DORA'LI - SÆIEGLÎ:N

YGR 11
CD-R -49 copies- (4€)


Dorali* is the musical collaboration between delphine dora and 'li.
It's an improvisation project which consists mainly on our two voices
together, and our 4 hands playing the piano. Sometimes, delphine plays
the piano, while 'li sings. Sometimes, it's the contrary.

SÆIEGLÎ:N , our first record, is the result of three afternoon of
improvisations (between february and april 2007).
Vocalizations between whispers and shout, wordless and imaginary
langage, avant-garde piano playing and ethnic primitive sounds: it's
almost what you can hear in this adventurous and free record which
explore the different sides of voice and musical exploration.

SÆIEGLÎ:N is under Creative Commons Licence. You can listen the whole record on our VIRB page.

EDGAR WAPPENHALTER - Vleesarmoede

YGR 10
CD-R + TAPE - - 33 copies (6€) [SOLD OUT]

On a shining star is where we meet for this marriage of cosmic folk and ye olde demonic blues. Capable of immediately cradling the listener on sad melodies and nightly melancholy, Wappenhalter frightens us a couple of minutes later with tremendous atmospheres and a sound that breathes human dirtiness. He awakens old shamans and calls them together for a grand psychedelic mass. What's resting is the perfect soundtrack for some ultra low budget horror series.

The cassette that comes with the cdr is the fruit of a 20 minute improvisation, recorded on one track. These are collages, drones and coagulated tears.

The cdr+tape comes in a special way too big packaging with 5 drawings/collages and one poem.

Edgar Wappenhalter is also a member of Silvester Anfang and belongs to the Funeral Folk collective.

"AYBASI"
by Maurizio Bianchi/M. B.

Tracks:
A. AYBASI
B. ISABYA

Dedicated to Batur Sonmez.

Maurizio Bianchi/M. B. used gelatinous comglomerates of consubstantial sounds, mixed with discretional eviscerated noises.

Antithetic metal crucibles for contemplative adherents.

Biography :

Italian composer Maurizio Bianchi (1955) produced his first tapes of noise in the early 1980s, at the peak of the industrial scene, but his chaotic dissonant orgies harked back to the musique concrete of the 1950s, despite similarities with Nocturnal Emissions, Metabolist, Whitehouse, early Throbbing Gristle. He debuted under the moniker Sacher-Pelz with the home-made cassettes Cainus (1979), Venus (1980), Cease To Exist and Velours, later collected on Mutation For A Continuity (Ees'T). They were all-instrumental collages of electronic sounds. Mectpyo/Blut (1980) was the first cassette to be released under his own name. Under the moniker Leibstandarte, Bianchi released his first vinyl albums: Triumph of the Will (Come Organization, 1981), which recycled material already released on cassette, and Weltanschauung (1982). His most relevant works came out under his own name: Symphony For A Genocide (Sterile, 1981), possibly his most terrifying work, Nh/HnMenses (EEs'T, 1982), another classic of horror-shock musical reportage, divided in two lengthy suites (particularly Scent). There followed less powerful works, such as the film soundtrack Morder Unter Uns (Mectpyo Sounds, 1982), and two "softer" albums divided in two lengthy halves each, Regel (EEs'T, 1982) and Mectpyo Bakterium (DYS, 1982), possibly his softest album of the decade. (Grafika Airlines, 1981),

He quickly return to his usual standards with Endometrio (EEs'T, 1983), his second artistic peak and the manifesto of his "bionic" aesthetics, the more accessible Carcinosi (EEs'T, 1983), Das Testament (Mectpyo Sounds, 1983), announced as his last record and containing two of his most extreme suites, and the film soundtrack Armaghedon (EEs'T, 1984), all of them comprised of lengthy free-form suites of noise. The one notable exception was The Plain Truth (Broken Flag, 1983), in the vein of German electronic music.

Industrial Murder (Banned Production, 1992) and Aktivitat (Zabriskie Point, 1992) collect unreleased and rare material.

After a long hiatus, Bianchi returned to music with a metaphysical trilogy of sort, Colori (Ees'T, 1998), First Day Last Day (1999) and Dates (2001), in which religious and philosophical themes dominate, and the sound is much calmer and almost ambient, while FrammentiAntarctic Mosaic (2003) seemed to hark back to his original style of the 1980s. These works, possibly influenced by new-age music, were much more relaxed and almost negated the expressionist power of his early experiments. (2002) and

Chaotische Fraktale (2003) and Letzte Technologie (0404) are collaborations with Frequency In Cycles Per Second (Sandro Kaiser). Zehn Tage/Touka (2004) and The House Of Mourning (Radiotarab, 2005) were collaborations with German duo Telepherique. Through these collaborations, Bianchi slowly returned to atonal industrial music.

The hypnotic Cycles (Ees't, 2004) explored different kinds of loops and pauses.

A M. B. Iehn Tale (Small Voices, 2004), a collection of "piano decompositions," (minimalist/ambient pieces for piano and electronic dissonances) and the double-CD Mind Us Trial (EEs't, 2005) continued his regression to darker moods.

M. I. Nheem Alysm (Silentes, 2005) contains two lengthy piano suites a` la Cycles (Ees't, 2004).

Blut und Nebel (EES'T, 2005), that "remixes" the first ten LPs of the early 1980s, is an excellent demonstration of Bianchi's skills at dadaistic collage, free-form improvisation and abstract soundsculpting, as accrued over twenty years of electronic manipulation. Noise is employed like an electric guitar to produce solos of manic intensity.

Junkyo (Noctovision) and Mectpyo Saisei (Para Disc) are collaborations with Aube.

New collaborations include: Psychoneurose (Manifold, 2005) with Land Use, one of the best of this phase, Final Signal (2005) with Frequency In Cycles Per Second, Secluded Truths (Silentes, 2005) with NIMH.

Bianchi's prolific career continued with Niddah Emmhna (Silentes, 2005), Neuro-munalpMen's True Hated (Menstrualrecordings, 2005), The Testamentary Corridor (Staalplat, 2006). (Small Voices, 2005),

The Epidemic Symphony No 9 (Octpia, 2006) is actually a work mainly by Japanese soundsculptor Hitosji Kojo.

Arkaeo Planum (Small Voices, 2007) is a collaboration with Italian sound artist TH26.

K-Branding - Haircut

YGR06 (SOLD OUT)
CD-R
(50 copies) 4€

At the begenning, K-branding was a sextet of improvised music called at this time : "The Monday Guys". In february 2004, the sextet becomes a trio and takes the name "K". The trio is composed by Sébastien Schmit (ex-member of the band Quiet) at the drums, by Vincent Stefanutti at the saxophon and percussions and by Duby Grégory (member of The Invisible Frog) at the guitar. The first goal of the trio is to combine the freedom of improvised music and the violence of punk and noise music. After a while, effects take much place and the music becomes more experimental. The colour of K was found : a mix of free jazz, noise, no-wave, soundtracks,…

In November 2004, K released a 5-title cd-r demo and changes their name into "K-branding". The demo received an enthousiastic echoes from specialized press. The trio gives is first concert in february 2005. Six months later, the band played at the Dour Festival to open the Nameless Stage. Since its first concert, K-branding has played with bands such as L'Enfance Rouge (fr), The Chinese Stars (us), The Georges Leningrad (can), Cougars (US), Vandal X (b), DAAU (b), AIDS Wolf (can), Milgram (fr), An Albatross (us), …

In December 2005, the band goes to the studio to record a second EP composed of four new songs and two improvisation themas from the first demo. The EP is recorded by M. Bodson from Patton at the Magasin 4. Its name is ‘Das Ding' and it is released on the label FF HHH.


Haircut is a compilation of improvisations made during 2006 and 2007. All tracks are self-recorded at home. Mixing was made by Chloé Duby, mastering by Gil Kockelmans & Chloé Duby and photo by Sébastien Schmit.

Zoulk Session 01
Net Release

Les Zoulk Sessions, ce sont des sessions live qui s’invitent dans les émissions radio de nos athlètes asthmatiques préférés. Le premier hôte de ces Zoulk Sessions est le seul chef d’orchestre à moumoute vierge de Belgique : Eric Kool Strings.

Le Bozok Terror Trio est le premier invité de ces Zoulk Sessions ((((((ainsi que leurs congénères congénitaux Maxème © de MataNOmore © et Congestion Nasale du ventre de sa mère.)))))))))))))))))

La bio pour les Beefteaks:
El bozok grotesk trio was born somewhere between both ends of the 70's, but has only been activative since some sunny days in early 2005. We've never played for an audience, only for ourselves, rehearsing (sic) in bozok's living room, and now in the thomic bunker on the hill facing the grand towerz of tihange. Our style goes far beyond harsh noise; it's a story of executing our minds, swallowing our phantasmagoric ideas and, above all, killing our envy/needs of fucking. Please note that lady bozok has never been a member of btt/bgt. We only invaded her bathroom, as well as some other rooms of her ranch, and had no relationship with her.

Si le début de l’émission est trop sérieux pour votre taux d’alcoolémie du jour, veuillez passer directement à la 27^ème minute.

- 01: Bozok Terror Trio (+ Congestion Anale)

Enregistré à Liège le dimanche 25 mars 2007.

C.Hilton/Y.Franck - a~matra

YGR 04 (SOLD OUT here, MANDAÏ is ok)
CD-R (50 copies) - 4€ -

Craig Hilton (USA) has been composing sound via elecroacoustic transformation and live improvisation for over 13 years. Trained originally as a classical guitarist, the sonic possibilities of «musique concrete " and other methods of sound manipulation/composition, led him to further study the primary idea of sound itself . Taking these techniques he founded the performance art troupe Center for Transgressive Behaviors in Raleigh, NorthCarolina, and remained their sound designer for several tours of the US and Europe. He also toured with the free improvisation ensemble, The Feraliminal Lycanthropizers, playing electric guitar and electronics and sharing the stage with Tim Hodgkinson and Franz Hautzinger in Europe. His continued interest in spectralist and post-concrete music resulted in the solo release 'L'Eve...' and a collaborative effort with Koji Tano's MSBR project. His recent collaborations with the legendary Maurizio Bianchi and Yannick Franck are scheduled for release later this year on Simple Logic (Poland) and Young Girls Records (Belgium) along with several new works to follow up soon thereafter.

Yannick Franck is a multidisciplinar artist from Belgium, envolved in electroacoustic composition / improvisation and visuals.
His art could be qualified as abstract and meditative. By various experimental practices and processes, Yannick Franck underlines his relation to the world, observes and transforms the components of reality. Shade and light, vibration and resonance are delivered as components of his artworks.The datas of the physical world's permanent alterations, becoming naturally abstract, are asserted as (a)esthetic elements.

"A~Matra was a piece that realistically created itself in many ways . When i first received the original sound files from Yannick, i decided to take the more complex samples, or sounds that had what i felt to have many overtones or a certain amount of complexity inherent in the sound itself . As with all recent compositions of mine, i wanted to find the inner rhythm or tones by completely dissecting these sounds and use them to almost create going in reverse .. i.e. trying to create something organic/acoustic as opposed to usually the other way around . The result is a sort of orchestral instrumentation, sections that sound like tremelo or spiccato strings, and percussion can be heard, yet they are only hinted at, i'm always trying to create new "instruments" every piece i compose. As for the general outline or design for the piece, the sounds themselves created it, and with most of my pieces, i prefer not to have a general outline ahead of time, i let the sounds relationships construct themselves, a sort of homage to the spectralist idea. The title A~Matra comes from the Sanskrit meaning: «of indefinite measure, undetermined», which really applies more to the original compositional process than the the final product."
