This looks amazing, but I think the size of the books is a bit strange.
11.50 x 16 cms.
I will order them anyway, so I hope this works in such a small format.

If all things go well, I will be in Dresden. Very much looking forward to it!
Perfect pre-Xmas celebration.

A question maybe someone could answer:
Is there a mixer where you can record directly on an usb pendrive?
I'm searching for recording while I'm playing live, without bringing any other equipment.
Thanks in advance

There's also the 1010 Lemondrop, no experience of that one.
And the Sonicware Texture Lab, which I do own. It's very limited and frustrating, and the hardware is flimsy and unreliable. BUT I do like the way it sounds -- it sounds "bad", lofi and digital in a way that is pretty pleasing to me. But I wouldn't recommend anyone buy one without the option of sending it back.

Quote from: Phenol on November 05, 2025, 11:19:39 AMNot sure how they do it these days, but I have a feeling it's a far cry from the old metal hammering days. I hope there'll be some more Scandinavian dates a little closer to home for me than Helsinki.
Test Dept will also be playing
Stockholm on December 20. Don't know about other Scandinavian dates, but this would surely be closer to you than Helsinki. I once attended one of their classic shows, Cannon Street railway station in 1984, not sure I would want to taint that memory by seeing the current technofied version of the group. But we'll see.
By the way, Merzbow is playing the same venue in January.

Quote from: host body on November 22, 2025, 04:13:47 PMWhat are the hardware options for granular synths currently? I had a GR-1 for a few months, got a very good deal for it. It was fun but sadly the hardware was way underpowered, iirc it's running on a raspberry pi. But Tastychips has a new, bigger model out that looks like its fixed the things I found lacking with GR-1.

Merzbow - Green Wheels (Urashima, reissue)
First listen of the day was this monolith of a 2xLP. File it under one of the weirder Merzbow LPs of the 90s. Tons of synth blipping, a little bit of metal scraping, but the part that shines is the vocal work. I never have really listened to any Merzbow with extensive vocal work. It's good! Is there any more like this? Dead Body Love comes to mind when listening to Masami freak out on the mic.
Bastard Noise - Galactic Sanitarium (Haunted Hotel Records)
It has been years since this one got spun. It used to be one of my favorites, period! On this relisten? It isn't that high up, but still is a high watermark of late period Bastard Noise. No vocals present, just a great display of Wood's composition for intergalactic synth wars. Also appreciate that there is some inclusion of scrap metal here, as that can be hard to come across in this discography once the 2010's enter.
Bastard Noise - Our Earth's Blood Part III (Rhetoric Records)
Went from LPs to 7" Saturday with this one. I always love a dose of 90s Bastard Noise. Barnes/Nelson/Wood lineup? Can't be beaten. You can always here the struggle to work with what they got, which is essentially just hotwired, circuit bent hunks of shit. Wood is yelling his head off, but no reverb present to make it truly epic. It is a truly impactful cry for help. Yeah, this stuff holds up very well for me. Totally broken, totally wrong... totally on point.
Slacking - Roundhouse a Bootlicker (Tribe Tapes)
Ended the morning with this churn of slop tape beauty. While I find myself so wowed by Slacking in the live arena time and time again, I can forget that he is a force on record too! There are some sounds here that I have become more than familiar with at this point, and side B even features our favorite duck on additional electronics... Still looks like Tribe has plenty of copies, so why not pick one up?

Agitant Group - Manipulated Feedback for Tape 2025 (Head Meat)
Well the title is true. It's definitely manipulated feedback! Piercing, squeling, and wretched. However, the surprising factor is it's recorded real filthy style. There is actually a lot of mud caked onto that feedback. A heavy saturated low end compliments the feedback well.
This sounds like it was recorded live, and the boys were having some fun! Real good energy here.
Anyone keeping track of how many active projects Charlie is in now?
Erik Nystrand – Brain Damaged By Head Meat (Head Meat)
God damn! Rips your face off from the first second.
First impression is that I can't believe this is guitar noise. To me, the guitar is near unrecognizable.
The Head Meat style is the perfect harsh noise sound. The masters must be getting the MSNP treatment after being sent to the label, because holy hell... it's fucking perfect. Also, the artwork on this one... chef's kiss.
There isn't a second wasted on this tape. It's all perfect brain brain-damaging sounds from start to finish.
I don't say this lightly, but it's one of the most invigorating noise tapes I've heard this year.
Ants In The Afterbirth – Privy To A Great Becoming (Head Meat)
Second release from the anonymous vessel that is Ants!
Absolutely choked out and strangled mayhem. Vocal maniac attack. Adrenaline is running high.
The theme of birth seems prevalent across the two releases now. Perhaps a source of anxiety fueling the project?
Even more than the last release, this feels truly unhinged and a blood-letting of emotions. I kept cranking the volume up further and further...
Absolutely wild and again, unhinged release.
