It was there that Agnes Heginger and Karlheinz Essl performed for the first time as a duo, developing an improvised musical dialogue 'out of the blue'. Somehow 'out of the blue' fit perfectly for me because I was looking for a way out of my melancholy December mood. Instead of chairs there were cushions spread out on the floor that seemed to invite the audience to a direct, unconventional and comfortable listening experience.<br />The Essl/Heginger performance: responsive, unpretentious and focused. There was a positive feeling of closeness and a friendly attentiveness towards the audience.<br /><br />From the very first moment I was stunned and amazed, and at the same time touched and fascinated with what then happened. As I sank deeper into my floor cushion, I felt almost embarrassed by a let's say 'complete sense of happiness'. Two highly sensitive personalities engaged each other in a dialogue that should go down in history as a prime example of musical interaction.<br /><br />There were many innovative moments, alternating quite willingly the musicians pulled each other into reflection, with clear sighted independence, fusing things into perspective. With a dramatic climax at the perfect moment, they communicated affectionately with virtuoso clarity to a spellbound audience. Whether it was 'out of the blue' or carefully planned, the opportunity to listen to Agnes Heginger's and Karlheinz Essl's musical dialogue was indeed my good fortune.<br /><br />You were certainly left hoping that this musical conversation will be continued.<br /><br />Press review by Jörg Duit <br /><br /></div><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/011BreathTaking_Duo.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/022InDieKhlenSterne_AgnesHegingerSolo.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/033ActionRituelle_Duo.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/044NonSequitur_KarlheinzEsslSolo.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/055Alleingewirr_AgnesHegingerSolo.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue/066GroovinOut_Duo.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Listen+to+xs72KarlheinzEssl-OutOfBlue+at+archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-1212427875739414152010-04-12T12:01:00.005+01:002010-04-12T13:46:52.556+01:00[xs-71] cage cabarrett - covil radiophonic workshop<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmNXYjiDbXztOYWgot0q-oa-O9F_AqT97Tqub56RRaHERch4aaVs46k0WlJzhhvEEyRg8hJg0icb2dNuwFNH8HNQH-OD7sh83qsXWWhgmf3O__gv7MNJijdd0NZW53fr-KzEqNGa4cZvk/s1600/xs-71.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmNXYjiDbXztOYWgot0q-oa-O9F_AqT97Tqub56RRaHERch4aaVs46k0WlJzhhvEEyRg8hJg0icb2dNuwFNH8HNQH-OD7sh83qsXWWhgmf3O__gv7MNJijdd0NZW53fr-KzEqNGa4cZvk/s400/xs-71.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5459205960807134290" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">artist: cage cabarrett</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">album: covil radiophonic workshop</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs71CageCabarrett-CovilRadiophonicWorkshop/xs71CageCabarrett-CovilRadiophonicWorkshop_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">release date: 31/03/2010<br /></span><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs71CageCabarrett-CovilRadiophonicWorkshop"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">contacts: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/cagebarrett"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs71CageCabarrett-CovilRadiophonicWorkshop/xs-71.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div></div><div>Cage Cabarrett explores notions of indeterminacy in art. We encourage a DIY aesthetic and we value simplicity over complexity. Like Dada before, Cage Cabarrett stands for a strong anti-commercialism attitude and an anti-art sensibility, disparaging the conventional market-driven art world in favor of an artist-centered creative practice.<br />We believe in the creation of art by chance, exploiting the principle of randomness. The word derives from the Latin word alea, the rolling of dice. We give you the sound of that rolling dice.

This work is a simple and amazing multi-track recording, featuring a very naif, and well-acomplished work, which features improvisation, with found instruments, namely a whole-range of instruments, that are basically found objects, and which reflect the best spirit and stuff made by Heitor Alves, when trying to seek for transposing with transcendentalism his personal life experiences of the summer, to the music he made. Aesthetically it basically results, in a simple, but well archieved recording which comes from the ideias of Pierre Schaeffer and Pierre Henry, to Pauline Oliveros, going throught stuff like John Cage, and Beatriz Ferreira. All made with a very personal aproach, throught improvisation, and studio recording techniques<br /><br />For those who don't actually don't know, Heitor Alves builds electronic instruments, having already build to people such as Vitor Rua, Rafael Toral among others. You can find them in http://www.musicfromouterspace.com/.<br /><br />Have a nice day listening to this music, and share this experience with your family and friends.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-69HeitorAlves.GimmeSomeMoreSounds/HeitorAlves-GimmeSomeMoreSounds.mp3","autoPlay":false}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":false,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs-69HeitorAlves.GimmeSomeMoreSounds at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed> </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-39106427485552244582009-10-24T18:22:00.006+01:002009-10-27T10:50:22.851+00:00[xs-68] karlheinz essl and matthew ostrowski - flechtwerk<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc07pZ_twK7X-9Asq_M51UsMhltUsEIoy7LmfufWaEWL1AqlJotbgxU1D6Cl-DjfNMTsF0HZ8xwokPNTlk3vBCo1h3gPhM6EjLd5dMD-rZNMkggBHX3mQfgF5gumZM73JC0b1Be9gfnUI/s1600-h/xs-68.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc07pZ_twK7X-9Asq_M51UsMhltUsEIoy7LmfufWaEWL1AqlJotbgxU1D6Cl-DjfNMTsF0HZ8xwokPNTlk3vBCo1h3gPhM6EjLd5dMD-rZNMkggBHX3mQfgF5gumZM73JC0b1Be9gfnUI/s400/xs-68.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5396218770777019938" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: karlheinz essl and matthew ostrowski</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: flechtwerk</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk_vbr_mp3.zip">download</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 24/10/2009</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk">more details and stream</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: <a href="http://www.myspace.com/karlheinzessl">myspace</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: <a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/xs-68_bc.jpg">back</a> & <a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/xs-68_fc.jpg">front</a></span></div><br />On May 5th 2009, Austrian composer Karlheinz Essl and New York-based sound artist Matthew Ostrowski met for a free improvisation concert at ISSUE Project Room in Brooklyn, NY. Although it had been 8 years since their last performance as a duo, the show turned out to be very powerful, each performer complementing the other in ways neither had anticipated. They were so excited about the results of this almost chance encounter that they decided to make the recording available to the world.<br />This album is dedicated to the memory of Suzanne Fiol (1960-2009), founder of Issue Project Room.<br /><br /><b>Liner Notes by Tom Hamilton</b><br /><br />I go to a lot of concerts. I actually try to go to fewer concerts, but it never lasts for very long. I have lots of friends playing electronic music, because I've also been doing it myself for 40 years. Seeing friends and hearing electronic music seem to go together, but that's just me. So that's what happened on May 5, 2009, when I schlepped out to Brooklyn to hear Karlheinz and Matt at Issue Project Room.<br />Sometimes the experience of listening to electronic music is masked to a degree by the "electronic-ness" of it all; the suspicion that we're now being asked to suspend our musical instincts to allow for the intricacies of the media. So we forget for just a little bit that we really do like a big dose of plain old musicianship. What a relief when we finally get it.<br />Like in all good concerts, what I did not count on was what I actually heard. And like in all good concerts, it felt like a wholly new experience in the art form itself. And now I listen to the CD and I'm reminded again how valuable and desirable we find contrast, drama and excitement - qualities that we wish for in any other music. I listen again as if it were jazz. Surprise!<br />OK, I can't help it. I will digress to one technical point: An obstacle that faces every performer of our electronic ilk is that electronic and acoustic instruments do not project their sound quality in the same way. Our ears hear the subtlest changes radiating from a clarinet in almost any space. Not so with the electronic sources in that same room. Loudspeakers are usually the culprits - they just don't deliver the punch the way the clarinet does, and microphones just seem to play dumb when they hear anything from a speaker. But in the present recording, I can hear tremendous contrast in dynamic range and a great deal of detail in the sound. This is not because the loudspeakers or microphones were something exotic (they weren't, sorry). Karlheinz and Matt have made their original computer-based instruments with a great deal of attention to those important sonic qualities and how that bears on the resulting music. High resolution plus large dynamic range plus expressive controls equal a terrific sound. And a little recording common sense never hurts. We're reminded of the room, reminded that it was a live event, but never limited by it.<br />The key to this isn't that it's electronic, computerized, sampled, or really tied to any particular technology, though ironically each of these artists are well-known for having innovated new techniques that help bring the resulting music across. The importance of their work lies in their abilities to improvise with endless shadings ranging between simplicity and complexity, and to channel the overriding musicality to fuel the performance.<br />And like a really good wine that we're experiencing for the first time, we just know that it's a good drink. Words don't fail us; we just don't need them any more.<br /><br />Tom Hamilton<br />New York, October 2009<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/0101_essl.ostrowski-duo1.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/0202_essl.ostrowski-duo2.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/0303_karlheinzessl-nonsequitur-kalimba.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/0404_essl.ostrowski-duo3.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk/0505_essl.ostrowski-duo4.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs68KarlheinzEsslMatthewOstrowski-Flechtwerk at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-23660247648980234362009-09-27T18:22:00.003+01:002009-09-27T20:55:07.983+01:00[xs-67] zuramone - the spiders dance<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP7elfSQRlrEU8Dydj4FfvlXmKG_wAXH-4kzFBSurHm5FuzV812IsYLM-radzzMZnucsMvucM2MfU2ZX3n7etF2tGFTV5LT03-tE5dLSRi7S9t9yHHA5J-_V3dtCwPK3lQAmqMWojnVYk/s1600-h/xs-67.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP7elfSQRlrEU8Dydj4FfvlXmKG_wAXH-4kzFBSurHm5FuzV812IsYLM-radzzMZnucsMvucM2MfU2ZX3n7etF2tGFTV5LT03-tE5dLSRi7S9t9yHHA5J-_V3dtCwPK3lQAmqMWojnVYk/s400/xs-67.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386200787323181858" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: zuramone</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: the spiders dance</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 27/09/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/zuramone"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/xs-67_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> and </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/xs-67_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div>Nowadays many rock musicians are used to have side projects, where they include electronics. That's not something particulary new. We were already used to see phenomena like this in the 70s and the 80s, and it was exactly what happened with alex (aka zuramone), the drums player from the evora's (south-west of portugal in the south-west of europe) band "lotus mecanica". He was also drummer in the les baton rouge band and he is involved in another band with musicians from les baton rouge, great lesbian show and ideas for muscles.<br /><br />When Alex sent me that music, I said to him that I was interested to hear, to see how it was like.. and so I did.. after sometime listening to it, I said to him that I was unhappy with the sound quality in terms of recording and mixing, which was something that could only get better, if it was properly recorded and mixed. But I also said that I could give it a better sounding by giving a more solid sound to the recording. And so I did. I mastered and the music was sounding a bit better (in the terms of my limitations and capabilities), and I decided to release it.<br /><br />Musically we can say that Alex's band (zuramone), is actually some sort of rockabilly stuff, and although this is not particulary very close to rockabilly, it ended by being like some sort of hybrid between some drum n bass (sometimes close to photek when the acoustic drums appears), and something close to trance music, reminding me some aproaches in shpongle. In short, hardware electronic instruments, like drum machines, synths and so on, then a couple of guitars, and some drums.. and that's all.<br /><br />Hope you enjoy it as much as I did<br /><br />Tiago Morgado<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/01GreenIsNotOurEnemie.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/02TheDanceOfReactor4.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/03TheSpidersLastMoment.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance/04TheSpidersLastMomentIi...HerLastBreath.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs67Zuramone-TheSpidersDance at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-36550603560945917402009-09-05T14:12:00.005+01:002009-09-05T21:15:52.711+01:00[xs-66] BpOlar - subversive vespers<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuE72CWv4LHukJtybbjh6weHBiJxjqrnNVpXtSe1jMSESX9DXdwnS3_fDjyMxUrJY5_p8_lzV_WQn2IYb9OMj9VWXoXqKnpBqPSMzvuIqtz-okH199oMnIymzR8ahVK40EQq9IWOqILek/s1600-h/xs-66.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuE72CWv4LHukJtybbjh6weHBiJxjqrnNVpXtSe1jMSESX9DXdwnS3_fDjyMxUrJY5_p8_lzV_WQn2IYb9OMj9VWXoXqKnpBqPSMzvuIqtz-okH199oMnIymzR8ahVK40EQq9IWOqILek/s400/xs-66.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377970728819203906" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: BpOlar</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: subversive vespers</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 05/09/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/deecolorandsound"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/xs66_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> and </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/xs66_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">videoclip: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/Krow_HD.m4v"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">krow</span></a></div><div><br /></div><div>BpOlar is son of a jazz musician and as such he was raised from a very young age listening to the jazz masters, and although is approach diverted from this it is part of his background and as such is part of his aproach to the berlin electronic music scene. BpOlar is also a multidisciplinary artist, creating digital drawings and paintings and 3D video clips to document his music and for live usage, or the opposite (makes music to illustrate video). One of these works is presented together with this release.<br /><br />BpOlar music is strongly focused on creating textures, with a close relation with ambient music. This textures are nonetheless rough and arid, and lead us to alien environments where beats, noises and voices all create suspense moments, where you feel alert all the way through. This release is composed of four tracks and a bonus movie, that complements this particular vision.<br /><br />If you pay attention to BpOlar work you'll find, in his drawings/paintings, movies and music, traces of this imaginary world, where the central element is the feeling of unsettlement.<br /></div><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/01BurnedStatement.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/02PetrolSong.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/03EncodingAirport.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers/04CortexDelta.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs66Bpolar-SubversiveVespers at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-11624848558432628582009-08-25T19:27:00.008+01:002009-08-27T14:18:59.442+01:00[xs-65] DNP X-Citer - algorrithmic chaos<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA9HAfFNgPB1sPq2Ao7V1FpswIXCWaXKRg-bHWEMQOyIjYlMFSsbwziORvp9fbX6XNYi41bzLUr72mUXTHCxoZKvx7Q5tG74OUMKQbXei8Vlfpu-DtLPb0Y3LlYd1FPEZ0VPWPXR8JEU4/s1600-h/xs-65.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA9HAfFNgPB1sPq2Ao7V1FpswIXCWaXKRg-bHWEMQOyIjYlMFSsbwziORvp9fbX6XNYi41bzLUr72mUXTHCxoZKvx7Q5tG74OUMKQbXei8Vlfpu-DtLPb0Y3LlYd1FPEZ0VPWPXR8JEU4/s400/xs-65.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373971106080154802" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: DNP X-Citer<br />album: algorrithmic chaos<br /><br /></span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br />release date: 25/08/2009<br /></span><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br />contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/dnpxciter"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a><br /><br /><br />When Tiago Morgado idealized Algorrithmic Chaos for his DNP X-Citer alter ego he thought of a way to break, in a certain way, with the IDM tradition, following some of the guidelines defined by Scanner the german musician (in the sense of not confining IDM to reductionist formulas). The background for this DNP X-Citer ep is Tiago's influences and reverence to artists such as Aphex Twin, Autechre (warp records), Alva Noto, Ryochi Ikeda and Byetone (raster noton) but also Nine Inch Nails and his approach to industrial rock that Einsturzende Neubauten, Throbbing Gristle and etc... brought to music. All this influences can be identified in the electronic part of the DNP X-Citer ep which serves as the basis for an improvised "free/structured" with alto viola. Again in this improvisation several references can be found, such as, Ornette Coleman, Sun Ra, Pharaoh Sunders, Frank Zappa, John Zorn, Otomo Yoshihide, Fred Frith, Evan Parker, among others. <br /><br />The electronic part of the ep was worked with the use of algorithmic composition techniques, where instruments in the DAW (digital audio workstation/sequenciador) were triggered by MIDI, according to simple theoretical and systematized assumptions from the AC Toolbox (designed by Paul Berg from the Institute of sonology - the hague - netherlands). tiago morgado as been working with these tool because he believes that it can be helpful in his work with algorithmic composition (please do not forget that the MIDI and OSC material genarated with ac toolbox can be used to play live; eg: histo+anal+MIDI/OSC source reading and generative/reactive control of parameters). <br /><br />Algorrithmic Chaos is a technical work, without an a priori conceptual background, but when Tiago Morgado analyzed it a posteriori an organized chaos appeared. And based on that, using contemplation maybe you the listener can identify a theme for this ep.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp/01AlgorrithmicChaos1_vbr.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp/02AlgorrithmicChaos2_vbr.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp/03AlgorrithmicChaos3_vbr.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs65DnpX-citer-AlgorrithmicChaosEp at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-29731385347537307972009-08-16T21:52:00.009+01:002009-08-16T22:26:02.736+01:00[xs-64] ziur - granular world<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYLhTYQom5El7-eCRiqY-oXqw4I_DhuR-_YPnn-gO4jvJxexBATt6J0L7K5AboNHYmUWxehhCTrFd4B7pVRyX1FzGcrS9OYcqqguS3wAcH70YXA8D3wejT5MiWXvNJF-pO0GEh_a2X33U/s1600-h/xs-64.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYLhTYQom5El7-eCRiqY-oXqw4I_DhuR-_YPnn-gO4jvJxexBATt6J0L7K5AboNHYmUWxehhCTrFd4B7pVRyX1FzGcrS9OYcqqguS3wAcH70YXA8D3wejT5MiWXvNJF-pO0GEh_a2X33U/s400/xs-64.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5370669933387859122" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: ziur</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: granular world</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 16/08/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/ziurr"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/xs-64_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back </span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">and </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/xs-64_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div>In the year that we celebrate 40 years upon the arrival of men at the moon, and so many scientific discoveries, and so many lab discoverers and adventurers I present you a composer – Ziur. His passion for the discovery and study of the unknown leads us to the essence of sound, of its granular essence, presenting us another meaning, invisible to the naked ear. And like a stone is a stone on earth or on the moon, sound will always be sound whether savage or trained by Ziur.<br /><br />Leonardo Rosado (xs records curator)<br /><br />André Ruiz is a composer and professor at the Braga’s Conservatório Calouste Gulbenkian and he is also known in the electronic music as Ziur. He released is work concrétement at xs records [pt netlabel] in which he explored the digital media and the paradigm of composition initiated by Pièrre Schaeffer or Pièrre Henry. Ziur as been working in a series of initiatives and collaborative projects using the icompositions platform. Granular World he presents us with a series of experiments that take us to the granular synthesis domain, using the ixiquarks software developed by Italian softwarehouse ixisoftware developed with supercollider (this software is freeware and opensource).

All compositions were made in real time, i.e., all transformation processes and progressive developments were done and recorded in real time, which excludes it’s exact remake. Starting from simple recorded sounds (crystal glasses, tam tam’s, piano chords, etc.) it was possible to create diversified and individual compositions, which can suggest the listener several environments.<br /><br />André Ruiz (composer)<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/01GranularI.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/02GranularIi.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/03HarmonicChain.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/04InToTheLight.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/05GranularIii.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/06PercussiveLive.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs64Ziur-GranularWorld/07Sonar.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs64Ziur-GranularWorld at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-72729317338831534842009-08-03T12:52:00.006+01:002009-08-03T13:25:19.832+01:00[xs-63] subterminal - filled with light<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju6iDsjZKV3zMMWrACPpCvGLXnR-VQOU1Tig1KQtSWTKLJU6hc6aureBv3eGWN-xPv13rFNJh8rQouTheC2diiSbeM-0rhLJ9OI481jmeMskUNfrTs1JNP7R0z4BIBN3stIsOTn8xzaXk/s1600-h/xs-63.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEju6iDsjZKV3zMMWrACPpCvGLXnR-VQOU1Tig1KQtSWTKLJU6hc6aureBv3eGWN-xPv13rFNJh8rQouTheC2diiSbeM-0rhLJ9OI481jmeMskUNfrTs1JNP7R0z4BIBN3stIsOTn8xzaXk/s400/xs-63.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365704567160472658" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: subterminal</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: filled with light</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 03/08/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://sbtrmnl.blogspot.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">blog</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> & </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/sbtrmnl"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/FilledWithLight_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> & </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/FilledWithLight_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div>With eyes wide open.<br />Like in a reawakening. A strange awake that repeats itself every night; every passing day, or so it seems. Like a virtual experience; or maybe not. Maybe it is just a normal but scary awakening. ... "Filled With Light".<br /><br />"Filled With Light" awakens us in two different ways. The first, because it is only an EP which is part of an album yet to be released; the second, because in that album, poetry, a core element always present in Subterminal's work, makes an eulogy to digital life. "Filled With Light" is like a trailer of a full movie that we anticipate; a summary with a beginning middle and end. For now, the awakening is what matters most and "Filled With Light" awakes; awakes us.<br /><br />In that slow awake, "With You" introduces us to the theme, to the electronic principle that conducts the EP. However, "Filled With Light" is the track that captures our attention; because of the movement; the layers of sound; the excellent alto viola played by Tiago Morgado. There is a slight techno-industrial mood coloring Leonardo Rosado's words, the man behind Subterminal. At last, "For the First Time" definitely introduces us to what's coming. A confrontation with a different reality; or, an almost-reality. "For the First Time" introduces us to a confrontation between poetry and technology, created by dense sound ambiences, images, differing in rhythm and form. They are different lines of the same life; parallel or perpendicular. The exhaustion of conflict.<br /><br />"Filled With Light" was composed and played almost entirely with an iPhone, with some extra sounds from other objects. After "Alumina" and "Insight", released in 2009, the reawakening of Subterminal is of happiness. "Filled With Light" is a great step forward when comparing with prior releases, which leads to the expectation of a very interesting conceptual album. Coupled with the refinement of his personal electronic universe, the author added a better voice treatment. The production of the EP was made by Tiago Morgado.<br /><br />... to keep the eyes wide open.<br /><br />Press Review by Rui Dinis, A Trompa<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars='config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/01WithYou.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/02FilledWithLight.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight/03ForTheFirstTime.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs63Subterminal-FilledWithLight at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}'> </embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-27753453631537572192009-07-18T16:38:00.007+01:002009-07-18T23:14:00.867+01:00[xs-62] hola one & elka brown - visitors<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUlI874AMd_ThcjejLHH2GLAXMde56uOLFauYRQYARNrHMqYeNm-MJHbYAtyy0iyuS8vviKF1J_kyaRJhlhnk-NACVend0jRoCFwc8giXTosL59hNiyStjAY5X2LtWyQPbHzl4AM3d_A4/s1600-h/xs-62.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUlI874AMd_ThcjejLHH2GLAXMde56uOLFauYRQYARNrHMqYeNm-MJHbYAtyy0iyuS8vviKF1J_kyaRJhlhnk-NACVend0jRoCFwc8giXTosL59hNiyStjAY5X2LtWyQPbHzl4AM3d_A4/s400/xs-62.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359923741813454802" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: hola one & elka brown</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: visitors</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs62HolaOneFeat.ElkaBrown-VisitorsEp/xs62HolaOneFeat.ElkaBrown-VisitorsEp_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 18/07/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs62HolaOneFeat.ElkaBrown-VisitorsEp"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/holaone"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">hola one @ myspace</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> & </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/elkabrown"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">elka brown @ myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs62HolaOneFeat.ElkaBrown-VisitorsEp/xs-62_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> & </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs62HolaOneFeat.ElkaBrown-VisitorsEp/xs-62_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div>In this new release by XS Records, Marek is back, this time together with elka brown, who has colaborated in this album with a remix of a song and some more colaborations. Personally, the main difference I see between this and the last album, is basically the production (in terms of mixing and mastering) which is signifcantly better in relation to last one.. also there has started to appear some drum machine components, which give a more rithmic character to visitors that hygh. Marek is a resident at Vombat Radio, where his tracks are featured in the electric city radio show, and which has allowed us to be partners of that radio.

Trying to understand this operating, the scientist behaves as an engineer would do in front of a machine; this is, firstly he would study and identify the components and then he would try to quarrel how do they work and how do these relations establish between them as a whole. In these relations, the structural and functional unit corresponds to the neuronal synapses. This way so, this interaction among neuronal components is the base of our cognition.<br /><br />There exist cerebral diseases that are tied to an abnormal functioning of some neuronal synapses. Certain pathologies, as the cerebral arteriosclerosis, more known as Alzheimer, have been unjustly introduced in our society. This disease is caused principally by destruction of neurons of a cerebral region named the basal nucleus of Meynert, which establishes cholinergic synapses with the cerebral cortex. Our life turns then into a carrousel of false images, dismembered recollections, slanted impressions, constant dreams... This sonic synapses is dedicated to all whom have to fight against themselves.<br /><br />MYSTIC NITS<br /><br />In full technological modernity surprise me to see even the manual method to remove with patience the nits from the hair of children. Sometimes my subconscious leads me along grotesque paths and makes me to do some bizarre associations. In this work I see a craftsman against this nits, but this time, the nits are not other than ideas that the worship of ancient myths. At the same time those are difficult to remove, they also put it not that easy. Modernity cannot remain in vain advancement of technologies and therefore this craftsman wants to eliminate all traces of old-fashioned prejudices, fears, religious ties, double and triple standards.<br /><br />HYDRA<br /><br />Aubrey de Grey, engineer specialized on data analysis, argues that genetic senescence (molecular degeneration) is a parameter that, according to the latest research, could be corrected. He claims that we have a 50% chance of achieving the goal of living until 1000 years in 25 to 30 years of appropriate research. In this case, the genetic information of cells that go growing old and deteriorating would be corrected. Based on this conjecture my attention focused on simple hydridae such as Hydra, which do not have this congenial defect. The Hydra is a fresh-water animal, usually a few millimeters long and very interesting for the scientific community because it has this regenerative ability. They appear to be unique in the animal world because of not suffering from senescence. Based on this ability to self reparation, the work is divided into 3 sections. Each of them have a similar behavior, as the used samples develop micro evolutions on themselves, becoming degenerate and transforming to similar materials.<br /><br />carlos perales<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs61CarlosPerales-Acousmotion/01Synapse.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs61CarlosPerales-Acousmotion/02MysticNits.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs61CarlosPerales-Acousmotion/03Hydra.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs61CarlosPerales-Acousmotion at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-67620497291985466292009-06-20T14:07:00.003+01:002009-06-20T14:14:45.893+01:00[xs-60] poros - labass<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhbQePd2ZiCsVTGB9C462dyc5hAoy8ICunpqw8ofhKGjiYqChFvQQZDCZp4nwA89BEJHLJ9d_hart3jNYlN0vJZToNIKLbmK7drJxR4nSU7eFWx6cAW4NjBTD2a1e7si5pmaasfu9FmHM/s1600-h/xs-60.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhbQePd2ZiCsVTGB9C462dyc5hAoy8ICunpqw8ofhKGjiYqChFvQQZDCZp4nwA89BEJHLJ9d_hart3jNYlN0vJZToNIKLbmK7drJxR4nSU7eFWx6cAW4NjBTD2a1e7si5pmaasfu9FmHM/s400/xs-60.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349396018521648226" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: poros</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: labass</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/xs-60Poros-Labass_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 20/06/2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs-60Poros-Labass"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/tantosporos"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">cover art: </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/xs-60_bc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">back</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"> & </span><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/xs-60_fc.jpg"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">front</span></a></div><div><br /></div>Poros is a solo project of Paulo Vicente born in Lisbon (Portugal). Playing bass since 1987. He is also the author of the current xs records [pt netlabel] release, in which ((he presents himself as a one man band show) || (solo)) some sort of symbiosis occur between rock and electronic music, ambient, trip hop and downtempo.<br /><br />Having such a passion for bass Poros bass leads the way to his admirable world of senses. Every note is played respectfully every chord has a smell, every beat a taste. You can sense different worlds in harmony. And all the other sounds increase this sense of perfume, of exotic nights, of longing for something. Carefully noises and sounds are placed in such a way that brings us closer and closer to desire.<br /><br />This is we think what Paulo wants to show the world. If the word romantic wouldn't have such a bad implication nowadays we would say that Paulo is one of the ultimate romantics of this world. And this is also what we enjoy in the music we present you, passion and reverence for this language of feelings. Hope you guys enjoy this fine release as much as we enjoyed.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/01Veludo.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/02Anil.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/03Poros.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/04VerOSer.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/05Mutuo.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-60Poros-Labass/06Cheiro.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs-60Poros-Labass at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-23045965056707695622009-06-06T18:30:00.008+01:002009-06-07T21:55:02.430+01:00[xs-59] essl.burger - live!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjlb4wo8icrm93E69a-GLK7ha2BAUzyXTcgRDAI8xjEiNCcNEaF78aCJ-7bzlfTiqArXLQpV5OCrFgfOgnuiiADsZ6ZeGlZecWASXLR2tKsszInSYUPsX7KgQdO2pgAjqcEG5RFKPhPr8/s1600-h/xs-59.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjlb4wo8icrm93E69a-GLK7ha2BAUzyXTcgRDAI8xjEiNCcNEaF78aCJ-7bzlfTiqArXLQpV5OCrFgfOgnuiiADsZ6ZeGlZecWASXLR2tKsszInSYUPsX7KgQdO2pgAjqcEG5RFKPhPr8/s400/xs-59.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344270119604948722" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: essl.burger</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: live!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-59Essl.burger.Live/xs-59Essl.burger.Live_vbr_mp3.zip">download</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 07/06/09</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs-59Essl.burger.Live">more details and stream</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: Karlheinz Essl <a href="http://www.myspace.com/karlheinzessl">myspace</a> <a href="http://www.essl.at/">homepage</a> & <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/khz96">youtube</a> - Klaus Burger <a href="http://www.myspace.com/klausburger">myspace</a> & <a href="http://www.klaus-burger.com/">homepage</a></span></div><div><br /></div><div>As a netlabel, we've always been worried about bringing music with an ascending quality to people, although some our releases seem a bit controversial, since we try to get as much diversity as possible.<br /><br />This month, we can say that we are extremely proud to release Karlheinz Essl's and Klaus Burger's duo ESSL.BURGER.

It is part of our existential condition, it is a way of transcending beauty, through love and friendship and all that is around it - Life. Music is beyond religion or judgment, no matter if you are atheist, Agnostic, Christian, Buddhist, or Hindu, open minded or anything else. It is a way to practice Asceticism, no matter if you believe or not in the relationship between macro and micro-structures. It is a way of making a statement about and for the world and ourselves.<br /><br />In my life I have learned some things, of which the main and most recent discoveries, is that we all make part of the very same thing, and we are all connected. So if Music is a relevant dimension of our existence, we make Music with and for other people. Even if we think that we can make it without other people, something extremely personal, something like a daily-route escape, the seeds of our existence are embedded in it, our dreams, our fears.<br /><br />In the past year XS Records [pt netlabel] started a gigantic task - creating a circuit for people to share Music, in their own personal way, such that each ones personal vision is not captive to each ones studio, but free for other people to listen to it. And in that way share everything we make and our beliefs, with respect for the differences among all of the people that are inside this boat, this train, this airplane, on this thing that is our Life. The blind man is welcome, the virtuoso is welcome, the average men and women are welcome. Everyone one is Welcome, to share the same embrace that is MUSIC.<br /><br />And this is not only done by welcoming everyone, but also by breaking all boundaries bringing as much diversity as possible in the name of an ascending quality, and in that sense since the Music in this two sided-release is really good, then consequently a lot of really good people are here represented. And I can say I am proud to share this with these guys, so I will let you discover each one personally.<br /><br />I've done my best compiling this, and hope you all listen to this Music and have a lot of pleasure listening to it. If you enjoy this compilation then, I can say: I was successful doing it.<br /><br />Part One<br /><br />01 - João Clemente - Chamber of Dismemberment by Chariot<br />02 – Aaldo - Mantra<br />03 - Minson - Contagious passion<br />04 - Ziur - The mind of a budist monk<br />05 - Claudio Moreira - AQUATICA Artificialis & Naturalis<br />06 - The Astroboy<br />07 - Isaac de la Concha - Caminos y valles<br />08 - Subterminal - Still<br />09 - Light Implant - Barack Obama<br />10 - Topi Reta - Cuando los Payasos invadieron la Tierra<br />11 - Hyaena Reich - Zlknf - telegramme de brest cover wampa<br />12 - Luis Salgado - Pict<br />13 - Miguel Urbano - Doepfer1<br />14 - Most People Have Been Trained To Be Bored - Spontaneity less hampered<br />15 - ocp - Untitled Tower<br /><br />Part Two<br /><br />01 – Necrostilet – Amor de cabeça perdida (feat.

behind lost reality, khhh, and morten - pa gyngende grund. Marek has started his music activity in the hip hop underground scene in the late 90's and has been working in electronic music since 2000, although only in 2007 he sucedeed implementing something that he thought had interest for himself, in an aesthetic way. This was a basis for going throughout some existencial states, that condicioned his way of seeing life in limit situations. Lost Reality has been the result of it, and hola one works as an extension for this kind of sound. Here we have an interwine between experimental, ambient, minimal, micropoliphonic stuff, somewhere in the line of people such as brian eno, alva noto (in terms of textures), beatriz ferreyra, pauline oliveros and so on. Marek is a resident at Vombat Radio, where his tracks are featured in the electric city radio show.<br /></div><br /><embed w3c="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/01.HolaOne-AngelsOfTommorowFt.xiiiSign.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/02.HolaOne-Hygh.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/03.HolaOne-Kiko.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/04.BurekPoTorbieRemixvideo-AgnieszkaWoniak.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/05.HolaOne-Puxx.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs57HolaOne-High/06.HolaOne-Digi-dongaFt.libeltkamilq.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs57HolaOne-High at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="24" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" allowfullscreen="true" width="400"></embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-42953569352343049222009-03-30T00:07:00.004+01:002009-04-09T11:43:27.323+01:00[xs-56] egotron - egotron<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0d-THdLsQxcy_pcJUsqnVw0lkGfeUSAWVS9L_lwHvvV4S3Ua97yNa3gE9HmUMuaZOnCjSwDwcSbJ74z-aFqhHiCqxHDy-r1SUUtqT2pZivQGcuXeQY52xjXWYDpOSvnL6ag_Lp4chjl0/s1600-h/xs-56.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0d-THdLsQxcy_pcJUsqnVw0lkGfeUSAWVS9L_lwHvvV4S3Ua97yNa3gE9HmUMuaZOnCjSwDwcSbJ74z-aFqhHiCqxHDy-r1SUUtqT2pZivQGcuXeQY52xjXWYDpOSvnL6ag_Lp4chjl0/s400/xs-56.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318751452706532322" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">artist: egotron</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">album: egotron</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-56EgoTron/xs-56EgoTron_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">release date: 29.03.2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs-56EgoTron"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/egotronmf"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><br /></div> Katarina Magalhães is egotron and vice versa.

The symbiosis between music and fashion design is a key element to egotron, and although the world will lose someone with a potential for music maybe someday we can see her in the catwalk.<o:p></o:p><p></p> <!--EndFragment--><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars='config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-56EgoTron/EgoTron-Egotout.m4a","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-56EgoTron/EgoTron-ElfClock.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-56EgoTron/EgoTron-Forest.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-56EgoTron/EgoTron-Keys.m4a","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs-56EgoTron at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}'> </embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-27410587989573578932009-03-29T23:57:00.005+01:002009-04-09T12:04:09.947+01:00[xs-55] lotus mecanica - the live sessions and jack d<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6vr3_N9wSUGDsk64_0BBg65nhEmYGEgip6u9iB_7evcqJl6gO6HIQYO6NDgK7DB1a3PW2L6hjV9teXL6IZ0W5R8AI8jpJ7BDCRaD1lFpGlwRB7WcoHYTNrLrd7zBck8i3PMHlsmy3f3U/s1600-h/xs-55.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6vr3_N9wSUGDsk64_0BBg65nhEmYGEgip6u9iB_7evcqJl6gO6HIQYO6NDgK7DB1a3PW2L6hjV9teXL6IZ0W5R8AI8jpJ7BDCRaD1lFpGlwRB7WcoHYTNrLrd7zBck8i3PMHlsmy3f3U/s400/xs-55.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5318750094555069442" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: lotus mecanica</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: the live sessions and jack d</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date: 29.03.2009</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: </span><a href="http://www.myspace.com/lotusmecanica"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">myspace</span></a></div><div><br /></div><div><!--StartFragment--> In the last years in Portugal there has been recurring manifestations of the rockabilly movement, most of them centered on Coimbra. Bands, such as The Legendary Tiger Man, Wraygunn, and later, Nicotine Caffe Orchestra have come to the forefront of the underground Portuguese scene and extrapolating (at least the first two bands mentioned) to the mainstream. Choosing to publish a rockabilly band with a creative commons license is part of the xs premises of breaking all barriers in avoiding the choice to publish specific types of music, such as, electronic projects. Having said this, we present you Lotus Mecanica, a band that we believe has what it takes to be a rockabilly band. This is a live recording act, in which we can listen to Lotus Mecanica style, a kind of rockabilly blues dirty punk. Also to note, is the fact that we are discussing the idea of distributing a limited edition in digipack or cdr of this ep, so if you’re interested, just let us know.<o:p></o:p><p></p> <!--EndFragment--> </div><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="24" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.commercial-3.0.5.swf" w3c="true" flashvars='config={"key":"#$b6eb72a0f2f1e29f3d4","playlist":[{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon/BecomeAComicHero.mp3","autoPlay":false},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon/GreenHounds.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon/PurpleBirds.mp3","autoPlay":true},{"url":"http://www.archive.org/download/xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon/RoadSafariBlues.mp3","autoPlay":true}],"clip":{"autoPlay":true},"canvas":{"backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"none"},"plugins":{"audio":{"url":"http://www.archive.org/flow/flowplayer.audio-3.0.3-dev.swf"},"controls":{"playlist":true,"fullscreen":false,"gloss":"high","backgroundColor":"0x000000","backgroundGradient":"medium","sliderColor":"0x777777","progressColor":"0x777777","timeColor":"0xeeeeee","durationColor":"0x01DAFF","buttonColor":"0x333333","buttonOverColor":"0x505050"}},"contextMenu":[{"Item xs-55LotusMecanicaTheLiveSessionsAndJackD-ComingSoon at archive.org":"function()"},"-","Flowplayer 3.0.5"]}'> </embed>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3245263697596073373.post-3218830228745448902009-03-24T23:35:00.001+00:002009-03-30T22:55:36.556+01:00[xs-54] emanuel casimiro - a revolta das plaquetas<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj146qqvxbV8jC1YF19SJSE2v4apBs_s2p6_vJICIAO_JGsrmdPgcqRnWb5d66g6rlLqhBu4ZGhUFMnoY3oaK1Yilys5DLZ3MfCaVBr14NufiscDpymJOoxbga4h2H-Xm3Va5doVYqmZJ0/s1600-h/xs-54.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 224px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj146qqvxbV8jC1YF19SJSE2v4apBs_s2p6_vJICIAO_JGsrmdPgcqRnWb5d66g6rlLqhBu4ZGhUFMnoY3oaK1Yilys5DLZ3MfCaVBr14NufiscDpymJOoxbga4h2H-Xm3Va5doVYqmZJ0/s400/xs-54.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316903323437423490" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">artist: emanuel casimiro</span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">album: a revolta das plaquetas</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/download/xs54EmanuelCasimiro-ADerrotaDasPlaquetas/xs54EmanuelCasimiro-ADerrotaDasPlaquetas_vbr_mp3.zip"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">download</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">release date:</span></div><div><a href="http://www.archive.org/details/xs54EmanuelCasimiro-ADerrotaDasPlaquetas"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">more details and stream</span></a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">contact: <a href="www.myspace.com/emanuelcasimiro">myspace</a></span></div><div><br /></div><div>Emanuel Casimiro, conhecido como Rei do Power Pimba, genero este que engloba correntes musicais ao mesmo tempo tao diversificadas mas com tanto em comum como o Power Metal, o Punk e o Pimba, acaba de atacar na XS Records (pt netlabel) - depois de um projecto brazileiro que une o grindcore com o punk e a lowfi tronica -, e com um único objectivo.

The band is currently signed to Azucrina Records of Brazil.<br /><br />When asked about the origin of their name, Porquinho stated in an interview that he was a big fan of the arts, dance and some cultural raping stuff, so he think - Fuck it - This is my band i'll call it that way.<br /><br />The band was infamous for seeming to hate the experimental-lambada-metal-band-that-incorporates-elements-of-grindcore-scene back in the early 1990s however the band now seems to disassociate with such hatred. It has been ascertained that the origin of such "hate" was the fact that singer Leo Pyrata had been subjected to telephonic pranks by members of fellow brazilian metallers Falamansa, which he interpreted as "attacks" from members of the experimental-lambada-metal-band-that-incorporates-elements-of-grindcore-scene. They also stopped wearing corpse paint in the mid 1990s due to it being "too trendy".<br /><br />In 2003, guitarist Porquinho died falling - or jumping - off a bridge on the ice below.
