Sindre Bjerga – Songs of Failure

“Somebody who has had a lot of releases, but also someone who plays a lot of concerts is Norwegian Sindre Bjerga. Here he has here two pieces of almost equal length and while there is no information on the cover, I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that these recordings are made during one of his many concerts (or actually two concerts). Bjerga works with small amplified acoustic sounds (say one or two metal plates), a radio, one or two sound effects and a small mixer. The sort of set up which fits easily in a bag and ‘have bag will travel’ does the rest. This results in these two pieces of darker electronic drone material, the acoustic rumble and a slow build up and let sounds play their role, while lulling the audience to their comfort zone, into a state of shimmering sleep, or just about to wake up. Something like that. Bjerga takes his time and that works well. He demands and gets a quiet audience and like a zen monk takes control. Here’s somebody you should see when he’s in your town.“

Dead Wood – Forest
CDR
Disc Plus UK Postage £3.00
Disc Plus ROW Postage £5.00
“Guitars are to be found on the release by Dead Wood, the musical project of Adam Baker, who runs his own label Dirty Demos (although we haven’t seen a new release in some time). His musical output is scattered all over the musical scenery, but here it’s all about electric guitar, feedback, sound effects and improvisation, and some of this in a noise related manner. This is not exactly easy listening music by any standard, but fine sturdy [sic] experimental/improvised music for guitar and electronics.“
