Dual - Fall
CEE
recordings
Fall
is the second in a series of CD's to feature live / archive material
by Dual. This release captures a live performance at the Drone Records
festival held at The Podewil in Berlin, Germany in April 2000. It
includes six tracks; aringe, 70dN, baanstan, cee, mbe and
rogacoln with a total playing time of just under 36 minutes.
The release
is presented on two 3" CDR's in a stunning long format clear case
with hand assembled transparency prints of a still taken from the
film Links (by regular Dual collaborator GR.) The film was
originally projected as a backdrop at the show in Berlin. This release
is a limited run of 100 individually numbered cd's on the CEE label
and will therefore be available for a short period only.
Part composed and
part improvised this performance includes scattered light rhythms
meeting punched slabs of bass over and under a washed out blissful
drone of chords. Percussive clicks form into motorised gyres to round
off the first disc. Metallic scrapes and waves of clouded shrills
begin disc two, leading into a fractured soundscape of tearing screams
and mournful unquantised static waves. Gas like haze drifts in until
a low pulse and a lifting hum of tension rise's with a distorted clatter
to finish.
Ltd quantites of the Fall
CD were available at the recent Dual show in London on 21st November
at the midRange event hosted
by Coombe Records and CEE recordings. Many people took advantage of
this special pre-release offer and therefore its recommended anyone
wishing to pick up a copy of the ltd CD should place an immediate
order to guarantee a copy.
Available
as always through the Coombe records distribution network and available
from exclusive Coombe Records / Dual stockists.
Please get in touch for price information, email info@dual.co.uk

Troum
from Bremen, North Germany performing at their first ever UK show
as part of a mini UK tour. Troum's creations are influenced by post-industrial,
minimal and drone-music. Both members use guitars, bass, voices,
accordion, gongs, metals, field recordings, pre-recorded-tapes and
a diversity of sound-objects to build a kind of multi-layered and
highly atmospheric dreaming-muzak.
Pawel Grabowski is a Polish born, Irish based electroacoustic
musician and composer. His current realisations are based on field
recordings manipulated using a G3 powerbook laptop and broken violin,
number of contact microphones and different objects. Various releases
available on SINE and Laub records, plus a forthcoming release on
Mystery Sea.
Dual use only guitars, fx and electronics to achieve various
forms of mood and atmosphere whether it is percussive, drone or
somewhere in between. Dual will be wrapping up a busy year of live
performances having played live shows in Greece, Poland and a small
tour of Japan and will be promoting a new double 3" cd 'Fall' on
the CEE label.
iD aka Ashley Davies will be taking time out from his busy
schedule with avant rock 'n' noise turntablists Project Dark. iD
is a project that primarily uses sound gleaned from a tone generator,
which is crafted into vast swathes of swirling piercing sound and
rhythmic pulses. Sometimes blistering, sometimes fragile, the music
is formed into a journey that drowns the senses. More is more, an
excercise in maximalism.
. m u r m e r . is Patrick McGinley, an American born musician
and theatre artist who has lived and worked in Europe since 1996.
The concentration of his work is on the framing of sounds from our
environment which normally pass through our ears unnoticed and unremarked,
but which out of context become unrecognisable, alien and extraordinary.
He is a co-founder and chairman of Framework, an organisation that
produces a biweekly radio show on London’s Resonance FM and organises
and promotes live events for artists working in the realm of field
recording and phonography.
iMAX is a member of the SLOW SOUND SYSTEM collective of
djs, producers and artists exploring digitals, audioscapes, collage
and pixel manipulation. SLOW SOUND SYSTEM run an irregular slow
club, a space for relaxed audio and video experiments in London
and also broadcast live on Resonance FM. iMAX will show various
images and Flash animation films as well as playing a dj set.
GR. has recently worked on videos with Fat Cat artists Process
and Dorine Muraille and has co produced a short film 'Car Park'
under the name Cassette41 that have been shown at various festivals
worldwide. The images are shot on digital / film and photographic
stills are incorporated to create a textural landscape. GR. has
also collaborated with Dual producing images for live concerts.
Brown Sierra is Paddy Collins and Pia Gambardella, two sound
artists based in London that experiment with self made instruments
and electronics and film. Their image work is shot on Super8 film,
video and reflected slide projections, layering - abstract vs. emblematic
- moving or static with lush unique textures. They also edit and
publish the infamous sound art magazine Noisegate and run the label
National Express where you can find their many releases.

- MINING FOR
GOLD SHOW

FRIDAY 18th July 2003
Johny Brown of
The Band of Holy Joy has been playing Dual regularly on his daytime
radio show Mining For Gold on Resonance FM and has kindly
invited Dual back to play on his lunchtime show. Anyone that heard
the last Dual session on the Mining for Gold show would probably agree
it was a stunning piece of broadcasting and so the invitation to carry
on from where the last piece ended is here.
- The show will
be broadcast between 13.00 - 14.00 BST on
- Friday
18th July 2003
- on 104.4
FM in the Greater London area or at www.resonancefm.com

And while Resonance
FM / Mining For Gold's Johny Brown is on tour at the Edinburgh festival
with his play SNIPERCULTURE for the next couple of weeks special
guests will present the show in his absence. For the next three weeks
the show is presented by Colin Bradley of Dual / midRange / Coombe
Records. He'll be performing live remixes of new, old and current
electronic and acoustic based sound pieces. Expect drones, loops,
beats, clicks, sound textures, cuts ups, field recordings and maybe
even some songs thrown in too... all put together and cut, spliced
and fed into the Dual sound system to leave what may or maynot resemble
the original piece.
- The shows will
be broadcast between 13.00 - 14.00 BST on
- Friday 25th
July 2003
- Friday
1st August 2003

midRange
Meanwhile Colin
Bradley joins the midRange evening at the Foundry in East London
for more carefully dissected slipping cracked, clipped and piercing
sonic silence.
Coombe Records
present... midRange
An evening of
self made electronic instruments, raw fuzzed out country, harmonious,
fractured and glitched sound textures, and new experimental films
with live music provided by......
- MOTION (12k
/ Fat Cat)
- Motion forms
a distinctive and profound infused atmosphere, constructing a terrain
of minimal ambient textured drones coupled with static clicks and
glitches. Listen carefully as you'll miss the subtleness of micro
fractures of pulsing sound. Motion have many imaculate releases
on labels including 12k, Fat Cat and 8bit Records.

- BROWN SIERRA
(National
Express / Noise Gate)
- Brown Sierra
are Paddy Collins and Pia Gambardella, two sound artists based in
London that experiment with self made instruments and electronics.
The sounds consists of pulsating tones, (ir)regular clicks, squeaks
and dictaphone scramble. Their technique of building slabs of hard
/ soft, subtle and slow moving tracts of sound is unique. They also
edit and publish the infamous sound art magazine Noisegate and run
the label National Express where you can find their many releases.

-
- THE REBEL
(Country
Teasers)
- Ben R Wallers
(The Rebel), is guitarist / singer with the outlandish four piece,
Country Teasers, renowned for their own brand of 'alternative country'
naturally producing new music in the historical vein. 'The group
never approach country & western with an ironic attitude: it
is the medium through which they produce music, in the same way
that a blues singer produces music via blues'
Fat Possum Records.
The Rebel's take on country blues is a twisted world of self indulgent
cynicism with sounds produced from found objects utilised in a strange,
'electronic' way, complementing the drifting guitar ballads of a
dark nature!

- Dual live
-
- Dual will be
playing two live shows in March and Colin Bradley of Dual will also
play a dj set at the regular monthly Coombe Records evening midRange.
|
|
- Firstly Dual
will play a one off show with iD and S.40 SoundProject
at the Small Music Theatre in Athens, Greece on 4th March 2003.
This will be a taster of a
future project that is still in the planning stages for a small
tour of Europe that will commence in the summer 2003. The
shows will feature individual sets from each artist then a joint
collaborative effort as a finale to the evening.
-
- Dual
will play a solo show featuring electric guitar, laptop computer
and electronics with live sampling of the sounds as they unfold.
- iD
is a project that primarily uses sound gleaned from a tone generator,
which is crafted into vast swathes of swirling piercing sound and
a-rhythmic pulses. Sometimes blistering, sometimes fragile, the
music is formed into a journey that drowns the senses.
- S.40 SoundProject
has been in existence over 30 years and yet never before performed
live. With the sound source a 2300 model Arp, beautiful microtonal
landscapes of sound rise easily into dreamlike states to seduce
and confound like an ancient Greek myth. Based on ancient Greek
musical theories, S.40's music is both oppressive and uplifting.

-
- Dual (Coombe
/ Drone Records / CEE)
- Dual's sound
source is entirely from guitars, live and manipulated utilising
laptop, live sampling and fx. The end result; morphing layered textures
of treated guitar sounds and atonal drones with static metronomic
clicks and pops. To complement the music, a constant motion drift
of warping imagery is projected as a backdrop.
-
- iD (Ashley
Davies / Project Dark)
- iD is a project
that primarily uses sound gleaned from a tone generator, which is
crafted into vast swathes of swirling piercing sound and rhythmic
pulses. Sometimes blistering, sometimes fragile, the music is formed
into a journey that drowns the senses. More is more, an excercise
in maximalism. iD is Ashley Davies (Project Dark, Headbutt, C4i,
Chemical Plant, Ohms and Watts) and has recorded for many labels
including Speeding Across My Hemisphere, Larmnerv, Evelyn Records,
TM Industries, as well as self releasing nearly 30 CDr's in the

showing are: Road Surface, Lamictogen, Pattern Perception and Resonance
Imagery. Brown Sierra films have also been shown at Atavistic Ratchets
and Maxis 2002.
