Peter Sotos is a former member of the noise/power electronics masters Whitehouse (you can get some vids of their last live show here). He's also a good writer, in the same vein of Denis Cooper : a man who likes children and teenagers, always in an happy mood, living in a fairy tale world.

RHYS CHATHAM - A CRIMSON GRAIL : FOR 400 ELECTRIC GUITARS


released bu Tony Conrad's TABLE OF ELEMENTS

"Written for 400 guitars and performed live in the basilica of landmark Sacré-Coeur - with 10,000 people watching and 100,000 more on national TV. As the music shimmers, it offers a snapshot of eternity, an echo of a moment a thousand years gone - and a thousand years yet to come." (Rhys Chatham website)
I saw Rhys Chatham performing twice : first the amazing An Angel Moves Too Fast To See (For 100 Electric Guitars, Electric Bass, And Drums) in the Art Center "Lieu Unique" in Nantes ; then the mesmerizing Guitar Trio in the independant festival SOY (http://alicerabbit.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html).

"Tous les chemins passent par Othon" ("All the roads pass by Othon") is a movie directed by la galerie du cartable (Fabrice Cotinat, David Legrand, Henrique Martins-Duarte). It's a new version of "Les Yeux ne veulent pas en tout temps se fermer, ou Peut-être qu'un jour Rome se permettra de choisir à son tour" (Eyes Do Not Want to Close at All Times, or, Perhaps One Day Rome Will Allow Herself to Choose in Her Turn), a 1969 movie by french radical directors Straub et Huillet.

"Tous les chemins passent par Othon" is like a "dogma 95" version of the original film, shoot from 2000 to 2003, with non-professionals actors, in various french cities where la galerie du cartable was invited to perform.
It will be spread during the exhibition "Le Couloir des Miroirs/ The Corridors of Mirrors" in Limoges, at the FRAC Limousin (Contemporary Art Foundation) every two days, from November 21st till March 7th.

This exhibition will show art movies by Mac Adams, Michel Aubry, Thomas Bayrle, Laurent Chambert, Claude Closky, Jean-Pierre Bertrand, Gregg Biermann, Philippe Durand, Gabriele Di Matteo, Franck Eon, Thomas Köner, la galerie du cartable, Olivier Leroi, Sébastien Leroy, Gilles Mahé, Christian Marclay, Stéphane Pichard, André Raffray, Jean Sabrier, Muriel Toulemonde, Kerry Tribe, Boyd Webb.

Pour cette 1ère soirée du samedi 18 octobre 2008 de la saison au bar du lieu unique, l’association nantaise Tak_Taak pose les larges bases musicales qu’elle défend et affectionne en proposant une longue flânerie électronique en forme de mix dans lequel CENTRAL SERVICES et SCHWARZBINGO feront se croiser des classiques du Krautrock, de l’Electro, de la House, et de la Techno, en les saupoudrant de curiosités musicales d’hier et d’avant-hier.

TONIGHT IS KUBIN'S NIGHT



I'm waiting, listening to MATKI WANDALKI (2004) - RS

>> UPDATE<<
Organized by The Brain, the concert should have happened in a in a supposedly underground place of Nantes. So, it looked like an underground place, full of ex-fine arts students and supposed fashionistas, in the new city's nightlife area.
We are waiting for Kubin, The Brain is mixing some lo-fi electronics from 10 pm to midnight...but Kubin is still drinking beers with people of the audience and a new DJ come to mixing... I am not there for dancing or hearing another crap set, so I left. Very disappointing.

Both of these Sonic Youth Recordings series albums were released in 2008.
Thanks to the now defunct unblogandalou.blogspot.com

SYR7: J'Accuse Ted Hughes/Agnès B. Musique
is the seventh release in American group Sonic Youth's SYR series (40 min).
LINK - MEDIAFIRE

SYR8: Andre Sider Af Sonic Youth
is an album by Sonic Youth with Mats Gustafsson and Merzbow. It is the eighth release in the SYR series. The album title is in Danish and means "Other sides of Sonic Youth".
This is taken from a live show which features full band improv. Players leave the stage one at a time until Merzbow is left. Then he makes some noises. Then he leaves.

Live review : SONIC YOUTH + SUNBURNED HAND OF THE MAN



The post-industrial city of Saint-Nazaire, near Nantes, well-known for his ship-building port and his former german submarine base, hosted last summer the exhibition called The SONIC YOUTH etc. : SENSATIONAL FIX dedicated to the connexions between Sonic Youth and various visual artists, designers and musicians (Vito Acconci, Dan Graham, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman, John Miller, Christian Marclay, Tony Oursler, Richard Kern, Patti Smith, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, John Cage, Glenn Branca, Mike Kelley, Raymond Pettibon, Cameron Jamie, Tacita Dean and Michael Morley, among others...)

At the opening, we could see the four members of SN and some Sunburned's freaks among the visitors. I don't like the openings, but some friends told me SY would play a show there to mark the event with Sunburned Hand of The Man. So, with some friends and a little excitement, here I am... No pictures, no vids, no tape recordings... It was the most powerfull concert I see, better than the Whitehouse one, and, maybe, than the TG one ! The best show of the year !
First, Moore, Gordon and SHOTM's drummer played together, then, Gordon left and one after another the members of SHOTM came to stage, followed by Ranaldo and Malcolm Morley... Electricity, energy, noise and tension rose to a deafening din, a chamanic trance and a final guitar battle. Absolutely astonishing.

The exhibit is now held at Museion, Bolzano from October 11th 2008 to January 4th , and will also go to Dusseldorf, Germany (1/31-4/26/09), Malm, Sweden (5/29-9/20/09).

ROBERT HAIGH TRUTH CLUB/FOTE (1980-1981)

I re-up this post with new material : truth club/fote ep + truth club's track from United Dairies's "Hoisting The Black Flag" compilation.

Truth Club - Sleight / Fote - Looking For Lost Toy (7" LeRey 1980)
Truth Club et Fote sont deux projets de Robert Haigh (Sema, Omni Trio) avec le percussionniste Trevor Reidy (collaborateur de Stapleton dans les premiers disques de NWW).
Peu de choses à part ce single, sinon un morceau sur la compilation Hoisting The Black Flag sur United Dairies.
A classer dans les raretés de la scène expérimentale et industrielle du début des années 1980.
Truth Club and Fote are two Robert Haigh's aliases, less known that his Sema or Omni trio projects. Here, Robert Haigh worked with early Nurse With Wound drummer Trevor Reidy. Thruth Club appeared in the United Dairies compilation Hoisting The Black Flag.
An early industrial rarity.

autre chose que des motherfuckers


Michel Godicheau, un bon ami à moi, vient de prendre sa retraite de l'Éducation Nationale et profite de l'occasion pour éditer un petit pamphlet qui s'appuie sur ses expériences de militant syndical ouvrier et indépendant dans le petit monde de l'enseignement. C'est drôle, énervant et bien écrit. Ça s'appelle "autre chose que des motherfuckers" et ça coûte à peine 8 euros.
Vous pouvez l'acheter en allant sur son blog

Ce petit livre (85p) paraît en mai 2008 alors que les médias glosent sur l’anniversaire de «mai 1968», mais c’est un hasard, c’est seulement parce que j’ai pris du retard.
Ceci dit, c’est vrai, j’ai connu ça, comme salarié gréviste, mais la génération des lycéens et étudiants d’aujourd’hui m’intéresse davantage que les sinistres repentis que l’on fait parler un peu partout. En 2006, la jeunesse a fait reculer le gouvernement au compte de la défense du Code du Travail. Ce ne sont pas des motherfuckers. Je les quitte en ce mois de mai, mais je continue mon combat de militant ouvrier, qui passe par le combat pour le droit à l’instruction, aujourd’hui en cours de destruction.
Il paraît que le pamphlet est un genre démodé. Ca tombe bien moi aussi.
Attention, pourtant, ça peut couper !

Le quotidien « La Croix » publiait le 16 avril 2008 la brève suivante :
« L’école victime de la hausse des prix. La hausse des prix alimentaires risque de dissuader de nombreux parents d‘envoyer leurs enfants à l’école dans les pays pauvres, a averti hier le Fonds des Nations-Unies pour l’Enfance (UNICEF). L’impact de la hausse des prix est particulièrement fort dans les pays pauvres où la nourriture absorbe 75% du revenu des familles, contre 15 % dans les pays riches. »

Laissons un instant les signaux envoyés par « La Croix » («In hoc signo, vinces ?»), je serais comblé si, pour quelques-uns des lecteurs de mon petit livre, s’éclairaient un peu les questions suivantes :
- Quel est le rapport entre Gabriel Cohn-Bendit et le papier Zig-Zag ?
- Faut-il larguer Meirieu au-dessus du Burundi ou plutôt au Ténéré ?
- Que fait-on d’un élève mort de faim qui refuse de quitter la classe ?
- Que fait mon syndicat pour le syndicat des enseignants tchadiens ?
- Pour ou contre les biocarburants ?
- Pourquoi les familles des pays pauvres sont-elles si goinfres et ne devraient-elles pas préférer l’École ?

THROBBING GRISTLE - 32nd ANNUAL REPORT - LIVE IN PARIS, VILLETTE SONIQUE (2008-08-06)

TG played a new version of "Second Annual Report", 30 years after the original release. We could see the "After Cease to exist" movie (very creepy, some men of the audience fall down) and the band came back to stage to played a technoid version of "Zyklon B Zombie". A must ! One of my favourite lives ever !
Anyone can tell me what is the thing Sleazy played with ?

UPDATE: thanks to the black lizard who give me this. I don't listen to it, so I don't know the quality. Enjoy ! the 32nd annual report (bootleg) [rs]

Live review : CHROMATICS - PARIS, VILLETTE SONIQUE (2008-08-06)

In the park (of La Villette), and not in the dark, the pretty Ruth Radelet sung all he hits of the band, totally extinguished. It was so excitiiiiiiing ! The drummer was hided in a corner of the stage, Johnny Jewel was brilliant and the guitarist tried to play a rock gig with the stamina of a tuna... Good sound, good vibes and she's so cuuuuuuuute !

TONIGHT IT'S TG NIGHT !


PARIS LA VILLETTE SALLE CHARLIE PARKER 20H30 - VIVA AND THE DIVA / PAN SONIC / TG

Throbbing Gristle (Uk)
Groupe formé à Londres en 1976, souvent considérés comme les pionniers de la musique industrielle de la génération post-punk anglaise. Tous autant performeurs que Musiciens. Leur formation se démarque par des concerts dérangeant tant sur le plan auditif que sur le côté visuel. Saturations, provocations, improvisations sur machines électroniques, scénographies déjantées, expériences live bruitistes et cathartiques... bienvenue dans l'univers retentissant de Throbbing Gristle, le nec plus ultra de l'avant-garde sonore et de la transgression visuelle de ces trois dernières décennies.
Premier concert en France !

Pan Sonic (Fin)
Groupe emblématique de la scène électronique expérimentale, les finlandais Mika Vainio et Ilpo Väisänen imposent depuis les années 90 un son dur, abrasif et épuré qui influenca autant la sphère techno la plus exigeante que les adeptes d'expérience extrême. Jouant sur des oscillations de fréquence pure à haute teneur en décibels et sur des infrabasses qui font l'effet de secousses sismiques, Pan Sonic sont les pionniers de la techno minimale, dans sa version bruitiste industrielle. Une vision pour le moins radicale de la rave party.

VIva and The Diva (Fr)
«Viva and the Diva » projet placé sous le sceau du krautrock, le rock psychédélique allemand des seventies, dans lequel se retrouvent autour du guitariste Maxime Delpierre, Arnaud Roulin, spécialiste des synthétiseurs dévoyés, le batteur écossais Mark Kerr (Rita Mitsouko), et Sir Alice (alias Alice Daquet), nouvelle égérie des musiques expérimentales.
