Bradley Telcom Ensemble - live at Tiny Park Gallery - 2013.1031

"Welcome to Str8 Sounds, I pity you."

Techno sea shanty on Moog Matriarch, Zoom ARQ AR-96 Aero Rhythm Trak through Eventide Space, Roland VT-3 Voice Transformer. Video recorded on iPad Pro with Zoom iQ7 mid-side stereo microphone.

Never mind my robots,
they mean you no harm.
They don't want you to come into Marm.
They don't want to cause any alarm.
They don't want to come into the Marm.

Marmalade project going to our heads.
Everyone gets upset in their beds.
Everyone wants my android key,
but that thing it belongs just to me.

I'm the one they're after.
I'm the crafter master.
I'm the one they're mad at.
I wear the black hat
in their minds, 
they were pre-programmed
by my enemies in an evil land.
They are moilly mighty in demand.

It's me they're after.
The master crafter.
They mean you no harm.
My robots will not alarm
you because they're coming after me,
you because I am their enemy,
you because they're coming after me,
you because I'm the master crafter, see.

Those robots mean you no harm
and the androids will not alarm
you because it's me they're after,
it's because I'm the master crafter.
But my enemy in an evil land
pre-programmed them to demand
my death, my demise -- 
poisoned against me with lies!

When you want a parcel post,
that's just a transferred ghost,
why do you want to particle it?
When you blow it all to bits,
torturing the hadrons
calling it quits.
They don't want to spin
for you anymore, 
they're really sick of it.
They're tired of you trying 
to really understand
what drives their command
from the eternity to infinity's end.

Do you that think you can accelerate
mesons, protons, and not debate?
Why are you doing it?
Why are those strangelets 
going to swarm to the depths 
of our earth, our globe?
You want a big bang explode.

In January 2014 Rick Owens showed his MOODY FW14 women's collection to the soundtrack of Jlin's "Erotic Heat". During that trip Jerrilynn Patton met up with Bryan Black, a musician who had soundtracked a previous Rick Owens runway show. They struck up a firm friendship and now, on the day of Rick Owens' new SS18 show, we thought what better time to let you hear Bryan's Black Asteroid remix of Jlin's track "Black Origami".

You can stream Rick Owens' SS18 men's show today (22nd June 2017) at 11:30am UK time, 12:30pm French time: http://streaming.rickowens.eu/

You get these albums sometimes, and it is like reaching into a black plastic garbage bag without looking. You might reach in and pull out a cute puppy, or a hundred dollar bill. Or you might pull out twelve rusty steak knives, blade first or a huge pile of that same puppy's steaming feces. Thankfully, with Magicicada's newest concoction, I have pulled out a strange but magical machine that seems to creak away on splintered sprocket wheels and projects the dreams of long dead artists onto a nearby wall. Everyone is Everyone is a dense and varied composition of sounds, some juxtaposed to mystify and others melded together seamlessly.
Atlanta mastermind and chief musician, Christopher White, seems to pull these random and disparate sounds from quite a variety of sources, both in the digital and analog world, both from here and now and from before (by way of tape samples and sampling conspirators, Destructo Swarmbots). White makes nine considerable pieces of music, almost filling the limits of a mere compact disc, but never resorts to filler pieces or empty space, unless it is called for in the compilation.
It is hard to imagine this music coming from Atlanta, and not the polar reaches of Scandinavia or the dirty streets of New York. It has so much in common with the works of the sound compositions of Basinski and Branca, as well as the dark rhythmic potentials of the Double Leopards, Mouthus, and Axolotl camp. The beauty in Magicicada's work is that isn't based simply of one or two of these models. It is both alive with change and polyrhythms like the No-Neck Blues Band and yet also content to hover ponderously like Stars of the Lid or Birchville Cat Motel. Look carefully and often for more releases from this amazing Atlantean (?), for I have a feeling he is going to make some big noises in the near future (in addition to this astounding and considerable piece of work).
