Vanishing Point 19 June 2012

A week can go so bloody fast these days and the last seven days sped by.  I was fortunate enough to have my air-conditioning unit go critical on me the other day blasting my workspace with hot air whilst the rest of my building was a balmy 19 degrees throughout.  Fortunate because i got to crawl through my ceiling and get acquainted with an ancient unit that hummed in a most fantastic way.  I think I spent almost an hour marvelling at the resonant tone and the phasing generated by the echo in the confined space whilst i wrestled with aluminium flexible ducting. And oh my god it rained as well (on the tin roof) adding a texture to the sound that made me cry at the thought that it all could have been recorded for others to enjoy.

On a darker note i've been revisiting the Hellraiser Octopulet and managed to get through three movies in seven days (5 movies to go plus Dark City).  Watching these films in 15 minute instalments throughout the day is a great way to increase the tension inherent in the plot.  Its not that i have any form of attention deficit and cant focus for an entire film, i'm just to busy to sit for 2 hours in a row but lucky enough to have my own business where i can do what the hell i want between client contacts.....

Vanishing Point 5 June 2012

Another bloody cold night in Adelaide.  I've had Kikuchi Yukinori on high rotation again this week and strangely EVERYTHING has slowed down to the pace of that album, even peak hour traffic. Spooky. But that's the new quantum reality for you.

You know those shit indi bands who compete for their focus track to sell the next new car?  Well i was so very pleased to hear a cut up noise track selling the new Peugeot 508 (even though the point of the track was to highlight how silent the car can be inside).

Vanishing Point 15 May 2012

Welcome to another Vanishing Point insertion. Today has been a landmark day for me...my daughter's second birthday.  The day was one long episode of opening gifts and exploring new things.  Luckily we are huge book buyers (and borrowers) and this meant most gifts were books (Phew! I loath plastic shit fashioned into toys and force fed to children).

Once again i'm trotting out Psychic TV but this time its a long long long track.....the awesome trip Cold Dark Matter.  Fifty eight minutes over a number of movements ending in spoken word.

It was good to flick through the new releases section here at 3D Radio and find a Don Preston reissue of early experimental music.  I'll be pulling out my Mothers Of Invention tapes during the week.....

Track List
(BAND, Track. Album).
1. MARTIN BLAND, Track 2.  Randomised Control Trials
2. DON PRESTON, Electronic Music.  Filters, Oscillators and Envelopes 1967-1982.
3. PSYCHIC TV, Cold Dark Matter.  Cold Dark Matter (1992).
4. MONARCH, Black Becomes The Sun.  Omens (2012).
5. GUPPA D'IMPROVVISAZIONE, Eflot. Nuova Consonanza.

This is the link to Martin Bland's blog.  Some good tunes available here.

Check out Monarch. This band gets better with each release.  Dead Men Tell No Tales was one of my favs in the year it was released. Sabot Noir was fantastic as well but Omens (2012) takes their down tempo to another dimension.  I dare say Omens has hints of the Grey Daturas especially the track Black Becomes the Sun.... Not a bad thing at all.....i still grieve the end of the Daturas.

Here is a link to Monarch....enjoy.

Catch you next week.
I'm off for a vanishing pint
