In 1997, too tired to struggle with a locked art market, Julien Mérieau set up an analogue pirate radio station named Radio Mulot / France Museau. The project can be described both as a deviant history of music and a vector of sound manipulations and live experiences, inspired by dadaism, futurism, situationism, and of course industrial music culture, as a practice of reverse engineering and a deconstructive approach to radio media and mass media in general, including the World Wide Web.

The interest for the visual arts is crucial, the transmitter being used just ‘as a pencil’. No radio shows, no jingles, no talk, but instead, chunks of recorded voices, anti-jingles (found sound, etc.), dead writers talking through the voice of mediums, mixed with various soundscapes. The idea is to approach ‘music’ as a dissolving area that reaches and communicates with all kinds of artwork in visual arts, past and present, and the use of Internet and information technology having changed many things within the various forms of ‘music’ including the way to approach it in terms of sound programming.

Rodion Roșca (Rodion GA)
Because of his early experimentation with recording and effects, Rodion is considered the father of electronic music in Romania. In the early 70s, Rodion began experimenting with home recording equipment. In 1977 he formed Rodion GA, with the addition of Gicu Fărcaș and Adrian Căprar. Shockingly for an experimental act, Rodion GA even received radio airplay in Romania during the 80s communist regime of Ceaușescu.

Mark Stewart is an artist, vocalist, producer and songwriter from Bristol. As a founding member of The Pop Group and as a soloist, Stewart has remained an anarchic and pioneering figure since the punk era, a constant source of discordance amongst the frontiers of post-punk, dub, industrial, and electronic music.

In a body of work driven by an explosive form of lyricism and inspired by radical politics, protest movements, theory, philosophy, technology, art, and poetry, Stewart has fearlessly cultivated a revelatory collision of ideas, ideals, and influences throughout an indisputably groundbreaking and seditious career.

Textbeak has quite a history in industrial, and dark electronic and experimental music, influenced heavily by bands like Coil, Cabaret Voltaire, and Skinny Puppy. In 1994, as Bath, he released several albums on Jevan Records. He has since also released music through Cleopatra Records, Moon Sounds, Carlos Perón’s (Yello) Dark Daze Records, Tundra Dubs, 21/22 Corporation, Post Religion, Pale Noir, and Lasergun, and appeared on compilations with artists such as Coil, Sleep Chamber, Konstruktivits, and Portion Control.

DEFA (Benjamin Hartman) has been creating and collaborating on music since the early 90s and has been included on many releases with projects Bath, Textbeak, Mulga, and In The Shadow of the Monolith. His style is deeply rooted in dark, electronic, beat-driven visions and layers of blackened frequencies. This type of sonic dissonance was also a feature on his radio show The Dark Phonic Hour of Power. His latest release Digital Debris can be found at Hexx9 Records’ Bandcamp.

RODION GA X MARK STEWART X TEXTBEAK X DEFA - UN NEBUN

Influenced by artists such as Coil, Cabaret Voltaire, and Skinny Puppy, Textbeak started creating music in the late 80s with Todd Sines. Together, they worked on various projects and eventually formed B/Re (Body Release) with Titonton Duvante and Charles Noel. Textbeak (as his project Bath) later signed with Jevan Records (run by gothic band Lestat) and recorded with producer Kramer (Shimmy Disk). He has since released solo works under the name Textbeak on various labels.   

Textbeak has performed at many events nationally and internationally, opening for notable artists such as Modern English, Merzbow, Nitzer Ebb, The Legendary Pink Dots and Meat Beat Manifesto. He has also remixed tracks for various artists, including Architect (aka Daniel Myer of Haujobb), ∆AIMON, Blush Response and Bestial Mouths. His 2016 album, Sick For Songs A Season Eats on Cleopatra Records, featured collaborations with Mark Stewart (The Pop Group), John Fryer (This Mortal Coil) and more.  

His new album, ASEMIC MUSICK, is planned for release in late 2025 on the Industrial Detroit label and features collabs with Antoni Maiovvi (Ye Gods), Brood Faye, Other, Broken Nails, Gwendolyn Dot and more!

Lyrics:
CVL† SH‡† - ßƟD¥ ßΔGƵ
You’ll never understand until you’ve been there.
Been down so much, that all you can manage to do now is sit there.
Thinking back at all the choices that you made to get there.
Pumping a fist to the sky telling god “it ain’t fair.”
But yo, we ain’t there.
How could it be with all this devastation and desperation surrounding me.
So put me in the ground ‘cause this life has just been pounded out of me,
The only reason I ain’t sleeping now ‘cause I got mouths to feed.
Why can’t I catch a break?
Why can’t I step away and wake up one morning and think that things wont be a mess today.
I gotta break the cycle somehow,
Sick of this pain, I'm sick of living this way.
Okay, I’m done now.
Not having fun now, there’s just so many reasons.
Feel as if my soul’s a broken puzzle and I’m missing pieces.
It’s real easy for you to judge them when you see them,
But you’ll never truly understand unless you’ve ever been there.
A place where hope was thin in the air.
If things are gonna get better tell me a ‘when’ and a ‘where’.
Sitting and staring in the mirror, nobody’s there,
That I know, feeling so alone and I’m scared that nobody cares.
My nights consist of so many prayers.
I once had so many dreams, I once was going somewhere.
Try and following steps before you start to compare,
Me to you and you don’t know me, now you think that that’s fair?
I never thought my path would lead me to the point I’m at now.
But before they get up, some people gotta fall down.
Some fall harder than others, they thought they had it all down.
Me, I take these experience and jot them all down.
But how do you cope when you think that hope is nowhere around?
How do you know where to go if you haven’t been found?
Yo, I’m saying it’s draining living this pain that I’m in.
You’re quick to judge me but you haven’t been the places I’ve been, c’mon.
You’ll never understand until you’ve been there.
Been down so much, that all you can manage to do now is sit there.
Thinking back at all the choices that you made to get there.
Pumping a fist to the sky telling god “it ain’t fair.”
But yo, we ain’t there.
How could it be with all this devastation and desperation surrounding me.
So put me in the ground ‘cause this life has just been pounded out of me,
The only reason I ain’t sleeping now ‘cause I got mouths to feed.
Why can’t I catch a break?
Why can’t I step away and wake up one morning and think that things wont be a mess today.
I gotta break the cycle somehow,
Sick of this pain, I'm sick of living this way.
Okay, I’m done now.
Not having fun now, there’s just so many reasons.
Feel as if my soul’s a broken puzzle and I’m missing pieces.
It’s real easy for you to judge them when you see them,
But you’ll never truly understand unless you’ve ever been there.
