gameboy (japan) #gb 093 cd

sewer electionlast breath” compact disc recordable

  • last breath
gameboy press release...
gb93
sewer election :
last breath : cdr

sweden's finest forgoes his usual dense harsh noise in favor of equally dense dirty drones. it's still a wall of sound, but far from impenetrable. this wall is more likely to crumble with the slightest touch and leave you buried beneath the rubble. it's a different, but equally effective, methond of simultaneous attack and defense.

a short but epic piece, "last breath" unravels in under 20 minutes, but the coma it will induce is guaranteed to last for hours if not days. indeed this disc makes a perfect soundtrack for those precious moments spent dying, living, or lingering anywhere between the two.

cdr edition of 100. dedicated to dagmar lassander.

ideal (sweden) #ideal 058 cd

sewer electionkassettmusik” compact disc

  • kassettmusik (41:58)
2008 release ; a single continous mix of extremely ugly mouth-sounds (sounding not unlike someone trying to vomit, but being entirely unable to) from dan johansson ...

followers of dan’s prior work (on labels such as chondritic, hospital, gameboy, segerhuva, freak animal, troniks, etc ...) &/or the he more brutalist end of the schimpfluch spectrum could, really, do worse ...

sewer electionkassettmusik
cd album. ideal058 2008. digipack.

sewer election is dan johansson, based in gothenburg, sweden. he is most known for his extreme and nasty noise on often stupidly hot and limited edition cassettes and obscure vinyl and silver disc releases. what separates se from the rest of the wall-of-noise-heads is that he is actually very good at creating uncomfort and filth. to experience his stuff is like experiencing pure power and energy… but ”kassettmusik” is more than that and give us another side of sewer election. it’s still filthy but here the sources are decaying tape loops. they seem to be feeding on themselves. it makes you feel  uneasy and uncomfortable. if this is what you’re after – then ”kassettmusik” is your thing. when i first heard it i loved it and i still feel uncomfortable listening to it even after a hundred listenings. now, that’s quality for you.

moments captured and repeated in raw mono. contact mic, cassette loops + cassette amplifier. recorded april 2007. limited to 500 copies. comes in a sexy b/w digipack.

throne heap (usa) #th os 2 lp

sewer electionvittra sönder” long playing record

  • att falla (16:21)

  • bilder av dig (15:22)
january 2012 release ; ... over the past decade, sweden’s dansewer electionjohansson has, quietly, been issuing some of the most forward-thinking music to come out of the wholeharsh noise” sector (2009’s self-released cassette vidöppna sår” - later released on lp by pan - is but one example) ...

... even calling this “noise” is something of a misnomer ; while the tail-end of “att falla” does have a kind of schimpfluch-ian gross-ness to it, the majority of this record comes closer to the in-situ, room-tone / drone antics & tape-warble of any number of “private”, “real”, “outsider” outings of the last 3-odd decades (i’m reminded, in equal measures throughout, of yoshi wada, the various aktionist audio-art pieces, and even the “presque rien” of luc ferrari ... albeit in a gain-staged morass of frayed ferrite) ...

... an amazing, singular record ; highly recommended !!!
throne heap press release...
sewer election - vittra sönder lp

tape manipulation and metal abuse at it's absolute finest. a few minutes of primitive organ melody mark the a-side of this lp, while the flipside features some percussive stabs so sparsely placed that they could nearly be counted on one hand.

although these musical passages are brief, they are worth mentioning as they significantly compliment the overall mood & pacing of the album. deep within the grooves of vittra sönder the musique truly meets the concrète.

recorded at utmarken gothenburg, sweden 2010-2011.

v/a - like a frog in winter - lp + 7" set

i started putting this compilation together in 2004 while residing in providence. at that time the climate of noise was rather hi-fi, technological, and cold. this was the start of noise as entertainment rather than entertaining. personal communication became lost. noise became something clean. something stimulating.

in response i started putting together a list of new bands at the time that i felt represented a more psychological, minimal, dismal, and rejected feeling that to me was one of a fire place having smoldered out after a night of burning.

aside from the sound i wanted to see a return to the fetishistic and erotic attitude of noise... and a negative one at that.... again in response to what i saw as a call for positive noise.

i asked the artists to think about the theme of inevitability. of being unable to escape ones own attractions and being slaves to desire. each one approached this topic differently and sometimes in very contradiction to the theme as you will see. many of these artists have continued on to establish themselves while others have vanished into the ether. however this is the terms upon which this work came forth to offer again a refreshingly negative perspective on this human game we play called life.

compiled on lp and seven inch set with mini poster.

support deviance!

segerhuva press release...
[seger 14]
various artists
sweetness will overcome
cd

here it is: the first segerhuva compilation, a massive 74-minute budget priced cd with a 20-page booklet in jewelcase. the cd is filled from beginning to end with a strong and exciting line-up of both well known and newer groups, mainly from sweden, but also with contributions from finland and japan. we are thrilled to be able to present a solid mix of sounds, from the most punishing ultra-harsh electronics, via the primitively thuggish all the way to the cocktail-sipping arty. yes, we have room for all -- please join the party.

"sweetness will overcome" features a wide range of artists making it a diverse and interesting affair. our tribute to a stagnating but in a strange sense healthy scene! without further preaching: all tracks are new and exclusively recorded for this compilation, all served with pleasure and pain.
