'Fragile Bodies'

This is track "close ab" from the tiles teils cassette. 
Released October 10 2024

The cassette was published as part of the same titled 6-channel sound installation that was presented earlier in 2023 at Museum Schloss Fellenberg Merzig.

It features the sound of broken and cut tiles from the Merzig based tile factory Villeroy & Boch Fliesen GmbH. The factory, wich was directly opposite the Museum, has now, in 2024, moved its tile production entirely to Turkey.

However, the fossilized sounds of a few selected V&B tiles remain somewhere here... in Merzig, in Berlin, on magnetic tape, digitally, www, memorized.

In the former sound installation and now on this cassette, you can hear the tiles assambled to a three-storey ceramophone... humming a farewell song to their origins with the voices and sounds that might be very well known to the 200 former V&B workers.

Earlier in 2025, Wevie Stonder returned to Skam with their first album in 16 years, and such an occasion requires further celebration, no? Sure Beats Living delivers more of the collective’s signature cheekiness, and this mix for Bleep unravels all of the wildly eclectic sounds and styles that have powered over two decades of iconoclasm.

This is probably the only mix you’ll find that travels from drill and bass to Ecuadorian synth cumbia to 40s jazz. Constant stylistic U-turns are the name of the game, and as the group recontextualise tracks with comedic skits and spoken word pieces, you never know which little sonic nugget is going to be the jumping off point for a completely opposite yet cleverly connected world of sound. Wevie Stonder’s own strange crossing between avant experimentation and punkish irreverence sits between the jangling bass guitar of Gary Le Strange, whose reclusive hikikomori-induced paranoia is delivered in an ironic nasally britpop voice, and the wonky synth funk of Devonwho with lush crisp beats and thrumming jazzy keys.

Bucolic Moog wash and lounge piano tiptoe beneath a Radiophonic Workshop-esque segment testing out the possibilities of synthesisers; “Finally, an example of rhythmic electronic music,” says the posh presenter, introducing a full and proper rinsing with some classic Squarepusher chops. Amen breaks are chucked in the shredder and glued back together with thick jungle bass, then dissipate into Hiroshi Yoshimura’s birdsong bliss. With these disparate tracklist transitions, each track in itself brings together unlikely combinations: further melodrama from Gary Le Strange pairs southern crooning with jaunty harpsichord, bass punches and cascading pianos flow between J Dilla’s slow hip hop hits, and Polibio Mayorga merges accordion and cowbells with the theatrics of expressively vintage synth sounds, brass and electronics trading lines on ‘Muñequita Blanca’.

Parce que Là Venir.e pense que l'ambiance c'est important, parce que Là Venir.e aime la musique des anges et les cris sauvages, parce que Là Venir.e écoute le grondement des machines et la course des astres, pour son premier numéro Là Venir.e a demandé à Léa Roger, de Félon et Osilasi, de composer une hymne au Chariot, une hymne cosmique, qui t'invite à la lutte, au soulèvement, à marcher toujours devant.
