nice man.
51. “For Magic Are A Jolly Good Bullit” -
Terbeschikkingstelling
The story:
A noisemaker
and a trombone player went to a bar and what happened there changed history
as they knew it... It was on this darkest eve in January (2017) that
Terbeschikkingstelling saw it's birthlight and was hurled onto this planet.
Emiel and Volker combined their knowledge of their instruments and tried to
discover new ways to use them in experimental harmony and discord.
In 2019 Emiel
decided to quit and Volker felt the urge to continue as an uno. After
spending some time tinkering and pondering Volker reinvented the wheel...
found was to work on his own. Loads of collaborations and mastering more
digital forms of noise and experimentation allowed him to succeed on his
own... Terbeschikkingstelling remained!

*Track
includes excerpts from “Happy Birthday” by Mildred & Patty Hill, which won’t
cost anybody a fortune to use anymore, coz it turns out Warner/Chappell WERE
taking the piss all along ($14 million, na-na na-nah-na), and the song is
now rightly considered a ‘traditional’...

He’s a video
artist, okay... he’s Gordon Way... a.k.a. DJ ANY WAY... and he makes sounds
for you to play... okay, now I go away...
As our first
connection with Gordon was doing the track “Here” for the “Gordon’s Way”
video, we thought he might appreciate the return of a couple of familiar
voices to introduce him. So we sent Dr. Patel along to visit her
psychopathic patient, currently serving life in Millhaven.
KILLER: Dr.
Patel, you have come to visit me.
DR. PATEL: I
have come to visit you.
KILLER: This
pleases me, it is very lonely here, fuck this.
DR. PATEL:
Fuck this.
KILLER: I
have said sorry for killing those girls, but they will not let me out.
DR. PATEL:
Accusing you.
KILLER:
Accusing me.
DR. PATEL: I
am here because the Magic Bullet want us to introduce Gordon Way, do you
know who he is?
KILLER: Who
he am.
DR. PATEL: He
makes pictures that move.
KILLER: Yes!
You and I appeared in one of his videos. I know who he is.
DR. PATEL:
How does that make you feel?
KILLER: He is
not real, he is a construct, he does not belong here.
DR. PATEL:
The only place he belongs is here.
GORDON WAY
(EFSPACM member)
The first
EFSPACM project we took part in (after they stopped deleting our posts, and
no, Gordon wasn’t involved, he’s much too nice for that) was to produce a
soundtrack for a video by him. We were one of ten artists to do so, our take
being a musique concrète psychodrama called “Here”, based on a word that
appeared as graffiti on a wall at the end of the video, and featuring the
two characters in the introductory piece above. The results were released on
an album called “Gordon’s Way” (oh yes, they’d put some serious thought into
that one) and Skit and I found it quite fascinating how our experience of
the visual images changed with every different sound interpretation. We were
keen on more, and luckily, so was Gordon, so we’ve just done “Eleven
Experiments In Trisecting Them” together, his video, eleven experimental
soundtracks by us.

53. “Into The
Atmosphere That Feeds It” - DJ ANY WAY
I can’t help
it. The world presents me with sounds and sights and I can’t leave them
alone. A fit comes over me and I make a video or soundscape to improve
reality. You be the judge.

Benches...
Tonio Rumoer... benches... Klopmasjien...
Like I said
recently, I really should write these things down at the time...
TONIO RUMOER (EFSPACM member / BenchesBenches)
When Tonio,
also uninvolved in Postgate, put forward his ‘BenchesBenches’ project idea
to fellow EFSPACM members, we were very keen to get involved. We are spoilt
for benches in scenic positions here in our beloved Knott End-On-Sea, so the
thought of sharing our views and local sounds on his project website was a
happy one indeed.
55. “The Magic Buzz” - Klopmasjien
This summer I
stayed a few days at a friends house. Covering his garden wall was a plant
which attracted a huge amount of bees, creating a big buzz. Of course I had
to record it. I immediately thought the bees would fit in well on a
compilation with the name 'Communitas'. So I based my contribution on the
sound of these little animals, hope you like it. Long live Magic Bullet!
Fun fact: In
my hometown Groningen (the Netherlands) there is a great record store called
'The Magic Buzz'.
