I have made a track called “Hollow” for friends’ label compilation: IVDR on VERYDEEPRECORDS Limited edition double tape. <3 Now I got a tape, even two tapes, and no tape player. Oh, these analog kids today, tsk. Good that today it’s released online too! Listen here: [bandcamp width=350 height=470 album=2949710781 size=large bgcol=ffffff linkcol=f171a2 tracklist=false] “Hollow” […]
This ‘making of’ of Burial’s Untrue takes me way back. Soundforge, Fruity Loops and Wavelab – loved them. What they couldn’t do and what was hard to do with them was were the creative process started for me. Took me years to realize and accept it and not see it as failure and deficiency of […]
Isn’t it sweet that Google Photos shows me this picture when I search for selfies of mine on my haunted Android machine?! Last weekend the great IMPAKT Festival took place. I sadly had neither time nor cash to be there so I’m really thankful that there was a livestream and I am slowly starting to […]
Me too. “If all the women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted wrote “Me too” as a status, we might give people a sense of the magnitude of the problem. Please copy/paste.” #YesAllWomen —– The #metoo hashtag started by Alyssa Milano is making the rounds on social media, now in the heat of […]
I have made a quick little mix last night while picking music for my little DRAMA night. “Little” means: not as much decoration etc. as with my ORCHID party, so it’s a bit less nervewrecking and a bit more careless fun for me. ^^ If you’re in Nuremberg tonight, come over! It’s at Zentralcafe, my […]
There are those kinds of essays that I save for days because I’m so looking forward to reading them that I don’t want to do so rushedly – like, whenever David A. Banks writes a new essay on urbanism and structures of power. His latest is ‘The Authoritarian Surround – The suburbs have incubated authoritarian […]
I’m writing this down because of the lump I had in my throat while reading the Laurie Penny article on Milo Yiannopoulos’ followers. It shows the limits of her wonderful way of writing within the sad state of journalism as it is: Best payed for stirring up emotions and discussions, and for setting social groups […]
Swiss Army Man is a long bromantic fart joke going serious and we get to witness that not even death can stop bros from connecting over a woman’s rejection. It also is a fragile, funny and beautiful film.
I am currently celebrating the end of 2016 by having got stuck in a bingewatching hole that is quite soothing and well-deserved after last week’s stress, so no false shame here. Here’s what I’ve seen so far: The Return of Doctor Mysterio was a nice one. Maybe a tad too family friendly. It is not […]
I’ll be doing a little bar djing after Claus Baumann’s talk about LeFebvre’s “Right to the city” and Adorno’s “Duty to deprovincialize” at our beloved Zentralcafé Nürnberg tonight. Whilst picking songs I have made this quick topical mix. CITY BELONGS TO US Tracklist: Freddy Ruppert – To hell with this whole damn city Des Ark […]
