Useful Music #047

First time vinyl issue of this 1997 Mego classic. General Magic, the duo of Ramon Bauer and Andi Pieper, who, alongside Pita, first pioneered the classic Mego sound on the Fridge Trax 12” in 1995. The following year proved to be formulative when Mego released Frantz alongside a slew of game changing releases from Farmers Manuel, Pita and Fennesz. 

Originally released as MEGO 010 Frantz presented a thrilling digression from what was in vogue in music at the time. This was the advent of portable computing and the Vienna based label was at the  forefront of harnessing the potential of audio within this new technology. 

At once smart and playful these releases reconfigured once disparate genres such as industrial, techno, glitch and the avant garde, folding them into a bright, audacious and euphoric new system of sound. The music on Frantz (named after the Austrian skier, Franz Klammer) still pushes the boundaries of acceptable audio constructions with it’s startling fried electricity and twisted sensibility. The sense of joy in the audio discovery is palatable as techno laced explorations unfold a variety of unexpected and unprecedented sonic manoeuvres. 

Tyrell launches proceedings as schizophrenic stuttering handclaps simultaneously slice into pieces as it propels forward. The bending of the brain is on display with the likes of ‘Obvious’ and ‘Close, But Not Quien’. Temko skewers digital debris in which a ghost melody comes to the fore. Brazen rhythms mobilize the tracks ‘No Ketting’ and ‘Bonden’ whilst the Official GM Ski-WM Theme is a short stab of priceless pop wizardry skittering about a strange exhilarating melody in homage to the finest of winter activities. 

This reissue also includes ‘Die Mondlandung’ which was released as a 12” in 1995 (MEGO 002), and has never been released anywhere, physical or digital, since. This track is based on the live German TV coverage of the moon landing. An apt theme for the abundance of exploration contained within this classic release.

RA Label of the month

Posh Isolation - RA Label of the month

We have been a fan of John Maus (@john-maus-official) for a long time, loved 'Love is Real' and listened to 'We Must Become The Pitiless Censors Of Ourselves' on @upset-the-rhythm on repeat,  so we are super excited for his new record out on @dominorecordco imprint @ribbonmusic and this mix that he has made especially for you.

Check the album here >>> http://link.bleep.com/John-Maus-Screen-Memories-LP

Armed with a keyboard loaded to the brim with melodies so catchy you will have to be admitted to quarantine to escape them, and more sing-along choruses than a karaoke machine on a Friday night, John Maus returns with his first new long player in six years - Screen Memories. A joyful return that further investigates the quasi-synth-pop and electrocuted soul that has made him a legend in our and many others' eyes and ears.

And yes, we Saw John Maus Live. 

(so should you)

Additional text:

This music will grow out of its own structure and grains. A castle of sand falling apart, slowly. Sometimes it's like a photograph of a hotel, not translating to the present. There is an expressiveness, but more as in helplessness. A soft and steady repetition of future beliefs. Does this make the music personal? Yes, everything happens under context. Like in society positive things need to be said over and over again. An endless desire.
