Metasplice Churn
‘Metasplice is the tandem of that guy from hair_loss and Dave Smolen. Both were great on their own, but as a team, they tend to tag a little harder, dig a little deeper, and down a lot more space-dance donuts. The easy way to explain the appeal of Topographical Interference is to invoke kindred spirits like Demdike Stare and Ensemble Economique. Yet these two lay it on a lot thicker, “it” being a strange aural substance known as digi-spray that cropdusts the arrangements with a layer of spice that more minimalist dark-dance folk lack. If it feels like Metasplice are rambling at times, it’s because they are. That said, they’re one of the few groups mining this sound with any semblance of bravado, laying down tracks a more enterprising chap might even be able to dance to.’ — Tiny Mix Tapes

Shed I Come By Night (50 Weapons)
‘I have to explain that Shedding the Past is not like I wanted to shed something or to do something new or to leave something behind. It’s more to explain where the name Shed came from. That’s all. It’s a bit ridiculous I know, “Shed” the name — I know! [laughs] It was more to explain the name, where it came from. When I started with my label in 2003, this was the first sentence on my web page — “shedding the past” — but in that time, I thought I had to shed something. And actually the album name came in order to explain “Shed” — I’m not a garden shed or whatever! [all laugh] That’s it. There was a big idea behind it, but not on it, not while I made this album.’ — Shed

Moonface Headed for the Door
‘Moonface is singer, songwriter, keyboardist, Spencer Krug, known previously by his former bands Sunset Rubdown, Wolf Parade, Frog Eyes and Swan Lake. The name originated in 2009 with the Sunset Rubdown limited 7-inch “Introducing Moonface.” It was a mere two songs that Krug wrote and recorded alone in his Montreal home, which was never intended to make any big waves, but which resurrected in Krug a love for home-recording, and planted the idea that he would use the name “Moonface” for all future solo work. Moonface is now Krug’s main focus and primary creative outlet. He is currently working on the next album with the above mentioned Michael Bigelow. The album is, as of yet, a pop-percussion experiment, the title and release date of which are both yet to be determined.’ — JAGJAGUAR

Clams Casino All I Need
‘Mike Volpe. more commonly known as Clams Casino or Clammy Clams, is an Italian-American electronic musician and hip hop producer from Nutley, New Jersey. He started gaining recognition after contacting Lil B and sending him a variety of instrumentals. His production often samples spacey female voices—such as Björk, Janelle Monáe, Adele, or Imogen Heap. He is currently studying to be a physical therapist. He received acclaim from The Needle Drop and Pitchfork, the latter of which ranked his first mixtape, Instrumentals, as one of the top-50 records of 2011. He gained futher recognition due to his work on A$AP Rocky’s mixtape and album Live. Love. A$AP.’ — collaged

Burial & Four Tet Wolf Cub
‘British “super producers” Four Tet and Burial are known for collaborating, bringing in super-super types like Thom Yorke on occasion. Now they’ve quietly revealed a new joint effort minus the Yorke. Meet “Wolf Cub,” a track Four Tet tweeted early last night with little fanfare or explanation. So far the best guess for the chilled-out track’s future is Pitchfork’s theory that it’ll be the 13th release on Four Tet’s Text Records label, since Four Tet included the phrase “TEXT013” in his 140 characters.’ — collaged

Prurient I Understand You
‘Another one-man band out of Madison, WI, Dominick Fernow basically makes up Prurient with a theme of anti-technology and anti-electricity — with the exception of his microphones and four-track recorder. Backing Fernow’s stance up is his unconventional use of banging objects together to create music; playing with live wire, pennies, frying pans, toolboxes, scrap metal, and used shotgun shells are an example of some of his instruments. Through his many hours of recording in is home studio, Prurient recorded and released a split EP with PCDS in 1998 and a full-length the next year entitled Blades Steam Red Sweat, Inside the Things I Dread on his own Hospital Records.’ — collaged

Atom TM Wellen Und Felder
‘Uwe Schmidt, aka Atom TM, modern laptop legend and king of the pseudonym has been lost in the Chilean wilderness for the last eight years. We coaxed him out of hiding to come and talk about the science of living and breathing Latin American music, finally getting to a place where you can re-interpret Kraftwerk, the deep science of the cover version, his Japanese approach to collaboration, the rapid process of electronic music definition and the subsequent and irritating result of classification.’ — RBMA

The Haxan Cloak Miste
‘I’ve been making music for more than 10 years now, and all I can really do is strive to achieve the most honest thing possible. This is what The Haxan Cloak represents to me – a desire for honesty – a clean channel between the conception and fruition of ideas. There isn’t really a concept as, personally, I’m uncomfortable with trying to consciously mask the music with a pre-determined idea of what it should be or say. I find this very counter-productive. The music does end up being quite melancholy in tone. Of course, there is the question of why record under ‘The Haxan Cloak’ and not just my own name. I am sort of obsessed with pre-1900s imagery and text . I was heavily into reading about the Salem witch trials for a time. Haxan is an old German word for witch, which I always found sounded and looked intriguing and somehow beautiful.’ — THC

Laurel Halo Thaw
‘When an artist “finds her voice,” it’s meant as a figure of speech and signifies a certain kind of greedy perspective from our end that values neat narrative arcs and easily identifiable resolutions. It’s typically reserved for someone like Laurel Halo, who’s darted and dashed rather than having followed a simple trajectory over the past couple of years, recording a vast and diverse amount of material under her own name and as King Felix for six record labels (and counting). Halo finds her voice in a literal sense. She foregrounds vocals to a far greater extent than on her previous material, and while Quarantine veers from claustrophobic sci-fi dioramas to meditative synth drones to nakedly expressive confessionals, it’s unified by an underlying perspective and personality that commands attention yet still leaves plenty to the imagination.’ — Pitchfork

Locust Strobes
‘Mark Van Hoen, who made a string of influential releases as Locust on R&S; records in the 1990’s, all but retired the alias at the end of that decade. In May 2012, Van Hoen was invited to perform a live set on WFMU radio. In order to make the set more spontanious and add a further dimension, he asked friend and fellow musician Louis Sherman to collaborate. While improvising new material in Sherman’s Brooklyn rehearsal studio, It swiftly became obvious that the material sounded like Locust. Inspired by joint explorations with found sound sources and ambient textures, and sharing a pan-dimensional immersion in the length and breadth of analogue and digital recording, the duo performed a series of tracks live. This material, combined with previously recorded tape tracks dating back to 2006 form the bulk of their new album.’ — Editions Mego

Bee Mask Live @ Enemy, Chicago
‘Bee Mask is the abstract and drone music project of the Cleveland, Ohio, United States native Chris Benedetto Madak. Madak’s approach is difficult to pin down. While he frequently composes long-form explorations in excess of fifteen minutes, he also breaks his pieces into movements short enough to have already released a greatest hits-style compilation, last year’s Elegy for Beach Friday. This tension between slow-burning builds and sudden fissures is magnified on When We Were Eating Unripe Pears, a short album of terse, disparate tracks that nevertheless flows as a whole. The record starts as granular squeaks and chirps flit above a molten synthesizer drone, gradually dissolving into it until they resemble bubbling water. As the drone morphs into a sluggish thudding pulse, Manak deploys an assortment of sounds—chief among them a wafer-thin, super-fast arpeggio and clanging tones—that give the feel of a mechanized gamelan session.’ — collaged

p.s. Hey. ** Scunnard, Hi, Jared. Yeah, the weather here is really schizo. It’s like the days are montages of what feels like spring and then this cold, rainy drear that seems so two months ago. Glad things are good there, man. I saw your email, and I’ll get to it pronto. Thanks! ** Thomas Moronic, I agree with you about ‘To the Wonder’. Nice. Cool you liked the Julien and the Joyce. Yeah, really good stuff, right? Oh, and, wow, thank you a lot for sending me that you-know-what! It’s going to pop up here next Wednesday. Really a big help, man. I really appreciate it. And it’s awesomeness incarnate, of course! ** Misanthrope, Well, hopefully the hand is just freaking out and overcompensating and throwing some brief melodrama your way. Ouch. I don’t know the Neph, of course, but, yeah, it doesn’t seem like he’s ready to be a rolling-in-the-overseas-clover-style UK- or Francophile. ** Bollo, Hi, J! What’s the show that opens … tomorrow, or, hm, today? Give us a peek via photos, if that’s no problem. I had a decently chocolate Easter, even though I completely forgot that Easter was the reason the chocolate was bunny-shaped and was also why I was gorging in the first place. Good luck with the show/opening tonight, man. ** David Ehrenstein, That was some kind of definitive ‘Call Me Maybe’ right there. Thank you. ** Sypha, Gaddis liked ‘Bright Lights Big City’? Now, that is something I would never have imagined. I wonder why. Maybe google will tell me. I love Beckett’s novels, so I have to second Lee and Ligotti. Yeah, I got your email, and I’ll try to write back to you today. I’m just way behind on so many things due to the recent trip, exactly. But I will. ** S., Sounds like your story has a solid destiny. Limp Bizkit, like, a new LB video? I guess they’re still around. I guess I read that that guitarist with the ‘spooky’ contact lens rejoined them or something. ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, Ben. Oh, wow. It’s here! Everyone, it is a momentous occasion because the new issue of the super-great zine among zines Yuck ‘n Yum is just now out, online, and available to all. You can find and read it here, and you simply must! Among the contents this month is a piece by our very own _B-A aka Ben Robinson about the Mike Kelley retrospective at the Stedlijk Museum in Amsterdam, and it includes an interview with yours truly. So, yeah. Go get your eyes on that zine! I’m excited to read your piece, and thank you so much for including me in it. It’s a real honor. I’m going to finish up here and go right over there and dig in. ** Steevee, Cool, the review. Everyone, Steevee has reviewed the much discussed and much liked film ‘Upstream Color’ over on the Gay City News site, and, as always with Steevee’s criticism, the rewards of reading are as plain as the noses on your faces. The review is here. Wonderful about the wisdom of the ‘Sight and Sound’ editor! ** James, Hey. Yeah, RIP Roger Ebert. That was a very poignant news. Ugh. Well, you’re welcome about the book recommendations. Wow, cool that the editing is close to being finished. I envy you, man, if you don’t mind my saying so. Oh, chapter titles. I keep changing my mind about them. I guess most of me thinks there’s a kind trope/ gimmick thing about chapter titles. and I really don’t why I feel that way exactly. But then I think they can be really beautiful and useful and be kind of like the titles of the poems in a poetry book. So, I go back and forth. Actually, ‘God Jr.’ does have chapter titles, as did ‘The Sluts’, so I haven’t really moved away from using them. I just think carefully in each case about whether they need to be there, if they add anything, if the chapters are enhanced or twisted or made more complicated or something if they’re titled. Not such a great answer to your question, I’m sorry. Trust your instincts? ** Chris Dankland, Hi, Chris. Very cool and awesome that the post’s prop of LEK lead you to put her work on NMFS. So pleased by that. The last novel I made a physical scrapbook for was ‘Period’. The scrapbook method was specific to the George Miles Cycle books. After that, I just made kind of online scrapbooks sometimes that weren’t really scrapbooks at all. So, it’s been quite a long time since I made one. It felt good, and it seems like it might help in the way that the scrapbooks used to help. Thanks a lot for filling me in on the readings. I guess it makes sense that there would be a bigger crowd in Austin. I guess I think of Austin as the Texas’ center of what’s happening, even though I guess a lot of the writers from your state who interest me the most don’t actually live there. Hm. Yeah, I really like that Roggenbuck is a rallying point too. It’s one of his real virtues. I’d really like to meet him sometime. Maybe his reach will reach to France once his work gets translated. Wow, even at Joakim’s university. That’s interesting. They do speak incredibly good English up there. I hope you have a good morning too, my friend. ** Right. I have a gig for you today. Especially if you’re driving somewhere and can somehow get the gig into your car’s sound system. But even if not. Even if you just daydream about roads today. Or even if you don’t. See you tomorrow.

Dennis – Hey, glad the email yesterday was handy. It was fun to make. I was thinking of doing a day about Oscar Tuazon actually – if that'd be cool? I know he's been referenced a on a few other days but has there been a full day about him/his work? If not I'd be up for putting something together about him. Big fan of his stuff, as I'm sure I've raved about before.
Great selection here today. Cool that you mentioned about how it would be an ideal driving selection – you've probably seen but on Prurient's Bermuda Drain album there was a tag that said “Listen on headphones at night while driving through tunnels in Europe". So I think he'd be pretty down with you marking his stuff out as being good to drive to.
I love listening to music when I'm in a car. I mean, I don't drive, but when I'm being driven somewhere music is such a cool accompaniment. I suppose its a great example of when an artist's work has a really great space/time (driving often being a neutral/in-between space) that lends to the potential of a very strong collaboration with a listener's imagination and thoughts. It's interesting to think about. I like to listen to Stars of the Lid on my headphones when I'm in transit.
I remember being in a car accident listening to Wolf Eyes, once. Haha, sympathetic soundtrack, right?
Gonna dig into some of the other sounds while I do some writing.
Dennis, Yeah, the fucker still hurts like hell, but the swelling's down and I have a full range of movement. I'm not gonna worry about it unless it falls off. 😀
There really wouldn't be much for The Neph to do. And I truly think he'd be bored. But this is funny: he's somehow turned my telling him I'd do something special for him when we get back into I'll get him a gift and he wants a watch. What the fuck? He's a sneaky little dude.
Dennis, Very Cool mix tape! Locust is just… wait… oh, it's Locust, not THE Locust. Ok – nevermind. I clicked on there expecting the latter's customary geek-fest lunatic destruction, and it took me a while to realize… haha. Dumbass me.
I'm chuffed Burial and FourTet have a track called Wolf Cub, though – I would be, no? Yes.
I really liked Laura Ellen Joyce's stuff yesterday. She sure knows how to set an atmosphere – it's deceivingly simple; crafty as fuck. That TwinPeaks/Satanism video was weeeiiird!! Jesus. Made me wanna watch it all again, and maybe it was intended and/or related but the excerpt from Museum of Atheism had a serious TP vibe to it. I guess I'm a sucker for outdoors scenes.
So, uh, yeah, I had one easter egg that Marc's mum very sweetly made for me (do you know how HARD it is to find vegan easter choco-goodness? On a scale of 1 to 10, around 11.5).
That class I started is online, free, and seriously just how awesome is the internet? For weirdos like me that can only handle 37 minutes of human interaction a day, it's fucking paradise. Thank dog I wasn't born 100 years ago.
Oh, have you tried the Chipotle Tabasco? It's a thing of beauty.
"Bright Lights Big City" must have reminded Gaddis of he New York of his youth.
Hi Dennis
some pics are lurking of FB, prolly more tomorrow after the opening. theyre also up on my website in the recent section.
great mix tape i know and love about half, and funnily enough ive to listening to a lot recently, lots of Noto/ Raster Noton stuff & Demdike Stare related.
gonna bath in the sound of those i dont know.
Hey Dennis,
Been absent a couple days but I blame my day job.
I think you were referring to 'Animal Crossing' on Wednesday, which took a lot of pointers from HM and did its own thing, after which HM started incorporating some AC-type ideas into its games. HM the series seems to have stalled since 2009 or so.
Also, as far as the personal life thing goes, I think you're probably wise to just stall it for a while, but don't give it up completely. I mean, I think a lot of people here really are your friends. I understand your dislike of gossip, of course — I'm from the South, so God knows I live around it night and day.
I'm glad to hear about your scrapbooking; that's a really exciting development for you, I'm sure. I'm so bored with this outlining bullshit dude, I'm not kidding. It's pretty rare for me to want to play Harvest Moon or read rather do some writing for a couple of hours, but that's where I'm at right now. I'm honestly just bored out of my mind.
Did I read you don't take naps? Why don't you take naps? I love naps. I want to take one right now.
Oh, and if you had the chance to read the Tin House thing, I'd be all ears, of course

Thank you to an infinite degree. Just read a bit in a comment about scrap-booking for the George Miles cycle, and then an online version for other stuff. Working on a new novel (I guess? Still feels a bit weird to say that, but I think that's what it will be), and trying to keep 4 distinct characters in mind. Very seriously considering doing some kind of visual mapping of their worlds and personalities, but maybe it would be more productive or a more complete investigation to do it digitally? Hmmm… did it help you to see the whole thing physically in front of you?
Hard to believe people can be so….
Glad to hear you’re moving forward with your novel. Are you planning to use a lot of what you’ve already written?
Whoever's in charge at the Stedlijk sure knows how to put on a show: as of today they have Dundee alumnus Lucy McKenzie with an installation titled “Something they have to live with”. I'm almost tempted to book another boat ride.
Hi Dennis, yes I believe we have imaginary seasons here (kind of the inversion of LA) at the moment. And thanks for all that. hmm, do you think today's mix works for walking around as I'm currently without a car and it seems like a shame to buy one to listen to this?
hi denis
thank you
i know 3 bands here, more lint
LOOP oh yeah, FADE OUT vinyl
from a low distance, it's bees ina tin but loud its o malley
LOOP were messing around with quadaphophonics
vurdrgz
i have some stuff in belgium next month
il let you know dennis
my love, alex,r, xx
Chapel of Darkness
I hope so. I am soon to find out. There is nothing left to do but flesh out the boy. Yeah, it's like a dance song. I also saw a video by that band Train. I'm the next Justin Bieber. Oh god, did I tell you what I did? I had sex with a girl. Now I'm really fucking confused. I keep seeing things. Comets, ravens, 19. Got all my business done. I gotta let this kid rape or I'm gonna lose my mind. Listening to Motorhead.
ar- yes, Fade Out is such a great album! I miss my records, moulding away in storage…
Dennis – keep forgetting to tell you, I saw a couple of bands recently I think you might like…Koban and Lie' (pretend that apostrophe is an accent), both from Vancouver BC. I will try to find a link or two to send you.
I'm thinking of seeing SPRING BREAKERS a second time tomorrow. I really want to catch it again on the big screen.
Dennis, thanks again for getting back to me on the e-mail. My new friend is a big fan of Prurient, so I;ll have to really investigate them further one day. I did get a 3-in-1 collection of Beckett novels last night, and I also ordered Kafka's "The Castle" and "The Trial." I was never that crazy about the Kafka short stories I've read, but maybe I'll feel differently about his novels. Who knows? I need to quit buying novels for now though because I have like 50 novels in my bedroom that are currently unread, and I want to narrow that list down before I buy new ones.
Now that I think about it, that bit of information re: Gaddis on "Bright Lights, Big City" might have been from that "Mr. Difficult" essay by Franzen, so, uh, consider the source, ha ha.
Hey, Dennis! My name is Lee Vincent, and I am 19 years old, a resident of Rhode Island, a student of literature and philosophy at Hampshire College, and a long time follower of the blog. I've never posted on here before for some odd reason, but some of my friends who are fellow followers of your blog have been urging me for a while to start being an active member on here. (Frank Jaffe is a really close friend of mine; I collaborated with him on Issue #3 of PYSSM?!?. And James Champagne I actually just recently struck up a correspondence with, and he recommended I become more active on the blog since – and I quote him directly here – “Dennis likes gay stoners with a taste for Black Metal and French literature.” I couldn't help but giggle at this description of me.)
Anyways, after seeing the post tonight I couldn't resist commenting on just how awesome your music taste is. A lot of the musicians you mention are among my favorites: Laurel Halo, The Haxan Cloak, Burial, Four Tet, Demdike Stare, Prurient. Especially Demdike Stare and Prurient (I assume I am the “new friend” James refers to in the above comment). The Prurient track you included is probably my favorite of his off Worship is the Cleansing of the Imagination. I do have to say, however, that I am probably more partial to JK Flesh's tracks on that record. Being a huge Godflesh fan I can't help but obsess over anything by J Broadrick, and those three tracks of his are some of his best solo stuff since the old Final records. What did you think of Through the Window? Now that is one hell of a record. (I actually do some music writing, and recently wrote about Through the Window: http://everythingischemical.blogspot.com/2013/04/review-prurient-through-window.html#links).
I am also interested in your opinion on Demdike Stare's new release. I've listened to it a couple of times, but I find most of the tracks too abstract and minimal to grab my attention. It's definitely one of their most peculiar records, though.
James will be happy to know I saw someone reading LA BAS today.
Hi Dennis, it's been a while…I've been busy, but always checking in here quickly. Finally my agent and I parted ways, and I feel so relieved…she did get my book out, and she sure believed in it, but the communication between us sucked and I'm so glad to be free. I must be the only person who likes querying, and I've had some requests for it – seems like newer agents, and maybe that's a good thing, people who are a little hungry, not people who think of themselves as bigwigs with big egos to go with the wigs! Ha, I just made that up. Actually, depressed tonight, which is I guess why I'm writing, but on the bright side, Wash Sq Park has started up and it's so nice to be there again, where I've got boys at my feet. Sometimes literally. I love it when they sit down in front of me and we talk psychic talk. And I mean boys of all ages, NYU and otherwise. I'm so happy there, in my element. So, not feeling very encouraged at the moment, just waiting on these repsonses from agents and one from a terrific publisher who I love…I think their ed meeting is soon. Fingers crossed for that. Hope you're doing well after your trip and here's a link you might enjoy. XX
Hey Dennis – Interesting road trip mix, going to give it a thorough spin tomorrow. Are these tracks that were on heavy rotation previously or newer things you guys were checking out?
Just finished up copyedits on the novel and checking out the layout for the galleys. Layout looks good and there's some nice artwork inside by Kiddiepunk. Starting to be able to envision it as a tangible thing, which is weird.
Recently got the Criterion release of A Man Escaped and it has a bunch of extras I thought you might find fascinating – if you haven't already seen them. The Cinema de Notre Temps episode featuring a long interview with Bresson, plus a later interview with Bresson right after the premiere of L'Argent by some young Dutch film students, testimonials by Tarkovksy, etc.
Oh wow Coop. Excellent; your play list resembles mine and as everyone knows… well, I really don’t know. A few exceptions, I don’t know Moonface but will sniff his areas adroitly now. Shed’s new stuff (within that moniker), for me, are a bit too slick, especially amongst the delightfully craggy dirt smack currently running with a swiftness far away from the wobble and bass production mess that became of dubstep and the technicolor sugar smack of maximalism. I will try and retune my contextual earhole. I don’t dislike Clams Casino but I hear the Beer On The Rug, DIS Mag, Vaporwave thing without the meta GarageBand comedy skit… and within that statement, I know I am both off and wrong.
I was going to comment on yesterday’s post (which was fun essential and a nutrient feed for my current headwork) about Pye Corner Audio but felt self-conscious because I couldn’t place it within the context. Perhaps I was moungin too close to see the plate. With reference to Pye I was going to ask if you listen to Demdike Stare and then… pow… You sir have exquisite taste.
Stare’s Testpressing #001 12” and Pye’s Superstitious Century EP are slicing at air and igniting spastic dance parties this month in FlitSpace along side these tasty bits:
Container’s Treatment EP
Prostitutes’ Crushed Interiors LP
Vereker’s Ep1 and EP2
and Black Pus’s All My Relations LP
You all know you want to live with me.
Since Im linking I will step off with this Atom TM as Schneider TM classic.
James and Lee. Hi. I have been seriously considering relocating to Providence RI. I am only 30 or so minutes away as it is. But I want to be closer to the noise scene or some scene. Any insight?
steevee, that makes me very happy indeed. The weirdest thing, when I visited NYC in 2011, my first day there, I saw some guy on the street with a table selling books, and one of the books he was selling was Huysmans' "Against Nature." What made it weird was all the other books he was selling was generic mainstream crap, so it looked very out of place.
Flit, sadly I know very little about there being any noise scene in Providence or not. If there is, I've never heard of it, but I don't visit Providence all that much, so who knows?
That's a fine review of Upstream Color. Will certainly look out for it. Thanks Stevee.
Haneke's Amour is finally in town, sort of. It's screening sporadically here and there. Will try to catch it next week.
Good to see Atom TM is still doing fun stuff. I really enjoyed that latin Kraftwerk album.
The installation went pretty well. I felt kind of bad showing an old piece, but I couldn't get all the kinks in the new version worked out in time. Pretty wiped out today after 5 hours of pounding dance music last night…
Bill
Thanks James. My question was a little loose at the bit. I really want to know about neighbor hoods. Foot location to food, music, art,social life and work. I have a very strong hatred of automobiles (not being around them just relying on em for transport), strip malls, box stores and flat square architecture. Anything that smells like the farts of American utility. Guess I need to do some footwork.
