Mix:16: TechNoise

noreply@blogger.com (The Civil Servant) — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 16:06:00 +0000

Ever since Surgeon played Whitehouse on Rodz Konez I have been fascinated in 'noise music.'

How far can the human mind go in terms of sound?

Noise music is extreme in every way, it isolates the listener, there is no compromising here. Like alot of music that is made to comfort us, noise music sets out to do the opposite. Very few people want to be challenged in this way.

Noise personally is a cathartic experience for me. To combine noise with techno has been something I have been interested in doing for some time and thanks to 'Smear' for releasing 'Corrupted Veins' one of the most groundbreaking noise-techno crossover tracks since British Murder Boys' - Learn Your Lesson. Smears track has really inspired me to do this by showing me the potential that can come from the marriage of two extreme styles of music.

Track ID's Please Help!

noreply@blogger.com (The Civil Servant) — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 09:53:00 +0000

There are 3 track clips here. Taken from a Rodz-Konez livefeed transmission in 2006 mixed by Akkachar. He wont tell me himself! (I've asked him twice and got no response)
I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what they are.

Got them!

1. An epic ambient song. Angelic and shimmering synth washes with western style whistling and trickling piano keys.
(Queen Elizabeth aka Julian Cope & Thighpaulsandra - Temple of Diana)

2. Ethereal ambient drones with random buzzing hits. In a similar style to Tim Hecker and Fennesz.
(Inigo Kennedy - Inside The Outsider 03)

3. Dark heavy slow industrial beats
(Luka Baumann - Non Serviam!)

Mix 13: Guns

noreply@blogger.com (The Civil Servant) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 14:29:00 +0000

Some beats are so vicious they sound like guns going off. Some sounds are so brutal they capture what I would believe it to be like if I was standing in the middle of a war zone. We all know how bad war is yet it seems that our race will never learn, violence appears to be a part of our natural behaviour. Guns for me are phallic instruments designed by man to replicate the sexual act through violence. There has always been a fine line between the two.
This mix is a raw statement against this brutality however I am ashamed to admit that I loved making it as much as I love listening to it. Go figure.

Transcend:
to go beyond a limit or range, e.g. of thought or belief.
to go beyond something in quality or achievement.
to exist above and apart from the material world.

Energy is becoming one of our country's greatest concerns. If we don't start working on energy conservation, there may not be enough energy to go around by the time I'm a parent. We're going to learn about how we can solve some of our problems through alternative energy choices. You can learn more about energy too: call your County Cooperative Extension Service for more information. Conserving energy is everyone's responsibility. Call 4-H to find out how you can do your part.

Mix 4: At The End Of The Day

noreply@blogger.com (The Civil Servant) — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 20:39:00 +0000

Inspired by Amon Tobin's track. I was on my way home from work in Belfast one early evening and I was listening to this particular song and I thought it captured the feeling of the cold city at twilight so well. It's when everything is winding down from a day and people are rushing home, on trains, cars or on foot. There is a real desire in the air, to get home, to get away from the madness, only to start it all again the very next day. I wanted a collection of songs that captured a similar feeling of busy cities. Sounds that echoed the skyscrapers and alleyways, people, vechiles and the city descending into darkness.

Civil Radio 18 begins...

noreply@blogger.com (The Civil Servant) — Tue, 02 Oct 2007 09:28:00 +0000

This Blog will host a collection of Livefeeds and DJ Mixes, covering the darker side of music.
Techno=Dubstep=Hip-Hop=Industrial=Electronica=Ambient=

Let me begin with the influences or the reason I want to do this.

Art + Expression of the mind. Especially through music.
Music for me is the food and language for the soul. It should be appreciated and enjoyed by everyone.

‘Without Music Life Would Be A Mistake’ - Friedrich Nietzsche

My Father, (1960-2006)
When you grow up with a man who has this understanding and passion for music you cannot ignore it as a child. It also helps if it runs in the genes! I grew up on so much but most notably, Joy Division, Swans, The Young Gods, My Bloody Valentine, The Pixies, Shostakovich, PJ Harvey, PIL.

HR Giger,
The master painter of our future fears and nightmares. The darkside of where technology becomes part of humanity in twisted beautiful imagined figures and landscapes of the unconscious. The CHAOS of REALITY====Visual Techno.

Rodz Konez,
A UK record label ran by Steve Bailey (aka Makaton) Dedicated in producing stunning and innovative dark industrial techno music. They ran a series of Livefeed radio broadcasts featuring some of the best techno musicians to display their vast array of musical influences. This was extremely inspirational for me because I learned so much from them. It reminded me of listening to John Peel. The disturbing brutality of Whitehouse & Merzbow, the beauty and mystery of zoviet france played alongside pounding techno and reggae. The perfect kind of radio show.

British Murder Boys (aka Surgeon + Regis)
Anthony Child and Karl O’Connor have been pushing the boundaries of techno for years. They are pioneers of the sound.
When I first saw them perform live on laptops in a dingy club in Belfast that was a pinnacle moment for me because I also got to meet them afterwards. I told them about the influence of my father and it was because of this intensity that I listened to them today. I told them that I wanted my father to appreciate their music as much as I did. Their next record was titled ‘Father Loves Us’.
