David Payne
Nirvana Unplugged
bim-45, winter 2011
There's an album called Futuro, a trio date which features Tetuzi Akiyama on
what sounds like an amplified acoustic or resonator guitar. The music is
extremely taut, with long silences and subtle gestures. A short blow of breath
is released through a trumpet, a drumhead is rubbed, that kind of thing.
Akiyama's playing is the most deliciously tense of the trio, sounding like he's
moving a slide underneath the strings every couple minutes; very controlled,
very focused work. David Payne's (Hamilton, Ontario's main man behind Fossils,
Slut Mouth, and the mighty Middle James Co.) latest solo slab offers a rowdy,
wasted take on this approach, minus the silences and the playing partners. His
acoustic guitar is mangled and scraped, rubbed, fingered, and bent, and is
subjected to a variety of preparations. The results are unlike his work in
Fossils, whose lightly abrasive approach is much more inscrutable. It's possibly
more akin to an unplugged and halved version of Slut Mouth, or if you've ever
heard some of his solo tapes, you might be on the right track. But, as with all
of Payne's work, there's an air of unpretentious seriousness to the proceedings,
no fat, all business. Recorded late 2010 in Hamilton.

REPOST FROM KYE

Million Year Spree LP (KYE 14)

Million Year Spree is the first in an occasional series of shared LPs where two
like-minded souls meet under one umbrella. Hamilton, Ontario's Fossils have long
been the reigning kings of no-fi acoustic sewage, producing an endless stream of
outstandingly dire handcut confusion. Calfornia's Darksmith came to public
attention last year via their peerless Total Vacuum LP (Hanson). Wilting
electronics, floppy turntableism and sun-baked cassette protocol are combined
and destroyed in a claustrophobic void. With additional mixing by Graham Lambkin
and mastering by Jason Lescalleet Million Year Spree is the last word on being
and nothingness. Hand-numbered edition of 400.

Hear excerpts from Million Year Spree:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRn06HPW_-k

Moniek Darge 'Sounds of Sacred Places' CD (KYE 13)

New 2011 edition of this cornerstone sound art collection, originally published
in 1987 on LP by Igloo. "In most ethnic cultures, sacred places serve an
important social function. The qualities, typical of these places, explain to
western people the magic magnetism of these "holy grounds". During our
international Logos Duo concert tours we have had the opportunity to visit quite
a few of these places. Uluru, the "Shadowgiving Mountain" of the Aborigines,
better known under its western name of Ayers Rock (Australia), impressed us more
than any other. The presence of water and an enormous monolith in the midst of
the vast desert plain is given as an explanation for its magical appeal. But to
the Aborigines, each little place of the rock contains tracks of their
ancestors, the "Dreamtime People", who live in this mountain and speak to them
in the sounds of the winds howling through the crevasses and rockholes. Uluru is
also the dwelling-place of the "World Serpent", the most powerful totem shared
by the surrounding tribes. Sounds of Sacred Places attempts to transform the
listener into a living witness of the sounds of similar places, not far away in
any specific ethnic culture, but in Flanders". (Moniek Darge, 1987). Sounds of
Sacred Places arrives in a high gloss 4-panel digipak with accompanying 16 page
booklet of photos and notes. Remastered from the original tapes by Moniek Darge
at the Logos Foundation, Gent. Edition of 500.

MJC412 CRUUDEUCES c60
Nathan Brennan is a ghetto naturalist. Hard to resist if yr hip to it~
His G.N.S. label continues to drop some high-style ear drugs.
This tape brings a nice (off)balance of dizzy live and studio sounds.
side a=captured 2011
July 31 @ feeding tube Northampton MA
Nov 8 @ UAG Albany NY
Grade-A mangled man-handled tape machines laced with
feedback twisters. general fried electronics at yr service & fucked.
side b=constructed by Nath at home in No.Adams, Mass.,
the pieces drag you underwater til yr drowning in delayed clarinet
settling amongst the deepsea sediment�
If crude churning gunk basement noise is yr thing
this tape is ready to drink!
full color covers!
limited to 33

MJC415 WINTERS IN OSAKA `Eternal Black' c90
For almost a decade self-described "creep ambient" blasters from Chicago have
been held together by the glue that is Adam Jennings.
`Eternal Black' collects three self-released tapes, documenting varied line-ups,
collaborations and incarnations in sound of WIO 2009-2010.
This tape has it all from subtle churn to black riot burn.
side A="August 1975" recorded in a warehouse in Manchester UK with
members of metal band Pine Barrens. Frank Faerman (ex PLF) pounds skins on
"Castigo" with additional drone doom conjured by Dorian Rainwater(Noisear) and
Richard Ramirez.
"Brujo" features Dopi (Machetazo) on vocals.
side B features the 2010 lineup of Jennings/Golen/Jason Soliday/Gonzalez.
Perfect soundtrack to yr post-apocalyptic dayz.
b&w artwork by Andy Lippoldt
limited to 43

Three new Fossils tapes currently available from mjc

"The Divine Invasion" on Chocolate Monk
choc.225  Numbered edition of 60 copies
A Canadian take on non cerebral crud. Danker than a Michigan dudes ass crack but
twice as fragrant.
"pleasing archival collection from the seemingly unstoppable one man canadian
noise factory - this one's about as unsophisticated as it gets, with a sound so
crude and urgent it circumnavigates any concept of
mixing/mastering/presentation. it just is. deal with it." - Graham Lambkin

"Bohemian Grove" on Ghetto Naturalist Series
GNS-038   Numbered edition of 60 (sold out at source)
beyond sounds from the north resort. This is what I call a MAJOR joyride. At
about an hr.= a taste of it all, and it's KILLER! you want to laugh= you got it,
you want to cry= you got it, you want to look suave and silly in your chairor
taxed on the floor= you got it! Payne and Farr on this one and super good!!

"INFINITY TAPES VOL. II" on For Noise's Sake
FNS061   Ultra-small edition, each cover original collage work by RN Juristo!
