Bio information: RADIO MASSACRE INTERNATIONAL Title: EMISSARIES (Cuneiform Rune 211/ 212) Cuneiform promotion dept: (301) 589-8894 / fax (301) 589-1819 email: [email protected] (press & overseas radio); [email protected] (North American radio) http://www.CuneiformRecords.com FILE UNDER: ELECTRONIC / ROCK / SPACE MUSIC As a musical genre, electronic music – music created by, and specifically for, electronic instruments - is now over three decades old, as old as electronic instruments themselves. The mysterious dials, knobs and antennae on the electrically-charged inventions of Robert Moog, Theremin, and others, enticed musicians to explore a universe of sounds radically different from those produced by traditional instruments. American musicians like Terry Riley, Walter Carlos and Mother Mallard’s Portable Masterpiece Co. began writing a new, avant- classical music to exploit synthesized sonics. Overseas, such artists as Tangerine Dream, Cluster and Klaus Schulze in Germany, Heldon in France, and Fripp & Eno in England, created new rock-based electronic musics. The explorations of these electronic pioneers spawned numerous sub-genres of electronic music, with names such as space music, electronic soundscapes, ambient music, new age, space rock, techno, and industrial music. Today, a new generation of visionary musicians continues to explore the frontiers of electronic sound through composition, improvisation, and mixtures thereof. They are expanding the boundaries of electronic music’s interrelated and often overlapping sub-genres, refining and redefining their sound, and creating some of the best instrumental music of the present day. Radio Massacre International (RMI) is a British electronic music trio who is carving out new ground in the genre of space music. -

4. Northern England 1. Progress in Hell Northern England was both the center of the European industrial revolution and the birthplace of industrial music. From the early nineteenth century, coal and steel works fueled the economies of cities like Manchester and She!eld and shaped their culture and urban aesthetics. By 1970, the region’s continuous mandate of progress had paved roads and erected buildings that told 150 years of industrial history in their ugly, collisive urban planning—ever new growth amidst the expanding junkyard of old progress. In the BBC documentary Synth Britannia, the narrator declares that “Victorian slums had been torn down and replaced by ultramodern concrete highrises,” but the images on the screen show more brick ruins than clean futurescapes, ceaselessly "ashing dystopian sky- lines of colorless smoke.1 Chris Watson of the She!eld band Cabaret Voltaire recalls in the late 1960s “being taken on school trips round the steelworks . just seeing it as a vision of hell, you know, never ever wanting to do that.”2 #is outdated hell smoldered in spite of the city’s supposed growth and improve- ment; a$er all, She!eld had signi%cantly enlarged its administrative territory in 1967, and a year later the M1 motorway opened easy passage to London 170 miles south, and wasn’t that progress? Institutional modernization neither erased northern England’s nineteenth- century combination of working-class pride and disenfranchisement nor of- fered many genuinely new possibilities within culture and labor, the Open Uni- versity notwithstanding. In literature and the arts, it was a long-acknowledged truism that any municipal attempt at utopia would result in totalitarianism. -

TIMO VAN LUIJK EVENTS, NEW COMPOSITIONS AND RECORDS RECENTLY RELEASED ON THE METAPHONE LABEL ===================================================================== ===================================================================== "L'ORO NERO" by TIMO VAN LUIJK "L'Oro Nero" (the black gold) is a multitrack composition for concrete sounds, flute, harmonica and voice. This piece, commissioned by Musica in Neerpelt (Belgium), is inspired by the local coalmines abondoned since the late 80's. A sonic chart of the subterranean atmosphere and the decay of the gigantic remaining desolate sites. All concrete sounds and instruments were recorded in the corridors of the mine museum in Beringen.

KLUSTER Schwarz (Eruption)
KLUSTER Schwarz (Eruption) Reissue (originally released in 1971) CD / LP (180g vinyl) / download Release date: November 16, 2012 Label: Bureau B In a few words: Cat no.: BB 112 - Kluster was a short-lived project of three musicians/artists/performers: Dieter Moebius, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Konrad Schnitzler. Barcode (EAN): Kluster disbanded as Moebius and Roedelius found the financial risk CD 4047179659925 of bringing out a third album too daunting. Schnitzler decided to go LP 4047179659918 ahead on his own, releasing the material they had recorded together, without any information or credits on the LP sleeve. Moebius and Distributor: Indigo Roedelius continued as a duo under the name of Cluster . Indigo order no.: - Originally released 1971 on KS 1001 965992 (CD) - Liner notes by Asmus Tietchens 965991 (LP) - Available as CD, download and 180g vinyl The official Konrad Schnitzler discography lists “Eruption”, released in 1971 under the title “Schwarz” (catalogue number KS 1001), as the first Tracklisting: Schnitzler album. In actual fact, “Eruption” is the third and final LP by the group Kluster, following “Klopfzeichen” and “Zwei Osterei”. The line- 1. Eruption 1 up printed on the labels leaves no room for doubt. Unlike the two (31:04) previous albums, “Eruption” was not issued by the Schwann Verlag, but 2. Eruption 2 by the band on its own, hence the task of financing the record fell to the (25:30) participants. Roedelius and Moebius, however, were either unable or unwilling to get involved in this risky business. Without further ado, Schnitzler decided to cover the cost of pressing up 200 LPs which he would bring out under his own name. -
Rückkopplungen Aus Dem Zodiak Free Arts Lab
BILDET NISCHEN! Rückkopplungen aus dem Zodiak Free Arts Lab HAU 21.–26.9.2021 Bildet Nischen! Rückkopplungen aus dem Zodiak Free Arts Lab 21.–26.9.2021 / HAU1 Im Winter des Jahres 1967 begann der Musiker und Künstler Conrad Schnitzler, auf Einladung des Wirtes Paul Glaser in zwei Räumen unter der damaligen Schaubühne am Halleschen Ufer, dem heutigen HAU2, das Programm zu gestalten. Mit Mit strei - ter:innen betrieb er das Zodiak Free Arts Lab über ein Jahr lang als hierarchiefreien Raum für musikalische Experimente und interdisziplinären Austausch. Bis 1969 diente das Zodiak als künstlerischer wie sozialer Treffpunkt. Trotz des kurzen Be- stehens kann es als initiierender Ort für zahlreiche musikalische Entwicklungen ver- standen werden – vor allem für die kurze Zeit später entstehende “Berliner Schule”, deren Sound oft unter dem Begriff “Krautrock” zusammengefasst wird und der bis heute in diversen musikalischen Strömungen nachhallt. “Bildet Nischen! Rückkopplungen aus dem Zodiak Free Arts Lab” begibt sich auf Spurensuche und beleuchtet die Verbindungen aus politischen, sozialen und kultu- rellen Verhältnissen, die auf die Szene um das Zodiak einwirkten. Welche Gemenge - lagen setzen auch heute noch Energien frei, die sich in (pop-)kulturellen Entwick- lungen manifestieren? Wie findet sich Gegenkultur und welcher Räume bedarf es dafür? Lassen sich Spuren und Bezüge des Zodiak in der kulturellen Praxis späterer subkultureller Entwicklungen im Berliner Underground aufzeigen? Fragestellungen wie diese bleiben bis in die aktuelle Gegenwart für die Entwicklung künstlerischer Positionen relevant. In einem Programm aus Konzerten, Kollaborationen, Installa- tionen, Gesprächen und einer Lecture Performance geht das HAU ihnen nach. Ein Festival des HAU Hebbel am Ufer. -
