Hey Storm Bugs!!
Great interview in Sound Projector; love both the LPs on VoD and the Fusetron one.

we aim to please :)

Just signed up for the '08 industrial set. Now i've got $35 to live off of for the next week, thx VOD. Just couldn't pass it up, last years releases were tempting, but this year they've outdone themselves. I don't see what they could possibly do in '09 to top this.

I guess now we wait... $530 poorer and wait wait wait.

are there tracklistings for the severed heads and spk? i can't seem to find them. would like to know before i buy.

nothing yet. I was curious as well. 6lp's+3x7"s of pre'83 spk is all i had to hear.

Printed pillowcase!!? Fuck the merzcar!

6lp's+3x7"s of pre'83 spk is all i had to hear.

Yeah, me too. It says "1979-1983" on the box.

btw mp3 blog dualtrack has a mindboggling assortment of live SPK gigs.

Yea i discovered that entire webring of industrial/etc. blogs last year. Found tons of new (read old) wonderful stuff. It inspired me to start a couple of my own (white ward and shock corridor).

VOD finally updated the shop. Here's the spk info:

"Besides the official Tape-Releases such as Wars of Islam, From Science to Ritual, at The Crypt, and Last Attempt at Paradise, this Box-Set also includes Live recordings from their first concert in Sydney in 79, the Heaven Concert London in 80, the Brickwerkz-Concert in 82, the SO36 Concert in Berlin plus a few more live-documents. Members will recieve their edition with a limited 3x7“wooden Box-Set containing their first 3 Side Effect 7“ from 1979 plus a Post-card-Set with photographies by SPK-Member Sinan Revell"

Interesting. can't wait to see the box and shirt. Unless someone beats me to it i'll probably do the discogs entry and take a bunch of pictures.

it's the 3x7" box that would clinch it for me but sadly i have missed this ear's membership allocation.

sinan revell = swoon! i have been in awe of her since i saw them in '84.

omg just what I was hoping for

extra bonus points for the "From Science To Ritual" tape, all studio stuff.

stirmonster, you can generally get the subscription extras on an individual basis as a non-subscriber if you get in early (at a small extra cost). you should email the label.

do a couple medical experiments at your local hospital or university! they pay well for a few hours work.

I should take my own advice.

waiting waiting waiting argh, didn't reckon how painful it would be to wait for these things to show up.

from the VOD site, lol:

5 NEW RELEASES OUT BY END APRIL (30th of APRIL, NOT MID APRIL!!)

PLEASE NOTE: IT TAKES 2-3 WEEKS TO HANDLE ALL ORDERS AND PACKAGES SO DO NOT WRITE MAILS ABOUT TRACKINGNUMBER OR DELIVERY-STATUS, I WILL NOT ANSWER THOSE TIME-INTENSIVE MAILS IN ORDER TO SPEED-UP THE PACKAGE-MAILOUT.

also stirmonster, apparently the subscriber edition comes with an offer for me to be able to buy another whole box set (with the 7" box), so email me if you still want/need one.

amazing

just noticed your earlier post, sleeve. am i too late?????

did you get the SPK box sleeve?

yes

hi folks! this thread is gonna be a lot quieter without ian :(

Stir feel free to email me, I am a little unclear on how it'll work with VOD but it says that 250 copies of the singles box are for distribution. I'll email Frank and ask him. I think you have to buy the whole 6LP box to get it though.

the box does not include From Science To Ritual, all material is live. It DOES have the complete Last Attempt At Paradise tape and (I think) all of the Crypt tape. Only some of the Al's Bar gig. The box is huge and imposing. Large glossy book with a lotta amazing photos, essays, and discography/gigography for the era. The singles come with exact replicas of the original covers as inner sleeves and a VOD design with SPK graphics for the outer sleeves. I can't fit everything into the small wooden box so I had to leave the outer sleeves in the big box.

An unannounced bonus - a small black box called DoppelgANGER by Sinan Revell, containing a series (maybe 40) of glossy photos some of which she appears to have taken, some definitely not. Some are disturbing and they definitely make a point.

Also, a T-shirt.

I wonder who they have do their mastering - these are the only records I've ever head that fit 32-33 minutes on a side and don't sound like shit towards the end.

Haven't dived into the Gerechtigkeits Liga 2LP beyond a couple of tracks.

oh now I see the photo box was announced, I missed that before.

this thread is gonna be a lot quieter without ian :(

I rest my case.

bump for stirmonster

VOD 53: Etant Donnes Tapes 1977-1983 6-Lp-leather-Box with DVD 87,99 €

The Box provides all of Etant Donnes avantgarde-tapes released between 1977 and 1983 on the famous french BainTotal-Label Recordings include in specific: LA VUE, L’OPPOSITION, L'ETOILE AU FRONT, CEUX QU'ON AIME - CE QUE JE HAIS , CINQ PORTES SOUDEES, LES CENTS JOURS CLAIRS. The release also contains a DVD with Live-Peformances of Etant Donnes of the last 3 decades. The music of this Etant Donnés’s first period (1977/1983) boxset describes a rite of passage from mortality to divinity ,a powerful but hidden passion craving beauty and burning love that can be conquered only by another form of secret pain ,that of losing yourself in the cosmos and becoming part of the muddy streams of distant stars .Their soundworks are constructed through the manipulation of natural sounds ,using the variation of velocity and intensity of the recordings ,the cutting and splicing of tape . Etant Donnes ‘s compositions are passionate and brutally communicative ,their music and words are minimalist just like the writings and chants of the religious mystics sufi ,trying to recover the virginity of the words and sounds ,they map new territories and establisch their own personal rules.These first tracks contains all the brutal collages of found sounds investigating nuances of sounds that at times verges upon silence ,the inspired and enraptured meeting with earth’s natural forces ,an hommage to the shadow of night ,to the vineyard and the golden door. In these six first vinyls Etant donnés create their own brand of total audio expression using belches and punches ,their attention is concentrated on the symphonic cacophonie organisation of disorganized found sounds ,using magical rythms only directed by cosmic rules . A perfect way of organising natural sounds that obeys to fundamental principles that everyone wishes to convey ,a music able to tear down walls and to build a universal comprehension ,a cosmic law of beauty ,a magical and alchemical act of poetry.

I don't see what they could possibly do in '09 to top this.

new schedule for '09 AND '10 out now!!! And yeah, they didn´t top '08.

We have 2009-confirmations by:

For the Industrial-Subscription:

Nurse With Wound (3Lp), Vidna Obmana (3Lp), Andrew Liles (3Lp),
Giancarlo Toniutti (3Lp), DDAA (4Lp), Smegma (5Lp)

for the Wave/Minimal-Subscritption: Norma Loy (1Lp), Polyphonic Size
(4Lp) Konstruktvists (1Lp). Die Form/Bain Total (5-Lp), Crash Course
in Science (3Lp), M-Squared-5Lp-Box (Systematics, Scattered Order,
Makers of Dead Travel Fast, ,

Schedule for 2010 is also set with! Programm für 2010 steht auch
schon! Sleep Chamber (4Lp), Rapoon (3Lp), Laibach (5Lp), Voice of Eye
(2Lp), Hunting Lodge (3Lp), Spanish Industrial Box (4Lp), The
Grief(2Lp), Neon (5Lp), Mark Lane(1), GermanWave Box (4Lp) & with
Portion Control (5Lp-Box)

who the hell are Neon? Looks like my bank account will be saved this time around, although the 2010 Industrial looks tasty and I like Portion Control a lot. I'm probably just going to buy the NWW set separately this next year and pass on the rest. Smegma have to be the most overrated of all these bands, I sure don't need 5 LPs worth.

also I would like to say that while the Etant Donnes box LPs were not all that great, the DVD that came with it is super, most of it from the later Touch era that I love unconditionally.

The Nocturnal Emissions is hit and miss, two great records, one poor-sound-quality LP's worth of noisy live gigs, one side of earlier Pump stuff that's OK, and one side of "outtakes" that sound much more like their later work post-Caroline K.

I have 2 Neon mp3s downloaded on those old virtual bootleg comps, New Wave Complex Vo. 4 and A Tribute to Flexipop 09. Not my favorite. The M-Squared/Australian one looks cool.

I got the new NWW box. It's one of the most incredible artefacts I've ever seen. Worth every penny.

NWW box sounds amazing - I'm drooling over the Giancarlo Toniutti box mayself - early cassettes and unrealeased. Also includes notes and data.

2009 stuff is on the way, I'll talk about it when it gets here but I am really psyched about owning a Nurse With Wound greeting card.

I never got around to talking about the last installment of Industrial 2008. The Hermann Nitsch sounded good on paper, but it was a letdown when it arrived for a few reasons. First, it was a reissue of a tape that I already had (Orgelkonzert). Second, the DVD (no doubt hotly anticipated by all Nitsch fans) is a straight shot of his back playing the huge pipe organ for 50+ minutes. Almost a Sex Pistols level "joke's on you" there, augmented by the DVD including TWO TAKES, the rehearsal and the actual performance.

That said, the organ drone pieces are really something and well worth checking out if you like e.g. the Harmoniumwerk series. And the only other released example of this style is the Komposition Fuer Orgel CD from the late 90's.

Third Door From The Left LP has great packaging as usual, the music is pretty obviously an early example of UK people being inspired by TG and Cabaret Voltaire. Not bad, but not memorable either.

Yeah, the NWW greeting card is really something. It made me jump out of my skin when I first opened it b/c there's this sound chip inside that plays a (short) track when you open it.

I got the Nitsch box as well, the fact it was a reissue wasn't a letdown for me as I didn't have the original tape. Anyway even if I had had it I would have bought this monster anyway. Agree the DVD is somewhat underwhelming but it's worth it just to see Nitsch's little legs dangling from the piano stool.

Two (count 'em) Current 93 boxes coming next year, so I'd better start saving now.

can someone explain this to me? i can't make heads or tails of their web site, with the small print and obscure band names.

If the band names are that obscure it's probably not really something that caters to you...

But, it's a small run record label that puts out deluxe box sets of (for want of a better word) 'underground' artists.

Oh and the NWW set is sublime. Have to get a friend to set up some really nice mics in a quiet studio to record the greeting card. Also the first time a box set tshirt is in my size!

i know NWW. are they boxed sets of previously released material?

From the website:

Two hours of their official tape-releases Scrag, Nylon Coverin and Mi Mort, more than one hour of compilation-tracks only released on tape-compilations and not available as Vinyl and more than one hour of their first 2 live performances in 1984 plus a 37 minute 10“ with unreleased material from 1983 plus a one exclusive NWW Track on a Soundchip/Greetingcard

Oh sorry are you asking about the content of the box sets in general or just the NWW one? In general I think the website is pretty clear as to what's in each box. But many of the early ones are sold out now (click the Releases section to see them all, then the Shop section, and if you can't find the one you want in the latter then it's sold out).

I'm interested in the Giancarlo Toniutti box. He's one of those names that I know from various noise/experimental compilations but never quite got round to investigating further. His contribution to the G edition of the recent Zelphabet series is totally absorbing though, so I think I'll have to bite.

if u live in the States I will sell you my near-mint copy of that Toniutti box for a sweet deal, send me a mail thru ILX if you're interested. I'd ship international also but it might add up.

the greeting card track is also included on the bonus 5" single so I will be recording it, fyi (xp).

bah.... I'm in the UK. Is it more of a miss anyhow?

I dunno, it hasn't come yet! I used to have his LP La Mutazione way back in the day.

We might be able to make it work, I'll send you a shipping estimate if it turns out I'm selling.

OK, been working my way through 2009. DDAA cancelled (sounds like they just didn't get back in touch) so instead there will be a 4LP O Yuki Conjugate box which is just about the best thing I can imagine.

Polyphonic Size was a real surprise, don't know how I missed this band. They even had a U.S. EP release! The early (79-80) tracks that showed up on Flexi-Pop comps aren't anywhere near as good as their LP proper from 1982 and the 1981 singles. Lots of duplicate demo versions round it out, but overall a really nice treat, hitting the same sweet spot for me as early Legendary Pink Dots (except from Belgium).

Norma Loy... seems more like Joy Division wannabes than "cold wave", but what do I know. 3 sides only, with some dubious later material. Early stuff is interesting enough though, more aggressive and raw.

I am not a big Andrew Liles fan (no quality control) so I'm not convinced I should listen to that one (as opposed to selling it in mint).

Also haven't gotten to the M Squared box but man do I love The Systematics. Over on the aussie postpunk reissue thread there was high praise.

Vidna Obmana box is killer in the 3LP version, totally different than his later stuff. Very noisy grinding stuff like Esplendor Geometrico with a dash of Whitehouse (sound, not lyrics). Maybe my favorite of the industrial ones aside from the NWW.

Other people have mentioned the staggering greatness of the NWW box and yeah it is quite something. Still going through the 1st 3 tapes which are familiar to me, looking forward to the comp tracks and the unreleased live. The live stuff that was on the Mi-Mort LP is so so good, Stapleton disavows it for some reason and I have no idea why. Hearing that in non-RRR-bootleg-tape quality will be nice. The ten inch is fantastic as well, solo piano twisted and folded.

Here is the first track from the 5" subscriber record, same as the greeting card but obv. better quality.

I am a diehard Konstruktivits/Konstruktivists fan although I think he's lost a bit of edge over time, this double LP is a nice look at his early years. Most of this was taken from tiny self-run tapes from before the 1st LP, but side 4 was released on the Audiofile label as a tape in 1989 I think. I think it's from the same period, regardless.

Giancarlo Toniutti was another nice surprise, I guess I should have given La Mutazione another listen back in the day. Some of it almost reminded me of field recordings. Very primal, dense sense of texture going on in these works. Comes with a gorgeous full color 4x6 (?) softcover book like an exhibit catalog, a first for VOD as far as I know. Still, I gotta sell it to help get the 2010 stuff.

Also haven't gotten to the Crash Course In Science box but it looks awesome and those two EPs are really great. I'm glad they're releasing more stuff that was previously on OOP vinyl, as opposed to just tape reissues.

2010, finalized:

NDUSTRIAL: appr. 20 Records / 20 Schallplatten
Current 93 Vol.1 (3LP), Rapoon (3Lp), Laibach (4Lp), Voice of Eye (2Lp), Hunting Lodge (4Lp), Psychic TV (w. White Stains) (4Lp)

MINIMALSYNTH/WAVE: appr. 24 records / 24 Schallplatten
Current 93 Vol.2 (4Lp), Portion Control (8Lp-Box), Sleep Chamber (4Lp), Experimental Products (1Lp), Mark Lane (2Lp), GermanWave Box (5Lp)

Why split the C93?

So people have to buy both subscriptions - the NWW box was going for more than the whole Industrial subscription for 2009 and I think he's trying to discourage speculation by making it harder to get both C93 sets in the collector-scum subscription versions.

reissues!!!

Absolute Body Control (Untitled) VOD37.1 (reissue) red Vinyl, lmtd.444   14,99 ¤

Reissue of the first Absolute Body Control-Tape which also came as part of the long sold-out Absolute Body Control Vinyl-Box-Set (VOD37). The reissue is in red Vinyl and lmtd. to 444

 
S.P.K.            Dokument III0 – 1979 3x7"Box, lmtd.166                     29,99 ¤

Very limited reissue of the original and ultrarare three 7" released on Side Effects back in 1979. The 7" have also been released in the SPK-Special member-edition in 2008. This reissue comes as grey marbled Box compared to the black Box as in the member-edition. The three 7" are housed in a reprint of the original Side-Effect-Sleeves.

I looked that guy up on Discogs, never heard of him before & it sounds very interesting.

The stuff I've heard is nice warm post-berlin school stuff. Not all that goth/industrial but when it comes to analog electronics the lines can blur really easilly.

I'm really intrigued by this homemade new age-ish electronic stuff released on small/no labels in the early 80s. Enno Velthuys is another dude kind of in that vein, don't know if his stuff has been reissued. And K. Leimur, who has a newish anthology out on Numero group, i believe.

VOD142: BU/BU-MUSIKVERBREITUNG - Recordings 1980-1985
by HEUTE & DER MUSIKANT 4Lp/7inch/Booklet (ltd.400) 64,99 €

After 10 years of planning and intensive artists-convincing, a dream for many collectors of minimal/synth-music and VOD has become reality.
A Vinyl-Box with early 80’s audio formerly released only on super-rare and higly collectable Tapes or on 7inch by two of the most radical Minimal/Synth artists from South-Germany; Rolf Schobert and Georg Alfred Wittner with their projects Heute and Der Musikant (solo-project of Rolf Schobert with his name variations as Der Künftige Musikant, der Lustige Musikant, der Ewinge Musikant).
Almost 4 hours of greatest minimal/synth-based-tunes (2 Lp’s each by Heute and Der Musikant) compiled by VOD from more than 10 different early-80’s Tape-Releases, all released and distributed on their own Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung Label in the early to mid 80’s.
The Label and artists released their very own style of minimal „Präzisionsmusik“, music as unique as Minimal/Synth can only sound, standing the test of time, managing the path between the past and the future („Zwischen Gestern und Morgen“).Emotionally loaded rhythmic straight-forward tracks, with superbly schizophrenic, antagonistic and neurotic lyrics such as „Traurig-Lustig“.

VOD142.1/2 der MUSIKANT Musikantenmusik 1980-1984 2Lp (ltd.100) 25,99 €

DER MUSIKANT is Rolf Schobert from South Germany. His music from the early 80’s and his incredibly rare Tape-Releases are a must-have for every serious collector and lover of Minimal/Synth and/or NDW-Music.
His purely minimal straight-forward powerful synth-sounds in combination with his extraordinary and highy emotional vocals and are so distinct and have a unique character. Rolf is also one half of famous HEUTE together with Georg Alfred Wittner. This limited 2Lp which combines almost all this great track recorded between 80-84 can also be bought as part of a 4Lp-Set called "Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung“.

VOD142.3&/4 HEUTE Präzisionsmusik 1982-1985" 2Lp/7inch (ltd.100) 29,99 €

HEUTE is an ongoing minimal/synth-project run by Georg Alfred Wittner alias GAW and Rolf Schobert alias der Musikant. Since the beginning of the 80’s HEUTE released several remarkable and outstanding Tapes on their own Bu/Bu Musikverbreitungs-Label and on other Labels such as Biber Records, Schrott, Kassetto Fix and Intoleranz! The Latter released their classic Tape “Noch ist Polen nicht verloren from 1983. This limited 2Lp which combines almost all their great track recorded between 82-85 can also be bought as part of a 4Lp-Set called "Bu/Bu Musikverbreitung“.

VOD144: V/A Magnetophonics - Australian Underground Music 1978-1984 7Lp-Box w. large booklet 99,99 Euro (ltd.400) 99,99 €

Massive and comprehensive overview of Australian Underground Music released as Tapes/Cassettes or Vinyl between the late 70s and early to mid 80s.

The first 2 Lps called 'Edge City Broadcasts' are Andrew Lonsdale’s (Browning Mummery) selection of rare and essential tracks representing the great variety and diversity of sounds inside the Australian Underground Music scene of the period.

Lp3 is dedicated to one side each of label recordings from the Lymph Products catalogue (The Horse He's Sick, Cerebral Haemorrhage, Kurt Volentine, Cut With The Kitchen Knife); & the home label of Browning Mummery--Boxmusik Tapes.

Lp4 is compiled by Garry Bradbury (former member of Severed Heads) with focus on bands, projects and collaborations that released on the famous Terse Tapes label such as Wet Taxis, Rhino Rhino, and Pissy Relay Switches.

Lp5 contains the split LP of Hiroshima Chair and a selection of M-Squared-Label related bands such as Systematics, Scattered Order, Ya Ya Choral, and The Makers of the Dead Travel Fast.

Lp6 and Lp7 are fully dedicated to the earliest recordings by Tom Ellard’s Severed Heads, containing the highly collectable LPs 'Clean', 'Ear Bitten' and the 'Side 2' tape.

The 7 LPs are accompanied by a large and extensive 48 page LP-sized booklet with lots of valuable information, insights and photos/scans compiled and written by David Courtney.

A must-have for those that are willing to explore and dig into the universe of Australian Underground Music of the late 70s/early 80s.

Announcement on the website that VOD will be "terminating its mission" next year. Can't say I'm surprised, as the well of early industrial/noise/cassette culture recordings must be running dry by now. Still, I'll miss them, and I treasure the Broken Flag, C93, NWW and Nitsch box sets.

sad but inevitable news. i've always had issues around the exclusivity of their releases but overall it has been an amazing label that has introduced me to so much music i'd never have heard otherwise.

already eyeing up the :z*f: and Come Org sets

wowwww

YESSSSSS

TWO DAUGHTERS!

Excited for the ZF.

So, did i imagine it or did he announce VoD was all over at some point, and then changed his mind?

he announced a year-long break for 2018 and said he'd return in a slightly different form

during the break he was working on this:

https://www.tape-mag.com/

ah, ok. thanks. i'd seen tape-mag but didn't realise it was him. i'm not complaining but the form isn't very different.

no subscriptions this time around I think?

from Frank:

You can surely already reserve and preorder a copy, just let me know address and Shirt-SIze and I will get back to you with a price

There is no mailing list anymore after European copyright law had some new rules and me not being able to use my old registered emails.

But I am searching for a way to inform all 2000 soon.

Vol 2 of the awesome :zoviet*france: reissue programme went up earlier today on Frank's site, the art edition box set is sold out already but as of now the regular edition is still available along with some of the individual LPs.

was the art edition box set much more expensive?

no, maybe 30 more euros for like an extra print or something, maybe hand screened box?

(I got the regular version)

ok. thanks.
