I’m covered in Beeeees

Cristine – I Freak Yay! One finger! Best type of keyboard playing. You could probably get a whole genre out of it. Numan got a few songs out of it. Ok so you got lots of people with keyboards, all playing with one finger, but its still just one finger! Feel the power of the…

Acid-botox-freak-out, dude

Featuring:

Ok, let’s check my knowledge about Hawkwind… Lemmy Kilminster played with them. Angels of Death makes me feel good and B.A.D. (Bad Ass Dude) at the same time.

Isi F

Featuring:

Prog breakcore is the way forward That’s what I thought after seeing Jason Forrest do his thing at Wrong Music the other night, it was quite fantabulous to enjoy his not-quite-gig-not-quite-dj session completely sober, geeking out with Scott while the rest of the crowd shook in a tribal druggy celebration. Beats dropping on top of…

Friend of Dorothy

Featuring:

Motiivi:Tuntematon – 1939 1939. Slow beating of monkey’s wings. Attack ships pulsing energy signals. Bombs dropping. What kind of sick reality is this? Take me home! Hear that bellowing in the background? That’s Prince Vultan. Motiivi:Tuntematon takes the same principles of Throbbing Gristle fighting a War Of The Worlds, and applied them to some Wolf…

WORLD BZRWWING FEDERATION

Featuring:

THOSE STRANGE CREATURES!!!! Maybe civilised society is better off without them. They spat and farted and crawled around the floor and hurt themselves and bled and broke windows and scared the shit outta grannies (not of cool grannies, of course) and wore space-age shirts and moustaches and fringes that hid devilish eyes criss crossed with…

IT’S ALIVE! (Easiest post ever)

Schrodinger’s Egg

Featuring:

Autokat – The Driver Undying unrequited love is such a perfect conception of tragedy. I don’t think I could deal with it in real life. I would quite happily watch a middle class French film “To learn to live to love with no return” and cry at the pathos of such a strikingly heart wrenching…

Ministry of Loud

Featuring:

Oh, another noisy post…what a bore!! Let me ask you a question… Could Load Records be (with DFA) the best dance record label right now? I say…Hell yes! I say Load but I guess I could also refer you to Troubleman or In the Red. Why? Let us remember that Dance is a verb and…
