SICKBOY
The tradition of combining perversity and playfulness into a true soundclash has never left post-modern music alone, acting as culture vultures ramping their way through carcasses of crispy produced megabits to vigour sampling of smirky headlines.
Sickboy has more than upped the ante with this hairsplitting slab of digitized breakestral chaos, never suggesting melodies or functional rhythms it draws from but juggling without remorse on the dividing line between acceptability and grimy flavoured cynism. Crucially it's not the neglect of human consciousness, it 's the utter impulsive sheer excitement that blends in with a deliberate throwback of mostorted needle-sharping.
Imagine a dedicated Manowar maniac with the 'wimps & posers leave the hall' principle, incarnated in a sparkling aural torturous display of mashed-up breakbeat galore. Gonna clear rooms quicker than a megaton fire alert , and sure to leave the patriotic-minded behind with a hammer smashed face. Music that'll stir up any godforsaken industrial pigeonhole with a whirlwind...
Sickboy will take it or leave it. no sum of gigs from past or present. has played with the biggest gods and demons on earth. has danced on everybody's grave and feels this world is a better place if you create you own excitement.
Sickboy has released lots of 12 inches on the following labels:
audiobot (BEL), death$ucker (UK), tigerbeat6 (USA), junk (HOL), no room for talent (USA), hymen (D), zhark (SWISS), peace off (FRA)
FANNY
Winnipeg producer and Scottish expatriate. Fanny is Frasier Runciman and
began his musical career twenty years ago in the deconstructed rubble of the British punk rock explosion. Playing guitar for countless Edinburough bands fusing everything from the banshees to def jam, stravinsky to pfunk, fanny's exploits brought him to the attention of local punk rock legends the exploited, whom he joined in 1993. Frasier toured Europe and south America as the guitar player of the exploited and is featured as "the human bone" on the Live In Buenos Ares concert tape. He also co-wrote and recorded the "Beat the Bastards" lp but subsequently quit the band before the album could be released. Wattie replaced him in the credits with his unborn baby son. That's punk for ya! Frasier left Scotland to join Canadian funk rock icons Bootsauce and moved to Montreal shortly after. Despite their numerous gold records, incessant touring and a hardcore loyal following, Bootsauce was a star struck band, doomed by an inept record label. When they folded, Frasier found himself in Winnipeg, of all places, with a new musical ambition and vision. Having tired of guitars and rock clichés, fanny returned to his sampler experiments that he first began in the eighties. Trading in his guitars for synths and a PC, Frasier was freed at last to fully explore his musical ideas. The result was "Come and get it up yer," a limited release cd of Fanny's raucous booty house. not long after, Frasier met Aaron funk, aka Venetian Snares, and the affect of his music was enormous. Frasier found a new playground and began pushing his material in bold and often ridiculous directions. Weekend trips to Wisconsin and the legendary barn parties in east troy further seeded his ambitions. It was there that he caught the attention of Zod record boss Destro and Widerstand kingpin Eiterherd from Austria and plans were quickly made to release his new tracks. Collaborating with his small black dog puff, squealing under his chair, Frasier went on an intense writing binge in an effort to develop a new and original music. Important to him also, is having something to say with his music, be it an emotional impression or a concrete idea. As a result, his music stands out in the anonymous electronic world for his personality, wit and humor.
Fanny has released lots of 12 inches and CDs on the following labels:
Zod Records USA, Suburban Trash Records Germany, Conceptual Chaos USA, Hymen Records Germany, Pflichtkauf Records Germany, Datacide Magazine Switzerland, Ritual Magazine Italy, Addict Records USA, Invasion Wreck Chords Records Belarus, Tigerbeat 6 USA, Mirex Rec, Zhark International SWISS
SYNKRO
SYNKRO Is South African artist Sean Murray. Synkro blends the sounds of Africa with savage beat styles, taking what was rhythmic noise to a whole new level. Sean Murray creates waves of detonating industrialized drum 'n' bass mayhem purely with the dance floor in mind. Inspired by freeform percussion Synkro's music is recorded live with non restraint improvisation that still manages to be high energy and club oriented. Hard hitting aural assaults and pummeling beats for those tired of glitched out clicks and cuts.
self titled debut album is coming fall 2004 on sublight records ( ).
