Classwar Karaoke

Operated by Adrian Beentjes (usa-uk), Anthony Donovan (uk) and Jaan Patterson (de), Classwar Karaoke is based around a series of ongoing quarterly surveys. Each act contributes a piece of music or film, an image, and a piece of writing.

As a project, classwar karaoke is based around a series of ongoing, quarterly surveys, the first of which, dubbed ‘0001 survey’, was released in May 2008. Each survey is different – in terms of personnel, number of personnel, and in terms of theme. Participation is fairly open – so long as those interested in being involved work intelligently within the broad context of experimental music and do not seek to use the project as just another on-line shop-window for their material. So far, the inclusive nature of classwar karaoke has worked wonderfully-well in terms of quality of material. See and hear for yourself by checking out our internet archive pages. Indeed, the label itself was envisaged, from the very start, as an experiment in the positive power which inclusivity can have upon artworking if included in meaningful ways. That said, we reserve the right to maintain the quality of both the art which is offered and the community from which it comes. Our ambitions for the label do not stop at periodic on-line releases. In the short time it has been running, we have already had  one  classwar  karaoke  live  showcase;  which  featured  as  0005  survey.  More  events  are  planned. Similarly, physical releases – of CDRs and DVDs – are forthcoming.

All material remains the property of the respective artists and is offered for free download in line with this license. The nine surveys published so far feature almost one-hundred artists, from all over the world; and the material in toto represents significant documentation of the experimental scene itself. Involvement in the project has helped spawn many fruitful collaborations, live-shows and a vibrant exchange of ideas; so much so that, for several repeat-participants, Classwar Karaoke is as much a collective as it is a mechanism for the release of new material.

Alex Kimball & Ian Linter – Kathedrikos Maschine

A Live Transmission with Alex Kimball and Ian Linter applying abstractions from different locations: Little Rock, USA, and Paris, France. An absolute act of improvisation after the render Myth & recording passion for Lodovico Series 9. Recorded Saturday, number 26/11 in 2011.

Alex Kimball

« Really, The Death Sound started in 2007 when I was beginning to explore early industrial music. I had gotten a bug to look into older industrial music while I was going through a Numb kick. I am someone who likes to « go back to the beginning » of things, so to speak, study origins, so the logical starting place was Throbbing Gristle. I was fascinated by it; it was different, challenging, and like nothing you’d really hear called « industrial » today. I’d remembered my friend Matt from college did sequencer programing on a freeware program called Jeskola buzz. I called him up with the proposition of starting a project. The Death Sound was born. Our first recording was just an experiment with using sound editing software, chopping up samples. The result was « A Series of Tubular Bells », which was a joke track that we threw up on myspace until we had time to do anything better. That is, until Cosey Fanni Tuti sent us a message telling us she enjoyed our sound. Late 2007, we had a flurry of recording and put together the 5 or 6 track (depending on which version) Series of Tubular Bells EP, mostly Matt doing instrumentation and myself doing arrangement, composition and some vocals. By 2008, we had been making connections all over the world, and our sound was growing more diverse from the different influences. While we had discussed possibility of touring europe, plans never fully materialized (and we weren’t ready for live performances anyway). While we were making a small name for ourselves in the European scene, very few local shows developed and the reception was lukewarm. Summer of 2008 I arranged and recorded « Loneliness on the Psychic Seas » largely by myself, but building on Matt’s instrumentation. Around this time, I was also doing a number of collaborations with artists from around the world (OLoF NiNe, Tarsus, Arte Sacra Atelier, and several with both Finger Painted Death and Glitchgore) under the name The Death Sound, though these were largely a solo affair. Late summer, we finally scrounged some mediocre gigs to try to promote a compilation of odds and ends « Nothing But a Nightmare » and our band’s one year birthday. This would lead to the retrospective album TDS: « Year One », a compilation of our first two EPs and the full live set from our « birthday » gig, on OFF/BRUMA, a Portugese net label. TDS: « Year One » was intended to be a milestone from which we would launch ourselves forward, and still remains in heavy rotation on underground internet radio, however nothing is as we intend. We played « Easy Street » not long after our birthday show, which proved to be our most successful show. The live album from that night would be the Death Sound’s last full length release. We had intended to begin work on a follow up to Year One, which was to be titled « All Part of Nature’s Plan », however in early 2009 only a few tracks were finished. The birth of Matt’s daughter was a happy occasion, but it meant that he no longer had the time to devote to musical projects that he once did. I found myself playing for the Kill Crazies, a punk band spun off of the band we had played our last show with, which is a story unto itself. Essentially, the Death Sound went on Hiatus. The brief re-emergence of the Death Sound last year had a lot to do with Dakuu, Stillborn Diz, Fuck Your Scene Vol 2, and the breakup of Medicide. I discovered and absolutely fell in love with Stillborn Diz, who ended up on Fuck Your Scene Vol 2. Through Stillborn Diz, I’d heard of a band called 13th Moon; a member of 13th Moon had put out a free Japanese goth compilation called « Plan X From the Eastern Dark ». I checked it out because it had Darkside Mirrors on it (whom I adore). Masahide from Dakuu, a band on that compilation, saw I was familiar with his music from Plan X, and checked out what I was doing with FYS and The Death Sound. -Masahide-san and I talked about the possibility of putting something out on Retro Virus Records. In the end, we decided to include the Death Sound, Stillborn Diz, and Finger Painted Death. Very long and complicated, I know! This gave Matt and I the perfect excuse and opportunity to dust off what we had been working on before our hiatus. While « All Part of Nature’s Plan » will almost certainly never see the light of day, the 5 tracks on Mundus Patet are representative of what the album might have been like, as we were moving away from our harsher sounds to a more moody and melodic style. »

Après avoir surfé sur sa guitare sur différentes vagues musicales, Dongle Doc découvre le laptop et commence à changer de cap voyageant désormais dans les océans de l’expérimental et de l’improvisation.

C’est pourquoi « Electrou Rideau » (c’est l’anagramme de son vrai nom ) tanguant entre compositions, improvisations et collages sonores, permet de belles plongées dans les profondeurs…

Laissez-vous donc emporter par le courant.

« The initial results of the testing show that the patients were responsive to the regimens of treatment provided, however it soon became apparent that any signs of recovery were entirely illusory at best. Remission of symptoms were promptly followed by extreme palpitations of the heart, what the patient described as ‘painful synesthesia’, and finally a tightening of the chest similar to those experienced during an asthma attack. No patients lived longer than 24 hours following the initial procedure. In this, we claim a small degree of success. »

Anton Mobin

Anton Mobin is a concrete music composer & radio producer addict of field recordings. Co-curator of the collective H.A.K. and curator of the Improvisators Network. Objects manipulator & improvisator experienced due to several meeting with international artists which one of the most important was certainly with Rinus van Alebeek in Berlin. Always in search for new articulations between objects, manipulations, and interaction with his own body. A crack, a fold, a brightness, a jolt in the plan of the sound, a convexity of surface…

Dreams face downward

Performed live by Anton Mobin at the ASP studios Paris on December 22th, 2010.
Recorded in multi-channel by |Ian Linter| for OFF/BRUMA.

Prepared Chamber. This chamber is a home-made acoustic instrument prepared by Anton Mobin and composed with a large box in wood, upgraded with several springs and others metallic found objects selected for their capacity to create melody. The box is divided into three parts among which each is covered with a different surface (a wood, a metal and a plastic one). Three different contact-microphones are placed in suspension under these surfaces: bass contact for the wood, medium contact for the metal and high contact for the plastic surface. Deliberate accidents produced in the Prepared Chamber create a micro universe which I dread in an intuitive way to resound as the pling plong music. Prepared chamber & Objects manipulated by Anton Mobin in an acoustic mode with effects application and treatments in real time by |Ian Linter|. Each of the 3 microphones were plugged and recorded in a separated track with different processing and equalization on each of them.

OFF/BRUMA would like to thank all the beautiful dreamers who gave substance to this album.

Luís Antero’s latest project named Out Level consists of a laptop, electric prepared guitar or field recordings. Having had 7 releases in several netlabels around the world, it is a project composed of many sounds from one lone man.

« To discover Out Level is undoubtely an experience. More enjoyable for ones, less for otherones, all this sound universe touch us in the way as it interwines all a variety of aesthetic languages, that walk from a sight more close to indie and shoegazze, to all a universe of field recordings and idm, with a close contact to the new tendries of all the electronic music of germain alternative circuits […] » Tiago Morgado | XS Records

« O projecto Out Level nasceu da vontade de experimentar… de improvisar, tendo os livros, o cinema e a fotografia como cenários primordiais para a criação musical, a que se juntou mais tarde o universo da fonografia. O objectivo (se é que existe) é criar ambientes que consigam projectar o ouvinte para lá do mero exercício de ouvir música… Quase tudo é gravado ao primeiro take, partindo de uma velha premissa que Kerouac usava em relação à escrita. Só assim se deixa na música o momento…

Vladislav Buben, well known under the name Buben, is a sound artist and an imminent pioneer of the underground scene in Bielorussia. The connexion between Buben and Anton Mobin was established by Rinus van Alebeek a few months ago, when Rinus asks Anton a technical help to digitalize sounds from a tape which was used by Buben to compose the great album released on Clinical Archive

After this technical support, Buben naturally asks Anton if he have some sounds to send him to start a new collaboration. Of course, Anton Mobin had sounds and he is always interested in new connexions and web collaborations. Sharing sounds with Buben was very spontaneous; Anton picked up in his sound bank many different textures, like extracts from Live improvisations, radio fragments, Field recordings and everyday life moments.

The real and unique composer still being Buben, in this release!

Listeners must know that nothing in Creation is an easy thing and to complicate the story the first version of this collaboration was killed by Buben’s laptop, which hard disk has burned!!

The revenge was terrible and it’s not one album, but two albums that Buben recorded in two completely different aesthetic!!
One influenced by « darkbeat » and the second more « experimental »…

Thanks to Just Not Normal and OFF/BRUMA, the two releases are OUT simultaneously on December 7th, 2010!

Please visit the both websites, to have a complete vision on the project called: « On the Different Side of the Objects ».

Mystahr – Ian Linter – Anton Mobin

For the passage of Mystahr in Paris, Ian Linter and Anton Mobin decide to join their forces to organize several sonic events to celebrate this occasion. Each artist is in contact on the web since a long time, but never had the opportunity to meet together. That’s done on July 21th, 2010 at the Maïzing Studio in Paris, where these three friends set up their complete gear to a special two hours radio show!

The Maïzing session was divided in two different parts:

First, each artist present a solo set around twenty minutes, which is the better solution for everyone to discover the sound of each other. Then, all three join for the real Maïzing session of 40 minutes, when each of the three sound universes collapses in a singular one.

After the session, Mystahr and Ian Linter, decided to release the two different parts : Three solos on OFF/BRUMA and the collective improv’ on Just Not Normal.

JNN103 – A Maïzing session with…
OFFB015 – Three solos

KHEOSTATIC – Joséphine Muller & Ian Linter

Composed improvisation, in three acts.

KHEOSTATIC is an improvised play with a total duration of about three hours trying in an encyclopaedic way to make a sound transcription of several elements which constitute the human reality, in its language, intellectuality and action. In this third and final act is completed the cycle initiated in Universal Transfusion. Abyssal Force is the color of Love number twelve, and power itself in the maximum material and metaphysical expansion. The three parts of KHEOSTATIC were live recorded at La Société de Curiosités, Paris.

KHEOSTATIC is an improvised play with a total duration of about three hours trying in an encyclopaedic way to make a sound transcription of several elements which constitute the human reality, in its language, intellectuality and action. In this first part the human perception is condensed in sound signs of the avant-garde, concrete and electroacoustic, through the recourse to an immediate and proto-metaphysical language, in narrow correlation with the possible conceptuality of the matter and its relations with the spirit. The three KHEOSTATIC‘s parts were live recorded at La Société de Curiosités, Paris.

Larsp composes experimental electronic music. In 2002. His first project under the name of PUPPET LE CURE, sounds like hard-techno vs. melodic orchestra, and an EP was signed by independent label CWK in 2002.

His solo project under LARSP was launched in 2005. It follows a radically different approach from Puppet le curé. Larsp has moved away from techno to shift from experimental ambient to melancholic breakcore. The project is based on the atmospheres rather than dance floor, half-way between darkly oppressing sounds and slow rhythmic destructuring.

Le Mal D’Archive is a project at the turn of independent electronic and sound design that sees its distinctive feature in the intersection between two apparently irreconcilable worlds such as experimental music on the one hand and the « chanson » for the more harmonious and Matrix melodic heritage of Italian music on the other.

Pharadigmatic elements of Bapttisti (first of all, a master of music degree in commercial attention to the universe of sound and harmony), as well as Fabrizio DeAndré, Leo Ferré, George Brassens, Massimo Volume, and many others is mentioned as tutelar figures, fragmented and dissolved into a homogenous sound magma and inscrutable, but not for this lack of balance as large moments of pleasantness. The structures of cyclic ballads of popular music, once cut, destructured, with the ring out and « work » become sound fragment, bearer of spaces and places strong connotations. These capsules image-time tools that Le mal d’archive disclaim spatially, in many molds.

« ‘Histoires de Plage’ is like a gem set between two monoliths, as a thing that becomes the first sweet, then strong, then languid and desperate, the various forms of memory, which in this project become malleable sound field. »

Le Mal D’Archive

I soon found out that Zan was one of the key figures in the cassette culture, and had collaborative works with more then 200 sound artists worldwide. The encounter during some sessions in a worn down roof apartment in the very heart of Barcelona resulted in the formation of a duo called dnasnow/mouseup. Our collaboration continued in Valencia, some weeks later, where we did an illegal concert in one of the cones of the Calatrava-complex. Recordings from those days came together in dnasnow/mouseup 1 – 6 which were compiled by Zan.

In the summer and autumn of the year 2001 I stayed for three months in Zan’s hometown in Louisville, Kentucky. The outcome of that visit were twelve more releases by dnasnow/mouseup, of which 7 is the first. Listening back to it, several stages in my life come to mind. The spoken word passages bear immediate links to places and persons, very dear to me, and completely unknown to those who read these lines.

But another thing occurred to me. Besides the amazing variety of sounds, and the drive behind it, I once again was struck by the uncomplicated communication between Zan and me. But 7 might also contain information for future sonic archaeologists. It was in 2001, more or less seven years ago, that the US was struck by a so-called terrorist attack. While politicians and media talked about « a world that never would be the same again » we worked on recordings and site specific performances. In 7 one could recognize the aftermath of this attack, and a visionary audio portrait of a country in transition.

I, for one, to describe 7 prefer the epic stillness of a land after the flood. Little and bigger objects slowly float by on their way to grand rapids. The roofs of houses stand praying in the mirrorlike waters. Each little thing is animated, speaks with a different voice. The big rains, the roaring of the invading waters have gone, but if you listen close enough, they are there. Of course each one of you might hear a different story. Ours is from long ago.

« We are the curators of the Natural History Museum of Sound. We will look for, involve and invite hometapers and homelabelers alike to take possesion of the rooms of the Museum. We will create sounds from nowhere, and turn the alphabet inside out, to finally find the words with those holes in them. We will find music you would not dare to call music. »

In trust, The Death Sound has its origins as far back as the late 90s and early 00s, when Matt was recording minimalist electronic and IDM as the Bitter Poets, and Alex was aware of Matt’s programming work (indeed, they even attended college together), but realization of TDS would be not come until late spring of 2007. The idea behind TDS was initially to bring a retro-Industrial sound to Arkansas, but it soon become clear that TDS wasn’t retro, would never be retro, and would be better off doing something new and their own.

« This collection serves to show where TDS has come over the last year, bringing you our earliest recordings and the show that marked our first anniversary, and perhaps to show where we may be going in the future. »

« I just remember the album was a serious joke. A joke because originally I wanted to criticize the stereotypes of « french cold wave » (« grey » being the cliché of cold wave). But it was then a serious project as art surrounded the joke to create & experiment my own anti-formula. Slap bass is generally « cool » or quite « fun » music. My will was to make sad and chill the « funk » technique for instance. The title was a deconstruction about the « grey » stereotype in cold wave. I tried to use and deform the cold aesthetic to find my own, thanks to a mix of toy synthesizers and chill basses. »

Pianíssimo alcoólico no Casio SA-5 improvisado. Betereb-es. We can forget love & o piano é um instrumento de eleição pelo tempo fora do mastro-jazzOFF. We can’t forget love & olhos fechados em tardes de primavera, fecundos, amenos, lentos, vagos, lama. Amal! Uno e carrega-se nas teclas uma a uma, às vezes duas a duas, às vezes mais, com toda a técnica e mais Uma. Olha-se a janela e o Sol is falling. Ganza-se o olhar e a janela cai antes. SA-57. Virtude.

Minur foi um pássaro que encantou a corte de Sirah, a casta mais bela de todas as vinhateiras moçoilas. Enfim livre de qualquer mortandade a vinha subiu ao monte Jazz e descendeu. Descentou-se e a partir daqui entra o aleatório. Mil batimentos no fusco. Sempre a parir na teoria tecnológica e cortante na periferia do anal. Sempre a parir. Trogloditas a escancararem-se em tronos e dísticos partidos, e selvajarias a condizer e a soerguer: mais! We & transumância do terreno.
