                        to make ASCII art for it)-&gt; you have reached
                        the highest level in the order of the SHADOW

                      Fighting against the concrete jungle </font><br>
                    <br>
                    <font color="#00dd00">Guerilla Gardening is the act
                      of illicitly transforming grim dead places into
                      colorful botanical paradises. Creating clandestine
                      gardens, planting flowers and all sorts of flora
                      in abandoned lots, patches of dirt, city streets,
                      all sorts of concrete dullness in/around public
                      places.<br>
                      <br>
                      You will be transforming miserable dead land into
                      the colorful botanical splendor of life.<br>
                      <br>
                      One of the most ideal ways to do this is to create
                      'seed green-nades' - these are small sphere
                      shaped&nbsp; (non-explosive) 'seed bombs' made out
                      of clay, compost and seeds which are easily thrown
                      anywhere. Because they are pretty much
                      self-contained with nutrients, the sphere will
                      give the seeds some much needed starting power,
                      especially in poorer soil areas.<br>
                      <br>
                      This is ideal to transform urban decayed wasteland
                      and empty lots into blossoming flower /plant
                      fields - attracting birds, insects (bees!) and
                      making everything much nicer. Now is the time to
                      do this - its very little effort and also fun to
                      do - become a Guerilla Gardener today!<br>
                      <br>
                      What you need to make a seed green-ade:<br>
                      <br>
                      1 part mixed seeds<br>
                      3 part living compost<br>
                      5 parts of red clay<br>
                      0.2 parts of chili powder to repel insects and
                      birds eating the seeds. <br>
                      - If you are really into that stuff you can make
                      uniforms too, or patches of your para-military
                      Guerilla Gardening group. <br>
                      <br>
                      About the seeds you can use, this depends a bit on
                      what you want to achieve and what will grow in
                      your area and type of soil it has to grow on. Do
                      some research, its always good to have a mix of
                      lots of different seeds. Take in consideration
                      things like weather, how much water there will be,
                      how much sun there is, cardinal direction etc.
                      Also think on a 'psychological' level: you can
                      make a depressing grim area nicer by seeding
                      colorful rich smelling plants (Flowers like
                      lavender, Daffodils, Honeysuckle, Jasmin, lilac
                      but also all sorts of herbs; Rosemary,
                      catmint,&nbsp; Marjoram, Sage, Basil etc.etc.etc.)<br>
                      <br>
                      You can choose resilient plants that will grow
                      anywhere, seeds that will give flowers that
                      attract bees and help the wild bee population,
                      seeds that will grow plants that enrich the soil
                      etc.etc.etc. Your local gardening store or
                      whatever most probably sells boxes of special seed
                      mixes or else get a bunch of different seed packs
                      and throw them together.<br>
                      Be respectful of the local flora habitat don't put
                      in invasive damaging species or weeds that will
                      destroy everything.<br>
                      <br>
                      Mix all this stuff together and knead them into
                      small balls, say somewhere in between a jawbreaker
                      and a golf ball.<br>
                      <br>
                      Put them all in a bag and start planning your
                      mission. Do you need to be covert? Do it when its
                      dark, wear dark clothing and operate in a stealthy
                      fashion. If there is no danger of getting caught
                      or nobody cares about the spot where you are going
                      to do gardening you can do it in broad daylight
                      and make it a bit of a public happening.<br>
                      <br>
                      Another way of 'covertly' operating in broad
                      public daylight (hide in plain sight) is wearing
                      some official looking apparel - an overall, a work
                      shirt and cap with some logo on it, maybe even a
                      walkie-talkie, clipboard or a 'danger' pylon.
                      People will mind their own business thinking you
                      work for some city gardening department.<br>
                      <br>
                      If the spot is difficult to get to, throw the seed
                      bombs over fences and places you can't reach.<br>

                      goddamn rider - don't they know we have exactly
                      the same thing here in Europe, a pseudo cereal
                      called buckwheat. It's also a superfood but it
                      doesn't have to travel all the way from South
                      America on a polluting airplane. And also no poor
                      Peruvian Llamas have to be exploited to their
                      death to transport it from the Andes mountains.
                      Buckwheat also tastes much better and is mostly
                      made in Russia with advanced tractors and no
                      Llamas that are being exploited. Could you please
                      make a case for buckwheat because I know these

                      craze quite disturbing as we indeed have
                      indigenous buckwheat which is far superior and
                      much more versatile. These 'types' should know
                      that the whole Quinoa industry is just a
                      continuation of European colonialism and it is
                      destroying the environment. We will definitely
                      write a special about PSEUDO CEREALS in the

                      the Andes regions -&gt; Don't buy quinoa get
                      buckwheat instead! - it's local, almost the same
                      thing and much nicer. A nice thing to do with
                      buckwheat is making pancakes, a delicious
                      breakfast treat that will make much more impact
                      then soggy quinoa pancakes that fall apart just by
                      looking at them, ironically just like what happens

                        OUT'writes:<br>
                        Last week we booked the hyped Italian techno
                        DJ's Marcello Lamborgini &amp; Donatello
                        Macaroni for 7000 euros in a package deal. When
                        they arrived they demanded several class A
                        narcotic substances of which we had no idea how
                        to supply them. They would refuse to play if we
                        wouldn't get them their drugs. When we told them
                        that we had no idea how to supply them with
                        these substances they started to throw some
                        rather nasty temper tantrums like little spoiled
                        brats.<br>
                        The audience numbering around 19 people, of
                        which one came all the way from Surrey, was
                        getting a bit rowdy when our local warm up DJ
                        started to play his entire collection of
                        Strictly Rhythm records for the 2nd time. We had
                        to act fast to make this night a success, we
                        could not disappoint these 19 fans of fine
                        Italian minimal club tech house. <br>
                        Then I remembered that Keith, our clubs
                        technician, had bought some weed once from a
                        fellow off the allotments. We asked him if he
                        could get 5 grams of ketamine,a family bag of
                        cocaine and 3 ampules of cheap speed. We gave
                        him 20 pounds and he said he would 'fix' it.
                        Relieved we told the Italian DJ's - who were now
                        on the phone complaining to their agent and
                        trying to blacklist us and get the first flight
                        back home. They would give us only one chance
                        but pointed out that is was outrageous that we
                        hadn't any drugs ready for them.<br>
                        Meanwhile Keith had a little trouble finding the
                        stuff and in his desperation had raided his
                        parents bathroom cabinet and cut up a bunch of
                        xanax tablets with a pack of Rennies(tm)
                        laxative powder.<br>
                        Well you don't have to have much imagination to
                        know what ensued after the Italians sniffed the
                        entire bag without noticing it wasn't their
                        usual medicine. The night sure turned into a
                        fine mess, if it wasn't already one to start
                        with. We had to pay all 19 attendees their
                        tickets back and also had to go down to the 24
                        hour gas station to get some diapers and
                        wunderbaum air refreshers to hang in the club.
                        And the next week we were also&nbsp; billed with
                        extra hotel cleaning costs as they had left an
                        entire trail of diarrhea from the lobby of the
                        travelodge to their rooms, including a pool in
                        the elevator that was so hard to clean up that
                        they had to install new carpets.</font><br>
                      <br>
                      Ed. I am sure this night went down way more
                      spectacular then if they had played their boring
                      techhouse with their usual drugs! All jokes aside
                      just book artists and DJ's from the Dutch West
                      Coast scene, they are mostly light on drug use and
                      are known for their exquisite social etiquette and
                      behavior!<br>

                        ranting, on what makes a track sound good to us
                        puny humans, by our special reporter
                        BoeufStroganoff<br>
                        <br>
                        AI... AI... ! AI is the new information
                        superhighway, the new "in the year 2000". You
                        hear about it in every start-up company pitch
                        and hi-tech product description. But now even
                        your coffee machine is equipped with AI. Of
                        course, it is&nbsp; not used for making better
                        coffee, but for snitching on you for the benefit
                        of the manufacturer. He probably makes more
                        money selling your day-to-day routine data than
                        he does selling the coffee machine in the first
                        place.<br>
                        We music aficionados are not spared by this AI
                        craze. As would flashy click-baits title have
                        you know, it is the future of the music
                        industry, the eardrum revolution, a new era of
                        computer generated music content.<br>
                        Wait a minute, hold on... that sounds more like
                        a big pile of bovine discharge to me. Or is it ?<br>
                        <br>
                        It is important to make a distinction between
                        two concepts involving AI in music production. <br>
                        There are studio tools, a natural evolution of
                        previous VST's and plugins, allowing you to do
                        impressive stuff like intelligent noise
                        cancelling, instrument isolation, auto-autotune,
                        auto-mixing tools and so on. No problem there,
                        they are designed to make your life easier. But
                        then you have AI as the composer of the music
                        itself. <br>
                        The latter, in combination with the former can
                        produce an entirely new track out of a dataset
                        and some initial parameters like genre, length,
                        tempo, you name it.<br>
                        OK cool yeah whatever... But how does it sounds
                        and is it really something that we want ?<br>
                        <br>
                        Of course not all music in the world has to be
                        an amazing transcendental experience. It's quite
                        the opposite in fact. Most of the music produced
                        today is more of the functional type, just
                        fulfilling its task of filling a silent void
                        that would otherwise be perceived as
                        uncomfortable. You can't really play intricate
                        clever banging junglecore in an elderly home
                        elevator (or can you ?)&nbsp; We need proper
                        elevator music. Similarily, that background deep
                        house music they play in hipster hotel lobbies
                        nowadays isn't that complicated and it might
                        very well be cheaper to generate it on the fly
                        with AI. And that sort of music should be
                        appreciated just for that, regardless of how it
                        was produced. It is a segment of the music
                        industry that can totally be taken over by AI
                        because this type of music is only used as a
                        reassuring background soundscape. And let's not
                        talk about the millions of scripted Youtube
                        videos in need of canned music that were
                        uploaded as you read these lines. This plethora
                        of cheapo music will have an impact on the
                        "price" of music : in the same way that the
                        value of quality pictures decreased constantly
                        since humans are producing images, the
                        once-reserved-for-kings privilege of ordering
                        music to an artist will continue to go down
                        until it will reach zero, Enron style.<br>
                        <br>
                        So far, all the examples I've seen of online
                        services that provide music generated by AI fall
                        in that category : something you listen to
                        without paying much attention. <br>
                        Decide some parameters, click generate and
                        PRESTO, you have a piece of music. But is it any
                        good ? Listening to it seems ok for a few
                        seconds and then re-PRESTO : it starts to make
                        you feel a bit weird, something is off, you feel
                        the industrial-processed taste of it. Fake
                        butter doesn't taste like butter, and fake music
                        doesn't feel like music. But can you use it or
                        is it all bad ? The analogy to photography
                        imposes itself here : in this
                        pro-Instagrammability era of cheap imagery,
                        anybody can be a good photographer. The recipe
                        is simple : take hundreds of pictures and only
                        select the top 3 nicest ones. Then, here we go,
                        everybody thinks you are an amazing legit
                        photographer.<br>
                        The experience with AI music can be quite
                        similar. Just generate tons of tracks, take the
                        best one and delete the others. Then, suddenly,
                        AI is OK at making music. <br>
                        Of course, we could train another AI to select
                        that 1 good track out of 10,000... seems like we
                        can russian-doll the process here, but how would
                        you train that AI to process these tracks ?<br>
                        <br>
                        We hear very often that the creative act is
                        based on accidents. Sure, it is true that you
                        can come up with amazing melodies that you
                        didn't originally envisioned. Has anybody here
                        ever programmed a MC-202 ? Make a mistake while
                        recording the midi track of your next supersaw
                        lead or something and BAM, illusion of talent !
                        We could also "mutate" whatever an AI is giving
                        us, but this is where it becomes interesting :
                        accidents are indeed important, but what is more
                        important is the ability to judge those
                        accidents and decide if they should be rejected,
                        assimilated or modified further for even better
                        results. And THAT is the thing that is a bit
                        more tricky for a computer : having taste.<br>
                        <br>
                        The musician's judgement about composition and
                        sound design is a very complex process, relying
                        on the entire life, taste and background of the
                        artist. Maybe the color of the wallpaper in the
                        toilet of your grandmother's bathroom might have
                        a small impact on all aspects of your choices as
                        a musician, taking your track on an alternative
                        path. Taste is a constant and deliberate state
                        of mind with which the artist applies a set of
                        rules defined by his past life experiences at
                        every level of the composition process. It's a
                        bit like taking a hike on a mapped trail,
                        slipping, and instead of returning onto the
                        trail, you decide that it looks more beautiful
                        down here. Chances are you will discover a new
                        valley filled with cool rock formations that
                        you've never seen. You might as well camp there
                        for the night and explore. AI of today do not
                        have a life, they do not have experience, they
                        do not have... consciousness. And this is why
                        they will not replace musicians anytime soon.<br>
                        <br>
                        Without trying to channel good old Nostradamus
                        here, I think this whole AI business will become
                        extremely interesting when it will be complex
                        enough to develop some kind of weird
                        cyber-brains, capable of cognitive thoughts,
                        thus opening the Pandora box. But our definition
                        of what sounds good might be different. How will
                        those silicon cyber-beings feel the passage of
                        time for example ? Time, or rythme, is the most
                        defining concept of any kind of music, and I'm
                        sure the vibe must be different when you can
                        perform 57248 MIPS. Maybe they will produce
                        legendary tracks that only last 5 microseconds.
                        A great piece of art for them, but just a faint
                        "click" for us. I'm quite curious to hear music
                        motivated by a computer "Vague ‡ l'ame". A good
                        AI would also integrate the fact that sometimes
                        you need to listen to a song several times, in
                        different contexts, in order to suddenly unlock
                        it's magical appeal. And what about that track
                        that sucks for the first 5 min and then suddenly
                        becomes amazing by contrast ? Some tracks are
                        impossible to listen to during a rainy commute,
                        but play it loudly with the right amount of
                        ethanol in your blood and you will take off to
                        space. It would take a concious AI to understand
                        those concepts and AI stuff generated today only
                        tend to provide music that are designed to be
                        liked right away. Boring !<br>
                        <br>
                        Today's AI can be very good at taking care of
                        some parameters of your tracks though. Making
                        sure the technical aspect of your piece of music
                        follow some pre-established rules, like not
                        clipping for example. But I'm afraid of this
                        kind of conformity, and if your AI avoids, on a
                        technical standpoint, to make any mistakes, then
                        you're missing out on quite a large landscape of
                        these happy accidents. As a way of analogy,
                        using Lens flares in cinema was considered a
                        technical no-no, a proof of your amateurism as a
                        director of photography, and any lab technician
                        would report it if he sees one. Well... JJ
                        Abrams anyone ?<br>
                        <br>
                        It seems like the use of AI in human business is
                        quite successful when applied to specific
                        repetitive tasks, like image recognition and
                        manipulation, pattern recognition within
                        datasets and so on. But for the creation of an
                        genuine original artistic piece, AI seems to
                        lack the framework possesed by humans to be able
                        to create something ex-nihilo. You can ask an AI
                        to recreate an old Flemish painting if it has
                        all the other existing Flemish paintings
                        available to it, but can you give an AI a blank
                        canvas and ask it to create a new style of
                        painting without copying whatever was done
                        before ?<br>
                        <br>
                        <br>
                        So what makes a good "human" track ? well I
                        can't help but somehow comparing it to sex.
                        Everybody has their special taste, a little kink
                        that suddenly talks to you. It can be the
                        position of your arm, the angle of the neck of
                        your partner, a sound... Something would just
                        suddenly click in your head because of what you
                        see or feel, drives you, and makes you come. To
                        some weird extend, I think the fact that our
                        brain suddenly decides to trip on a track is
                        quite similar. But as for sex, it is a very
                        personal experience, a sort of individual
                        signature, a set of rules that only applies for
                        you. You can easily feel that tipping-point
                        moment when good musicians jam together. It's a
                        bit sketchy at first, then their brains
                        synchronize and the energies add up. Suddenly
                        something happens, a pleasure nerve is activated
                        in each of their head and the public feels it in
                        a resonant fashion. Now the pleasure of the
                        audience is proportional to the one of the
                        musician, because a bridge is being build
                        between the two minds. This is the moment where
                        my shy-self would&nbsp; suddenly allow my body
                        to let go of its inhibitions and dance like
                        nobody is watching. <br>
                        <br>
                        Music and the pleasure of listening to it is
                        about setting a standard for yourself. People
                        might call you an elitist for not liking pop
                        stuff, for listening to "obscure" electronic
                        stuff. But what you listen to is no one else's
                        business. You like what you like because of the
                        pleasure it generates in you, not because you
                        want to impress the others. You like what you
                        like because you see a different twist, an
                        originality, a colourful soul in it. You want to
                        explore your limits and push them further into
                        new genres and artists. The love of Music is
                        mainly a matter of pleasure but also the love of
                        being challenged intellectually by it a bit. If
                        you think AI is here to supplant humans, just
                        give a listen to a Prokofiev concerto to
                        convince yourself otherwise. AI will not replace
                        a lifetime of emotions, talent and hard work. It
                        just provides a new musical product using a
                        checklist of gimmicks, rules and stereotypes
                        that make a track sound like the real deal but
                        it is not the real deal.<br>
                        <br>
                        AI today only adds up to the digital background
                        noise that we are generating more and more in
                        our society. It's going to pollute our cyberways
                        by drowning authentic human-generated content in
                        a gigantic sea of automatically generated fake
                        stuff. Do you remember how charming it was when
                        all the webpages of the internet where designed
                        and written by humans ? They all had a special
                        charm and differed from one another. Now human
                        generated content has become a rarity. Small,
                        niche groups, like our synth community, are
                        still maintaining some of them, dedicated to a
                        brand of samplers or compiling anything there is
                        to know about a certain synthesizer for example.
                        But as their owners die or forget to pay the
                        bills, they are slowly being replaced by the
                        dreadful 404 page.<br>
                        <br>
                        Since the very essence of non-functional music
                        is to communicate emotions, and since we know
                        that an AI does not feel any at its current
                        stage of evolution, we therefore can't fall into
                        the trap. AI for any artistically relevant music
                        is a scam, a well adjusted algorithm designed to
                        trick us... an Ode to Fakery. The late James
                        Stinson mentionned that he isolated himself from
                        every influence to create his music, that it
                        came from within, untouched, clean from the
                        corruption of external magnetism. AI's very
                        nature can't do that. But what if we start
                        cross-feeding it with other datasets, in fact
                        with all the other datasets available in the
                        world. Suddenly it can learn about ancient
                        Japanese clay pot design, fashion from the 20's,
                        shapes of tree leaves around the world, and
                        literature from Ouzbekistan. Perhaps, with
                        access to all this complexity, AI will slowly be
                        able to touch us, to pass the eardrum Turing
                        test, and produce some good shit. But one
                        important question remains : can an A-grade fake
                        be considered to be as good as the original
                        ?&nbsp; <br>

                    </font>&nbsp;<br>
                    <font color="#ddbb22">One day I found myself in
                      possession of an odd cassette tape titled "EASY
                      WEIGHT: Zonder diet naar een natuurlijk gewicht",
                      an eccentric self-help tape promoting weight loss
                      through hypnosis. I came across it one afternoon
                      while scavenging the local thrift store and was
                      drawn by its DIY vibe and insert notes informing
                      that it was a production of a Dutch non-profit
                      organisation researching and promoting hypnosis
                      for medical purposes, including for treating
                      fibromyalgia. Although the tape is pure
                      exploitation, it has some interesting musical
                      qualities as well as a DIY attitude to it.<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      The tape has some connections with the synthesizer
                      new age ambient world. Underlying the tape's
                      narration is a belief that the unconscious can
                      also be manipulated for medical purposes such a
                      pain management and weight loss through music,
                      through entrancing slow and pulsating melodies and
                      guided visualizations.<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      The internet is full of hypnotherapy aids,
                      including innumerable 10-hour videos and playlists
                      on youtube. But before the age of youtube, a
                      market existed for self-hypnosis and guided
                      meditation or subliminal persuasion cassette
                      tapes.<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      But, why not make your very own exploitation tape?<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      First, decide what kind of self-help tape you want
                      to make. Stress and anxiety? Positive
                      reinforcement? Quit smoking? Become a better
                      lover? Weight loss? Sleep better?<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      Once you've established your exploitative goal,
                      choose your synth(s). Ideally choose one or two
                      synths for a more focused sound and recording
                      process. An FM synth or rudimentary keyboard would
                      do the trick. Decide whether you want to record
                      one long track, or several shorter ones. Then,
                      start with a slow, repetitive and entrancing
                      melody to initiate the hypnosis state and build
                      the narrative, which should be punctual and slow.
                      Spice it up with some extra wow and flutter, which
                      you can easily simulate by quickly turning the
                      rate on a delay pedal, pitch pending or using the
                      smackos tape simulator. For the format, you can
                      for instance record one side of the tape for day
                      time hypnosis and the other side for the night
                      time, or record the same track(s) on both sides of
                      the tape for longer or repetitive listening.<br>
                      &nbsp;<br>
                      Don't forget the tape artwork and tape inlay,
                      where you can invent the name of fake organisation
                      or medical institution and real-life testimonies
                      of people whose lives have been transformed
                      forever by the tape!<br>

                        Shadow Wolf CyberZine met online with Tristan
                        Koreya, who runs “Nostalgie de la Boue”, an
                        intriguing and renegade music label and blog of
                        the same name based in Abidjan Côte d'Ivoire,
                        specializing among others in industrial,
                        ambient, noise, musique concrète, and field
                        recordings. The label features both well-known
                        and less well-known artists, as well as around
                        136 releases, including two excellent
                        compilations titled “rien ni personne”. The blog
                        and related label are titled after a
                        :zoviet*france track off the album Loh Land
                        (1987), which in turn is a reference to
                        the&nbsp; expression coined by mid-nineteenth
                        century dramatist Émile Augier, meaning an
                        attraction to&nbsp; depravity, crudity or
                        something vile. </font><br>

                      <font color="#aaaabb">SWCZ: First, thank you for
                        accepting to virtually meet with us for this
                        edition of the Shadow Wolf CyberZine! I came
                        across your net-label Nostalgie de la Boue on
                        Bandcamp as well as your blog of the same name
                        while looking up artists. Could you tell us a
                        bit about Nostalgie de la Boue, both the label
                        and the blog? </font><br>
                      <br>
                      TK: In the mid-2000s, I started to rethink about
                      everything that had been produced in the 1980s and
                      1990s in the field of industrial/post-industrial
                      and experimental music and I wanted to create an
                      archive web site, but I didn’t do it because I
                      didn't have the technical skills to do so – it
                      remained at the idea stage. During the summer of
                      2007, I was delighted to discover some blogs that
                      offered free downloads of rare and exhausted
                      cassette or vinyl rips: the first one was Mutant
                      Sounds, the second one The Thing On The Doorstep,
                      and others later on. I started downloading what I
                      was interested in and quickly I had a pretty
                      accurate view of everything that was available on
                      the Internet. So I decided to create my own blog
                      to put online cassettes or records that I hadn’t
                      seen anywhere else on the Internet, after
                      understanding that it was technically very simple.<br>
                      <br>
                      The name of the blog, “Nostalgie de la Boue”, is
                      the title of a track by :zoviet*france:, one of my
                      favorite bands, on the album “Loh Land”
                      (Staalplaat, 1987). Being French, this song title
                      in French intrigued me and pleased me, I memorized
                      it. When I looked for a name for the blog I
                      created at the end of 2007, I thought about it. I
                      then searched the Internet and learned that this
                      expression, which does not have a very precise or
                      clear meaning in French, is used as it is in
                      English. Literally, “nostalgie de la boue” can be
                      translated as “nostalgia for mud”. According to
                      some definitions found on the Internet, the
                      expression means: “a desire for or attraction to
                      crudity, vulgarity, depravity, etc.”; “an
                      attraction to what is unworthy, crude, or
                      degrading”; “a yearning for something base or
                      vile”; “longing for an uncivilized, savage and
                      indulgent life”. According to the Oxford English
                      Dictionary, it also means: “A longing for sexual
                      or social degradation; a desire to regress to more
                      primitive social conditions or behaviour than
                      those to which a person is accustomed”. A slightly
                      different definition is given on another site:
                      “‘Nostalgie de la Boue’ means ascribing higher
                      spiritual values to people and cultures considered
                      ‘lower’ than oneself, the romanticization of the
                      faraway primitive which is also the equivalent of
                      the lower class close to home”. So all this fits
                      well with the spirit of the blog.<br>
                      <br>
                      When I created Nostalgie de la Boue, there were
                      already many blogs that inspired me. My favorites
                      were: Atlantis Audio Archive, Because God Told Me
                      To Do It, Continuo, Dualtrack, Mutant Sounds, No
                      Longer Forgotten Music, Phoenix Hairpins, Shards
                      Of Beauty and The Thing On The Doorstep which no
                      longer exists but was in my opinion the best of
                      all. Among the blogs I discovered or that appeared
                      after I created mine, I especially appreciated
                      those that offered original rips or took into
                      account what was already available on other blogs.
                      Indeed, in the early years, there was a spirit of
                      community between blogs. We were connected and
                      each one followed what the others posted in a
                      cumulative logic. This spirit has been lost with
                      more and more blogs focusing on quantity without
                      taking into account what others post. Some repost
                      rips from other blogs or peer-to-peer sites
                      without citing their source and without worrying
                      about what else exists. I do not recognize myself
                      in this spirit, even if it probably meets the
                      expectations of many users.<br>
                      <br>
                      As for Nostalgie de la Boue, for a few years now,
                      I can no longer make rips myself because I live
                      most of the time in Africa, far from my collection
                      of cassettes and records. That’s why the majority
                      of rips posted on the blog now come from external
                      contributors, which is interesting for both me and
                      them, because some people like to rip and share
                      some tapes or records from their collection
                      without wanting to run a blog. It is also another
                      way to maintain the spirit of exchange.<br>
                      <br>
                      The net-label started a little by chance, as part
                      of the blog. In 2011, Canadian musician Al Conroy,
                      who performs under the name Not Half, offered me
                      to post on the blog the recording of one of his
                      recent concerts. On the cover he designed for this
                      post, he added the reference ndlb#1. It gave me
                      the idea to ask other artists to send me
                      unpublished recordings, recent or old, to make a
                      series. That’s how it started. The first releases
                      were only published on the blog, among the other
                      posts. But after having published several of them,
                      I decided to create a net-label on Bandcamp to
                      better highlight them. I gathered the first
                      releases and started looking for more.<br>
                      For the blog, the objective was to exhume rare and
                      unavailable releases, so it has always been and
                      will remain dedicated to old things, whether it is
                      cassettes, vinyls or CDs. For the net-label, it’s
                      different, since artists are invited from the
                      beginning to propose recent recordings if they
                      want, new or rare, but also because I gradually
                      decided to open it to artists of the new
                      generations.<br>
                      <br>
                      Indeed, during the first years, the idea of the
                      net-label was to propose releases by artists
                      working in the field of industrial/post-industrial
                      and experimental music for a long time, who
                      therefore belonged to the older generations. These
                      releases could be recent or older recordings,
                      unpublished or re-released classics. It was later
                      that I decided to open the net-label to artists of
                      the new generations. On the other hand, one
                      principle has not changed since the beginning: I
                      want to propose a great diversity of styles,
                      because I don’t like the idea of a label locked in
                      a too limited musical identity.<br>
                      <br>
                      Finally, regarding the financial aspect, at first
                      I wanted the net-label to only offer releases for
                      free download, as on the blog. But on Bandcamp,
                      beyond a certain number of free downloads offered,
                      the page manager must pay to get a new credit for
                      free downloads to offer; so with the money earned
                      through voluntary payments, I can finance the free
                      downloads offered. Moreover, the fact of making it
                      possible to pay by the “name your price” option
                      also allows you to upload longer tracks; it was
                      one of the artists from whom I had to release a
                      long track who advised me to switch to this
                      option.<br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#aaaabb">SWCZ: You are a digital-only
                        label, in an era where vinyl and cassette are
                        still very much in demand. Could you tell us
                        about your choice of running a digital-only free

                      <br>
                      TK: As I mentioned earlier, the creation of the
                      net-label is born within the blog; it is as an
                      extension of the blog that I chose to create it.
                      So I never asked myself whether I would create a
                      physical products label or a net-label. In fact, I
                      plan to do physical releases in the future.<br>
                      <br>
                      Physical products and digital files are often
                      thought in opposition, as if they were two
                      competing formats. This is partly true, since we
                      have seen a significant decrease in sales of
                      physical formats since the emergence of digital
                      formats, but I would like to point out that this
                      observation is only partial, particularly in the
                      specific field of industrial/post-industrial and
                      experimental music. First of all, I think that the
                      multiplication of blogs that have exhumed past
                      cassettes and records since the 2000s has largely
                      contributed to the renewed interest in these
                      products and, paradoxically, to the taste for the
                      physical formats, limited editions, special
                      packaging, etc. Moreover, I think that the fact
                      that tapes or records are available online does
                      not prevent, and sometimes even helps, that they
                      are sold in physical formats. I will take the only
                      example of the French band Vox Populi! Its
                      founder, Axel Kyrou, has always been grateful to
                      blogs for excavating his music at a time when he
                      thought it had been forgotten and no one was
                      interested in it anymore. Under his encouragement,
                      many Vox Populi! albums are available online on
                      blogs or net-labels, especially Nostalgie de la
                      Boue, which does not prevent them from being
                      re-released in physical formats and still selling
                      very well. There is therefore sometimes a certain
                      complementarity between physical and digital
                      formats.<br>
                      <br>
                      We can think of the relationship between these two
                      formats at another level, that of the taste for
                      the material object, in particular concerning the
                      physical format that most closely resembles the
                      digital format: the cassette. To some extent, the
                      relationship to digital files is comparable to the
                      relationship to cassettes on which vinyl records
                      (or other tapes) were recorded and then erased to
                      record others. Likely, there is a similarity at
                      the level of labels. The physical products to
                      which net-releases most closely resemble are
                      cassettes: with very few means, recordings of
                      unknown artists made at home with limited
                      equipment can be released. However, there are also
                      important differences, the main one being the
                      dematerialization of music. As cheap as it was,
                      the tape had a physical existence and usually took
                      place in a collection of material objects like it,
                      alongside vinyl records and CDs. In addition, it
                      was often produced in limited editions: it was
                      therefore not only an object, but also a rare
                      object, sometimes with special packaging, which
                      reinforced the value given to it by its owner.
                      This dimension is obviously absent from the
                      relationship to digital files: it is much more
                      difficult to develop a fetishistic or
                      materialistic attachment to a collection of
                      digital files than to a collection of cassettes,
                      vinyl records or CDs! It is also that the files
                      are perishable: you can easily lose an entire
                      collection of digital files in the single crash of
                      a hard disk for example. This strongly modifies
                      the relationship to the musical medium: the
                      relationship to the perishable digital files is
                      finally closer to the relationship to streaming
                      listening than to the relationship to the
                      collection of cassettes, vinyl records or CDs.<br>
                      Moreover, by moving from the cassette to the
                      digital file, we lost part of the exchange
                      dimension and especially the materiality of these
                      exchanges that passed through the postal mail. But
                      there is still an important dimension of exchange
                      related to digital files, for example between
                      people who make rips and those who download them,
                      whether on peer-to-peer sites or on blogs.
                      However, this dimension is also lost as the supply
                      increases. All you have to do now is connect to
                      the Internet and help yourself. On this point, the
                      situation has changed a lot in recent years, even
                      if we confine ourselves to the field of
                      industrial/post-industrial and experimental music:
                      a decade ago, we could try to get all the rips of
                      cassettes or vinyl records available on
                      peer-to-peer sites or on blogs, but today it has
                      become almost impossible because there are so
                      many.<br>

                      <font color="#aaaabb">SWCZ: I find interesting for
                        the compilations you indicate on your blog how
                        the digital tracks can be burned onto CDRs. How
                        do you see the CDR format in the realm of being
                        a digital-only label?</font><br>
                      <br>
                      TK: When online releases and net-labels appeared
                      in the 2000s, it was the time when I made many
                      copies of CDs on CDrs. As a result, I also
                      systematically burned on CDrs everything I
                      downloaded from the Internet, and I was annoyed
                      when the releases were not designed to fit
                      properly on a CDr. It was following this
                      experience that I organized the compilation “Rien
                      Ni Personne” so that it could be burned on CDrs.
                      It was also because I thought the quality of the
                      compilation would have deserved it to be released
                      in physical format, and that was one way to get
                      closer to it.<br>
                      <br>
                      That said, I don’t like the CDr format, because it
                      is too often of poor quality. Similarly, although
                      I am very attached to the cassettes of the past, I
                      do not like the revival of the cassette and I
                      never buy recent releases in this format. I would
                      love to and I plan to transform Nostalgie de la
                      Boue into a physical products label, but it would
                      only be to release CDs and vinyls.<br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#aaaabb">SWCZ: The label features
                        well-established and lesser known artists, with
                        a broad range of sound and types of releases
                        described on the website as “experimental and
                        unconventional musics”. Some of my personal
                        favorites are the albums by Mireille Kyrou/Vox
                        Populi!, Bourbonese Qualk (live), German Army,
                        the two compilations released on the label
                        titled “Rien Ni Personne - a french
                        compilation”, vols. I and II+III (comprising 91
                        and 184 tracks respectively!) and the latest
                        release by Stradivarius. What are some of your
                        personal favorite releases on Nostalgie de la

                        terms of working together with artists and
                        bringing their music out on the label?</font><br>
                      <br>
                      TK: There are several releases that I like very
                      much, but the one I prefer is undoubtedly the
                      compilation of French artists “Rien Ni Personne”,
                      which is also the one that has been the most
                      successful. As I said earlier, after creating the
                      net-label, I gradually wanted to release artists
                      belonging to more recent generations, but I
                      realized that I was lost in the current scene,
                      including that of my own country, France. So I
                      thought I would design a compilation that would
                      provide a panorama of this scene. I had in mind
                      some cassette compilations dedicated to France in
                      the 1980s and I wanted to make a compilation in
                      the same spirit, but with the current artists and
                      means. The compilation was designed almost
                      exclusively using Facebook. First, I sent
                      invitations to artists I knew or identified, many
                      of whom were from the 1980s generation. Then,
                      little by little, I tried to get to know and
                      contact other, younger artists, and I realized
                      that there was a considerable amount of them.
                      That’s how I finally ended up with 91 tracks. But
                      the story didn’t stop there, because many of the
                      artists I had identified didn’t contribute to the
                      first volume of the compilation and, after it was
                      completed and released, I discovered many more. So
                      I decided to launch a second volume that gathered
                      more than twice as many tracks as the first
                      volume! I decided to stop there so as not to tire
                      the public. However, I then made another
                      compilation dedicated to the city of Bordeaux
                      alone, and again I was very surprised by the large
                      number of contributors. This shows that the number
                      of people working today in the field of
                      post-industrial or experimental music is much
                      higher than in the 1980s or 1990s. This is why the
                      market for physical products has become saturated
                      and net-labels have developed in parallel, and
                      again why we must avoid thinking of these two
                      categories in opposition.<br>

                    <font color="#33ffff">CREATE GROOVE WITH DELAY </font>-
                    use any delay effect to add polyrhythmic exotic
                    grooves to a rhythm or riff. Try to find a good
                    wet/dry mix on the delay so it doesn't encompass the
                    whole sound but leaves enough of the original sound
                    spectrum. Its good to add some kind of EQ before the
                    delay maybe -&gt;&nbsp; cut the low EQ a bit to
                    taste - so it doesn't get too muddy and the focus
                    will be on the mids and highs i.e. the snares,
                    hihats, percussion instead of the
                    bass&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; drum. If you are using a
                    hardware mixer use the AUX send to feed the delay
                    and let it come back on a channel with EQ (and not
                    the 'normal' AUX return as some mixers have -
                    letting it return to a normal channel gives you the
                    power to EQ and even sweep the effected signal!)<br>
                    Set the delay time manually with the sync off to get
                    weirder exotic grooves. PRO TIP: Try using 2
                    different delays on different rhythmic elements.<br>

                      LONGER CABLE </font>- You need a long cable but
                    you don't have one - use two<br>
                    shorter ones and connect them together with a pedal
                    with the bypass <br>
                    on. Don't worry about degrading the sound quality,
                    the music you are making most probably doesn't need
                    any hifi sound anyways <br>

                      CREATE OLD SCHOOL AMIGA TRACKER SOUND:</font> why
                    do a lot of those old early 1990s techno jungle rave
                    records sound so choppy and tight? Because a lot of
                    them were made on 'Tracker' sequencers on Amiga and
                    PC computers. <br>
                    An Amiga tracker only had 4 channels of audio and
                    each channel was monophonic. If you would play the
                    next sample on the same channel the other one got
                    cut off by the new one - instant choppy staccato
                    rhythms and melodies!&nbsp; Its easy to emulate this
                    sound in your sampler. In SIMPLER,the Ableton
                    sampler, for example - set the polyphony to 1 so the
                    channel becomes monophonic - use the glide function
                    to make interesting portamento effects.<br>

                      FILTER EFFECTS <font color="#33ddff">ON SAMPLER
                        WITHOUT FILTER</font></font><font
                      color="#33ddff"> </font>- a little l33t trick
                    people used to do back in the day on trackers on the
                    Amiga computer to make acid riffs: You need a sample
                    of a squelchy acid/synth sound with a strong filter
                    envelope - starting with a sharp&nbsp; high filter
                    cut off and a gradually slope to a calmer lower
                    filter setting like "Pwiiioooooooaauaauauauauauauau"
                    or almost any acidic synth/synth bass sound. Now the
                    Amiga didn't have a filter (YEAHYEAH it did but not
                    a real time tweakable filter) but you could get
                    crazy filter effects by just changing the starting
                    point of the sample - the later it starts the less
                    cut off you hear - the earlier you start it the
                    higher the cut off! If you change the starting point
                    on every note played you get this unique filter
                    tweak effect. This is easily emulated with any
                    sampler, For example, in Ableton's SIMPLER just set
                    a controller on the START parameter. Set the sampler
                    polyphony to 1 and turn the glide effect on for more
                    FREAKINESS! I would also do this on my Roland MKS100
                    sampler just tweaking the alpha dial while set on
                    the sample starting point function.<br>

                      <br>
                      _---_ <br>
                      <br>
                      Puck Schot, aka Acidic Male, is a captivating
                      all-around multimedia artist who writes gripping
                      poetry. Through impulsively writing thoughts
                      fragmentarily and by visually reflecting on that,
                      narratives of fictive character and alter egos
                      start existing. Her work results in confessional
                      texts, essays, audio and video(-installations).
                      Often she also runs self-written and found texts
                      through an algorithm that mixes the text into a
                      new one. in video work, she often pays actors from
                      online gig websites for a few dollars. Thus, a
                      stranger performs a quite violent, confessional
                      and fragmented script (sometimes run through an
                      algorithm) on their webcams for her. Schot
                      produces and live-performs music under the name
                      Acidic Male and is part of the all-female group
                      called “North Sea Wolf Pack”. Together with RJM
                      Vanderheyden she performs under “Vot’ress”. They
                      experiment with synthesis and modulation, creating
                      ambient soundscapes and distortion, layered with
                      spoken word and found-footage. Their performance
                      loosely embraces Shakespeare’s ‘A Midsummer
                      Night’s Dream’ and the role of Robin “Puck”
                      Goodfellow, a demonic mischievous sprite. Themes
                      involve loss of identity, fecundity and elvish
                      tricks as they explore elements of literary
                      sadism.

                      <br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#ddffff">1. Could you tell us a few
                        words about this poem "Untitled" and about
                        either the context in which you wrote
                        it/processes used/inspirations for it?<br>
                      </font><br>
                      I wrote part of it when I was traveling through
                      the U.S.: in this part of my travel I was staying
                      in the middle of nowhere in the desert on historic
                      route 66. There's only a gas station every 80-100
                      kilometers or so and you can basically drive as
                      fast as you like, there is no one to check it or
                      even care about it. In night time, there are no
                      lights. On these ghost-like roads I had to deal
                      with a sort of solitude, even though all the
                      people I had encountered were very friendly, but
                      there were not many of them. 90 percent of the
                      time was spent alone, in my motel, in nature or in
                      my car. I felt that, in such a gigantic empty
                      surrounding, there is something "haunting" about
                      it: kind of a reversed claustrophobia, an "allergy
                      for silent places". It made me involuntarily
                      reflect on some things I felt were "buried" and
                      linked it to the direct surroundings. I edited the
                      notes I took when I came back home again, in my
                      safe surroundings and performed them with some
                      music. It all felt like a good reflection of
                      thoughts and notes I took, sometimes in the
                      adrenaline of driving 200 km per hour, sometimes
                      walking alone through prickly bushes in nighttime,
                      sometimes being in my cheesy-looking motel which
                      had Dinosaur statues outside and advertised on
                      having "paranormal activities".<br>

                      <font color="#ddffff">2. In addition to your
                        audio-visual, conceptual and literary works, you
                        produce and perform under the artist names
                        "Acidic Male" and as part of the duo "Vot'ress"
                        along with RJM Vanderheyden. Could you tell us a
                        bit about these new projects? </font><br>
                      <br>
                      I have graduated from art school in 2016, mainly
                      making video work within installations of objects
                      and drawings. At a certain point during art
                      school, I wanted to include loosely written notes
                      and poems from my chaotic sketch book in these
                      videos and in some experimental spoken word
                      performances. I did voice-overs over some footage
                      I had shot in the woods for example or performed
                      texts, trapping myself physically in a space. I
                      was, for some reason, always afraid to have others
                      perform my texts: would they lose the intimacy I
                      intended to bring across? My friend pointed out
                      this website to me, wherein people advertised to
                      do voice-overs for just a few dollars. I decided I
                      wanted a male voice for a video including a poem.
                      The seller then asked me if I wanted audio or
                      video: "let's try the video", I thought. I liked
                      the result so much, because these sellers are
                      usually focused on making static, commercial
                      advertisements, as they are now perform a bedroom
                      text of mine. <br>
                      <br>
                      I kept doing this and enjoying this, this poetry
                      exchange including a monetary factor. Yet, I
                      wanted to re-find my balance of distancing myself
                      from poetry and "Othering", script-writing using
                      mostly using male actors, and of directly
                      expressing something confessional, my personal
                      hauntologies. I found that this could best be
                      expressed directly in text and by saying the text
                      or singing it. With that, I started making music,
                      which somehow felt less staged than a finalized
                      video work for example. Sound seemed closer to a
                      sensory feeling for me and already had a big
                      admiration for a few experimental female music
                      artists like Puce Mary, Swan Meat and COUCOU
                      CHLOE. Some of my friends told me I have an
                      interesting voice and should do more with it, I
                      tried to overcome my shyness in using it and...
                      Acidic Male started to develop in the beginning of
                      2019, she is still in the middle of that actually.
                      :-) I bought a Korg MS-20 and a mic, recorded some
                      stuff and added drum patterns and other samples in
                      Fruity Loops. This is mainly still how I work,
                      although I have some other fun stuff like 2
                      Volca's and a TR-8 and like to use samples of
                      nature sounds, which I also want to start
                      recording more myself.<br>
                      <br>
                      Vot'ress came very naturally: RJM Vanderheyden and
                      me wanted to collaborate on something for a long
                      time, seen our mutual interests. She introduced me
                      to a lot of interesting music by going to live
                      performances together, which also later became a
                      motivation for me to try to make music myself. We
                      always wanted to make something reflecting on "A
                      Midsummer Night's Dream" by Shakespeare. We
                      started analyzing the text and found macabre
                      details, mostly from character Robin "Puck"
                      Goodfellow: a demonic, mischievous sprite. We
                      mixed some of the texts together with our own
                      poetry and with Bataille's "The Language of
                      Flowers" and made a performance consisting of ASMR
                      sounds, nature sounds, synthesis and vocals. <br>
                      <br>
                      I'd say even though some projects are more
                      "finished", some more conceptual and some more
                      free, some using "Othering", some being a direct
                      expression, all these projects are interwoven in
                      some way, all link to the core of searching for a
                      spatial poetic creation. <br>

                      <font color="#ddffff">3. Could you tell us what is

                      My newest experimental film, in which I paid a
                      porn production company to perform my sexless
                      script, will be shown again during Art Rotterdam
                      in February 2020, accompanied by an installation
                      of printed flags. I hope to make more music (live
                      and on record) and really make it evolve,
                      ambient/noise style but also more rhythmical, like
                      a good techno track. :-) Also Venderstrooik
                      remixed a track of mine, to be released on a
                      mixtape on cassette soon. <br>
                      Recently, I started DJ-ing as well, my next gig
                      will be on NYE in The Grey Space in Den Haag, The
                      Netherlands.<br>
                      There's also some writing projects coming up, but
                      they are still under the radar.<br>

                      'Muzikaal Dobbelspel' is Dutch for 'musical dice
                      game'. Its more known in its German translation:
                      'Musikalisches Würfelspiel. This is an old
                      technique to generate 'random music' using dice.
                      In 18th century sophisticated upperclass 'tout
                      monde' hip music circles this was allllll the rage
                      - akin to something like using artificial
                      intelligence in music today. Although without the
                      need for a degree in advanced compositional
                      machine intelligence&nbsp; - you just need two
                      dice and a notepad!<br>
                      <br>
                      There were lots of different variations of
                      'Muzikale Dobbelspellen' (that is the Dutch
                      plural) - using different systems. Mostly they
                      were pieces of'preset' note patterns which you
                      added together according to the numbers you cast
                      with the dice. Once you did this a bunch of times
                      you ended up with a 'random' waltz out of nowhere.<br>
                      <br>
                      Here is a little Muzikaal Dobbelspel to make a
                      monophonic melody in four different exotic scales:
                      <br>
                      <br>
                      Determine a scale from the list below (Venusian,
                      Centaurian, Vulcanian, Andromedian) and throw 2
                      dice. Now add the two cast numbers together -
                      check which note that sum represents from the list
                      below and write it down. Now do this 16 times (or
                      12 or whatever your measure is). If you cast a
                      'nix' you skip a position in the measure - this
                      nix can either be a tie or a rest - you can throw
                      one dice again to decide this. If you cast 1,2,3
                      its a tie - 4,5,6 its a rest.</font><br>

                      you have a total of 8, if you chose the Vulcanian

                      <br>
                      if you threw 2 and 1 the total will be 3, if you
                      chose the Andromedian scale there will be no note
                      and you skip a position in the measure. Throw one
                      dice again - if you cast 5 the empty position will
                      be a rest.<br>

                      Make the dorkiest hobby even dorkier -&gt; Here
                      are some makeshift ideas for 'off the path'
                      modular system modules. You can make these pretty
                      much without any knowledge of electronics - just a
                      bit of handy work and a rudimentary understanding
                      of how audio travels through wires is all you
                      need! A fun thing to do during the holidays with
                      the whole family or all by yourself if you are
                      lucky enough to celebrate the yuletide times in
                      solitude.<br>

                      First of all, contact mics are your friend - also
                      known as transducers and Piezo microphones they
                      are rudimentary microphones that you can attach to
                      anything. Stick them to anything you like and you
                      can record it, going beyond a normal microphone,
                      focusing more on the unheard side of things. The
                      cool thing is that they are super cheap, can be
                      bought for 20 cents and the possibilities are
                      endless. <a

                    <font color="#33ddff">Furthermore you just need some
                      empty module boxes/panels (just make them yourself
                      out of cardboard, thin wood etc.) , some tape, a
                      drill, jack in &amp; outputs, wires, if you are a
                      bit pro some solder and a soldering iron and some
                      other crap. Mostly these are just some starting
                      point ideas to get you inspired...you are smart
                      enough to improvise, experiment and above all
                      figure it out....don't be afraid because its
                      electronics! These module ideas are all "passive"
                      when it comes down to power - they don't need any
                      connection to the modular case's power supply.</font><br>

                      What you need:<br>
                      - A flexible plastic/silicone/rubber tube you can
                      blow into - not too&nbsp;&nbsp; thick, it can be
                      as long as you want, maybe minimum of 30
                      centimeters - 60 centimeters will give you some
                      more suppleness<br>
                      - Some kind of liquid proof container to put the
                      liquid in <br>
                      - Contact mic<br>
                      - 1xAudio outputs &amp; wires<br>
                      - Liquid - can be just water - different types of
                      viscosity will give<br>
                      &nbsp; different sounds, but just normal water is
                      probably the best.<br>

                      era mini MP3 players and put it in a module and
                      you will have nice little 'sampler'. Saw a
                      rectangular opening on the front panel so you can
                      place your MP3 behind it. Use some tape or slats

                      <br>
                      Cut a mini jack cable at one end and attach it
                      from the MP3 players headphone output to an audio
                      output on the front panel. Use some kind of
                      inverted USB converter cable as a USB port on the
                      front - so you can conveniently load new 'samples'
                      into the device but also charge the player with
                      power - if the player uses such a system, else you

                          ACIDHALL - a combination of digital
                          dub/dancehall, mostly from the 'golden era'
                          1985 - 1990, with acid basslines. As far as I
                          know, the origins of ACIDHALL can be traced to
                          ACID RAIN RECORDS a label from New York, who
                          released a bunch of dancehall related&nbsp;
                          7"s in the late 90s till mid 2000's. The label
                          started with some mediocre releases using the
                          <font color="#eeaaee">"1999 riddimm" - a
                            simple dancehall rhythm based around the
                            stabby chords of prince's 1999 - The 'prince
                            hommage' is also visible on the label's logo
                            which uses the Purple Rain font. In the year
                            2000 they </font></font><font

                          with a simple rough TR606 beat. It was raw,
                          uncompromised, trippy and above all
                          irresistible -&nbsp; sounding like it wouldn't
                          be out of place on an underground sewage
                          Beverly Hills 808303 or Acid Planet release.
                          Curiously the producer of this slab of raw
                          acid was Salaam Redi </font><font

                          The Fugees and would go on to record Amy

                          its raw smudgey grooves it quickly became a

                          Coast/The Hague electro-nix scene. Mixed with
                          slower electro &amp; italo, "cosmic", memphis
                          rap &amp; underground hiphop music. As there
                          basically was only 1 acidhall riddim, the

                          into the scene - mostly edits/remixes of
                          golden era digital dancehall/dub tracks
                          layered with acid basslines. Often the beat is
                          fattened up too with slow electro rhythms
                          preferably from the Roland TR606, 707 but also

                          works...there are no rules! The sound is

                            computer with software - a 303 emulator like
                            ABL, Phosycon or that ancient sweet luscious

                      <font color="#fdd8ff">Where are you from? Where
                        did it all began???</font><br>
                      I am from Switzerland, I grew up in a village in
                      the hills surrounding Basel. It was a typical slow
                      countryside life, a great place to grow up as a
                      kid, spending lots of time outdoors and in nature,
                      I had a beautiful time. but as a youth it started
                      to feel quite insular and confining, there seemed
                      to be all these invisible rules and expectations,
                      it used to drive me off the wall and eventually
                      away.<br>
                      in 1998 I came to London to study art, after Swiss
                      bliss I embraced the chaos and roughness of the
                      big city a lot, I was so ready for some exposure
                      and turmoil. it felt liberating to dive into the
                      mess and multitude of things and people here, it
                      inspired me, fueled my creativity.<br>
                      <br>
                      When and how I started to make music is one long
                      and bendy road!<br>
                      Music has been a great friend and magic companion
                      of mine since I can remember. It has always played
                      an essential part in my life as some sort of
                      emotional conductor or equalizer or absorber or
                      pusher.<br>
                      At home my mum played a lot of music, mostly
                      classical, but also stuff like french chanson,
                      gospel, jazz, rock'n'roll, we did a lot of dancing
                      and singing, it was fun. Music was this exciting
                      mood maker and allowed you to let go of a lot of
                      energy.<br>
                      <br>
                      I played all the various recorders as a kid, I
                      still love wind instruments, sometimes I use them
                      over some hardcore electronic beats. In my early
                      teens I picked up the drums. I was blown away by
                      an African drummer performing at my school and
                      started begging my parents for a drum kit. it felt
                      immensely liberating making all that noise, its
                      also very physical, tires you out, perfect for
                      frustrated teenagers!<br>
                      Though as a teenager I became more of a consumer
                      of music and passionate dancer at the local disco
                      and i recorded lots of tapes for myself and my
                      friends.<br>
                      <br>
                      I first started recording tapes when I won a
                      beautiful blue Phillipps walkman at some
                      competition, I was about 9, it also had a radio
                      and record function, so I spent my time zapping
                      through radio stations, capturing stuff I liked..<br>
                      <br>
                      Meanwhile my uncles introduced me to their old
                      blues records, the Beatles and sixties/ seventies
                      stuff, which really awakened my hunger for more
                      music, finding led zeppelin and black sabbath in
                      their record collection was so thrilling, opening
                      up whole new horizons. One night my godfather
                      brought me along to an L7 gig at Frison in
                      Fribourg where he worked as a promoter. I was
                      about 12, I wore my favorite turquoise jumper,
                      everyone else was dressed in black leather, I felt
                      a fool but forgot about it as soon as they plugged
                      in their guitar. After that I was totally
                      infected. I got into alternative rock, punk, hip
                      hop, grunge, at some point came Nirvana, for whom
                      I still have big love...<br>
                      and only in 98 when i came to London was I hit by
                      electronic music!<br>
                      <br>
                      By then I only experienced the shit side of really
                      depressing Eurotrash euphoric trance bullshit
                      raves in Switzerland, I was quite horrified and
                      put off by the music and people alike.<br>
                      <br>
                      In art college in London I met a few great people
                      and one of them was my friend tony who introduced
                      me to electronic music and all that has been going
                      on since the early 90ies that I managed to totally
                      miss. THAT WAS A BLAST! He had loads of records
                      and kept them coming, every week a few new ones,
                      it was like a wonderland! He had lots of Rephlex
                      releases, I couldn't believe all these crazy
                      sounds, it was really so inspiring, empowering and
                      enchanting to find out about all this music, like
                      everything Aphex, Bogdan Raczynski, DMX krew,
                      Squarepusher, two lone swordsmen, and so on.. then
                      a lot of Bunker and Clone releases, it was a whole
                      new world opening up, the mood and attitude of
                      these labels and releases felt so refreshing,
                      serious and dark yet humorous and playful.<br>
                      <br>
                      I guess it was much in tune with where I arrived
                      creatively or how I felt in relation to the world.
                      there was also a lot of secrecy and myth that came
                      with a new record, often I didn't know which
                      artist I was playing, I picked records by the
                      label and cover and it usually worked..<br>
                      at this point if you allow a little hommage to you
                      Danny, you elated so many of our nights :-) as
                      Legowelt and other aliases which I didn't know
                      were you until later, like Gladio, Slave of rome
                      or Squadra blanco, Night of the Illuminati, two
                      massive favourites of mine, have listened to these
                      records so many times, literally played them to
                      death!<br>
                      <br>
                      Huge was also the discovery of Drexciya. the music
                      and all politics and myth that came with it. the
                      sound of Drexciya seemed so precise, consistent
                      and otherworldly, I studied it endlessly, it
                      surely shaped my understanding of electronic music
                      a lot. I am evidently a great admirer of
                      Dopplereffekt, Arpanet and everything Gerald
                      Donald, his output is always full of love and
                      integrity. To continue on the Drexciyan path, <br>
                      <br>
                      Another massive influence is DJ stingray, I've
                      been following him ever since I found out about
                      him, which was only in 2008, I went to see him at
                      a bangface weekender and it felt like homecoming.
                      his DJ sets are one of a kind, its truly a cyborg
                      battlefield, he is always on the attack, focused,
                      frontline, going for the kill, no messing about,
                      love him.<br>
                      in terms of starting to make electronic music
                      myself I felt really encouraged by Aphex's
                      fearlessness and fuckoff take on to sound, music,
                      experimentation, creativity. It wasn't about
                      perfection and production but he was unleashing
                      some proper hardcore energies that felt totally
                      relevant and alive.<br>
                      <br>
                      The idea i could produce any worthwhile music only
                      grew slowly by coming across certain musicians or
                      music that made me understand it could be quite
                      simple once you are in the right place knowing
                      what it is that you want to let out, all you got
                      to do is open the gates and let it go.<br>
                      one of them was Raymond Scott, Manhattan Research
                      inc, I listened to this album inside out and
                      upside down, was super inspired by all these
                      playful tunes and felt ok I gotta make some
                      electronic music myself. a friend of mine gave me
                      logic and so I started on software and laptop.
                      This felt great in the beginning, so much freedom
                      and possibilities, I had a lot of fun creating a
                      lot tunes, it for sure sharpened my skills and
                      ears and ideas of what I wanted to produce, but
                      really only in 2104 when I finally bought my first
                      drum machine I was set free. Set free by the volca
                      beats ;-)<br>
                      <br>
                      I was kind of intimidated by tech and gear as I
                      wasn't familiar with any of it, I am definitely
                      not a tech head plus these things were expensive.<br>
                      I've been playing and recording music with with my
                      friend Howard around that time, we played
                      improvised, ritualistic electro acoustic stuff as
                      dpm357x.<br>
                      <br>
                      He taught me a lot about making music and
                      improvisation and helped me to overcome my fear of
                      performing. and he had these Monotribes, and was
                      playing around with them and had great fun and
                      produced amazing whacky sounds and I was just oh
                      my god I need to have this, it felt like a fun toy
                      with big sound. this is the long and winding story
                      to my first drum machine.<br>
                      <br>
                      Can you tell me about your studio set up a little
                      if you want my set up of machines was gradually
                      growing from that moment on, and continuously is.
                      I already had a line 6 pod guitar pedal that I
                      used for effects on my voice, I connected it to
                      the volca which gave the drums great warmth and
                      distortion. I don't really like clean sounds
                      straight from the box, they need to be somewhat
                      beaten up, morphed, whacked and lived in..<br>
                      <br>
                      Because the Volcas were so affordable and I
                      realised it would be useful to have a synth to go
                      with my drum machine I bought the Volca keys soon
                      after, then the kick. I researched for a multi
                      effects pedal that is easy to use with all effects
                      accessible and physically available on the board,
                      that has an extensive delay and reverb section,
                      and I arrived at the boss me50, I had this in mind
                      for voice and synth. while the little volca keys
                      has its limits played alone, through the me50 it
                      can turn into a big and wonderful dreamy synth.<br>
                      <br>
                      This was basically my setup for my first album
                      expanding arid zones.<br>
                      Volca beats and kick through the line 6 guitar
                      pod. Volca keys through the boss me50. This album
                      is very much me learning how to work these
                      machines and finally being able to create the
                      sounds I wanted. I am playing the machines like
                      instruments, I like real time playing and
                      tweaking, improvising and jamming. I got no
                      computer or midi controller in my setup. It is
                      very primitive and intuitive. I record my sessions
                      into a zoom stereo recording from my mixer output,
                      then cut out the bits I like. that's it, not much
                      of an after production.<br>
                      <br>
                      After expanding arid zones I was ready for some
                      slightly more complex machines. still low budget,
                      and still no hidden menus..<br>
                      I am a rhythm person, always starting with a beat,
                      I was looking for a drum machine that is more than
                      the kick, snare, clap, etc setup, but lets you
                      create your own synth voices, and I arrived at the
                      korg Electribe ER1 rhythm synthesizer, this
                      machine is perfect for me, it is so versatile,
                      generous and playful, really love it. I needed a
                      better synthesizer and it seemed very obvious to
                      go for sister electribe EA1, which has a gentle
                      and sensitive soul with the ability to unleash
                      powerful basses. The two make a great couple.<br>
                      <br>
                      I was in need of 2 more effect pedals, for the ER1
                      I could imagine nothing more suited than the boss
                      me50b bass to give it extra depth and base, and I
                      added the line 6 bass pod to the family for the
                      volca drum which became more and more my backup/
                      supporting subbass kick.<br>
                      This was more or less the setup for my second
                      album, FORMING TROPICAL CYCLONE. volca beats/ kick
                      through line 6 bass pod/ guitar pod<br>
                      electribe er1 through boss me50b bass pedal -&gt;
                      electribe ea1 through boss me50 guitar pedal -&gt;
                      voice through bossme50 guitar pedal.<br>
                      <br>
                      I keep mixing it all up as well, small changes in
                      setup and connections can bring whole new sounds,
                      and I am in constant search for new possibilities.<br>
                      <br>
                      Recently I have built a small modular unit in a
                      bastl instruments workshop, modular brings a whole
                      lot of exciting new prospects, though its also
                      expensive and like to keep it lofi. for sure I
                      want to improve my basic way of recording from
                      stereo to multitrack, so I have a bit more of a
                      chance to edit and mix my jams. looking at zoom
                      r16 at the moment, any recommendations welcome!<br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#ffffff">what is Global Warming
                        records?</font><br>
                      in 2014 I started global warming records label to
                      release my own music. after years of me, my
                      laptop, a pair of headphones and no connections to
                      the music scene I wanted to take things into my
                      own hands and get the music out there somehow. I
                      was planning a compilation of my stuff, but right
                      at this time Howard and me recorded quite a few
                      dpm357x sessions and this felt really urgent and
                      alive. it was real and important and fun. Also to
                      start the label on a collaboration was so helpful
                      and<br>
                      encouraging, taking off some pressure, and so
                      happened the first release, GREENLAND'S MELTING
                      GLACIERS.<br>
                      <br>
                      The idea and name global warming records came
                      about as I wanted to guide peoples attention
                      towards something I felt was urgent and needs
                      consideration and action. force the thought, the
                      fact, the expression and words GLOBAL WARMING
                      RECORDS into peoples mouths and minds. say it,
                      think about it, be aware.. I'm not sure if that
                      works, but it doesn't really matter, its an ethos,
                      a focus, a context that I can use creatively, I
                      will not let myself be limited by it, I am not
                      Greta Thunberg rallying for this cause, its more a
                      subverted and subtle core to my music and visual
                      work.<br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#ffffff">Striking is your use of the
                        echo/delay effect, almost used as an instrument

                        and transpose it in time and perhaps even
                        dimension - What echo box are you using and do
                        you have any, for lack of a better word,
                        metaphysical<br>
                        ideas on echo/delay?<br>
                      </font>The biggest delay/ echo effects I get on
                      the boss me50. And youre right I use it kind of
                      like an instrument adding a whole new sphere which
                      is uncontrolled mad and very explosive. With voice
                      through microphone I get feedback which I like to
                      blow up but also try to tame and use to my
                      advantage. what is most exciting is that you never
                      quite know what will happen, of course its
                      possible to apply a controlled delay, but to push
                      it into dangerzone I find exhilarating, as it
                      turns into a violent stormwind but will slowly
                      settle into some random crazy sounds that you can
                      try accentuate and suddenly you have this new
                      voice reaching out over a sea of noise, I am
                      always trying to find this voice.<br>
                      <br>
                      Similar with the synth, delay and reverb allows me
                      to change the mood of a song drastically, there
                      you got a beautiful, warm synthline, you can
                      reverb it into heavenly spheres then get a sudden
                      eruption of a hundred synthlines shouting back at
                      you in a powerful surge to take over everything
                      else...<br>
                      <br>
                      In the drums/ rhythm section I generally use
                      delays more precise and controlled, like creating
                      variations on a theme. switching between these
                      themes already gives me a basic structure for a
                      track. on the volca beats I use stutter a lot, its
                      such a generous function to play around with,
                      opening up endless combinations of time and delay.<br>
                      <br>
                      Generally I like the drums to be reliable, a
                      sturdy backbone to the rest of the mess I will
                      create ;) the drums I work far more with various
                      filter/ distortion/ eq effects, keeping the beat
                      solid but changing the sound and tone, which can
                      be all tight and contained, or harsh and brutal,
                      bass driven or muffled, whatever works.<br>
                      <br>
                      Effects pedals are essential in the sound I want
                      to create. they allow me to shape and mould sounds
                      kind of like using clay for a sculpture. I am not
                      sure if i'm dodging the metaphysical question
                      here? echo equals infinite space, its spiralling
                      away picking up speed and volume exponentially,
                      like a big fuck off wave that you want to surf,
                      you have to throw yourself in there before you can
                      ride the thing and come out on top of it. Sun Ra
                      comes to mind, what do you do when you know that
                      you know, that you know that you're wrong, you got
                      to face the music, you got to listen to the cosmic
                      song... I think Sun Ra was teaching me some of the
                      most valuable lessons in terms of approaching/
                      playing music, as in be free, let go, enter the
                      zone, and go infinite space.<br>
                      <br>
                      <font color="#ffffff">You are also an artist with
                        stuff in galleries?</font><br>
                      yes I am also a visual artist. I would say my
                      physical work and music share the same approach
                      and origin, they arrive from the same place, its
                      almost one and the same thing to me, except one is
                      taking on form that you can touch, and the other
                      is taking off into spiritual spheres. The two
                      together create a wholesome balance, while the
                      music transports me into this infinite space, to
                      work materials, to touch and handle things is
                      bringing me back to the ground, its earthing me.
                      Often they are intertwined. In every art show I
                      bring in music, like a soundtrack to the scene, it
                      allows me to support a mood and channel peoples
                      attention. <br>
                      <br>
                      As for the music I like to deliver my records in
                      handmade packaging, I stamp the labels and spray
                      the sleeves, its a crazy amount of work but I feel
                      the aesthetics of the handmade object underlines
                      the spirit of the music. As a visual artist I work
                      with found materials mostly, trash that I find. I
                      like objects that have a history, a story to tell,
                      broken, weatherbeaten stuff appeals to me much
                      more than shiny new things. <br>
                      <br>
                      The shore of the Thames in london is a great place
                      to roam for raw materials, I pick up a lot of
                      animal bones dating back a few hundred years to
                      times when there were markets by the thames and
                      butchers threw their waste in the river. These
                      bones have washed around the river for so long,
                      each and every one is a perfect sculpture in its
                      own right, they are very powerful objects. The
                      beaches are scattered with anything from ancient
                      to modern trash, finding and picking my bits feels
                      like harvesting the crops, its very meditative,
                      you got a few hours at low tide to roam around and
                      bring home what you can carry. My studio is full
                      objects I find. I like to give them a new chance,
                      new life, new storyline, combine them into fresh
                      formations.<br>
                      <br>
                      I always hang my works, it always seemed the most
                      obvious thing to do, so they can freely turn and
                      move in the wind. I often treat my sculptures like
                      creatures or characters emerging from some sort of
                      forgotten places. I enjoy creating fictions and
                      storylines for an exhibition, its like outlining a
                      playground that I can explore creatively, and is
                      also really useful in informing aesthetic
                      decisions, so everything can fall into place
                      naturally.<br>

                      Synchronicity" so you can pretend you are an
                      expert on this intriguing subject...<br>
                      <br>
                      By: Darea L. Spoors<br>
                      <br>
                      Most people have experienced so-called
                      “supernatural” occurrences, experiences which
                      cannot be explained by causality but are
                      nonetheless meaningful coincidences or of what
                      Carl Jung would term “acausal orderedness”. Jung’s
                      proposed theory – synchronicity – serves as a
                      powerful lens through such occurrences may be
                      explained. He famously laid down one utterance of
                      his theory on synchronicity in a short essay
                      published in 1952 titled “Synchronizität als sein
                      Prinzip akausaler Zusammenhänge”.<br>
                      <br>
                      In the first part of the book, Jung defines the
                      concept of synchronicity as an acausal meaningful
                      coincidence. A-causality is the main
                      characteristic of synchronicity. Jung goes on to
                      provide some illustrations and examples of
                      synchronicity from his own and his patients'
                      lives. Jung proceeds to detail the historical and
                      philosophical foundations of his theory. He
                      discusses that ancient, medieval and modern
                      philosophers have already conceptualized unitarian
                      theories of the world, which accommodate his
                      theory on synchronicity. He goes on discussing the
                      theories of thinkers such as Lao-Tze (Tao),
                      Keppler (geometry, mathematics), and Leibniz
                      (monads, “pre- established harmony”).</font><br>
                    <br>
                    <font color="#33ddff">Jung concludes that there is a
                      necessary pre-existing, a priori
                      “harmony”&nbsp;&nbsp; or what he has termed
                      “absolute knowledge”. Synchronicity confirms the
                      existence of this pre-existing order.<br>
                      According to Jung, synchronicity must be added to
                      the “trial of classical physics” (space, time and
                      causality), which would then become a tetrad (see
                      fig. 1, below). Adding this fourth category would
                      allow us to understand synchronistic phenomena, as
                      a special class of natural events. According to
                      Jung, synchronicity is transcendental and it is
                      difficult to conceptualize it (because it is
                      contained in an “irrepresentable space-time
                      continuum”) and it often feels like “magic”. We
                      must not, according to Jung, however, think of
                      every event whose cause is unknown as “causeless”.</font><br>

                    &nbsp;<br>
                    <font color="#33ddff">To conclude, Jung describes a
                      near-death example of one of his patients who was
                      in coma as a result of child birth. She could
                      perceive herself and the hospital room as
                      observing from above. Jung uses this as an example
                      to explain that in such circumstances of
                      unconsciousness (ie. coma) perceptions and acts of
                      judgment continue to exist. The sympathetic
                      (nervous) system can produce thoughts and
                      perception, and is a potential carrier of psychic
                      functions.<br>
                      <br>
                      According to Jung, skepticism towards ESP
                      (extrasensory perception) is unjustified, both
                      from a scientific (ie. scientific theories are
                      constantly being refuted) and a human/instinctive
                      point of view (ie. humans have prayed to gods and
                      deities for millennia). His theory and his
                      criticism of the “sovereign rule” of causality of
                      our time remain relevant today.<br>

                        <br>
                        Those are the words Albert Ostman would say when
                        anyone would contend the veracity of his story.
                        A Canadian-Swedish construction worker and
                        lumberjack, Albert had one of Canada’s first
                        Bigfoot encounters, and perhaps the world’s
                        first recorded Bigfoot abduction (with romantic
                        undertones).<br>
                        <br>
                        I’m adapting Albert’s story into a short film,
                        and below is a short excerpt from the
                        screenplay. Albert is on vacation, hiking and
                        camping in the remote wilderness of coastal
                        British Columbia...<br>
                        <br>
                        EXT. FOREST - NIGHT<br>
                        <br>
                        Faintly illuminated by campfire, ALBERT
                        struggles to stay awake in his oversized
                        sleeping bag. He keeps one hand on his rifle,
                        determined to confront whatever animal ransacked
                        his campsite the night before. But the day was
                        long, and the flickering of the fire is
                        hypnotic. His eyelids blink and stay closed. He
                        immediately starts snoring, then lets out a loud
                        nocturnal fart. Sound of HEAVY FOOTSTEPS and
                        BREATHING.<br>
                        <br>
                        FADE TO BLACK:<br>
                        <br>
                        INT. SLEEPING BAG - NIGHT<br>
                        <br>
                        CUT TO:<br>
                        <br>
                        Albert wakes with a jolt. Sounds are muffled.
                        The sensation of being jostled around. It’s
                        nearly too dark to see. He fumbles for his
                        lighter, finds it, and flicks it on. We are in
                        Albert’s POV: the flame reveals we are tightly
                        contorted in the bottom of his sleeping bag,
                        along with his backpack and rifle. The whole bag
                        is lurching from side to side, in a slow,
                        constant, swinging motion. The sound of deep,
                        long breaths and wide footsteps. Perhaps we’re
                        slung over the back of a horse? Albert’s
                        breathing quickens and his eyes dart around,
                        edging towards panic. By force of will, he slows
                        his breathing and closes his eyes.<br>
                        <br>
                        EXT. FOREST - NIGHT (HOURS LATER)<br>
                        <br>
                        A vista of the wilderness. Dense douglas firs
                        blanket fog-ringed coastal mountain tops
                        stretching out in the distance. The blue glow of
                        dawn emerges with the chirping of sparrows.<br>
                        <br>
                        INT. SLEEPING BAG - DAWN<br>
                        <br>
                        Back to Albert’s POV: The swinging, footsteps
                        and breathing stop. We/Albert/the bag are
                        suddenly dropped and slam against the ground.<br>
                        Albert tries to stifle a YELP of pain. SILENCE
                        and stillness for a beat.<br>
                        He crawls towards the exit of the bag. Blue
                        morning light floods our POV.<br>
                        <br>
                        EXT. VALLEY - DAY<br>
                        <br>
                        Albert attempts to stand up out of the bag, but
                        his legs have lost circulation from the night of
                        contortion. He sits back and rubs them, blinking
                        to adjust his eyes to the day light. Directly in
                        front of him is a narrow valley, of which he is
                        on the floor. There are steep, cliff-like walls
                        all around it. He hears a low GRUNT and some
                        CHITTERING from behind him. He swings 180
                        degrees around. Five meters away, blocking the
                        exit of the valley, stand four, large,
                        fur-covered “people” staring back at him.<br>

                        These must be the Sasquatch the First Nations
                        man warned him about. He takes it all in. Their
                        heads are almost human, but with wider jaws and
                        narrower foreheads that slant up &amp; back, and
                        faces covered in soft, dark fur. The OLD MAN is
                        the largest, about 8 feet tall with a big hump
                        on his back. The OLD WOMAN is half a foot
                        shorter, with sagging fur-covered breasts, wide
                        hips, and a dour disposition. The SON is 7 feet
                        and powerfully built, flashing Albert what looks
                        like a grin. The DAUGHTER is slightly smaller,
                        more femininely proportioned, with a wisp of
                        hair on her forehead that resemble bangs. Albert
                        and her lock eyes before she shyly turns away.
                        After a beat of silence, Albert musters the
                        courage to<br>
                        speak.</font><br>

                      An autobiographical text by Koernaad Bramenboter
                      aka Mr. Maximal<br>

                      <br>
                      Once upon a time when Gabberhouse reigned supreme
                      and global warming was just a rumour, yours truly
                      found himself in a posh villa, together with
                      around 20 acquaintances and a large kettle of
                      mushroom tea.<br>
                      This tea was only part of what would be consumed
                      at the party that evening. I for myself would keep
                      it minimalistic and stick to mushrooms and
                      cigarettes. Earlier, someone had told me that
                      mushrooms and chemicals don’t combine.&nbsp; I had
                      taken that advice to heart. <br>
                      The party - fueled by alcohol and hardcore beats -
                      started raging. I, myself started feeling
                      increasingly hot and uncomfortable. I unzipped the
                      front of my expensive yet low quality tracksuit.
                      That did not cool me off.<br>
                      <br>
                      I found that it was not the temperature or even
                      the music that made me feel weird. It was the
                      energy of the people in the room. I seemed to be
                      at another “wavelength”, for lack of a better
                      word. I decided I needed to get away.&nbsp; So I
                      rolled under the couch I had been sitting on.<br>
                      Now, to the reader this might seem like a weird
                      move. And it was. But I hope fellow psychonauts
                      will understand. Weird or not, It was indeed a
                      very bad idea.&nbsp; People started kneeling down
                      to look what I was doing. This made me more
                      uncomfortable. Soon I also started feeling
                      claustrophobic. What was supposed to be a fun
                      party full of psychoactive experimentation had
                      taken a turn for the worse.&nbsp; I rolled back
                      from under the couch, got up, zipped up my
                      tracksuit and went outside.<br>
                      <br>
                      Before me was a well-kept lawn with a number of
                      large trees around it. I lit a cigarette and
                      picked a spot under a large pine tree. As I got
                      comfortable under the tree, I felt my body calming
                      down. I rested my head in the soft grass. I took a
                      drag of my cigarette. I looked up to the sky and
                      stars trough the tree’s branches. <br>
                      And that’s when I saw it. <br>
                      It was perfection. Every branch, twig and needle
                      was in exactly the right spot. The only spot they
                      ever could be. Perfectly arranged to nature’s
                      universal rule. The Fibonacci Sequence</font><br>

                    Another little article coming all the way from Tyler

                    Workflow Tip: Finish Tracks While You Game!<br>
                    <br>
                    Look y'all. You know your studio is a multipurpose
                    space. With all that computing power it only makes
                    sense to optimize its functionality. You know you
                    want to live in it, why not give it the touches that
                    never make you want to leave.<br>
                    <br>
                    For instance, sometimes after a little mix practice
                    you need something to do while you review what you
                    did. Or perhaps you have a bunch of long synth
                    passes to record and your computer is like, "Man, we
                    aren't gonna be doin' much else now are we?"<br>
                    <br>
                    Well I know you've got an ancient TV out there, get
                    yourself an old game system, and chill while you
                    bring works of art further into completion!
                    Seriously! You could be letting whatever crazy
                    synthesizer madness mix-down your doing happen and
                    play some dope 32 bit obscuro classics like Shodai
                    Nekketsu Kouha Kunio Kun. The perfect solution to
                    your pick up and play beat down needs. All you have
                    to do is go find your little cousin's Wii he doesn't
                    care about anymore or fix yourself up a Raspberry Pi
                    and you are in business. Might as well go ahead and
                    record some more loops off those machines cause
                    you're vibin in Funkotron with ToeJam &amp; Earl.
                    Look how much got recorded! And how those two
                    inspire your next track while you're racking up
                    credits running B-Specs in Gran Turismo when you
                    need to shift back into studio mode!<br>
                    <br>
                    One of my personal favorites is the Wu Tang "Shaolin
                    Style" for the PS1. I mean, its almost like

                      (you'll be making a lot of them). In all
                      seriousness, I'm going to lay out three tips that
                      I've learned over the last 10 years or so,
                      hopefully in a way you can understand, but who
                      knows how well this is going to go.<br>
                      <br>
                      I wrote my first script when I was 17 after I just
                      saw David Lynch's Lost Highway. As much of a
                      cliché as that is, I can assure you that the idea
                      was pretty crap and the ending was rushed because
                      I gave up. The story was about a man who after
                      suffering an accidentally high dose of some
                      designer hallucinogenic drug, ended up having his
                      mind almost entirely wiped and was forced to try
                      and piece his life back together in a clinic in
                      the English countryside. Whilst there he meets a
                      strange woman hiding a big secret. I remember
                      clearly writing a farmer character who I insited
                      was to be played by a man of Chinese descent and
                      that he must speak with a Bristolian accent. I
                      think it was because I never met a man of Chinese
                      descent that had a Bristolian accent and I really
                      wanted to know what that was like, though
                      certainly in the last 22 years I didn't really try
                      outside of writing it down once when I was young
                      and ignorant. Years later I took the script for
                      the movie 'Die Hard' and then replaced all the
                      classic moments and dialogue with my own story.
                      That one was about a retired police officer having
                      to take a job as security for a Wall Street firm,
                      only to discover that the stock brokers were
                      literally blood drinking reptiles. It's called
                      'Gloves Off' and it's stupid. Amongst my friends
                      whenever we were wondering what we were going to
                      do with our lives one of us would always say
                      "There's always Gloves Off!" - and we'd laugh at
                      the absurdity of my dumb Sci-Fi Horror Die Hard
                      rip-off (though secretly I want it to be a real
                      movie because I have a feeling it would be great).<br>
                      I give these examples to show that I went through
                      the phases of not knowing anything to someone who
                      read some books and asked some people who actually
                      do this for a living what to do. Now I'm passing
                      it onto you... Here goes<br>
                      <br>
                      TIP 1) Saving The Cat, or Just Making Sure The Cat
                      Is Ok<br>
                      Save The Cat is a book on screenwriting I don't
                      really recommend. The author is obsessed with
                      Legally Blonde, a film I've never seen but am 99%
                      sure I probably wouldn't like. You've seen movies
                      you know how they go. Don't let anyone tell you
                      otherwise. Confidence is half the battle, you've
                      got to get your deranged brain-wrongs onto the
                      page and you don't want to be thinking about Reece
                      Witherspoon's sassy sup plot friend because that's
                      what that weirdo said you had to do.<br>
                      <br>
                      TIP 2) The Lie Of The Three Act Structure<br>
                      Technically yes, it is three acts, but Act 2 is
                      split in half and you want to really think about
                      what happens in the middle. Really you just need 5
                      major plot points by my thinking.<br>
                      Start<br>
                      Act 2<br>
                      Middle<br>
                      Act 3<br>
                      End<br>
                      If you want to be poetic make the start and end
                      connect somehow. If you want to be SUPER poetic
                      make the middle connect also. Like a triangle.
                      I've found that thinking about these things in
                      advance makes the whole story way easier to plot
                      out. Getting stuff done is the name of the game
                      here, unless the game is backgammon, in which case
                      you'll have to show me the rules again because
                      I've forgotten. Same goes for cribbage.<br>
                      <br>
                      TIP 3) It's Your Idea Dummy!<br>
                      Make a list of all the cool shit you want to
                      happen in the story. Write them on post it notes
                      and put them on your wall or write it on your
                      computator. Once it's all laid out in an order
                      that makes sense to you. Start filling in the
                      blanks of how to get from A to B.<br>
                      "But how Papa Maiovvi?"<br>
                      Alright fine. These are plot points off the top of
                      my head for something totally random<br>
                      Freddi wakes up in a bathtub of eyeballs<br>
                      Freddi kills a guy for whistling too loudly<br>
                      Police are owned by Dr Randy<br>
                      Freddi makes love to all the ladies<br>
                      Freddi makes soup for the kids and saves the rec
                      centre from being closed by "the man"<br>
                      Ok, So already I can see (from having seen a movie
                      before) that we need to swap things around so they
                      form a story that makes sense<br>
                      Freddi makes love to all the ladies<br>
                      Freddi kills a guy for whistling too loudly<br>
                      Freddi wakes up in a bathtub of eyeballs<br>
                      Police are owned by Dr Randy<br>
                      Freddi makes soup for the kids and saves the rec
                      centre from being closed by "the man"<br>
                      So what we have here is a guy named Freddi who is
                      a total ladies man, I've already cast Jason
                      Statham in the role. Freddi is a bad boy and has a
                      temper. So how does he get to killing a guy?<br>
                      Freddi after a hard day womanising heads to his
                      favourite bar to see his friends<br>
                      1A. At the bar his friend gives him some bad news
                      which he doesn't take well<br>
                      1B. A drunk guy comes in acting obnoxiously<br>
                      1C. Freddi yells at him asking him to stop
                      whistling. The Drunk man does not<br>
                      1D. Freddi, annoyed by bad news loses his temper<br>
                      Freddi murders the drunk and his friends advise
                      him to lay low for a while<br>
                      2A. But the Drunk worked for Dr Randy a wealthy
                      plastic surgeon turned drug lord<br>
                      You see how easy that was! You're probably already
                      imagining how Jason Statham, I mean Freddi gets to
                      that bathtub of eyeballs!<br>
                      Now it's your turn! Let your mind get real
                      upsetting.<br>
                      <br>
                      TIP 3) Setting A Schedule<br>
                      You've got all your plot points, you know where
                      this bad boy is heading and it's time to write.
                      But how much should you write? Do you get a bunch
                      of amphetamines and a bottle of scotch and bang it
                      out? I'd advise against it but be your own freak.
                      A screenwriter friend told me that if he gets 5
                      pages done a day then he's happy. 5 pages of a
                      screenplay is really not a lot if you think about
                      it. When I'm really cooking I can get 8 to 10
                      done. But then my brain is tired and all I want to
                      do is drink a beer and watch CSI or something. The
                      main point here is: 5 pages a day means in 20 days
                      you'll have a completed screenplay. This is not
                      unachievable. Hollywood wants to make you think
                      you can't make your dreams come true, but that
                      celebrity you're going to have an affair with is
                      waiting for your call. It is your duty to make
                      this happen. For all of us.<br>
                      <br>
                      So there we have it. You should be filling your
                      idea wall with all those terrible thoughts you've
                      had in the last 5 years on little post it notes.
                      Moving them around and beginning to write about
                      fantastical things that never really happened. Or
                      maybe they did. I don't know. I'm not you. You're
                      you and don't you forget it.<br>
                      I hope you get your film made and it's a nice
                      experience. Even if they re-write it, you wrote a
                      movie when all the other chumps were twiddling
                      their thumbs. Well done.<br>
                      Good luck and happy writing!<br>
                      PS. Don't ask me how to actually sell a script
                      because I genuinely have no idea.</font><br>

                        sounds like a foul word but using it in such a
                        fashion (as in 'you {body}amp;amp;@#*&amp;$*@
                        PANSPERMOID') would only be counter effective as
                        it would mean you blasphemise the person as an
                        galactic alien - a godlike entity that is the
                        source of LIFE. All that in view of the fact
                        that Panspermia means the following (from
                        Wikipedia):<br>
                        <br>
                        "Panspermia (from Ancient Greek πᾶν (pan),
                        meaning 'all', and σπέρμα (sperma), meaning
                        'seed') is the hypothesis that life exists
                        throughout the Universe, distributed by space
                        dust, meteoroids,asteroids, comets, planetoids
                        and also by spacecraft carrying unintended
                        contamination by microorganisms.Distribution may
                        have occurred spanning galaxies, and so may not
                        be restricted to the limited scale of solar
                        systems."<br>

                      Some reviews of stuff that came in 2019:<br>
                      <br>
                      Lake Haze - Glitching Dreams (2019)<br>
                      <font color="#ff8888">Lake Haze, aka Gonçalo
                        Salgado's newest album on UK based E-Beamz label
                        is one-of-a-kind release. According to E-Beamz,
                        the album "ushers a new phase in the label's
                        output", and marks the beginning of a new
                        direction which the release perfectly
                        encapsulates. Fast breakbeats, trenchant TB303
                        lines, intertwined with slow, undulating and
                        pretty melodies. Personal favorites are
                        "Plant_Dust", which indeed start with 'dusty'
                        sounding drums, soon joined by a divine melody,
                        as well as Radius_X34, an otherworldly track
                        filled with wonder and agitation.<br>
                        For fans of: EOD, Aphex Twin, Ross
                        154/Newworldaquarium, and Drexciya.<br>

                      Langwar - Langwar (2019)<br>
                      <font color="#ff8888">Recorded in 3 days in
                        Friesland, Dutch industrial trio Langwar
                        released a must-listen musically picturesque
                        album. Shadowy and dim, with Jessie Hoefnagel's
                        (Stekkerdoos) luminous voice. Industrial
                        soundscapes, spoken word, reminiscent of an
                        interbellum orchestra made up of ghosts stuck in
                        an abandoned resonant theatre. We hope to hear
                        more of Langwar in 2020!&nbsp; <br>

                      No Hay Banda Label (Rotterdam/Utrecht)<br>
                      <font color="#ff8888">For the past year,
                        Rotterdam/Utrecht based No Hay Banda, run by
                        Koen Bouman, has been brewing fresh releases by
                        inviting artists to curate their personal
                        musical takes on cult classic films. This
                        merging of sound and cult cinema has resulted in
                        unconventional radio mixes which are then
                        released on limited edition cassette tapes. One
                        artist who has appeared so far is RJM
                        VanderHeyden, who re-scored softcore/arthouse
                        classic Contes Immoraux (Borowczyk, 1973), a
                        "four tales display of sexual transgression
                        throughout the ages told in reverse order". The
                        label also releases a catalogue of imaginative
                        scores to never-to-be-made films, the first
                        instalment of which is called "Vier Rivieren"
                        ("four rivers"), produced by Ipanema, a new
                        project by Rotterdam-based musician Bram Nigten.<br>

                    <br>
                    <br>
                    <font color="#00bb00">A short story by Ian Alloway<br>
                      <br>
                      The ventilator had broken last week, and the
                      association, with all its resources tied up in
                      production, wasn't going to fix it until things
                      slowed down.<br>
                      <br>
                      But, if production was going to be efficient,
                      didn’t the humans have to breathe?<br>
                      <br>
                      A pillar of light slanted across the floor of the
                      facility. It made its way towards a small cluster
                      of workstations. It was the seventh day in a row
                      that this had happened. The light continued its
                      course and eventually shimmered on one particular
                      man’s desk. Was the source solar or was it sodium
                      halide, the man wondered?<br>
                      <br>
                      What time was it? Had he really been here seven
                      days? <br>
                      <br>
                      He paused from his labor and stood up, partly from
                      curiosity and partly from rebellion. He quietly
                      made his way towards the glowing wave. <br>
                      <br>
                      As he climbed the stairs, he could discern that it
                      was a mixture of both artificial and natural
                      light. Even with his curiosity satisfied, he still
                      continued to move towards the source of
                      illumination.<br>
                      <br>
                      And there it was: a hole in the wall with the
                      silhouette of a frozen “x”. Visible swells of heat
                      twisted around its edges and rushed through the
                      openings. <br>
                      <br>
                      He would take some time at the portal today. The
                      fan had rested, and so he would do the same.
                      Having already assembled three components this
                      afternoon, a small break shouldn’t reflect in the
                      final shift count. <br>
                      <br>
                      He could still place his head out the hole,
                      COULDN'T HE? <br>
                      <br>
                      He did.<br>
                      <br>
                      The warmth from inside the facility gathered at
                      the portal. As the thermal cyclone bore its way
                      through the hole, there was no reprieve from the
                      temperature, not even outside the walls. <br>
                      <br>
                      There were at least twenty places he would rather
                      be at this moment; numerous paradises. But those
                      thoughts should stop, he insisted. He needed to
                      focus on… the shift.<br>
                      <br>
                      But then… the swaying began and its allure was
                      potent. The movement continued…<br>
                      <br>
                      A BREEZY HAMMOCK ON A REMOTE ISLAND. He sat up,
                      interrupting the rhythm of his netted swing. He
                      wondered if he could reach the summit of the
                      solitary hill that stood in the center of the
                      land. He would have a clean vista from the peak.
                      Maybe a soft cyan vision would spread upon the
                      horizon and through it he could see everything. <br>
                      <br>
                      What route should he take? <br>
                      <br>
                      He stood and began to move. Perhaps passing
                      through the sentient forest might invoke the
                      vision again. Something rare had haunted him with
                      pleasure since his first encounter, and he
                      believed he would be happy forever if he could
                      just have the same experience again. <br>
                      <br>
                      So he trudged along the way. And, deep in the
                      chlorophyll distance of his path, he wondered if,
                      with his mind, or perhaps with his hands, he could
                      release all of the pain inside all of the stucco
                      buildings in the world. <br>
                      <br>
                      The fronds touched him as he persisted. They
                      seemed to ask so many things of him. Who was he?
                      What did he want? Why was he there? Did he like
                      them? Would he stay?<br>
                      <br>
                      He was uncomfortable. Confusion grew. He paused on
                      his way to the crest. He was hungry. He would
                      start a fire to cook -to cook -to cook -to cook
                      what? <br>
                      <br>
                      Who was he kidding? He needed the markets, the
                      cans of food. He wasn't going to hunt, kill, clean
                      and cook a wild pig. <br>
                      <br>
                      HE NEEDED THIS PLACE. This place right HERE.<br>
                      <br>
                      This relentless industry granted his survival.
                      What would he be without it? A rat on pavement?<br>
                      <br>
                      He believed in honest wages; he was no pirate. He
                      should get back to the department, they had
                      probably already noticed that he was gone.<br>
                      <br>
                      He took one last gasp into the portal. Fumes
                      floated from a machine in the alley below. As he
                      turned away, its acrid flavor was as bitter as the
                      air inside the walls.<br>
