The Prisoner (15)

Hello, well the Prisoner series is drawing to a close, just two more to go after this one. I noticed megaupload drawing most of my CPU power, since they 'upgraded' last week, so i wont be using them again. It makes you wonder though, how long it will be before all websites will take that attitude, theoratically it is not such a bad idea, local power requirements of providers take a lot of extra-cooling energy...but i don't think Megaupload had anything green in mind other then the colour of money. 

A word of condolences go out to those who loved Paul Vigay, a civil liberties campaigner 44, a "kind, sincere and patient" and "an extremely clever deep-thinker". In other words, a fly in the ointment of the UK police state, latter describe his death, washing up on shore as unsuspicious..yeah right, he drank too much seawater. I remind you how the police handled the death of David Kelly, a UN investigator who had dared to state Saddam did't have any weapons of mass destruction, he was driven to 'suicide' with a blunt fruitknife two months before his daughters wedding. And the world looked away. At this moment in time those darkhearted black-opps are heaving a field day, with all the attention going to the economic mess created by the powerhungry greedy bastards, you wont come across them floating in the sea...

Terence McKenna - Food Of The Gods (PDF,3mb)

Food of the Gods is a powerful catalyst of intellectual growth for anyone engaged in the pursuit to understand this world. It explores mankind's connection with the Earth as an organism. Terence's speculations on our long lost mutualist relationship with plants has deep implications in science and offers sound insight into modern conditions of human iniquity.

f.i. McKenna postulates

- The loss of the feminine in today's 'dominator' cultures has been further catalyzed by our abuse of plants, drugs, and nature as a whole.

- The psychedelic experience, with its ego dissolving effects represents an important component of the symbiosis of man on Earth.

- The striking similarities in the chemical structures of neurotransmitters in the brain and indole compounds in hallucinogenic plants are no coincidence.

Despite the exhaustively researched and largely scholarly presentation of this work, unfounded criticism ensues when the subject matter stands as evidence in the indictment of many commonly held belief systems. Terrence McKenna didn't write for the amusement of those unfamiliar with the psychedelic experience. It was well within his mental capacity and scholarly abilities to legitimize his work for an audience of intellectual indifference.

Neither was it that the uninitiated were intentionally ignored and his priceless intellectual contribution was meant to be out of reach from common people, in an extension of Huxley's philosophy which he is often mistaken for representing.

Rather, his weakness seems to be his naivety in assuming that people inexperienced with psychedelics would approach his work with the unbiased mindfulness due of a reader of any great work of cultural and spiritual diagnosis.

The fact is that any intelligent, honest approach to this work will inevitably lead one to an intersection with a reality that cannot be negated.Those who are experienced with psychedelics are likely to find in this book truths which they will integrate without hesitance - truths with implications profound enough to dissolve many of the illusions that largely pass as fact.

Tuxedomoon - Ghost Sonata, An Opera Without Words (82 ^ 91mb)


One year ago (Rhotation Sundaze 17,18 & 20) i posted some of Tuxedomoon's (solo) albums Ghost Sonata came from the bonus DVD of their 7707 boxset...

"An opera without words" Tuxedomoon calls the soundtrack to the multi-media theater piece they originally wrote for an Italian arts festival in 1982 "possibly the most psychedelic symphony ever waxed" their record label suggests. True, this ambitious collage of neo-classical strings, electronics, cabaret futura and taped musique concrete isn't even your average post-modernist score. To recap, the members of Tuxedomoon were early Ralph Records associates who relocated to Belgium in 1981 where their increasing Eurocentric forages could thrive in a mutually beneficial climate. Their first album since 1983 to feature the "classic" lineup of Peter Principle, Blaine L Reininger and Steven Brown beside Winston Tong and Bruce Gedulig, The Ghost Sonata is a tint masterpiece of sorts, being an ultra-vivid, rhapsodic updating of film noir atmospherics that was cruelly born 40 years too late to complement Citizen Kane. Although the component parts overlap, The Ghost Sonata leans toward the overridingly elegaic, elegant swell of strings, resonating as if the last string section on earth-the title track, "Les Odalisques" and "Music Number Two" are particularly outstanding - using the electronic enhancements, neo-cocktail jazz passages (on woodwind and piano) and added dialogue to provide a palpable sense of mood/scene-shifting momentum. The net result captures Tuxedomoon's rarified, quixotic melancholy at its peak - like Joy Division and Dead Can Dance, a melancholia that is less comforting than overwhelming, eschewing the comfortable gothic trappings of gloom for gloom's sake. A unique overspill of imagination, through a glass darkly.

Now as it was Valentine's day today a little something for those without...

My Bloody Valentine - Loveless (91 ^ 108mb)

Guitarist/singer Kevin Shields and drummer Colm O'Ciosoig, formed their own band with Dave Conway around the end of 1983. The band was filled out by various members and split up and reformed on several occasions during 1984. Conway on the strength of the band's home recordings, managed to book the band a concert in Holland. The three recruited Conway's then-girlfriend Tina to play keyboards; adopted Conway's suggested name, My Bloody Valentine, for the concert; and moved to Holland. They stayed in Holland for three months before a lack of opportunities and correct documentation meant they had to leave. The band then chose Berlin as their next destination, where they recorded the mini-LP This Is Your Bloody Valentine for Dossier Records. The record failed to have the expected impact, the band left Berlin, returning to Holland briefly before settling in London around the middle of 1985. They were joined by bass player Debbie Googe got a recording deal and the EP, Geek! was released in December of 1985. The band soon began to play on the London gig circuit, but the record failed to make as much of an impact, again.
The next years 2 ep's were released did more gigs, until in 87 singer Dave Conway whose health had deteriorated decided to quit. After some time they managed to match in Bilinda Butcher, under pressure from their label Lazy rec they released 2 self financed EP's, until in 1988 Creation Rec gave them a proper contract with resulted in the EP Feed Me with Your Kiss and their debut album Isn't Anything(1988), which married shimmering guitar distortions to ethereal folk-pop.

The thick, swirling, multi-layered guitar sound developed by My Bloody Valentine would later be termed shoegazer by the British press because of the band's tendency to look down while performing in order to manipulate effect pedals.
The follow-up LP Loveless (1991), the best known album of their career, is generally considered representative of their sound: a distinct blend of warped, effects ridden guitar sounds, ambience, and folk tunes. This time the main vocal duties were taken by Bilinda Butcher. However, some critics viewed the album's heavily processed sound as overly clinical. Shields wrote all the songs, except "Touched", a short instrumental by Colm O'Ciosoig. In 1999 Pitchfork Media declared Loveless to be the greatest album of the 1990s

After signing with Island Records in 1992 , the band spent half a million pounds of Island's money but did not produce another release, and their final recorded song made available for release was a cover of "Map Ref. 41N 93W" by Wire, appearing on Whore: Tribute to Wire in 1995. Debbie Googe left the band to form Snowpony. Colm O'Ciosoig eventually left and recorded an album with Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star. Shields collaborated sporadically with other artists, and is currently remastering My Bloody Valentine's catalogue.

Near The Parenthesis - Of Soft Construction (99mb)

Near The Parenthesis is the alias that Tim Arndt, a San Francisco-based electronic musician, utilizes for his warm electronic creations. While playing conventional instruments like piano and guitar in several bands throughout the years, Tim has continually been grounded in electronic and experimental music. After disbanding the Urban Needle project featuring Steve Mehlman (Pere Ubu) and Mark Gamiere (The Wake), he decided to go it alone and focus on full instrumental compositions. Tim released “Go Out and See” winning enthusiastic reviews from the likes of XLR8R, The Wire, and Textura. A follow-up EP titled "Be Still" on Japan’s Duotone records, featured 5 more of Arndt’s emotional ebb and flow compositions in limited release. In the summer of 2006, Near The Parenthesis signed on to n5MD and in November of 2007 released Of "Soft Construction". The Album being a logical progression from his debut as well as a stylistic watermark for n5MD as a whole. There are certain signposts on the record that point towards a creative kinship with artists like Ulrich Schnauss or Manual - there's certainly a similar preoccupation with expansive melodic melodrama and finely crafted electronic beat-making.

The Prisoner (12)

Hello, how quickly another week has gone by. Not for everyone, i suppose in the UK they got a lesson in global weirdness as the snow muted their laments over the screwed economy..meanwhile NuLabour ran out of salt to poor over that open wound. Apparently they forgot to google how to combat the problem in a much cheaper and environmental friendly way by using a mixture of sand and salt. Meanwhile the US had much bigger problems as their star olympian had lurked on a waterpipe with burning weed, setting a bad example to all the crack and coke heads, not to mention the many legal drug abusers in a country that's going for broke. Good thing that both countries learned the nazi lesson on how to keep the concentrationcamp inmates tranquil, throw plenty of fluoride into the water supply..... calm down with a shower and chill out with a spliff...

Hello, as the Canadia crew have found their maker last week, i've been pondering a follow-up. i've decided to pick a two part rendering of The Saga of Battlestar Galactica, a vinyl produced in the eighties. Currently a remake of the fearmongering Galactica war with the robots scores well as it has entered it's fourth season, well that one hasnt connected with me, too dehumanised what i've seen as the lines between humans and robots were blurred. (The Powers That Be at work). That said here's the naive eighties version, with the original cast...
