This, plus that La Musica releases were priced about £20 for a CD-R

The band now seems to be called "Makoto Kawabata's Mainliner", which I can't say I'm very keen on.

Anyway, here's a photo.

 

I just read some comment saying that Nanjo has even toured the US playing as Mainliner once without Kawabata... dunno if that's true, but if it is I could imagine that pissing off Kawabata enough to hire some replacement dude with a Johnny Ramone haircut instead. But then it seems even more unnecessary to bring Mainliner back to life in the first place.

NAZORANAI (KEIJI HAINO/ STEPHEN O'MALLEY/ OREN AMBARCHI)

SCALA
275 Pentonville Road, King´s Cross
London N1 9NL
Doors 7pm
£15 adv / wegottickets available here ticket web here

NAZORANAI


NAZORANAI is the dark matter-heavy power trio of Keiji Haino (guitar/synth/vox), Oren Ambarchi (drums) and Sunn O)))’s Stephen O’Malley (Bass).

Inaugurated with a 2011 concert in Holland, the group’s third and most recent show was captured to consciousness-smashing effect on last year’s self-titled LP (Ideologic Organ/Editions Mego). As with the wider range of Haino’s ever-evolving stable of ensembles the Dark Master is very much at the helm in Nazaronai, but this trio still marks a clear and thrilling departure from past configurations.

Fushitsusha, whilst highly fluid, maintain a stout basis of blues-derived ‘classic’-era transatlantic heavy rock, from Sabbath and Hendrix to Floyd and Amon Duul. The output of Haino/O’Rourke/Ambarchi, meanwhile, has a meticulous but deliriously wild, ever-accelerating, no-handbrake-fitted freedom and intensity.

Nazaronai, in contrast, construct a transcendent amalgam of motorik metal and ferociously unfettered space-rock. The blood-deep musical kinship that O’Malley and Ambarchi have forged through Sunn O))) and Gravetemple allows them to lay down a transfixing, remorseless, march-of-an-undead-host fundament of bass and drums from which Haino-san is able to cut jaw-slackeningly loose, fissuring forth from the pit of Hades before setting the overall controls for the other side of the Kuiper Belt.

113 DALSTON LANE
T G GONDARD + GAEL MOISSONNIER + CHORA
Thursday, 18th April

TG Gondard is currently based in brussels. First known as “TG” and active in the french underground since the late 90′s, he (Thibault Gondard) has explored many musical worlds, through his own melancholic lo-fi filter. His current output can be seen as an urban post-R’n'B world full of dirty samples and syncopated beats. His debut, “Avontuur” was released last year on Not Not Fun, and its follower is a new tape album of french electronic songs entitled “bye-bye waterloo”

Gael Moissonnier is based between Lyon and Brussels and very musically active in both cities. His solo shows utilise the crisp warbling of analogue synthesis in an enticing tussle with gnarly tape and voice manipulation.

Chora from London, are finally playing at 113 after many halted attempts. The duo use a multitude of instruments and objects to open the gates of a junkyard gamelan vibe of which only they have access. We’re excite to have them on the bill with a couple of their many collaborators.

Bee Mask
Café Oto
Saturday 1 June 2013
Tickets : £10 adv, £12 on the door

Bee Mask (est. 2004) is a project of Chris Madak and a vehicle for an intricate and deeply warped idea of modern electronic music which draws equally on the ecstatic human/machine couplings of 1970s west coast synthesis, the fractured gloss of sampler concrète, the iridescent thumbprint of High Minimalism on the humid throb of trunk bass, and the barely- sublimated currents of vertigo and terror that course beneath the most unsettling moments in the canon of home-recorded psychedelia.

The 2011 reissue of Canzoni dal Laboratorio del Silenzio Cosmico on the Spectrum Spools imprint of Editions Mego revealed Bee Mask’s place on the leading edge of a world in which distinctions between “head music” and “body music” no longer apply. In the wake of Canzoni and the double LP retrospective Elegy for Beach Friday, Chris has performed throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Europe and completed commissioned electroacoustic works dedicated to The Sonic Arts Union and John Cage. In 2012, Bee Mask debuted on the Room40 label with the Vaporware / Scanops 12″ and returned to Spectrum Spools with the full-length When We Were Eating Unripe Pears.

Otomo Yoshihide told me on Saturday that he will be back in September with a choir of disabled children he's been doing charity work for.

[Toilet & Bowels]

How was Otomo? I got there late just a few minutes before he started playing in a quartet with those 3 blokes but left after 10 mins because I couldn't stand their jazz wank.

[Genteel Death]

I loved the gig and I was particularly impressed by Roger Turner's drumming. It was jazz but there were plenty of moments of spazz too.
