Another ripsnorter line-up, if I do say so myself. Can't wait to see Discobeans godmother Yuka's new duo collab with Mel Toxic Lipstick, and James Rushford/Jess Pinney/Simon Hanselmann's Tight Passage. "Sludgy Psych Shit" according to James. Bonza.
Couldn't be happier with how this series has been going so far. Thanks heaps to everyone that has played and attended these gigs! Onward!

SWEATMAN & KENNEDY INC. @ DISCOBEANS - 04/04/11

First time duo collab with one of my favourite Melbourne drummers Bryce Sweatman (Psychward Cult/Pathetic Human/Chrome Dome/The Zingers) - sweet! We've been jamming and recording some dark vibes lately using processed percussion/vocals/keyboard kinda shit. Also really looking forward to Harriet Morgan (Psychward Cult/Murgh'terr) playing solo under the highly enjoyable name Military Position.

BLACK MARKET @ Noise Bar

Very stoked to be playing solo at the first of a new weekly gig at Noise Bar. And SFHS a couple of weeks after that! Support!

FUCKED @ KIPL 28/03/11

Another Fucked gig next week!

"Globe-trotting glass eater Lucas Abela has made a career out of exploring the extreme side of sound. First it was with turntables attached to saw horses with sewing machine motors, briefly Freddy Krugger-styled record needle gloves, then it was a contact mic'd trampoline. For the last few years, under the guise of Justice Yeldham, it's been glass.

Starting each performance with a large sheet of glass, a contact mic and an array of effect pedals. Performances last as long as the glass can withstand the pressure of Mr Abela's face.

Sabbatical is proud to present this rare Justice Yeldham performance as Mr Abela stops over in Melbourne on his way to who knows where.

KIPL custodians and all-round excellent gents Wife will kick off proceedings, followed by the interminable noise assault of Fucked. Offering a welcome respite, Miles Brown & Shags Chamberlain will cleanse the aural palette with their theremin and synth explorations.

Finally, Justice Yeldham will perform on a couch. Seriously, that was his only rider request - a couch to perform on.

It's an early start for an early end. It is a Monday night after all.

Monday, 28 March 2011
7.30pm

Seven dollars entry

KIPL, 136 Roden Street, West Melbourne"

FUCKED @ The Tote 20/03/11

"Many in Melbourne first witnessed the power of Defektro Live at KTL (Featuring Stephen O'Malley of SUNN O))) in June 2008. And it has been a long long wait for his return.
In the time between, "Metal_And_Bone_Servitude", a studio collaboration between Defektro and The Bastard Noise was released, selling out almost instantly and becoming a cult hit with lovers of noise worldwide.
Formed in Tokyo, Japan in 1995 as a three piece industrial/noise unit, Defektro is currently the one man operation of Hirofumi Uchino and based in Sydney.
Hirofumi is known and respected worldwide as much for the instruments and effects pedals he builds as the extreme forms of music he creates with them.

Live performances from this truly unique artist are all too rare. It is with great honour that WeEmptyRooms is able to present this event with such a quality lineup at one of Melbourne's greatest live venues.

Also WeEmptyRooms will be doing some killer deals on all label stock and distro at the mercy desk so vinyl lovers bring ya dosh."

FUCKED

Lloyd Honeybrook - horrendous blown-out saxophonics

Robbie Avenaim -ultrablasts and robodrums

Nik Kennedy - oral gymnastics

R.I.P. stupid myspace band bios

"one day in june 2007 FRED THE SHREDDER and JAMES DESTROYER decided they wanted to start a fucking sick brutal death/grind band like devourment and cannible corpse!!! then they needed a really fast drummer to complete the lineup so they asked Freds sisters friend Bob if he would like to play drums. He said "Yes!" and FESTERING BLOODFUCK was born!!!! After 5 mad rehearsals in the DEATH SHED we did our first concert with triangle banana, deep within disconformity and barry & the burps at the bundoora youth centre and it was fucking sick and everyone was moshing heaps!!! then Freds mum said we arent allowed to jam in the shed anymore so when we find a new place to jam were gonna make some shirts and record the ULTRAFESTATION BLOODFUCKING DEMO CD-R which will be the heaviest shit weve ever done!! Pre orders available now!!! Songs online soon!! Any record labels wanna release this sick shit get in touch!!!

RCKTSRGRY @ Make It Up Club - 15/03/11

 Breath and the occult art of the ancient XYZ coordinate radiomap feature in this week's concert. Sydney voice artist Tony Osborne returns with his extended, jumbled and reconfigured explorations of the possibilities of vocal enunciation and (in)communicative action. RCKTSRGRY make a rare appearance that expands the limits of the space/time/sound intra-dimension. And the raw power of really smooth screeching/howling by local voice-master, Shane Van Den Akker.

• MADHEAD AKA Tony Osborne (Syd) (solo vocals and electronics)
• RCKTSRGRY featuring Nik Kennedy (adapted instruments and electronics) and Tina Douglas (hacked'n'cracked wiimote)
• Shane Van Den Akker (voice)

Discobeans March!

www.discobeans.com

Discobeans monthly gig #2!! This one is looking like a cracker with another nice varied line-up. I think this will be the 2nd Ove-Naxx show since he moved to Melbourne from Osaka, and I'm especially stoked to finally see Liam Haryono's (from Psychward Cult / Pathetic Human / Flesh World etc) Tea & Sympathy Symphony solo project for the first time.

The February gig was really great - big turnout and very solid performances all round. Thanks to everyone that came down. I took this crappy pic of Clickjaw's set on my phone:

Laptops/Nintendo Wii controller/interactive visuals/voice combo was intense and had the audience completely entranced, especially during the squirm-inducing webcam transfusion finale which left everyone speechless and in a gloriously uncomfortable silence when the set ended. A magic moment!

HOLY BONER @ IDGAFF

"Shane Van Den Akker and Corey Keem's Improvised noise duo "I Do'd It" perform their second gig as part of this event. Kicks off early, 5pm. "I Do'd It" are on first, experimental noisecore act "Holy Boner" on second and the almighty rock gods and godess "Fred" to take it home. Bring your earplugs! Bruta-ful noise!"

Early! 

Be early!
