Have you any idea of it?
Please let me introduce Kirik Cizgi to you.
It’s a keyboard-bass-drums trio with post punk inspired irrational melodic structures.
In Koppány’s view: „They are a bit like cooler No Wave bands like Bush Tetras or Talking Heads. But when I hear them I always have Czech bands in my mind,
like Psí Vojaci, Uz Jsme Doma, or sometimes the Russian N.O.M. (the early).
But Csikar had right when he said, ‘the Turkish Dragibus’, which is true for a few songs.”

Sacrifice EP on Robotic Empire (US)

Aussie New Wave Punk. A mix of Joy Division, Devo, Gary Newman spiced with a little Pet Shop Boys by Mikey Young’s umpteenth band Total Control. It has started as a synth-punk duo with the drummer of UV Race, but „bands with drum machines and three synths are just not as much fun to watch as bands with drummers and guitars. We realized it couldn’t be good live, so we tried to adapt the songs to work in a rock-and-roll band.”

„Typical System” album on Iron Lung Records (US) in June. Distros: La Vida Es Un Mus (UK), Inertia (AUS)

Other Mikey Young’s bands: Eddie Current Suppression Ring (garage rock), Ooga Boogas (new wave), Lace Curtain (electro disco)

„I started in September 2009. I had been in London during the Summer, and I was so miserable about being back home. I was just sitting in my room and thinking that I needed a hobby for the long Estonian winter. So I made a track called Lovecool.” Estonian art historian and synth pop artist Maria Minerva has sketched a soulful self-portrait of her own inner ecosystem of loves and labors lost to her new album. She has cited Brian Eno, Throbbing Gristle and Cabaret Voltaire as her influences.

„Histrionic” album on Not Not Fun

„I gave myself permission to make really bad electronic music on my computer.”

Caroline Polachek (from the American synth pop duo Chairlift) has made a solo album during her band’s tour last year. It was written and recorded in hotel room closets, airport terminals and airplane bathrooms alone. 80’s new wave synth pop with a little sacral attitude.

She is a very special woman. „Cicadas are my favorite bug because they’re underground for seven years, and when they come out, they’re only out for the tiniest amount of time. They’re such romantic creatures.”

“Whether you’re pining after old things or looking for the new, kindness doesn’t show itself in this world where love is scarce. Miss Whiskey will show you kindness.”

from the Longing for the Past: The 78 rpm Era in Southeast Asia box set by Dust to Digital

The Burmese actor, U Myat Lay sings this very strange, drunken song. It was „original sound track” of a silent film, Miss Whiskey in the 1930s. The silent film songs released on 78 rpm records at that time. These were excellent promotional tools, and frequently, the musicians who recorded a song would also perform when the movie was shown in the big city theaters in Burma.

In consequence of three Anglo-Burmese Wars there were many Scotsmen in that time. The first war officially broke out in 1824, because expansion of the Burmese Empire reached the British sphere of interest in India. In the end of war „The question is not how much you will cede to us but how much we shall return to you.” In 1885, in the end of third war the answer was: nothing. This war was a preventive act, because France took a growing interest in rest of Burma. Otherwise Myat Lay could have sung about Mlle Cognac.
Burma gained its independence in 1947. Since then there: or/and: civil war, coup d’état, military government, rebellion, turbulence.

If you interested in the Burmese weekdays under British rule, there was a police officer in the Indian Imperial Police in Burma from 1922 to 1927, who wrote a novel about it. You can read it in English here. Magyarul itt.

The cult & legendary proto-punk & pre-new wave band DEVO‘s double album

„Új Látásmód Fúzió: egy kimért modorú szinti-pank, aki a végítélet előtti utolsó pillanatok presszó-rockját játssza. „ (rnr666)

Az 1992-ben alakult ÚLF az obskurus hazai szinti szintér egyik kultikus együttese, mely tlkp Gáspár Kornéllal egyenlő . Zenéje mélabús dekadens casio-szinti-punk, minimalista szinti-pop, iparias cold wave és analóg elektro cuccok egyfajta avantgarde giccs kabaréja.

Első ÚLF élményem a Csajok a pokolból címet viselő első RNR666 bulin volt. Addig még csak nem is hallottam róluk. Hevertem egy kanapén, néztem, hallgattam. Mivel nem szeretem túlságosan ezt a fajta muzsikát, rövid idő múlva megkérdeztem magamtól, hogy – Hát hülye vagyok én, hogy ezt a szart hallgatom? és menni akartam, de nem tudtam otthagyni. A koncert folyamán ez párszor megismétlődött. Azóta gondolom, hogy ez az ember tud valami különlegeset.

1. Mi volt az első saját lemezed?
Vagy az Edda Művek 1. vagy a 100 Folk Celsius Ohio című mesterműve, még a Drosztmér Pistás depresszív szocio-country időszakukból

2. Mi a kedvenc lemezed?
Erre nagyon nehéz válaszolni, de ha nagyon kell, akkor: külföldiek közül Invasion Planete Records – összes… magyarok közül Korda 1976-os, Boldog Idők albuma…az egész korongot áthatja egyfajta kicsattanó dinamikájú, konyakgőzben szárnyaló éteri romantika.

3. Milyen lemezt hallgattál utoljára?
Fad Gadget korai alkotásait hallgattam a napokban…a legprímább, igazán nyers new wave az Aranykorból… akárcsak Snowy Red művei.. sajnos már mindkét alkotó az Égi Mezőkröl figyel minket…

Az első ÚLF vinyl nagylemez

mindjárt megjelenik a 4mg records gondozásában.
Kapható ott vagy itt.

The Canadian Nikki Nevver has been making music under Terror Bird moniker for about nine years ago. In the beginning she was alone, but after three years a live band formed around her. In the first line up were a band mate from the synthpunk Modern Creatures (where she played bass) and the drummer of the punk Nu Sensae (Point of interest: he is the drummer and one song co-writer on the Hairdresser Blues album by Hunx And His Punx in 2012.) All the same Terror Bird is a new wave synth pop project, because Nikki Nevver has influenced by minimal wave, dark wave, and 80’s goth, for example: New Order, Depeche Mode, Alphaville, OMD, Human League, Ultravox, Gary Numan etc. The actual line up: NN – electronic drums and vocal, Liane – cello, Jen – synth.

The 3rd TB LP is out now by Nightschool Records.

Terror Bird is on Euro Tour. You can find the dates here.
