fibo trespo (absurd cdr #16)

a cdr am nuts with.. fibo trespo the brainchild of sindre bjerga & kjetil brandsdal still stands as one of my favest lo-fi groups. their eponymous cdr being my favest as is closer to the more improvised lo-fi sounds i love. of course nearly all of their releases are nuts, from lo-fi rock to more noisy and improv stuff including parodieds like the 'fibo trespo' (another self titled cdr) which was a parody of the 1st iron maiden lp including the same cover, track listing changing only the name 'iron maiden' with 'fibo trespo' and so on.. guess their smalltown supersound lp is probably their weakest moment at least in my humble opinion... but back to this one...
intially was out on gold soundz and was if am not mistaken one of the reasons i had written long ago to sindre to obtain it. got it listened it liked it and as as limited to 50 dropped a line and asked for a reissue... includes bonus the myke droner 7" too.

play loud!

matt davis mark wastell : derby / liverpool (absurd cdr #21)

pretty funny but is exactly 7 years since the mini uk tour of 2002 and the release of this baby... matt & mark were (at least matt still is) for playing the trumpet & cello. however during the 'reductionism' heyday they searched other genres too. this is one of their first (if am not mistaken) live sets where the use of amplified textures was used.

enjoy

(ad)vance(d) cdr (absurd # red dot)

vance orchestra have been one of my favest 'ambient' projects (together with maeror tri and a couple more). for long i wanted to make a cdr or cd release of their work and when finally i discussed it with mars the project has split. mars was workin under the (ad)vance(d) name in a style not so different the the actual vance orchestra stuff.

at the same time i was and still am fond of red dot comics and zenia's work. no matter that sadly i don't have (actually never had that much) time to focus also on comics from time to time i check whatever i can. absurd did 1 collaboration with red dot actually contributed a short story in an issue of the zine together with other people too and the idea was born for another collaborative issue. don't recall why was delayed, etc however absurd's contribution this time was to be a vance orchestra (that turned to (ad)vance(d) cdr. issue was delayed so the cdr came under red dot's credit in a separate edition.

enjoy then a lovely moment!

Yoshio Machida - Read A Book With Steel Pan CDR

is almost a kind of 'tradition' that for almost every kid that is born regarding close pals, relatives to do a release to celebrate the event or almost something like that... don't wanna cut the long story short... however for the birth of little maximos, son of our friends yiannis & theodora the idea was droped by mihalis who suggested a release of yoshio machida whose work i hadn't listened earlier and this one was my first encounter.
limited to 70 copies housed (as the black to comm cdr too) in a transparent a4 envelope w/ a design of little amaryllis...

here's the cdr info

This is an improvisation for a book store. I sometimes play there. "Read A book With Steel Pan" is the event title. Like a piano performance at lounge in hotel, it's a live BGM. People sometimes stop in front of me, and pass away, choose a book, etc..., just share time and space together through the sound.
