HENRY BIRSEY (USA)https://henrybirdsey.bandcamp.com/album/half-dragged https://henrybirdsey.bandcamp.com/album/laments-for-just-intonation-harpsichordAvailability: 10th May – 30th June 2021 Territories: Europe + UKHenry Birdsey is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and recording engineer from Vermont (currently based in New Haven, CT). His music is often drone-based and usually involves microtonal and just intonation tunings. He primarily plays lap steel and pedal steel. Recent and upcoming projects include Tongue Depressor (with Zach Rowden), a string quartet for Apartment House, an album of pieces for re-tuned bells and electronics with Max Eilbacher (of Horse Lords), and touring sound design and engineering for Kaija Saariaho. He’s performed nationally and internationally at venues such as Fylkingen (Stockholm), Cafe Oto (London), The Museum of Recent Art (Bucharest), The San Francisco Center for New Music, Brooklyn Academy of Music (NYC), The Barbican Centre (London), and The Hudson Opera House (Hudson, NY). He studied composition with Kyle Gann, Joan Tower, Matt Sargent, and Richard Teitelbaum.DUMA (Kenya)https://dumake.bandcamp.com/releasesAvailability: June 2022 Territory: BelgiumMartin Khanja (aka Lord Spike Heart) and Sam Karugu emerge from Nairobi’s flourishing underground metal scene as former members of the bands Lust of a Dying Breed and Seeds of Datura. Together in 2019 they formed Duma (Darkness in kikuyu) with Sam abandoning bass for production and guitars and Lord Spike Heart providing extreme vocals to the project. Their unique sound fuses the frenetic euphoria, unrelenting physicality and rebellious attitude of hardcore punk and trash metal with bone-crunching breakcore and raw, nihilist industrial noise through a claustrophobic vortex of visceral screams. Duma are a sinister force facing pain and difficult emotions head on is the place from which Khanja writes. A sonic aggression of feral intensity with disregard for styles, the duo promises to impact the hungry East African metal scene moving it into totally new, boundary-challenging experimental territories. Their self-titled debut album was released August 7th 2020 on Nyege Nyege Tapes and has received the best accolades from the press, including best album in several end-of-the-year lists (Metal Hammer, Pitchfork, The Wire, The Quietus…) Duma has a new 7″ dropping soon on Subpop’s singles club and a new AV collaboration with Jesse Kanda. A remix for Mdou Moctar and a collaborative album in the works with Indonesian duo ‘Gabber Modus Operandi’ and with Brazil metal band Deafbricks.ICHI (Japan)https://lostmap.bandcamp.com/album/maruAvailabilities: 27th and 30th May 2022 Territories: Belgium + The NetherlandsHailing from Nagoya’s underground scene, ICHI moved to the UK and Bristol after meeting English singer-songwriter Rachael Dadd, now his wife, at a small DIY festival in his hometown. He takes inspiration for his art from far and wide – a melting-pot of punk, reggae and dub, Henri Salvador, tribal music and old scratchy 78s. With his trusty sampler never far away ICHI spends hours poised, ready to capture the perfect water droplet or page flick, a process which he describes as being « like catching an animal ». Recorded entirely onto a four-track tape machine in his attic studio, Maru finds ICHI layering Heath Robinson-esque song-scapes crafted out of found objects and bizarre homemade instruments (stilt-bass, kalilaphone, hatbox-pedal-drum, skip-xylophone and tapumpet) with vocals depicting colourful characters. The album features guest vocals from This Is The Kit frontwoman Kate Stables, his wife Rachael Dadd and Lost Map’s own Rozi Plain.SUSS (USA)https://suss.bandcamp.com/Availability: 2022 Territories: Europe + UKWhat would it sound like if ambient pioneer Brian Eno had produced the Western film scores of Ennio Morricone? We’ll never know, but we’re now a step closer thanks to SUSS, an NYC quintet whose members (Bob Holmes, Pat Irwin, Gary Leib, Jonathan Gregg and William Garrett) have worked in various capacities with Lydia Lunch, the B-52s, Rubber Rodeo, k.d. Lang, David Bowie, John Cale, Ed Sheeran, Wilco, Norah Jones, The War On Drugs, Burt Bacharach, and countless others. More than a literal reconstruction of an imagined collaboration between Eno and Morricone, their debut album Ghost Box opened a door onto a world where ambient music and country-western make for natural bedfellows. That world, as it turns out, is the one we already live in — it just took someone to make the connection. For Grammy-nominated multi-instrumentalist and cowpunk pioneer Bob Holmes, that connection has been hiding in plain sight for decades. The catalyst behind SUSS, Holmes views electronic acts like Boards of Canada and shoegaze icons like My Bloody Valentine as more recent avatars of the « high lonesome » vibe that we tend to think of strictly in terms of traditional roots music. In that light, you can trace the melancholic sprawl of classic titles by both of those acts back to Hank Williams. Looking at that lineage in reverse then begs the question: What is twang, anyway, if not a form of ambiance?BRUNO DORELLA (Italy)https://brunodorella.bandcamp.com/Availability: 15th February – 15th March Territories: Benelux, Germany, FranceItalian multi-instrumentalist, only uses his own name for his composer series albums. Plays with OvO, Ronin, Bachi Da Pietra, Sigillim S, GDG Modern Trio, Tiresia, Jack Cannon.

I look forward to hearing from you. All the best.Alain

Booking offers (2021 #47)Dear all,Please find here under some musicians who are available for live concerts/performance. I am booking dates for them.Feel free to get in touch with me if you want to set up a performance/concert for one of them.ANNETTE KREBS (Germany)https://annettekrebs.bandcamp.com/album/konstruktion-1-2-sahAvailability: On request Territory: Europe + UKAnnette Krebs (born 1967) is a German composer, multi-instrumentalist, and performer. She grew up in Saarland and studied music and painting as a child, earning a diploma in classical guitar at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst in Frankfurt/Main in 1992. She is based in Berlin since 1993. Krebs is associated with the experimental music scene that emerged in Berlin following German reunification in 1990. Commonly referred to as « Berlin reductionism » and self-defined by active participants as « echtzeitmusik » (real-time music), the scene attempted to differentiate itself from dominant styles of improvisation dominated by Free Jazz and Free Improvisation by emphasizing composition over improvisation, both essential elements of unwritten music. The overall aesthetic approach to music which she likens to scientific experiments: « What I and many others are doing is discovering the new rules which apply to this material. If you are a physicist and you have a new material, then you place it in different environments and see how it reacts. » The primary materials in Krebs’ experimentation of sound color and timbre are guitar, computer with max/msp, found objects, radio, and diy-instruments. Her compositions integrate graphic scores, improvisation, recorded voice, field recordings, multi-channel outputs, and digital processing. Krebs is cited as a pioneer of Berlin « reductionism » which is characterized by « quiet unstable sounds, subdued group interaction, renunciation of gesture, and structural uses of silence. »ELI WINTER (USA) + CAMERON KNOWLER (USA)https://cameronknowlereliwinter.bandcamp.comAvailability; 27th May – 05th June 2022 Territories; France, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, BelgiumThe Trans-Pecos is a land of stark beauty, dotted with javelinas, ghost towns and small mountain ranges. There’s Marfa, known for its lights and minimalist art, and Terlingua, a tight-knit community of old-timers near the Texas-Mexico border; Alpine, 12,000 strong, is the region’s center. The winter holidays of 2018 found Cameron Knowler and Eli Winter touring through that part of the state. Each night they played solo and duo sets, interpreting traditional folk songs and showcasing their own, unifying seemingly disparate approaches to the guitar. Anticipation, the first album of gorgeous duets by the two young gun guitarists, is the product of this trip, documenting a musical juncture between desert and city, Chicago and the Southwest, folk traditions and America’s musical avant-garde.BEX BURCH (UK) & LEAFCUTTER JOHN (UK)https://leafcutterjohn.bandcamp.com/album/boingAvailability: On Request Territory: Europe [Beneux excluded]Boing! is her collaboration with Leafcutter John, a former art student who creates unique electronic sound sculptures in collaboration with various musicians (including Polar Bear, Shabaka Hutchings, Imogen Heap and Talvin Singh), sometimes using visual programming software, sometimes by processing outboard synth sounds in real time. On this improvised collaboration, you might expect the distinction between Leafcutter John’s FX-laden modular synths and Burch’s balafon to be stark – space-age electronic effects set against ancient classical African music – but the results are gloriously confused.I look forward to hearing from you soon.All the best.AlainSome Noise • Rue Timmermans, 16 – 1190 Brussels, BelgiumYou received this email as a customer or subscriber of Some Noise.

Booking offers (2021 #46)Dear all,I’m booking some dates for TAUPE, ROJIN SHARAFI and RESINA.Feel free to get in touch with me if you want to set up a concert/performance for one of them.

TAUPE (UK)Availability: September 2022 Territories: Europe + UKTaking risks only works if you’re willing to fail, and Taupe share an understanding that there’s no wrong way to play. A decade of friendship has conjured a spooky telekinesis that anchors the band, even when their improvisations teeter on the edge of total collapse. The three-piece – Jamie Stockbridge (alto sax), Mike Parr-Burman (guitar) and Adam Stapleford (drums) – are an explosive live band, veering from taut metronomic precision into intentionally turbulent, unchartered territory. A DIY ethos feeds their wonky compositions, colliding sour scatter-skronk with sludgy, doom-inspired riffs.ROJIN SHARAFI (Iran)https://rojinsharafi.bandcamp.com/album/karizAvailability: Feb: 15-28, Mar: 1-29, Apr: 11-30, May: 1-9 / 17-31, June: 1-26 Territories: Europe + UKShe is a sound artist and composer of acoustic, electro-acoustic, and electronic music. Her music crosses borders of different genres and keenly grabs from many musical buckets such as noise, folk, ambient, metal, and contemporary music. Her recent album Urns Waiting To Be Fed debuted in September via Zabte Sote / Opal Tapes labels and reviewed by The Quietus as « the unexpected » and « one of the most ecstatic and fiercely original hours of music ». She has performed in festivals such as SET x CTM 2018 in Tehran, Unsafe+Sounds 2018, and Hyperreality 2019 both in Vienna. In addition, her work has been presented internationally in cities like Basel, Berlin, Gent, New York City, and Washington DC. In 2019, she was invited as an artist in residence at Gouvernement in Belgium and in 2020 she will begin a new residency through Space21 and Borderline Festival in Athens and Kurdistan. She was awarded the 2018 Austrian female Composers prize at Wien Modern Festival.Rojin Sharafi is academically pursuing her masters in sound engineering and composition at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna where she is delving into a deeper research in digital music performance.RESINA (Poland)https://resina.bandcamp.com/album/speechless?label=3506673193&tab=musicAvailability: On request Territory: BelgiumBorn 1982, Karolina graduated from the Music Academy in Gdansk and the University of Gdansk. Active in Poland’s independent music scene since the late ’00s, she was co-founder / collaborator of some of Poland’s most influential alternative bands: Kings of Caramel, Cieslak and Princess, Nathalie And The Loners, Anthony Chorale and more. She has featured on numerous album releases and soundtracks (including the Oscar-nominated ‘Rabbit a la Berlin’), and has been the author of a dozen music productions for theatre. A compulsive live artist, Karolina’s style is primarily characterized by personal language of improvisation and alternative approach to melody. She has collaborated with Scott McCloud, Paul Brody, Piotr Kurek, Coldair, Scianka and many other artists.

I hope to hear from you very soon.All the best.Alain
