SCHREIN:

Ruth-Maria Adam

Bastian Hagedorn

Ronnie Oliveras

Der Schrein gilt als Aufenthaltsort für göttliche Wesen, doch lauern halbnackt, frivol und krummbeinig die Kobolde Ruth-Maria Adam, Ronnie Oliveras und Bastian Hagedorn darin, um mit allerlei profanen Gegenständen gegen die verknöcherte Orthodoxie musikalisch-akademischer Avantgardetraditionen anzulärmen. Nichts ist ihnen heilig, und so blöken sie besoffen vom Messwein heilige Kühe an, stolpern über Klangschalen, zersingen den alteuropäischen Kanon und tragen auf diese Weise jedweden falschen Ernst improvisierter Musik zu Grabe. Aus dem Schrein kommt „Musik für alle“: hinterlistig-freundliche Klang-Experimente ohne höhere Weihen aus den niederen Regionen ihres kollektiven Bewusstseins. Schmutzig.

– Holger Adam

New Video for PHANTOM HORSE!

 Phantom Horse  released today their selftitled debut lp on Dekorder!

And i made a video for my buddies! Best viewed with some kush!

Phantom Horse is the duo of Ulf Schütte and Niklas Dommaschk from Hamburg and Kiel (home of seminal Digitalis Recordings artist Jürgen Müller). Schütte is a (part-time) member of Datashock, Black To Comm, Aosuke et al and has recently released his modular synth explorations under the Alien Radio moniker on a (sold-out) Dekorder split-LP with Keith Fullerton Whitman and a 4-way split 7″ with Köhn, Ducktails and Peaking Lights on Kraak. Dommaschk plays guitar, synth and electric piano.

With the aid of a drum machine and (acoustic & synth) percussion the duo creates polyrhythmic and refreshingly brief song-based compositions influenced by the tuneful melancholy of Moondog, Minimal Music of the 60’s and 70’s, a deep love for the early electronics of Cabaret Voltaire and (kind of inevitable) the whole Cluster/Harmonia axis of German experimentalism. The latter being a major reference point with their pioneering explorations of rhythm & melody within seemingly abstract textures.

Phantom Horse create a similarly exciting fusion of bleeping modular/analog synths and electric guitar with gorgeous melodies coming from arpeggiated electric piano riffs while the hypnotic background rhythms from both guitar and percussion are hinting towards Krautrock as well as African music (or its 2nd hand use on albums like Eno/Byrne’s Bush Of Ghosts respectively).

Help Kraak!

Our friends from KRAAK  received some bad news from the government over there. KRAAK as a concert promotor might stop to exist. Please find more info here.

some words from Ronnie in the name of Datashock, Phantom Limbo and Meudiademorte:

As a child I once visited Belgium together with my family, spending holidays at a Centerpark. I don’t remember details but I guess it was fun: holidays, swimming-pools, giant slide,…

That’s twenty years ago… I never knew anything else about Belgium: Centerparks and Marc Dutroux, of course.

10 years ago, when I started to play music together with a couple of friends (we all lived in a small german town called Saarlouis at that time), we were wondering about the fact, that so many bands we were interested in, did play in Belgium…: „What’s going on there?”, “Why is everyone playing in Belgium?” We found out later that the main reason simply was and is the dedication of a couple of guys, working under the name „KRAAK“.
Maybe you can`t understand their work, when you are not a part of it. And maybe you are not interested to invest in someone’s work if you don’t really get what they’re doing. But whoever might read these words: think of something you love, something you are burning for, something you are obsessed with… that’s why these guys worked for years. For me it always was a breathless try to push ideas, aesthetics, expressions and creativity besides mainstream culture and cost-benefit calculations. And besides all virtual self-expression and egocentric individualism in the so called World Wide Web, which is becoming more and more typical for our times, they always took care for reality. For so many artists KRAAK was and still is about finding some real places to perform in front of real people. And for lovers KRAAK’s providing possibilities to feel the music. It was and is about meeting each other, talk to each other, listening to music together and sharing experience. Well, I don’t need any facebook friends! I need a place where I can go to! I don’t need to know everyone personally who stands beside me, but it’s great to see and feel there is someone. The end of KRAAK would put all this to an end. I’d miss future friendships and I will lose a longtime friend in Belgium.
