staubgold 65 - hassle hound - "limelight cordial" cd/lp

hassle hound are a benign tornado, roaring and twisting through the best and most eclectic of record collections, ripping out and tearing off ideas and samples. they plunder for a reason – to make fragile and lovely music, often charmingly odd but with a gleeful melancholy, off-kilter but on the ball. there is a childlike quality to their music, but the child in question must be a musical prodigy with a wry sense of humour and a maturity beyond his years.

they are not afraid to be beautiful. machines and beats are caressed into soft humanity by delicate vocals, the boisterous cuddle of eccentrically played instruments and ingenious guitar patterns. here are wistful love songs which also sound like the greatest james bond theme ever (if those films had ever been made by a 60's new wave czech director). cartoon oneirics slapstick their way across lush countryside and toddle through town, favourite-uncle drunk and beaming expansively.

trying to pin them down is like drinking beer with a fork. they coin new genres like other bands do sound checks – too much funky not enough, crofter dub, genial noise, surf and turf guitar, carousel gothic, collagetronica. if harry partch had made music for ice-cream vans it might have been like some of these affable inventions.

sun / hasslehound : "sun / hasslehound"

sun

sun is the unusual pairing of world renowned experimental guitarist oren ambarchi and australian music figurehead chris townsend.

sun confirms its authors as two truly original music minds, a languid and sweet pop creation, brimming with sly invention in its classicist frame. these songs simply float into the consciousness with a grand air and sublimely delicate touch. there's an easy warmth to sun as well as some darker surprises for added depth and nuance

discographie:
sun s/t preservation (australie) staubgold (all) + cd remixes (mapstation, pluramon, pimmon, hrvatski, rafael toral …)

hassle hound

formed approximately two and a half years ago the group consists of tony swain (guitar & samples), lizzy swimmers (vocals & violin), david fulford (electronics & keyboards) and mark vernon (electronics & samples). hassle hound blend samples and loops from a variety of disparate sources, gelling them together with instrumentation to create quirky off-kilter pop songs. their sound is lush and melodic and always highly evocative, combining influences from a range of unlikely sources, taking in both the contemporary and the obsolete, high and low fidelity, the popular and the obscure.

the personnel:
david fulford currently lives in huddersfield, flies kites and works in a kite shop. lizzy swimmers currently lives and works in warsaw. she composes music for theatre productions: ‘morderstwo’ premiered in may 2000 and will be re-staged later this year. she has collaborated with marcus schmickler on a project for release on the pietho praxis/ @music label. tony swain currently lives and works in glasgow as a musician and painter. he has an ongoing output of both solo and collaborative projects and is currently establishing his own ‘civic records’ label as an outlet for these and other sound art projects. mark vernon lives and works in glasgow. he is involved in a range of audio activities including audio documentaries, soundscapes, radio production and soundtracks, which he has created for a number of short artists’ films (that’s short films by artists, not films by short artists). as well as working on a number of other collaborative sound/music projects he also co-runs ‘radio tuesday’ an art/pirate radio station that broadcasts in glasgow intermittently.

the group have played live extensively in scotland and france, alongside the likes of mum & dad, melt banana, vibracathedral orchestra and volcano the bear

discographie:
7'' on twisted nerve (7” singles club). 10'' on pickled egg records
