Mutant Sounds

a must for rapoon/zf fans!

the whale songs are corny though.

where was the lundsten love when i started my lundsten thread?

Ralph Lundsten S/D

i knew not a thing of lundsten until the mutant sounds posts!
recent hits for me is "paga" by the paga group super zeuhl;
jean phillipe goude - ex weidorje keyboardist doing wiggly zeuhly mahavishnu/radiophonical instrumentalisms;
and the toubabou thing which at least in parts is mean zeuhl funk if a bit daytime tv / cop show.
and had it anyway but the saqqara dogs is the nuts if you ignore a coupla embarrassing tracks. kinda krauty pinkfloydish but punky / middle eastern thing.
and expo - expo is the cat's whiskers!
and "name" - henry kaiser cubistpop beefhearty & strangely shrubsalike.
there's too much !! (no complaint!)

that Paga album has been killing me. It really might as well be another Weidorje record.

also, I think at some point mutant sounds posted the goude/oliver cole record from 1975, which I like better than drones. it's maybe jazzier, but I love hearing those guys play. also check out the jacques thollot record they posted the other day -- hopefully they will post cinq hops or resurrgence, but all of them are good chamberish/vaguely zuehlish (or maybe just french) jazz

Artemyev record of Synthi 100 things was initially disappointing compared to the ANS synth pieces he made for the Tarkovsky soundtracks, but by the end of the record the cheesy 70's synth epics had grown on me. more sub-Vangelis / Jarre / Tomita than weird drones.

the Francesco Curra is interesting, not sure how many times I'm going to come back to it, but a tightly edited / cut-together suite of noises & tiny song fragments. much stranger than Battiato's Fetus though just as well recorded, some parts like a far more coherent Tazartes.

the two Derome / Lussier (Granules) records definitely have their proggy moments, this is what Skeleton Crew should have been like

other than that, still listening to Catherine Ribiero a lot, especially the 2Bis one

why does my computer not understand that i already installed a file manager for .rar? :(

Catherine Ribeiro link?? cant find that shit

bob snoom, steensland actually reminds me of thinking plague/5uus/science group stuff a bit

stuffit has no problem with .rar files.

Catherine Ribiero is one of two things I ever actually go back to.

they posted it, be careful with 'Uaxuctum'

also chaki: check the jan / feb archives for Ribeiro

weird, i was just looking for these on slsk the other day.

Francisco - Cosmic Beam Experience, 1976

two short but well produced 70's freakfolk songs. and three tracks of massive bowed metal, field recordings, chimes and drums, some moments are up there w/ Garlo's 'Vent De Guitares'

actually it's closer to a 70's Zoviet-France that keeps getting derailed by folky new age interludes

oo ive been meaning to track that album down because of skots sweet smoke mix. sounds more like taj mahal travellers / early ash ra than zf though.

amplified i-beam. seriously.

Someone's got that Shub Niggurath tape up on ebay now.

"why has this not been reissued? Probably because this world is too busy promoting modern bullshit and modern bullshit artist. The coolest shit in the past, present, and future will always come from the underground."

Thanx sexyDancer!

don't know about "poppier" but they at least have drum machines

For poppier the Henri Texier albums that have been posted recently definitely fit the bill.

Don't know about the repulsive beat front though.

this has got to be the poppiest record ever posted on mutant sounds

http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.com/2009/01/yapoos-keikakulp1987japan.html

and it's fucking amazing fyi

if you like cluster ii and/or m goettsching, the quad live set is 4 u.

Very good in a scuzzy downtempo depressed kind of way:

ye olde filesharing blog era coming to a close it seems

http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-re-ups-and-downs-of-file-sharing.html

"There's been a reason for the extra long span of time since my last posts went up: I've needed time to weigh my options and determine if this shebang is still worth keeping afloat."

R.I.P. Mutant Sounds. Definitely a force for good in getting great unheard music to the ears it deserves.

There have to have been at large number of reissues spawned by M.S., no?

New posts will continue on the roughly bi-monthly schedule that they've been arriving at for some time

it's not the end of the world, he's still going to continue posting new stuff! he's just saying he's no longer going to spend all of his spare time re-upping past files that are casualties in his neverending battle with rapidshare.

nope. RIP. http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.it/2013/03/the-end-of-era.html

oh. RIP.

:(

such an incredible blog

now begins true black market mp3 era

Reborn!

http://mutant-sounds.blogspot.com/2013/03/mutant-sounds-reborn.html

Huzzah!

Interesting move. I hope it works.

i feel for the "sharing community". i will say a prayer and hope for the best!
