always come to this tape thinking the next time I'll hear the Shift side I'll hate it, expecting the sort of boring, predictable bullshit you'd imagine someone might come up with by distorting a radio, but I'm always blown away by how well it comes off. For such obviously improvised pieces, this sounds really composed with disgusting and decaying speech just BUBBLING away under the horrid wash of white, crunchy noise in a way that reminds me of many early industrial experiments and is still very in touch with what Shift usually does. There is still time for some radio funnies though as we get to hear that cunt Robbie Williams have his voice ruined for the sake of a small run cassette release. In short, the Shift tracks are just as good in it's own way as the Romance stuff and the two sides work very well together.<br /><br />If you download this, it might say it's a c20 in the title.

I'm not entirely sure when I got my hands on it, but it came about as a result of some sort of mistake between myself and the label regarding another purchase. Easily one of the best mistakes ever, cos this is a personal favourite of my tape collection and had quite an influence on some of my sounds too.<br />The tape comes with a track per side. Side A contains "Abandoned By Christ", my favourite track. It's a really, REALLY fucking dark work based around a very lofi and revolving tonal loop which could be some sort of organ or synth before giving way completely to a mental break down of screams and sheets of foggy psych noise. A damn near perfect marriage of lofi industrial tape noise and black metal, drawing from both influences in a very tasteful and uncliched way. Side B and "Throne of Dead Moths" is a fairly logical continuation of the end of side A, though in a much more subdued manor. You might need to crank the volume up for this one as it's quite quiet and I'm not sure I ripped it as well as I could have. I might have another go when I'm around this tape again and see if I can get it better.<br /><br />I've not had much more exposure to Josh Lay's work, but everything I have heard has shown a great progression on this sound while always remaining challenging and dark.

Once I caught that bug, I went on looking for more info on him and to check out similar stuff. Searching lead me to his work for Alien8 Recordings and consequently this total gem. The album consists of an individual track from each artist as well as some live collaborations. The way that the tracks have been put together is nothing short of masterful. M.S.B.R. was a true master of dynamic and creative noise, while Kengo Iuchi seems to have found a way to transfer his every instinctive thought and feeling directly onto a recording. Crushing and nihilistic noise segues flawlessly into completely gut wrenching and heart breaking moments of pure, honest performance and it still surprises me how the record manages to cover such a broad spectrum of emotion while never once comprimising it's approach. Perhaps the highlights of the record lie in the live collaborations, haunting and ritualistic vocal/guitar from Kengo Iuchi which M.S.B.R pins down with very tasteful and minimal electronics. <br />Totally essential and a constant influence for me. A joy to recommend!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TC35ZX1C">DOWNLOAD</a><br /></div></div>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-78714317084078662572009-03-21T11:34:00.000-07:002009-03-21T12:49:41.955-07:00Greenmist - Killed By Waste<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ09HGkllXZQlK_kUIzc1NAGtmQ1vlGQoRhDTIhjXQokgyMivolNTHpPY7kY0SZJAvFtGakr_cwVpGcsVC7YtMbKZFUqYvbvO2R9SR-KyC9-359ffWK2a1c_-PUCHaLbncyRjbFqpwSKax/s1600-h/l_684701eb6d9f3b037958a3f6a1eaaa0d.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ09HGkllXZQlK_kUIzc1NAGtmQ1vlGQoRhDTIhjXQokgyMivolNTHpPY7kY0SZJAvFtGakr_cwVpGcsVC7YtMbKZFUqYvbvO2R9SR-KyC9-359ffWK2a1c_-PUCHaLbncyRjbFqpwSKax/s320/l_684701eb6d9f3b037958a3f6a1eaaa0d.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315711393038124770" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">With a good selection of CDR and tape releases on some pretty damn good labels, many of you may already know of Greenmist, otherwise known as the traveling Canadian, Dallas K. Right here is some gritty harsh noise, nasty and progressive but always cloaked in a pleasing lofi recording quality. You (I) can feel comfortable screaming at the moon and producing grim claw shapes with your hands while listening to this tape, but also perfectly happy just laying back and taking it in, getting passively stoned from the weed smoke which no doubt vastly aided it's creation. Equal parts tone and groan, and a massively absorbing listen.

Kicks off with this sort of plucky, scrapey violin type thing and builds into a nice ambient set of movements before dropping off the face of the earth with no warning. Luckily side B is a continuation of where it left off and things start to get INTENSE. I think this is what living in a nomadic dessert community would sound like if it wasn't, in reality, a tough and thoroughly un western existence.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.megaupload.com/?d=6DV1YFRK">DOWNLOAD</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.myspace.com/tuluumshimmering">www.myspace.com/tuluumshimmering</a>Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8733710778364288749.post-33822051374245194352009-03-21T10:04:00.001-07:002009-03-21T11:34:39.181-07:00Kanin Krusete - Rebut de l'humanité<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDMPo8ilxlUvOrrnXLvKOw9JIBx0p_98Z9wBjM0ppAanmIZOVjYPOI0FFP7o7PiRSVoyG7542qDHKnv-dAUI1yWVdAkTDU9tv_c42MhF1VJxdatQZWDoI1o3qn6wqxFnmqLm10dwHm6Scw/s1600-h/R-1451680-1220750779.jpeg.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 198px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDMPo8ilxlUvOrrnXLvKOw9JIBx0p_98Z9wBjM0ppAanmIZOVjYPOI0FFP7o7PiRSVoyG7542qDHKnv-dAUI1yWVdAkTDU9tv_c42MhF1VJxdatQZWDoI1o3qn6wqxFnmqLm10dwHm6Scw/s320/R-1451680-1220750779.jpeg.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315688214168984994" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />I got this gnarly little thing in a trade with Shea, the fellow behind Kanin Krusete.

Everything from the total shit sex noise of Superior Fellatio, through to a bunch of far more matured and dynamic stuff which never got a release. All here in it's questionable glory, for whatever it's worth. The only omissions are tracks from splits with 197 and Betty, as well as some live actions which got released on BTRecordings and Turgid Animal. All of these are available from said labels (197 split can be found at Mac10 recordings) so if you're that way inclined you can buy them.<br />It's a strange feeling, seeing this little body of work all here in one place, never to be further built upon. I had fun doing the relatively small set of things I did with Gland, and where I'm glad to have moved on artistically (god that sounds pretentious) I'll always miss the simple joys of my first, crude, obnoxious and excitable noise experiments.

But I'll primarily use it for uploading music. It's more likely I'll forget about it though.Are these your lunches?http://www.blogger.com/profile/05500371456475184241noreply@blogger.com0
