Current mood:EAFMC-ist
I choose to make it public on this day.
It's the "Interzone X-mass Day", so it's appropriate.
EAFMC is a new Art Current, PUBLIC, that stole the few Ideas of CC and make them useful and personal.
Soon in 2010 be out an indipendent film (zero budget but very cool) and then the making of three albums with many artists...
SERIOUS SHIT. NO JOKES ON THE TREMBLING CANVAS.

EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER,

dANi/Alvo’s M A N I F E S T O, 2008 E.V.

90 Ninety N I N E T YYears
Later
THE WORLD IS DEAD.
I think it’s fair to resume a topic they let go adrift, the Iron Age is here, and we need to stir things up, enter history books, scar them with bad taste, class, mood swings, veins and smiles, and let our kids understand how absurd those times have been. From this moment on, we want most of Absurdity to be emotionally ours and NO SOUND “Mood-ianic”, ideal word referring to an Art sublimated by the perfect connection of one’s mood facing Horror, or any feeling linked to the temporary loss of WHAT A LOVELY PUPPY Joy. Therapeutic Pain and Horror? Maybe. Aesthetic Horror and Pain? Maybe.

But NO Self-induced Pain, what a Horror!

Horror H O R R O R HORREUR = KEY WORD OF THE EDGAR ALLAN FISH
MEMORIAL CENTER.

Imagined Horror and QUITE IDIOT Physically Committed Horror by two figures:
The first, Man, wrote short stories and Legends. He committed Horror On The Soul. Horror is not free from laughs or possible auscultations, watch out and beware the Ogre.
The second, Man, ate little people and Souls. He committed Horror On The Body. This kind of Horror must be ridiculed with bad taste and auscultated to be exorcized, watch out and beware the one who became The Ogre.
Distinguish them.
Avoid Suicide.
Don’t suffer Horror, mime it, jeer at it.
Take your life back from the attics, don’t clean it, keep it dirty, spit it A HOLE covered by spider webs saliva archaic horror on the Secretariat of State, on Mental Hospitals, on Bankers. We Are Sincere Charlatans, wait for TROUBLE.

Let all works, written, painted, filmed, recorded, reflect all this and be created at the same time, with celerity, insanity, laughs, brown shoes and umbrellas in our mouths. With taste and the awareness that they can be missing, sometimes. Provoking is good, being idiot is not. Let’s destroy criticism once and for all, or let it avoid considering us as pathologic cases.

What we owe to Surrealists and, even more, to mister Hugo Ball and Tristan Tzara, lively and passionately emerges from those lines; reading this, may them understand that their lesson will be learned, and interpreted following our taste and the cyclic nature of events that are repeating. We thank them and invite them to watch with us over this sea current, may it bring onshore precious and masticable shells.

Mental cannibalism is not forbidden, psychic vampirism is.

Mental and physical handicapped are always welcome, we’re not scared of rats or of attics or basements we live in. May the Edgar Allan Fish Memorial Center bring us all we are looking for: the shake, the move, the Checkmate, the rickety Psycho with screw teeth and repetitive arms, present avant-garde is stupid stupid stupid, Let’s study the past to obtain just a little mechanical with a rubber band dirty fruits that turn out juicy and not poisonous when washed, let’s try to dream of fishes on houses in chicken feet, even though Russia is far – no political implications-, let’s decide who’s gonna be it, let’s choose who will be surprised with the final result, let’s do our best to cheat sincerity, goodness, modern mankind.
Let it wake up!

The EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER therefore offers and will offer old Turkish music, new 1920 avant-garde, no cats around, feel free to scream, blares to be seen and voices to be heard (tasty ones)…Post-DADAists and Post-Surrealists by mere time matters, Pre-Actionists, Maybe-Situationists and Shamans by aptitude, hot tiny lizards and screaming monkeys on an unbelievable Friday, these are your Carrots.

Briefly:
Whoever is recruited to take part in these operations will be welcome. And they will be already stuck in them, much to their regret, when reading this letter, they will find it already signed.

A Warm WELCOME by the Director,

__________dANi/ALvo________________________




We Are Sincere Charlatans, wait for TROUBLE.

... young boy started walking in Darkness ;)"
You may check out another Testing Vault unreleased song that was edited for a video of PAN, the singer of Phantasmagoria. A wonderful demon-stration of thy Butoh Dance. Dai Rakuda Kan and Hijikata should be proud to have such beautiful child all over the world.

The song is called "Young Boy Lying In Darkness" and you can check out the video at PAN's link.

En-JOY.
dANi/ALvo and Pan, for a revolving incarnation of Testing Vault. Babbling Against Your Demons, My Children.

Prices of preorder items INCLUDE postage through priority mail everywhere; for registered shipping (recommended for limited edition versions): just ask.

ITALIANO:
Dal 15 di novembre saranno disponibili due novità Final Muzik molto attese: “Decade”, il nuovo CD degli ALL MY FAITH LOST (in due edizioni, una delle quali limitatissima) e il preziosissimo doppio CDr “Winter Fragments” di APART.
Per entrambe le produzioni, se ordinate entro il 15 novembre, offriamo ai nostri clienti la possibilità di preordinarli a prezzo speciale (prezzo che include le spese postali come posta prioritaria; per raccomandata richiedeteci le tariffe).
Come funziona? Come per ogni preordine, molto semplicemente: ci richiedete i titoli, inviate il pagamento (N.B.: il preordine è valido SOLO se fatto entro la data stabilita e a pagamento avvenuto entro la stessa), e appena disponibili i titoli vi verranno inviati immediatamente...
N.B.: il preordine a prezzo speciale è valido SOLO fino al 15 novembre; dopo questa data le due produzioni verranno distribuite a un più alto prezzo standard.
ATTENZIONE: fate ora il vostro ordine, i due titoli sono disponibili in versioni e edizioni molto limitate!


ALL MY FAITH LOST... "Decade" CD (Final Muzik) FM17.
“Decade” is the NEW CD by well-know ethereal/..romantic darkwave act All My Faith Lost...! Length: 28.52, equivalent of a mini-album.
Available in digi-slim sleeve, including all new / unreleased tracks + a new, brilliant version of “Land's End” (originally available on Final Muzik's “Tal Mont De Lune” CD compilation). “Decade” has been released to celebrate the first 10 years of All My Faith Lost, featuring (as a big “thank you!”) some guests and friends who have supported and helped the band during these years.
The mini-album has been officially licensed from Cold Meat Industry (thank you, Roger), and it has been remastered by Mr. Peter Andersson (Raison D'Etre). A little masterpiece of melancholy and romantic poetry, highly recommended to all fans of this amazing band!
I'm very happy and deeply honored that this 10th anniversary album wll be available through Final Muzik, after releasing “In A Sea, In A Lake...” debut CD about eight years ago, on my old Sin Organisation label. Circles never end...
Tracklist: Drowning / Ancora / Land's End / Angelike pt. III / Damnation / Apart / Still / Caligo / Angelike pt. II
Viola Roccagli: Vocals, Flute, Synth and Lyrics; Federico Salvador: Guitars, Vocals and Lyrics; with Angelo Roccagli: Guitar, Fabio Polo: Violin and a lot more, Stefania Pellizzer: Cello, + more special guests.
TWO EDITIONS AVAILABLE:
1 - Limited edition of 100 copies (less than 80 for sale: collectors' item!), for fans and collectors: available on preorder or through our web ONLY. Strictly limited, including an extra mini-set of beautiful postcards + two pins of the band. Collectors and fans: hurry! Preorder price (including priority postage): € 15,90
2 - Normal edition: 1.100 copies , in nice digi-slim package. Preorder price (including priority postage): € 9,90


APART "Winter Fragments” 2XCDr (Final Muzik) FM16.
Trust me: this IS one of THE BEST albums ever released by Final Muzik! And...what a precious release!
It's a strictly limited double CDr, an highly professional release with fabulous artwork and fantastic packaging (a “large digipak” for double labums, like our “Program Vol. 1” compilation, remember?). The title "Winter Fragments” sums up two Apart unreleased albums, put together for this special release: “Fragments Of A Cold Broken Day” and “A Winter Project...”. Both albums end a “phase” for this project, born with “Across The Empty Night” and then developed through different (dark) music styles on this double, precious gem! Ex-All My Faith Lost member and co-founder Francis Gri collected over 110 minutes of superb music: mixing different influences and his own research, the link with his original band became thin, but it's even “emotionally” stronger now.
Music is delicate, romantic, with ardent and melancholic soundscapes, subtle arrangements, dark piano parts, female + male vocals, cinematic instrumental pieces and cold ambient tracks, unforgettable melodies and refined sound-..structures.
Fans of pure, high quality ethereal music, ambient and dark wave will LOVE it. We're very enthusiast about this release, and we'd recommend it to anyone into ethereal darkwave, early-Black Tape For A Blue Girl, Cocteau Twins, instrumental post-rock, Labradford, Stars Of The Lid, Björk, soundtrack-..like ambient music.
Music and arrangements: Francis Gri; male vocals: Daniele Crovato, female vocals: Lilium; cello: Martina Bertoni; drums: Maximilian Bremer.
ATTENTION please: strictly limited edition of 175 copies ONLY (about only 150 for sale!!!): order your copy now. More music from Francis Gri is in preparation, circles never end...
Preorder price (including priority postage): € 15,90

FINAL MUZIK INFO – Settembre 2009

Final Muzik Info: bollettino mensile e flash informativo sulle attività di Final Muzik

Ciao a tutti,
Rieccoci di ritorno dopo un agosto praticamente trascorso in posta a spedire pacchi e pacchetti. Prima di iniziare, un sentito ringraziamento a tutte le tantissime persone che, fra mail order e produzioni, si sono interessate alle attività di Final Muzik attraverso ordini e richieste. A tutte loro la prossima settimana arriverà un messaggio e-mail molto speciale. Se il mail order procede toccando territori musicali eterogenei (vedi la nostra Top 7 di agosto), l'attività di Final Muzik come label sta assumendo dei contorni piuttosto definiti. Di seguito, le novità principali (prossime uscite e NUOVA ETICHETTA), due appuntamenti collegati all'etichetta, altre news su realtà e eventi a noi collegati (non previsti in Friuli, news queste già ricordate a parte), i CD più venduti, la rassegna stampa di “Vers Le Vide” di Nocturne. In questo numero, quindi, più info e notizie; anche se richiesto da molti, l'..aggiornamento arriverà la prossima settimana (fateci accumulare un po' di cosette), dopo la mostra del disco di Trieste, con il consueto elenco di titoli vecchi e nuovi di “musica per il terzo orecchio”. Copiate/..incollate i link nel caso trovaste problemi di accesso.

NEWS:
-Prossime uscite Final Muzik: in preparazione gli ultimi due CDr professionali che chiuderanno la cosiddetta Final Muzik Special Serie: si tratta del favoloso “Phantasmagoria..” di TESTING VAULT
e del debutto, sebbene con materiale d'archivio, del convincente progetto dark ambient friulano PRIORATVM. Due novità dal catalogo Final Muzik chiuderanno il 2009: un doppio CDr in edizione elegante e limitatissima per APART (che chiude il cerchio sulla prima parte della discografia dell'ex All My Faith Lost, Francis Gri), e un nuovissimo CD EP proprio per gli ALL MY FAITH LOST, che uscirà in esclusiva per Final Muzik con il consenso della Cold Meat Industry. Sarà un finale d'anno col botto: prenotate ora le vostre copie.
-2010 – NUOVA ETICHETTA: si tratta di un'..anticipazione che rappresenta anche un invito; col prossimo anno Final Muzik partirà con EIGHTIES, una nuova etichetta / collana dedicata alla ristampa di vecchio materiale originariamente.. su nastro, pubblicato negli anni '80: wave, industrial, musica sperimentale, punk. Abbiamo già definito alcune produzioni che, per ora, rimangono una sorpresa; se fra i lettori della newsletter vi sono componenti di band o progetti dell'epoca, si facciano pure vivi per eventuali proposte di ristampe del loro materiale.

EVENTI / FINAL MUZIK:
-Final Muzik sarà presente con un suo stand all'8^ MOSTRA DEL DISCO di TRIESTE – domenica 13 SETTEMBRE 2009 - c/o “Palasport Chiarbola” - Via Visinada, 7 – Trieste (I) - bus linea 1 dalla stazione. Orario continuato: 10.00 – 19.00 - Vi aspettiamo numerosi e ricordiamo che potete scriverci entro sabato 12 settembre ore 12.30 per richiederci i titoli presenti sul nostro catalogo (
www...finalmuzik.com e www...discogs...com/..seller/..Final-Muzik); vi porteremo tutto alla mostra. Un grande grazie a Maurizio Giugovaz e a tutte le persone che ci hanno già confermato la loro presenza. Seguirà domani l'ultimo comunicato stampa specifico.

-“Drawning At An Exhibition” il nuovo lavoro grafico-..musicale di DBPIT & XXENA, da poco pubblicato su Final Muzik, é stato presentato alla mostra SGUARDI SONORI 2009 (che vi invitiamo ovviamente a visitare) aperta fino al 20 settembre presso il Centro Monumentale S.Michele in Ripa, Roma. Info:
www...derbekannte.com / www.xxena.net / www...faticart.org – Video presentazione mostra: www...c6...tv/..archivio?..task=..view&id=5714

EVENTI / FRIENDS:

Allerseelen, Horologium, Teatro Satanico, Wournos Aileen e Tears Of Othila sono i gruppi che si esibiranno dalle ore 21.00. Vi raccomandiamo di andare a stressare con forza Rodolfo presso il suo stand, con continue domande tipo “Ma...la seconda parte del dodicesimo album di Merzbow è meglio dei primi quattro pezzi del secondo vinile del ventiquattresim..o LP?”, oppure: “Hai dischi noise? Si?! Ma scusa, noise...in che senso scusa, tu cosa intendi con noise?”, oppure ancora “Ho un progetto dark ambient / glitch che presto uscirà prima con il primo download-..only-live-EP disponibile sul nostro myspace, poi con un CDr in 37 copie in Sudafrica, ma anche se siamo ben avviati cercavamo un'etichetta interessata blablabla”; insomma, salutateci tanto il trio delle meraviglie Rodolfo + Toni + Danilo! www...myspace...com/..nerorchestra

-NOCTURNE “Vers Le Vide” CD (Final Muzik): RASSEGNA STAMPA
-ROCKERILLA 347/348 - numero doppio luglio/..settembre 2009 – di Aldo Chimenti - “...Quasi un’ora di musica da tagliare col coltello il cui ascolto, fatto raro in questi ambiti, è volato via come un soffio! La cifra sonora di Nocturne entra in circolo come una pozione di forze ipnotiche che altera la cognizione del tempo, come un fenomeno di trance magica che fa leva sull’impulso elettronico conferendo ai tracciati di “Vers Le Vide” una valenza cerebrale sin più invasiva rispetto alle prove licenziate in passato dall’artista francese. 16 strumentali che catapultano in una piega del cosmo laddove vige una legge di gravità rovesciata, di inerzia attiva che sospende il ritmo delle cose ed ingenera una sensazione di deliquio catartico, di oscura calma immanente. Dark-ambient alle soglie dell’impossibil..e? O più semplicemente una lenta agonia verso il nudo vuoto del nulla oltre il nulla?...”
-BLOW UP # 136 Settembre 2009 – Paolo Bertoni - “...Il percorso di Nocturne lo abbiamo seguito con puntiglio (BU#10, 21, 38/39, 49, 98/99) e attraverso progressive tappe d’avvicinamento.. l’elemento di più evidente ceppo industriale, presente massicciamente in taluni momenti anche del precedente “Fleisch Und Metall”, si è progressivament..e attenuato, orientandosi, almeno nell’odierno “Vers le vide”, più sensibilmente verso lidi meno inclini al catastrofismo ma più marcatamente segnati da solchi di grave nostalgia e funeree suggestioni. Alle radici del progetto francese il riferimento ai conflitti che hanno scosso l’Europa nel secolo scorso è tenacemente preservato e lo conferma inequivocabilme..nte l’alone epico e di ferma marzialità che circonda episodi come Rachel, accompagnata nel suo fluire dall’eco di esplosioni e tragedie, che si specchiano con l’ineluttabilit..à del dolore individuale - ben esemplificato dal vociare indistinto di uomini e donne, che materializza l’immagine di frenetiche fughe nella Francia occupata in Nous irons tous au paradis - inutilmente speso in prospettive mai avvenute e destinato poi ad universalizzars..i anonimamente in un apatico declino, come peraltro avviene anche in frangenti più meditativi come Songe o Quand vient la fin…, prossima alle angosciose sospensioni temporali di attese e paura suggerite dalle tre tranche di matrice dark ambient di Pressentiment. (7/8)...“
-ROSA SELVAGGIA – Estate 2009 (
www...rosaselvaggia...com) di Oflorenz - “...“Vers le Vide” esplora il lato più sperimentale ed “ambient” del genere, a scapito dell’epica e sinfonica marzialità che contraddistingu..e solitamente le uscite del filone; più Raison D’Être che Dernière Volonté, per dirla con una battuta. Un disco da acoltare più volte, prima di coglierne il succo, seppur ad una prima impressione emergano già alcuni episodi di notevole impatto emotivo, come ad esempio nell’angosciant..e “ Rache!”. Il lato più oscuro dell’avanguardi..a industrial-..ambient transalpina...”

This release has nearly the same quality of a CD release: professional CDr, print, and beautiful poster-like cover/sleeve (if you're familiar with other Final Muzik releases, well this one isn't far from Corpoparassita'..s FM06 CD/sleeve packaging). Mushy is well-known in Italy for her live concerts and for an older CDr on Cold Current label. “Superfetazione..” shows / expands her genuine interest and work on early 80's industrial music scene, shadowy electronics and vocal experimentation.., mixing together anxiously all these influences though a deep soundtrack, where everyday life and paranoia walk hand in hand, nervously.

Developing a plane of consistency along the lines of a post-Indie militant postindustrial d.i.y. neo-folk synth-power plop aesthetic, these songs construct the Deleuze and Guattari influence with a creative act of telling parallel folk-tales of Luciferianism, Masochism, Love, Kainian mythologies, Becoming-..pup-beast-man, possessed dogs like “Omen Dog”, a song written on 06-06-2006, and even a re-writing of “Satisfaction” with “Satsf-..faktion”. Deadicated to the late Jhonn Balance.150 copies. € 9,00
