Jansky Noise - Past Present & Future Star Music

Soooo, amazing, love this video!!!!

Kind of like the Mongolian Tuvan throat singers verses Dead Can Dance on Mount Pindo in Galicia and all hell breaks out. Respect! 

The year was 1989, a time when the world was experiencing a musical revolution that would shape the future of electronic dance music. Acid house had erupted onto the scene, and its pulsating beats and mind-bending synths were captivating the hearts and souls of young music enthusiasts worldwide.  This was a trans-formative period when I was quite young and tender, and seduced by songs that sang about Ecstasy.  Plaza's "YO YO," does this, counts, and has an unforgettable bass line that still resonates with me to this day. It was a typical evening in Manchester, the city where musical innovation often found its home. Acid Alan, my father, was known through many decades as he spanned them looking for tunes, and he still is. At the time he had an uncanny knack for discovering hidden Acid House, Belgium, New Beat and just rare audio jewels. On this particular night, he was set to spin the turntables at a wedding reception held in a large hotel along the A6 road near Heaton Moo

Ever so lonely? Monsoon? 

Yes, I like Animals too, good work here from Michael Hearst....

This belongs in so many places......

About 1 year ago I sent this to my friend Helga with a kiss, still as amazing as ever. X

Never forget the first time I heard this driving back on a Sunday and listening to what was the only experimental radio show of the time. It reminded me of so much simply blending Kraftwerk and Autechre into it's own Spanish vibe. Got to love this stuff.

Makes you wonder what was going through the mind of  Enrique Mateu de Villavicencio back in 1987. Maybe the same as that of the Alien Porno Midgets a decade or so later. Anyway, brilliant and thought provoking for sure. 

Summer - It´s on it´s way, and on the warm breeze that tickles my neck, I feel the gentle kiss of what helps light us within...

Singer Donna Summer, famous for disco hits including I Feel Love and Love To Love You Baby, has died at the age of 63. Summer was one of disco's biggest stars and won five Grammy Awards. Her family said they were "at peace celebrating her extraordinary life and her continued legacy". Summer's collaborations with producer Giorgio Moroder helped define the genre, as well as having a huge influence on synth pop and dance music. You have to acknowledged her influence. "While we grieve her passing, we are at peace celebrating her extraordinary life and her continued legacy. Words truly can't express how much we appreciate your prayers and love for our family at this sensitive time."

How young?

Is it possible to be a Zillonaire? ABC asked that question in this electro style pop smash. Audio luxury as fresh today as it was, what 30 years ago!!

Jansky Noises most recent album Hacksome Rollrock is available from the Digital Vomit stable. The project was shaped around a working method which can be compared to those employed by Jackson Pollock. I have bound layers of sound using the sounds as color, merging them into a multi-directional recording. The mix was made in a spontaneous stroke motion, with plenty of error, movement and action. A totally random technique of smearing audio . The recording is solid and coarse whilst at the same time haphazard and full of obstructions. There is a rotating wild sense of freedom here where thick forms lick, stick and layer up alongside the thin. The voyage of creation is no less important that the journey you make when you listen Original recording from Studio Loom UK. Download it now

Late in the day..

It´s more than fair to say, that I am as close to my good friend James Leyland Kirby as anyone can be. Ï am, was and will be, the main co-pig, pie-alot in his life. Without doubt and regardless of what the documentation states - when it comes to musical origin or journey we have shared many and most from birth and beyond. This song, voyage, statement made by Leyland titled - Live for the future, long for the past, is understated. James has without doubt raised the ´´anti´´, and with all due respect received much acclaim for his recent Caretaker and Leyland works. This artifact has somehow has sadly slipped under the radar. Honestly, do not let it pass! It´s defiantly worth playing it again. When you do admire the essence of electricity, this is a true ´´Goliath´´, a timeless and monumental slab of electronics, close to it´s birth place, as crude in origin, but beautiful in form.  ARRGH x
