words from a kindly Irish man... ...on the show recently in Kensal Green:

"Last night, in a small, candle-lit room near Kensal Green, David Thomas Broughton put on one of the best shows I’ve ever experienced. It’s not often that I get to walk away feeling completely exhilarated but when it does happen, this is the reason I’ll make a two-hour round trip to an empty bar in a place I’ve never been before, night after night.

For someone who appears to be going through his set in a completely random manner, he was in total control, commanding a reverential attentiveness for a performance that doesn’t pause for applause. Punching the wall, rearranging the candles and bottles on everyone’s table, kicking over his own pint, using a tape-recorder to squeal and grind out a quasi-rhythm, banging his equipment in time, and of course, coming into the audience to sing…all in one brilliantly orchestrated movement of expression. These things may not sound particularly impressive in isolation, but it was the sensation it produced as you watched it all unfold together: to be wowed and transfixed in the most life-affirming way possible"

Detboi to prawdziwy maniak uzależniony od potężnych basów wprawiających ciało w taneczny trans. Chociaż pochodzi z chłodnej Irlandii, to nagrywa muzykę pełną wpływów jungle, ragga czy hip hopu lat 90.

Jego wydane pod szyldem Cheap Thrills (patrz Herve, Jack Beats, Fake Blood) ep'ki i udział w najważniejszym klubowym projekcie 2008 roku „Machines don't care” (patrz Herve, Fake Blood, Toddla T), to najlepsze dowody na to, że szykuje się kolejna epicka impreza spod znaku HHM Nite.

Do Warszawy Detboi przyjedzie świeżo po gorącej balandze na Ibizie.

Hello to everybody ! Great news !!

Audiomachie / Logomachie

(Berger rond, #VVSBR05)
(2009) SOCAN

1) Audiomachie (6:21)
2) Une ombre vacille en serpentin virevoltant (6:58)
3) Bruissement de griserie (9:55)
4) Propensity to go forward (7:36)
5) Drawing of a Back with a Mouth (4:24)
6) Second Life (3:50)

(39:12)

- The project was about trying to explore different poetry styles, always with different instrumentations and musical structures because I don't want to repeat a single one
- An album not directly linked to the four previous ones, but with the impossible to avoid come back to fetish themes
- Second Life is about the technological phenomena, but I got better things to do with my life than spending it on the clone of a capitalist society
- We might as well hope for a real bankrupcy for all of us, it would be worth it to kill capitalism

Most of you will just want to listen to the music made available. Well, here it is with great streaming (right after MA VIE est ICI which is a reminder of my previous album conclusion)

Svarte Greiner (Deaf Center/Miasmah/Type) explores deep into a dark, mysterious and disturbing universe. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Earth, Volcano the Bear, David Darling & Deathprod, the music is draped in Lynchian mysticism and horror film cinematics. "The music of Svarte Greiner is practically perfect. It's like that sound in our heads we've been imagining for ages but had never actually heard." - Type Records.

The Sight Below (Rafael Anton Irisarri/Miasmah/Immune) draws as much on modern genre progenitors like Brian Eno, Robin Guthrie and My Bloody Valentine as it does from the more historic traditions in neo-classicism from Erik Satie and Olivier Messiaen. His album Glider has appeared on Thom Yorke's radar in making the Radiohead's lynchpin's top ten playlist.

His debut album Navigare soon to feature on the Miasmah label, Simon Scott (former Slowdive) is set to be a household name in conceptual music. Simon is the former Slowdive drummer, co-producer of Televise, producer of Seavault, and owner of KESH Recordings label.

Together they share a love of folk, blues and world music and play an exotic array of instruments including Kora, Banjo, Ukulele, and Harmonium. They are touring the UK with Japanese solo artist Ichi, who takes the notion of a one-man band to new limits – combining steel drum with ping-pong balls, tape-loops, trumpet and xylophone.

Support comes from Norwich-based musicians Sam James Hill and Tenderlion plus Buffet Style DJ's playing music from the psyche's deli..."

Hello there!!!

Hows it going these days?

I hope all is well and good and I just wanted to let you know I've just put up a new track called ECHO so I thought you might want to have a listen. :o)
It's just the instrumental version I did not long ago but I do have a full section of vocal to arrange into this track so I'll keep you posted on the outcome! :o)

I appreciate your time and support and any comments posted.

All the very best, take care.
