.: LHF - Akashic Visions

Just looked in on Blackdown, [It's been one of my favourite blogs for a while now],
and this track and video instantly grabbed me, and I had to post.
It has a Detroit/to/London/via/Afghanistanfransico atmosphere that resonates across 20 years of culture [that I have witnessed], whilst sounding like the future.
Oh yeah, ..and then the beat drops.
 "Akashic Visions" is a cut taken from the forthcoming LHF début and double album,
 "Keepers of the Light" on Keysound Recordings. |   Video Directed by the mighty Skely Tor, a true Light Keeper.


Available as 2xCD with exclusive sleeve notes and artwork and as digital on April 2nd (2012).

.: Tripolar I - m0n0cycle [1996]



'Tripolar I' was recorded by Monocycle [aka Dj manson].
Kings X Sydney, 1996
Originally released on CD.
Video done in 2011.

The paintings in this clip are by one of the greatest concept artists of the 20th century,
John Berkey, [RIP].
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Berkey
I have incorporated them without permission, but full credit goes to this amazing artist, my intention is to expose people to his talent. All these images were available online, I just did a Google image search for 'John Berkey'
His work is just incredible.
If you like his art, [and you can afford it] you can buy his book here:

Videos for Tripolar II & III are on the way.
They will feature the art of Max Ernst and Richard Dean, respectively.

.: ANTITRAX | Nihlistic Hard Tek from the end of the 20th Century

In 1998 I was back in Sydney after a 4 month stint in Europe.
Living in a massive squat in Amsterdam, with a 'dutch garden' covering the entire top floor. Roadtripping through student towns in north and central Europe, dodging neo-nazis and playing underground parties in factories and silos,
Seriously influenced by the hardline sounds and politics that defined the underground Tek movement there, I decided to devote almost a full day to making 'Antitrax' with a Pentium 1 and a Micromoog.
It shows.

 

50 handmade Cd copies were released independently in Australia thru 98/99 and 'ANTITRAX' has since been rereleased thru God Rekidz in New Zealand.

There are 3 tracks in the embedded audio player above, you flip between them using the buttons, genius:

ANTI ONE

ANTI TWO

ANTI THREE

From the God Rekidz liner notes for ANTITRAX:

"..demonstrates the ambivalence and extreme meaningless nature of techno. In this very very fine example of mindlessness the extremes of drug taking the boredom of the thud, the lack of enlightenment serves to remind us we are shit and boring and techno can actually promote a message. incredibly obvious subtlely."

Oh indeed.

This is the original 1997 -to audiotape mix of 'Tuff', mastered from the analog cassete. ts a tame mix by my standards but i was really feeling techno then and i still get a buzz listening to it. Turn it up LOUD!!
