pica disk (norway) #pica 025 cd

tommi keränenbats in the attic” compact disc

  • bats in the attic (35:48)
october 2010 release ; awesome debut release (under his own name at least ; he’s been recording for a number of years as rulla & with lasse as testicle hazard) from anoema boss tommi keränen, recorded using the ems stockholm / fylkingen’s massive modular system(s ; i know they have an original buchla 200 there, possibly even an ems synthi-100) ...

this is a white-hot, squeaking morass of analogia that harkens back to classic ems work like akos rozmann’s “impulsioni” while keeping the contemporarysynth noise” of astro et.al in check ... great stuff !!!

keränen: bats in the attic

pica025. cd. released october 2010.

pica disk is proud to present “bats in the attic” - keränen’s solo debut full-length cd. this album has arrived to shatter finland’s pristine reputation. you thought they were a bunch of bland mobile-phone-touting nords? think again: from the swamps they came and to a swamp of blistering warped noise they now return. active for years as rulla, tommi keränen has been keener to raise hell on stage worldwide than to put in studio time. though he’s dirtied his hands as an incapacitants and pymathon collaborator and as a member of testicle hazard, gentle evil and les manures, solo releases have been rare indeed. his sound – messy, thick, out-of-control electronic chaos – now reaches boiling point, with source material recorded at the prestigious ems in stockholm using vintage analogue synthesizers.

incapacitantsburning orange” compact disc

  • incapacitants - orange smoke (28:27)
  • fumio tommikawa - out of schnaps (26:25)
january 2008 release ; smoldering remnants jointly conjured out of the cold winter mist by fumio kosakai & toshiji mikawa (with a guest appearance by tommianoemakeränen) at the 2008 all ears festival in oslo ...

incapacitants: burning orange

pica006. cd. released winter 2008.

incapacitants needs no introduction; the duo of fumio kosakai and t.mikawa; veterans and originators of japanese noise music; cult band number one for noise fanatics worldwide; a band whose infamous status as the best live noise act ever has continued to grow over the years because the duo almost never plays outside of japan.

in january 2007 incapacitants performed live, for the second time in europe in 25 years, at the all ears festival in oslo norway for an overly enthusiastic audience (people from all around europe had travelled to see their heroes). the band later described the two shows as highlights of their career.

burning orange documents these concerts. the cd consists of two complete sets; one incapacitants as a duo and on the second joined by finnish noise-connoisseur tommi keränen (testicle hazard) as a trio under the name of fumio tommiakawa (a take on gomikawa fumio; the trio of pain jerk and incapacitants).

the sound of incapacitants is described in the liner notes of burning orange by tommi keränen as "an inspiring, pure, all-encompassing, ecstatic storm of sound that has a power of near-religious proportions – and that alone, without any unnecessary gimmicks". that celebratory ecstasy certainly comes across on burning orange, of which keränen also handled the post-production under the supervision of mikawa.

segerhuva (sweden) #seger 18 lp

testicle hazard / golden serenadesmorning star b/w evening fix” long playing record

  • testicle hazard - morning star

  • golden serenades - evening fix
great split between lasse marhaug & tommi keranen’s testicle hazard... and john hegre & jørgen traen’s golden serenades... the former offer a solid block of power electronics, the latter a more scrape-oriented set... solid.

[seger 18]
testicle hazard / golden serenades
morning star / evening fix
lp

please get ready for a true heavy weight team-up on this split lp. testicle hazard (lasse marhaug + tommi keränen) deliver a side-long orgy of blistering fuzzed-out heaviness. this is a duo that has very quickly proved that they are indeed capable of producing some truly ear-shattering noise bliss - two noise maestros doing what they love and live for, and you can feel privileged to indulge in the result of their hard work.

golden serenades (john hegre + jørgen træen) immediately locks into a devastating groove (for lack of a more suitable term), and a terribly convincing assault of metal clattering and a non-stop moving mass of forceful sonic onslaught of the highest order. when these norwegian lads team up, you can expect nothing less than noise nirvana. if you have yet to experience the thrill of golden serenades, this is where you get *on*.

printed black/white matte covers - edition of 300 copies.

released november 2007.
