Chemin!
Concrete sounds installations in movement.

"With my installations, that I create with found objects of various different materials, I try to work on a (sonic) articulation of different forms of space and movement...

The sounds of side A were recorded directly on a Sony professional, the sounds of side B were recorded on a Fostex 160 and mastered on a Sony professional without effects."

List of the used objects:
brick; bamboo; metal, wood, and glass bars
plastic shade; bamboo; loaf sugar
metallic stand from iron board; palm branch
cake tin; bread shovel
metallic rings; metallic heating shade
wood sewing machine cover; sugarloaf; wood spool

Feedback, Feed Me, Feedelity

"Microphone, amplifier, and loudspeaker used as 'closed circuit' means, to use them against the, to them awarded, aesthetic function... Feedbacks can be generated through the electromechanical stimulation of the own resonance of the integrated membranes in microphone and loudspeaker...

...On the this tape presented recordings, I've specially integrated analogue effects, 2 voltage controlled filters, and one delay. The feedbacks between the various microphones and loudspeakers are additional manipulated by the use of tubes, buckets, clay forms, metal cases. The whole was recorded on a Fostex 160 and is mastered on a Sony professional without additional effects."

Small Cruel Party / Kiyoshi Mizutani - Split
Flenix (FLR04) 2000

"Small Cruel Party's work is focused on the inherent mysterious and beautiful quality of sound itself, with the emphasis on noninstrumental sound sources, the source itself not being readily apparent. Work generally involves manipulation of physical objects in acoustic space and a great deal of concentrated activity. Even in pieces involving dense sound at high volume the resultant effect is one of intense calm."

Kiyoshi Mizutani - folk instruments (types of rattles) and sampled materials:
1. Instruments made of animal's claws and human voices.
2. Instruments made of nuts and the wave.
3. Belt of nuts and electric saw.
4. Maracas made of ceramic and boards.

Pacific 231 - Sachlichkeit

Originally part of the early 80's industrial/power electronics scene, French artist Pacific 231 (Pierre Jolivet) soon moved on to a more atmospheric and experimental territory. This tape consists of two pieces. Side A is a bit noisier with trumpet(?), voice, and delay. Side B is more rhythmic with voice, bass, chimes, and choral voices. Very meditative.

Thee Wand - Test Ov Eyes

Thee Wand - Test Ov Eyes
Temple Records/World Domination Club
(none/WDC-2301) (1991)

All music decoumposed by Z'ev, Megs'on (Genesis P'Orridge), & Gini Ball.
This is the first in a series of special releases of music by members of Psychic TV. Limited to 100 copies.

"Thee processed trumpet is from a recording made in 1963 ov a US Marine Trumpeter trying to play reveille whilst high on a dose ov LSD during secret trials ov it's effectiveness as a 'psychomimmetic' weapon.

Instruments used apart from thee trumpet tape to generate initial sounds prior to heavy processing are all ritual instruments. They include Tibetan Bowls, Nepalese Temple Bells, African Goat Skin Drums, and an array of percussion from thee four directions ov B-Earth. No electronic or amplified instruments were used.

In particular, Z'ev played all drums, Gini played all violins.

Thee Self-imposed brief was to create a musick that had thee same psychoactive trance effects as ancient ritual musicks first generated on thee original instruments used, butter regenerated through a purely coumtemporary system ov effects."

The basic tracks were also released as a different mix on Psychic TV's Direction Ov Travel.

Croiners - The Relentless Rhythm of Change

Excellent tape of looped madness and keyboard maladies. A longtime favorite.

"Croiners (a.k.a. James Levine) has taken digital and tape-loop technology beyond its minimalist beginnings, blending complex layers of synthesized and natural sounds with occasional found-sound elements, weaving involved and colorful textures into nearly tangible sound objects."
(The Cassete Mythos)
