Interviews

Image
Marcel Nickels - Le Petit Machiniste
The young German label Le Petit Machiniste is a good example that the DIY spirit is alive and well, that musicians - especially those working in underground music genres - can effectively band together, publish their music without the support of big record labels and have a good time while at it!

Reviews

Image
Rajapïnta - Bootleg Epiphanies
Rajapinta's "Bootleg Epiphanies" blistered my eardrums, shattered my skull and painted the inside of my cranial cavity with my imploded brains. And then it put everything back together again, only not quite the way it had been before.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... nta_be.htm

Image
Book Of Shadows - Inner World
The possibility of the existence of the thin line between ambient, new age, folk and experimental soundscaping is being researched by the Book Of Shadows collective. This fifth album by the couple Carlton and Sharon Crutcher numbers five tracks that are an impressive mixture of those styles.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... ows_iw.htm

Image
Neotnas - Spak Deti
While this album isn't for everyone, I would certainly recommend it as an alternative to those who are in dire need of cleansing their musical palette of acts who use every preset in the book and stack them on top of each other.

Interviews

Image
Andrea Marutti - Afe Records
The aim of Afe is to break down the barriers existing in electronic music and its efforts are addressed to all the fearless / open-minded listeners who will be able to get over the terrible shock of seeing such extremely different productions standing side by side.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/interviews/m_afe.htm



Reviews

Image
Conure - The Generation Of Our Grandfathers
Drawing inspiration from first-person accounts of a grim historical reality, Wilson weaved an intricate tapestry of abrasive and oppressive allegoric sound texture manipulations and experimental lo-fi noise compositions.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... _tgoog.htm

Image
Talvekoidik - Silent Reflections
An interesting development within the modern electronica scene is that of a number of industrial artists taking a step back from harsh rhythmic noise to create a more mature sound, melding emotional neo-classical with complex IDM beats.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... dik_sr.htm

Image
Rachel Car - Rachel Car
Steeped in seedy, resonant strings and pattering drums, with coldly processed vocals and minimalist bass, Rachel Car's self-titled effort presses into electroclash but recalls a new wave legacy reminiscent of The Heads or Tom Tom Club.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... car_rc.htm

Image
Banister - Rotor EP
Altogether, not a bad little EBM record - some brilliant dance floor potential, in particular - but still a little uncoordinated and in need of further studio polishing.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... ster_r.htm

Image
Territory Of Absence - Territory Of Absence
Eight tracks of quality electronica, ranging from subtle dark ambient moods to more intense pieces bordering on industrial, coupled with beautiful and accomplished voices singing operatic classics. An ambitious concept but not without some exectution flaws.

Reviews

Image Giancarlo Toniutti - Ura itam taala momojmuj lowajamuj cooconaja
Giancarlo Toniutti has done a fabulous job with this release, and it being my introduction to his music, I am now eager to hear more of his solo material. Highly recommended for anyone into drone/ambient music, or anyone wanting a nice meditative piece for a lazy day.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... uitmlc.htm

Image
a034 - Chemical Nature
Overall well-produced and exceptionally effective, "Chemical Nature" should serve as an indication of Pulici's talent, not to mention a harbinger of hopefully more good things to come from the a034 project.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_a034_cn.htm

Image
Blue Sabbath Black Cheer - untitled
I've never knowingly listened to Blue Cheer, but I've heard plenty Black Sabbath, and Blue Sabbath Black Cheer comes across as evil enough to make them sound like church music.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews ... heer_u.htm

Image
Parallel Worlds - Obsessive Surrealism
However tempting it is to generalize "Obsessive Surrealism" as bland overall, it is important to recognize the technique from which it springs. Although it may fall short in the ears of the discerning listener, glimmers of skillful achievement still manage to shine through its uninspiring tone.

Scrap.edx / S.O.R.E.H.E.A.D. - Camo Cuts
A label's first release can frequently be considered a broad statement of intent in terms of style and substance and, if good enough, it may even set the bar for future releases. This 12-inch picture vinyl split released on the nascent label Livevil, is one of those releases which sets the bar pretty high.

Interviews

Image
Yann Faussurier - Iszoloscope / Memmaker
Yann Faussurier is the man behind Iszoloscope, a music project started in the late 90s and most notably on the German label Ant-Zen. It's been a couple of years since the last Iszoloscope album, "The Audient Void", so we decided to check in on Yann and find out where he's been hiding.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/intervi ... surier.htm

Image
Fréderic Arbour - Cyclic Law Records
Operating out of Montreal, Canada, Cyclic Law is a label dedicated to promoting talented musicians from the Dark Ambient and Death Industrial/Martial sub-genres of electronic music, with a strong aesthetic focus, giving particular attention to the coordination between the music and the visual aspect of its releases.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/intervi ... liclaw.htm


Reviews

Image
Igorrr - Poisson Soluble
Individually examined, "Poison Soluble" makes absolutely no sense, but it's as a holistic entity that its genius shines through. A refreshing, thoroughly entertaining album the like of which I've never had the pleasure of hearing before.
http://www.connexionbizarre.net/reviews/r_igorrr_ps.htm

Image
The Impossible Flower - Anthophobia
Despite its drawbacks, "Anthophobia" is a very good release and an excellent introduction to The Impossible Flower. Perhaps not a masterpiece - though it includes quite a few tracks that can be described as such - but 'another' fine electronic release surely worthy of checking out.

Prometheus Burning - nBoyde raRepi
"nBoyde raRepi", the remix companion disc to Prometheus Burning's recent release, "Beyond Repair" is, in a word, delightful. It's beautifully constructed, dynamic and (probably most importantly - not to mention surprisingly) unique in its sound.

Zavoloka - Viter
With "Viter", Ukrainian experimental electronic artist and designer Zavoloka begins a series of four concept releases dedicated to the traditional four elements of nature. Dedicated to the element of air (the title means "wind" in Ukrainian), "Viter" is the first instalment of this tetralogy.

Alec Empire - The Golden Foretaste Of Heaven
Alec Empire, the iconic producer behind Digital Hardcore Recordings, has in certain respects returned to his digital roots. "The Golden Foretaste of Heaven" (henceforth, TGFH) is musically unsurprising, yet technically pleasing.

Ending what was a rather busy year, Connexion Bizarre ( www.connexionbizarre.net ) was updated on 2007-12-31 with a new webcast, new reviews, some of our staff's music picks for 2007 and new recommended events and links. Chances are that 2008 will be another busy year for us and we hope to be able to keep C.B. as active as in the year that just passed, bringing you regular music showcases with our webcasts and informative music reviews. In any case, we wish you all the best for 2008, may it be better than 2007. Now to business...

Reviewed this week were Queynte "Sincarnate" and ++99 "Weltverstrickung".
This week's webcast features "Lust for Love and Lost for Life" with music selection by Bauke van der Waal and "20071231-0113 Pop" with music selection by M.

Please note that, due to travelling/vacation reasons, the next Connexion Bizarre update is scheduled for January 14th.

Regards and best wishes for everyone in 2008,
Connexion Bizarre

++99 - Weltverstrickung
With the freshest EP from this emerging act, the listener is treated to four mature, versatile tracks ranging from accomplished dark ambience, through cleverly modulated feedback patterns and throbbing bass work, culminating in barely-held-in-check tension.

Queynte - Sincarnate
The greatest peril one is always faced with when listening to full-length industrial/rhythmic noise albums is that of similarity: a 30-minute-plus live set is far more than a selection of songs, and that something fails to translate in many cases into a full-length release.
