Original line-up of program also included Extreme Hair Stench (onkel tuka tapes) and Einzeitgeneration (irre tapes), Victor/Victim etc.. but discarded for various reasons. Victor/im basically because it was "too old" and fits better for possible 80's episode. EHS did bunch of crappy tapes. Two self released ones (or Onkel Tuka) are not too good. Split with gestörte Nachbarn neither, but contribution on No More Music comp was considered, but discarded when editing program. Onkel Tuka could be interesting for this comp tape which mixed together noisecore (meat shits, patztörözött, Seven Minutes of Nausea etc) and noise (bizarre uproar, G-Hörsturz, End Of Silence..).. I would say thing that simply didn't happen much before that? Their Onkel Tuka Records released Gerogerigegege "Recollections Of Primary Masturbation" CD.
Irre Tapes is also curious label. I have absolutely NEVER heard anyone to mention that label. Still, 1982 to 1994 with over 100 releases.. of course style varies greatly from postpunk and synth new wave and german underground, but ALSO things like mentioned Einzeitgeneration (ger) and Doc Wör Mirran or good euro editions of bands like Browning Mummery (early Aussie stuff) and Psy. Phalanx (Ulex Xane & co.)...
Bawler productions... I don't remember the band mr. Gith played. I recall it was hc/grind of some sort (could it be Vivisection)? His labels releases are solid. And not saying just because I took part in many of them. Hah. Two first Use Your Voice compilations are grind/hc compilations with Kirous, Yacopsae, Selfish, Mob 47, Suppression, Arsedestroyer, Last Days Of Humanity etc.. But from then on, new kickstart with Feedbacks, Factories & Noise compilation (used in this program), followed by Aube, Grunt/Krachgay, and so on... AND as curious and quite amusing detail I may say, this guy is partly thanks to birth of Alchemy Of The 20th Century project. He liked a lot Grunt "two episodes" tape (very hard to find and not even listed in discogs. Released by Finnish label Scattered productions from Joutseno, who did releases for Eciton, Futile Existence, etc... guy was one half of Junkdrome project). This tape was among first experiments to include the "routine" gloomy floating ambient tone behind harsh noise. Week after "two episodes" recording, I recorded first drone materials. Back then I just recorded stuff, with no plans for particular release. I recall Bawler liked two episodes and said he wanted to release such stuff without the noise interrupting the drone, and what happens - I had the stuff already made and debut tape came out quick.. Without this label, who knows what kind of turns would have happened. He put out Alchemy.. 7" and also split with Grunt.
As said in program, G-Hörsturz is something that appears to be ignored. Considering the popularity of harsh noise wall, one would assume their releases could be wanted? Not sure if first demo came 91 or 92, but 2nd tape certainly is from 92. It was two guys, one play bass other guitar, but unlike usual "guitar noise", they'd just produce this massive rumbling wall of harshness. 1995 mother savage noise productions release "Life In The Psychotic Mega-Machinery" is probably most wellknown. Wrapped in bloody bandages. Or maybe their own 7" or collab with Lasse Marhaug on View Beyond (cze). Weird label who did anything from punk to noise to black metal. Same label doing first 7" of Maniac Butcher and mCD of Aeternus and Solstarif, but also Ödeema, Insania, Lasse Marhaug, Needful Things, Third World Planet,.. Anyways, it's always solid crunchy brutality from times when crunchy noise wall wasn't the most valued genre, hah...
