Absolute Body Control was formed by Dirk Ivens in 1980 influenced by the sound produced by the likes of Suicide, D.A.F. and the UK electronic scene. Eric Van Wonterghem joined the project next year just after the release of the debut 7" "Is There An Exit?". They released together just some cassettes during its brief initial run, but this was enough to gain a following in and outside Belgium. A compilation of tracks entitled "Eat This" was eventually done in 1993 and a first edition of the collection "Lost / Found" was issued on CD in 2005.

Dirk and Eric took the project back on stage in 2006 and decided to re-activate it. They first re-recorded some of their classic songs for the album "Wind[Re]Wind" and then continued releasing new material and touring all Europe and beyond.

MNQ 057 The Actor - Exploded View LP / Cassette

We are really proud to announce the reissue of one of the most important Dutch Wave bands THE ACTOR, with their seminal 1982 tape "EXPLODED VIEW". "In the beginning of the eighties, a new phenomenon emerged: home taping. This way of recording resulted in a lot of noise. But that was less important then getting one’s music out to the public. A well known label for cassette bands in those days was the dutch Trumpett Tapes. They were the first to publish the music of The Actor, who became their top selling cassette band in 1982 and 1983. The Actor’s first release was Exploded View in 1982. The songs – sung both in English and German – often related to fashion, modernism, dancing and appearence. This made The Actor “quite fashionable."

LP Edition of 500 copies.
Tape Edition of 120 copies.

Limited silskcreen art edition for the first 50 copies, 160 gram white vinyl.

Remastered from the original tapes by Rude 66, The Netherlands, 2014.

Dancing and laughing 
The cool night…
Absorbing all to myself
Me going in for my chances

Musical rain, musical soul
The city sleeps, and the country sleeps
I am the poet of the body
I am the poet of the soul

We must have a turn together 
I undress

Flames and ether making a rush for my veins.
A minute and a drop of me settle
my brain
I think I could turn and live with animals.

Dancing and laughing X2

I accept time absolutely 
obliquely high and 
And that we call being 
Is this then a touch? X2

I accept time absolutely 
obliquely high and low
And that we call being 
Absorbing all to myself
Divine am I inside and out X5

Flames and ether making a rush for my veins.
A minute and a drop of me settle
my brain.

I think I could turn and live with animals
Dancing and laughing X2
You contain enough 
Why don’t you let in out then? X3
Flames and ether making a rush for my veins.

A minute and a drop of me setlle
my brain.
I think I could turn and live with animals
Dancing and laughing.

Musical rain, musical soul
A minute and a drop of me settle
my brain
I think I could turn and live with animals.
Dancing and laughing  X2

Divine am I inside and out 
I do not snivel that snivel the world over
That months are vacuums and the ground but wallow and filth. X2

Lyrics:
When the night is almost dead,
and the alcohol gets old,
and the northern air bites cold,
will you listen?

When the music runs out of steems,
and the ecstasy gets old,
and the silence turns into gold,
will you listen?

This is the after party.. after party...

When the children are all asleep,
and the girls all start to kiss,
and the guys all feel a hiss,
will you listen?

When the walls begin to shatter,
and the blood starts to reminisce,
all the chances they all missed,
will you listen?

After Party
