nikos veliotis - costis drygianakis '28/04/01'

was wondering yesterday how the hell passed those 8 years since that memorable night.. anyway... so 8 years ago nikos veliotis (cello) and costis drygianakis (tape recorders, tapes) set up a unique set at small music theatre. early days of the venue and enhtusiasm for nearly every event was in the air. even in cases that the result wasn't that good nobody was losing his lust for new things... not so sure how this one occured though back then nikos & costis were collaborating even for a radio show, etc... but that's not the point.. the thing is that here's the documentation of a stellar (in my opinion) set of improvised electroacoustics.. nikos started playing the cello and costis was recording... after a point and on costis started interfering in the set with the cello tapes he was recording adding the whole set / night a more electroacoustic atmosphere...

you can listen to this great encountere here!

factor X 'directions' (harsh 005)

here's 'directions' as 'animals' each time i listen to it throughout the years i love it more and more.
holds the same as 'animals' too. it might be a reissue as i recall ages ago in an old catalogue of 'artware' that i came across it but as a release of a uk tape label (can't recall now which damned!) but never cross checked infos.
that's not the point anyway... enjoy some great lo-fi weirdness over here!

tac / factor X 'the animals' (harsh 004)

can't recall how those 2 tapes ('animals' & 'directions') were arranged for release, nor could i recall how i got in touch with shaun robert (aka factor X) back in early 90's. for sure he did some great soundscapes and was a great tape underground hero. i must admit that as time passes i fancy more and more those 2 tapes. i am not sure if 'animals' was the tape that was issued also on intransitive though it must be the same...

enjoy!

tac / factor x / e / runzelstirn & gurgelstock 'collaboration' (original mix - unplublished version)

while diggin archive material unearthed this tape. is actually the original collaboration mix that was sent to me by rudolv in early 95. willing to decay in order to earn time / money for the production (still was doing my military service so no great chances to save any cash) suggested a more rough / as insane as possible mix. the final result was received a month or two afterwards and was issued later in 95 as the 'collaboration' cd on perverse series (the story and upload of which will take place in a future post).

in the meantime enjoy the unpublished one... lasts at least 20-25 min more than the perverse series cd.
