Shall we write a new editorial? Oh the endless demand and who needs a damn editorial? No time for editorials, let the actual music do the actual walking and the actual talking. Exact same thing again, another five (or so) slices of music that have passed our way recently and however you like to slice it and of course it was the price of oranges and here comes the editorial. Don’t be flippant she said, how could it ever be flippant? I can’t remember why she said that now, in one ear, out the other, we have a bad attitude here apparently, no respect for those who work in the music industry, well no poop Sherlock, have you only just worked that one out?
Five? There’s something rather compelling about five. Cross-pollination? Five more? Is there another way? A better way? A cure for pulling flying rabbits out of the clouds? Is there a rhyme? Is there a reason? Was there ever a reason? What do reasons make? Five more? Snake oil? Everything must go and no, we never do and the proof of the pudding is in that proof reading. When we started this thing, oh never mind, it doesn’t matter why we started this damn thing and like we asked last time, does anyone bother reading the editorial? Does anyone ever actually look down the rabbit hole or is it all just method acting? We do really try to listen to everything that comes in, we do it so you don’t have to, we are very (very) very very picky about what we actually post on these fractured pages or about what gets played on the radio or indeed what we hang in a gallery. Cut to the chase, never mind the editorial, skip this bit, there’s loads of music further down the page, well five or so pieces of music that have come our way in the last few days and what’s Wordsworth? Just the basic facts and links and those sounds (and visuals), that’s surely all you need from us?
Here we go, five more slices of music that have recently come our way, this time we start with something new from Austin, Texas and then something from Northanpton but not the place where they made shoes…
1: Snooper have themselves a new EP, you can hear a couple of the tracks, just over two and a half urgent minutes on their Bandcamp page right now. They do kind of go off and things in their very own uniquely kind of urgently urgent way. They are heading over to Europe again in May, including 22/5 – London, UK @ Shacklewell Arms, 23/5 – London, UK @ Wide Awake Festival, 24/5 – Bristol, UK @ Dot to Dot Festival, 25/5 – Nottingham, UK @ Dot to Dot Festival…
And here you go, this is what you can explect live, here’s some bootleg footage of Snõõper performing live at Rubber Gloves Rehearsal Studios, Denton, Texas, late Summer last year..
2: Bunnies have shared a second single, Eyer Of Ire, from their upcoming full-length LP Horror Spectrum, with a video directed by Delilah Moss, the video is out today, today was probably a few days ago now, we let these pages build up until there’s five musical things worth us launching on you. I wonder if Delilah knows Donna Moss? The White House was far better when Donna was there and Bunnies are from Northampton, that’s Northampton, Massachusetts, not where all the cobblers are. Here’s Delilah’s video and here’s the Bandcamp and some other links…
3: Igorrr – some new Igorrr music and Igorrr’s music video for ADHD made by Meat-Dept, yeah, AI we know, made with a bit more depth this time though..
From Meat-Dept : After “Very Noise”, we explored the possibilities of AI for this new Igorrr music video: “ADHD”. We embraced almost all existing tools, both proprietary and open source, diverting and mixing them with our 3D tools. This video is a symbolic journey into an experimental therapy for treating a patient with ADHD, brimming with nods to “Very Noise”. We know the use of AI in art might be polemic right now, plus we with Meat Dept actually started the clip in 3D, like we did for Very Noise, but at some point we were laughing so hard trying to do creepy things in AI that the clip ended as a mix of both technologies. The music, however, is 100% homemade.
From Gautier : Kind of an autobiographical piece of music. Starting from one point and moving to another, with no clear link except for the person itself. From simple thoughts, symbolized here as simple dots of sound in the silence, to a complex pathological chaos that somehow still stands. It’s getting worse and worse until the final giant lets go. Get the album and merch here or here’s the Bandcamp
4: Bruit ≤ have today, today being whatever day this is, released a cavernous new track from their forthcoming album, the release today, actually today is Monday April 7th, is accompanied a truly unique video recorded with a classical ensemble inside a construction site for a metro station. I guess we can call it epic post rock or soemthing like that, a twelve minute slice of masterbuilding and the third piece to be released from their forthcoming album The Age Of Ephemerality, due out on 25th of April via Pelagic.
You can hear more of the Bruit ≤ album on their Bandcamp page and well, here’s it is, we’ll get around to the review in a moment, there’s mountains of music waiting for attention and well…
5: Planning for Burial and a piece of music called A Flowing Field of Green, a track from the album It’s Closeness, It’s Easy, which we’re told will be available on May 30th on The Flenser.
