2002 top 10 list
by Bruno Bissonnette 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Well, I think it's that time of year again... feel free to rant and rave about your favorites, it's always fun and has often in past years pointed me towards new sounds. Anyway, here are my picks for the past year, in no particular order... apologies for including any releases that are actually from 2001 (or even 2000), because I only got around to hearing them this year... 1. Merzbow: Hard Lovin' Man 2. Sissy Spacek: Scissors 3. Phantomsmasher: s/t 4. Dälek: from filthy tongue of gods and griots 5. Skeleton Key: Obtainium 6. Dillinger Escape Plan w/Mike Patton: Irony is a dead scene 7. Otomo Yoshihide: Anode 8. Steroid Maximus: Ectopia 9. Oval: Commers 10. O-Type: Lugubrious A few other very notable entries, which I've only heard excerpts of (yet) but which definitely could have replaced any of the above: - Masami Akita/Zbigniew Karkowski: Mazk - Tetsuo Furudate/Zbigniew Karkowski: World as Will 2 - Danubius: s/t - Melvins: H.A.T. - John Zorn: Cobra - John Zorn: Xu Feng - Ruins: Tzomborgha - Bastard Noise: Mutant - Merzbow: Puroland, Amlux, etc. etc.. and much more I can't remember...

I am not living there anymore so am not sure whether this is all relevant or up to date, but here are a few places - specific to Brussels and music-wise - where to start looking. I'm sure there are more. (Can't help but throwing http://www.discographie.be in there ;) Enjoy the city. ---- Announcements: http://surrealsound.euronet.be ; http://www.brdf.net ; http://users.pandora.be/stichtinglogos/lb/lbarchief.html Radio: http://www.ulb.ac.be/assoc/radio-campus Venues: http://www.nova-cinema.com ; http://www.beursschouwburg.be ; http://www.recyclart.be ; http://www.artagenda.be/magasin4 ; Café Central ; http://www.flagey.be Shopping: http://www.lebonheur.net Music library network: http://www.lamediatheque.be/SITESLOCAUX/Passage44/accueil.htm

sex mob thunderball
by Julian 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Hi, just noticed that there is an import version of Sex Mob Does Bond, which has a bonus track 'Thunderball'... anyone out there heard it? Is it the theme from the film which Tom Jones sang, or is it some other music from the film? Just wondering... Julian.

New Zorn documentary this Friday in New York
by Steve Smith 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

I saw that this was sent to many Z-listers individually, but not to the list en masse, apparently, so here it is, especially for the New Yorkers on the list (Sonata Pathetique, it's *you* I'm thinking of here). I just bought tickets online - a *little* pricey, but ain't nothing to it. ***** Hello (please pass this message): This is to let you know that my film "A BOOKSHELF ON TOP OF THE SKY - 12 Stories About John Zorn" will have its New York premiere, as part of the Museum of Modern Art/Documentary Fortnight, on Friday, December 20th, 8:30 p.m. MoMA at The Gramercy Theatre 127 East 23 St. (at Lexington Ave.) New York, New York Info: 212-708-9480 / www.moma.org / www.ticketweb.com Gramercy Theatre: 212-777-4900 Hope to see you there! Best, Claudia Heuermann ***** Here's what Downtown Music Gallery's Bruce Gallanter had to say in his latest web-blast: "Years in the making & our good friend Bill Dubilier provided some of live Naked City footage - Zorn fan-addicts, do not miss this one!!!!!" I also found a web page that listed a lot of prizes this film has snagged and mentioned that Ikue Mori and Mike Patton are also featured in it: http://www.movie-times.net/cgi-local/store/commerce.cgi?product=BOOKSHELF Steve Smith ssmith36(a)sprynet.com NP - Otomo Yoshihide New Jazz Quintet, "Eureka," 'Live' (DIW)

I wrote a few lines (mostly order information, links and one lo-fi MP3) about this nice collection. Hope that it encourages some people to "check this set out". Concluding I make the usual disclaimers (not affiliated with the artist, etc.) http://url.antville.org/stories/234764/ Regards Franz Fuchs

Hi! >Elliott Sharp / Bobby Previte: The Prisoner's Dilemma (Grob) How's this? Is it free improv? I prefer Previte when he's in more groovy shape, especially Ponga. I was hoping this would have a bit of that. I imagine Sharp would be too bad at some sort of groovy avant garde jam session! >Arto Lindsay: Invoke (Righteous Babe) The initial dissapointment gets smaller and smaller for every listen...! _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail
