If you ask me what would I suggest you to go in Prague* to see (experience), my brain will be jammed with emptiness for a while and then I’ll whisper “Střešovická Kramle”. They are fierce, full of jummy beats and high over-drived guitar tones. The voice is dark, texts full of depression from long gone infancy.
No matter how it is good, the only problem is that you have to ideally know them for a while, that adds much more sense to it, and also, the most important part of the whole music is their real presence. I would say, their presence is half of the music.
“The Marriage of True Minds” the right pace in to the future of sound..
This album is a perfect marriage of mind. The rhythm calmness and simplicity beautified by wide palette of sounds evolving with each rhythm is to my brain just like the pizza I have been lately in Paris. Small, obvious pizza like so many pizzas all around so you would not expect nothing uncommon from such wide spread food. Though I’m not pizza fun the girls there make pizza tasting like a nectar out Oz land.
Same thing can be told about the Matmos last album.. obvious sounds, even noisy recordings but all in such matched harmony.. such a tasty thing, I would love to eat it!
It is hard to say anything about the KLaNGundKRaCH once I can type here only.
The core truth s that KLaNGundKRaCH is beating hard all the Prague and other spaces whee you can scream out of your gut without restraint until the sun pins its first rays through the window hole.
This guy is the real synth Jesux. Many people try to show of with their new syhths, but Jesux. He really shows how these boxes can shape the waves to what ever needs.
Sci-fi, horror movies or Beach boys, what they’ll be without Theremin?
Theremin is a first synthesizer ever, built by a Russian inventor Leon guess who… Theremin . Thou first synthesizer there is nothing of that kind since now. Almost 100 years pass and the Theremin is still unique rare instrument.
I’m a Theremin lover, just like many others bewitched by its simplicity that makes the instrument so hard to be played in the western scale, but impressively creative in many other ways. There are only few people in the world who are able to master Theremin. Luckily one of them lives nearby Prague, in Vienna. Pamelia Kurstin is one of the best Theremin player in the whole rounded world. She is able masters it in the orchestral heights and still open minded to play noise gigs of any sort. She is actually virtuous noizer :)
Thanks to many circumstances she’ll have a week long Theremin workshop where she will teach Theremin. Workshop is worthy for absolute beginners as well as absolute mad virtuosos who would like to be the best Theremin players of all.
