Romantic and grindingly sonic..... the legend knows no limits

Some folk say this track has no chorus but I think you could class this as the chorus.

Thank you, Gary! Your music is an inspiration! So much imagery! 

Back to his very best, dark, haunting, massive disturbingly brillant assualt on your senses. Booooom!

Gary Numan - Dead Sun Rising

Whilst recently digitising my tape archive I came across this one from Geff/John Balance of Coil, with whom I frequently exchanged music. It features this one solitary track which I believe he gave me to play out at my Electronic Lounge club that I ran at the Institute of Contemporary Arts London in 1994.

The other side features remixes of the band Stabbing Westward tune 'Lies' but don't believe this has anything to do with Coil. I just think Geff was recycling a tape that was lying around in the studio. This seems to be an alternative mix of ELpH - Static Electrician, longer than the released version.

I share it with you out of respect to the memory of great people no longer with us, and ask that you don't try to profit by making money out of this. Gift culture can make others happy :-)

Coil - For Robin

Salm: Volume One, from which this track is taken, documents a form of religious singing practiced in Lewis, a form that reaches back to a time when the congregation could not be expected to be able to read. Instead, a ‘precentor’ leads the singing, which the congregation then follow by listening. The result is a surging sound, that swoops and falls around the church spaces as people follow those next to them, voices moving like the murmurations of birds. These recordings of Gaelic psalm singing are among the best ever captured, sung by one of the largest congregations to have ever been recorded.  

This style of singing is called free heterophony, and these recordings were spontaneous and totally unrehearsed. They were originally made over two evenings in the Back Free Church on the Isle of Lewis in October 2003, organised by Calum Martin and the Bethesda hospice in Lewis. The original CD was released through Bethesda hospice on Lewis, and a portion of the profits go back to the hospice, honouring the original recording.

Founded in the UK in 2008, The Quietus is one of the world’s leading independent websites for quality longform writing on visionary and modernist music and culture, covering all genres with an equal weighting.

The Quietus treats the emerging artists of the genre-melting present with the same reverence the mainstream reserves for the stale canon of yesteryear. We look to reappraise and revitalise those artistic pioneers abandoned in the hinterland.

We champion trailblazing and illuminating cultural journalism from around the world – numerous successful writers and broadcasters are first published on our pages.

After years held back by a creaking old website, The Quietus (tQ to our friends) has been regenerated, providing an indispensable portal to a realm of cultural discovery, devilment and debate.

“The Quietus believes in the power of cultural criticism to cut through the noise of social media and the ultimately disappointing guidance of tech platform algorithms. To write down a series of words that have never been combined before, expressing a complex series of emotions, thoughts and experiences that unites writer and reader at a level that feels telepathic and changes the joint experience of reality: That is the definition of magic.” – tQ Co-founder John Doran.
