From the album "Sci-Fi Cues Vol. 1 / Vol. 2", the first of four excerpts (if the picture looks familiar, you may remember we played a chunk of Volume 1 last month) peppering our show with psychotronic quark, strangeness and charm, courtesy of the circuit bending maestro we love so much we named a character in the show after him. We should go the whole hog and have a Chris Holland on board too. Watch this space! We still don't know who Captain Anarchy is though and nobody's talking... https://illuminatedpaths.bandcamp.com/album/sci-fi-cues-vol-1-vol-2 o
First time on the show in nearly two years for this excellent Belgian electro-experimental project, really should have them on more often if this track is anything to go by. It's the absolute standout on the Camembert Électrique compilation, "Low Pressure Systems", also featuring on the artiste's own "Nomen Nescio" album. Randolf Smeets was kind enough to provide a less than five minutes radio edit, but we wanted much more, so we made our own lengthier version from the full 13 minute version. Who says you can't have your cake and eat it? We had ours with whipped cream on...

Emmanuele Gattuso - Scorpion Drowning In The River A second track from the nostalgically titled "Hisstape" album by this interesting Italian sound creator. There's a beautifully haunting quality to this track, it didn't catch my ear first time around, but when I went back for seconds, there it was, beckoning me to the rocky shoreline like a spectre on helium... https://emmanuelegattuso.bandcamp.com/album/hisstape o 04.

So Melophobia you'll know; this is the work of Dimitris Tsironis (aka Olympus Cosmos), the man behind Default Standard Records (note the sneaky plug in the radio script), who released the Magic Bullet album "Kollaboratis", plus collaborated with us on "Man + Machine 2 : Unification / Assimilation". This time he's working with Substak, aka Kostas Staikos, based in Athens, a brand new name to us, so we know nothing. Yet. This oddly titled track comes from the equally oddly titled "+θ/esis" album. We like odd... https://adventurousmusic.bandcamp.com/album/esis https://melophobia.bandcamp.com https://defaultstandard.bandcamp.com https://substak.bandcamp.com

07. Captain Anarchy & Dr. Igor Amokian - Sci Fi Cues Vol. 2 (Excerpt 3) o 08. Bedouin Drone + Brainquake - Night Move I think it was exactly a year ago we last had Brainquake on the show, a track from that excellent collaboration with Gross Gadgetto, "Dehumanize The World". Bedouin Drone, on the other hand, is as yet a complete unknown to us, save from also being based in Belgium. This co-production, an album called "Mood Starters", has some unusual flavours, being both atmospheric and creepy (not in a bad way), as well as having some interesting interpretations of flavours from the Arab world. Curious stuff indeed... https://mahorka.bandcamp.com/album/mood-starters https://bedouindrone.bandcamp.com https://brainquake.bandcamp.com
09. Univers III - Octogone A second appearance on the show for French musician Michel Villar's electronic project, this time selecting the dark and moody tonal soundscape the album takes its name from. What more can one say? An ear either side of your head and you'll get this for yourself. To be listened to via headphones in your garden at midnight... https://universiii.bandcamp.com/album/octogone o 10. Captain Anarchy & Dr. Igor Amokian - Sci Fi Cues Vol. 2 (Excerpt 4) o
This is the work of one Joshua Rogers, the man behind the Illuminated Paths label, and very obviously a mate of our Dr. Igor Amokian (other side of the U.S.A. mind), thus immediately promoted to our good books. Can't tell you a thing about Joy Lane though, one of those mysteries, maybe it's Captain Anarchy, who knows!? Either way, it's become Weslee Crumble's favourite bedtime story, though we had to do a little bit of censorship for U.S. radio, subtly masking a few profanities, the odd 'piss', 'shit' and f-word. But when it come to the UK broadcast, absolutely no changes necessary, we're totally fucking feral over here... https://illuminatedpaths.bandcamp.com/album/night-creatures o
12. Christine Plays Viola - Jackie's Curse And a smokin' piece of gothic punk to bring the show to a suitable climax, this month's 'live in Nine Backward' slot going to this classy and cool as fuck Italian darkwave band. Not their first time on the show, we had a track from their previous album on back in February. This one, however, comes from this year's model, "F.I.V.E. Fear Increases Violent Emotions". Had me and Jaxx pogoing round the living room and stage diving off the coffee table. There was some head bumping, but it was worth it... https://christineplaysviola.bandcamp.com/album/f-i-v-e-fear-increases-violent-emotions |
