Listed: Brian Case

Singer and multi-instrumentalist was a teenager when he got on board the music train with 90 Day Men, and he’s been on it ever since. Based in Chicago, he was second guitarist with garage rockers Ponys and the stern vocal center of Disappears. Currently he leads FACS, a trio that pares Disappears’ dynamic sound to starker, more monolithic essence. Jennifer Kelly said of their debut LP, Negative Houses (Trouble in Mind): “FACS works best in post-apocalyptic desolation mode, rattling over long rhythms to the vanishing point.” He has also worked in the shorter-lived projects Bambi Kino, Acteurs, and Parish School, and records alone. The French label Hands in the Dark has just released Case’s third solo LP,Plays Artificial Paradise,on which he sets his echo-swamped voice within pulsing, clanking synthscapes.

Wipers–Over the Edge

This album came up in conversation recently and I realized I hadn't listened to it in years. Such a great guitar record, really thoughtful music that takes the energy of punk and transfers it into something else. “No One Wants an Alien” is my favorite track.

Jon Hassell / Brian Eno–Fourth World Vol. 1

Great collaboration, totally committed to the idea of what they could accomplish together. There's a great compilation inspired by this album available on Optimo called Miracle Steps.

Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe–Magnamite

Rob and I had a band for a long time called 90 Day Men, we learned so much together about music and life. We were probably never more than 5 ft. apart from each other for about a decade which is pretty insane! I love watching where he's going next with his solo practice.

My Bloody Valentine–Isn’t Anything

I'm always coming back to this record, I think I like it better than Lovelesssince it's not such a masterpiece. The recently remastered version released by the band is definitely worth getting, lots of new sounds and artifacts that were never that clear on any of the other versions. I think I've bought this album 5 times now?

Talk Talk–Laughing Stock

Beautiful and stark, I think most of this was improvised and put together over the course of a year or so? This has been on the record player once a day for a while now, hoping it rubs off on me somehow.

Ice Baths–Self Titled

New London band on Blank Editions. Really interesting guitar stuff and great textures, feel like they're trying to make something new, which I'm always attracted to.

Behavior–Bitter Bitter

L.A. based band that I think shares members with Wand. Punk music with lots of space. Great voice too.

Arthur Russell–World of Echo

This was probably the main inspiration for my new album. I really wanted to strip things down to just voice and synth, be kinda naked and straight forward emotionally.

Tomaga–Greetings From The Bitter End

One of the best bands going, they release something new about every 2 weeks, shipping charges are killing me. Truly wonderful people doing exactly whatever they want, that's really inspiring.

Suuns–Felt

One of my favorite bands, their approach music is really fresh. Lots of electronics that mesh perfectly with the traditional base of the band. I'd recommend any of their albums but this latest is their strongest and most varied.

Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe (LICHENS) finally makes it on to the cover of THE WIRE (and deservedly so),  perhaps the only worthwhile magazine dealing with experimental “music” in all its myriad forms. I know Rob as a really nice person with abundant skills and ideas that he readily shares with others. His resume features albums, site-specific museum pieces, movie scores, and more.  Congrats, Rob!

[awwfullt1ng5-blog]

Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe, Levitation Praxis Pt. 4, and Two Orb Reel. To be honest, I wanted Kulthan. If you holding get in touch. These LPs—not mad at, but they make me miss sitting inside the experience of Rob live.

Some wonderful (re-)encounters and sad farewells.

Francoise Cactus (1964 - 2021) The queen of the Berlin underground. A real anarchist and a very dear friend who died much too young.

Peter Rehberg (1968 - 2021) A great personality with a true passion for independent, experimental music and a cutting sense of humour. His brilliant mind will be missed.

Alvin Lucier (1931 - 2021) One of the most important encounters of my life. I interviewed him in 2004 in New York for my radio play „Paralektronoia“. His idea to focus on the room reflections instead of the original sound source changed my view on music profoundly.

Bernd Schurer Suisse Klangkünstler, psycho-acoustician and film composer who I met 20 years ago. One of the last romanticists who has always lived his life to the extreme.

Victoria Keddie A brilliant video artist, musician, telescopist and curator with a glint of flamboyance in her eye.

Matt Wand Genius quick-change artist, transformer and plunderphonic confusionist. A collaborator of things unreal.

Lucrecia Dalt A sculptor of romantic electronic songs on the edge of the unorganic. Our messenger of alien night life. Outlandish, poetic and courageous.

Doug Shipton Doug, half of Finders Keepers Records and half a cypress tree. His friendship is a constant breeze of fresh air in my mental locker.

Booty Carrell One of my oldest friends. A fantastic (radio) DJ and archaeologist of the obscure paths of world music. Also a great supporter of young musicians. I need to visit him soon.

Knut Aufermann & Sarah Washington The most inventive and (in the best possible sense) megalomaniac radio artists and curators I know. Close friends and wine enthusiasts, too.

Lucile Desamory A supernatural film maker, performer, martial arts fighter and telepathic friend.

Marie Losier My dear Marie! A brilliant film artist who breaks all the rules with a thunderous laughter.

Sven-Åke Johansson A genius performing artist who - at the age of 78 - constantly amazes with inventive, bizarre and cheeky ways of playing his "exploded drum set".

I dreamt the pandemic would have stopped us all being able to learn. Like a fracture, a refusal to absorb anything further. We didn’t understand it was happening. Unconsciously I guess I’ve been looking for answers in books, films, music. More than ever. Here’s something I think I’ve found:

3 books Claire Keegan - Small things like these Max Porter - The death of Francis Bacon Ernesto De Martino - La fine del mondo

3 music books John Lurie - The History of Bones Gilbert Rouget - La musique et la transe. Esquisse d’une théorie générale des relations de la musique et de la possession Eliane Radigue - Intermediary spaces

3 books I gave as presents Carlo Ginzburg - I Benandanti Chandra Candiani - Questo immenso non sapere Graham Duff - Foreground Music

3 books given to me Claire Keegan - Foster Kae Tempest - On connection Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing - The mushroom at the end of the world

3 albums Lump - Animal Masma Dream World - Play at Night Richard Skelton - Four Workings

3 albums I gave as presents Matt Sweeney & Bonnie Prince Billy - Superwolves Giancarlo Toniutti - Batlahatli David Shea - The Art of Memory

3 albums given to me Luigi Maramotti - Knot Music Xordox - Omniverse Massimo Toniutti - Il museo selvatico (reprint)

3 songs I wish I had written Pino Daniele - Appocundria (Because of my reoccurring dream in which I call a friend in Napoli pretending to speak neapolitan) Robbie Basho - Blue Crystal Fire The Ghost of Sauris (I suppose I wrote it, but I dreamt it was written by someone else, since I couldn’t fine anyone who has written it I guess it came to me as a dream, but I keep thinking it belongs to someone else)

3 songs discovered by chance using Shazam Charlie Megira - The Coochimama Swingers (bookstore in Brooklyn) Lee Scratch Perry - Having a Party (record store in Roma) Blake Mills - Vanishing Twin (taylor in Roma)

3 films L’isola di Arturo (Damiano Damiani) The Power of the Dog (Jane Campion) Todo Modo (Elio Petri)

3 albums I’ve just picked up from a shelf using a random numeric generator Vivenza - Réalités Servomécaniques P16D4 & Swimming Behaviour of the Human Infant - Nicht Niemand Nirgends Nie! Steroid Maximus - Quilombo

2021

I don’t know too many people who can honestly say they had a great year. I certainly can’t, but here are some things that helped get me through this mess.

Psycho Goreman It’s funny, violent, gory and even heartwarming at times. Great practical effects and creature design, and the cast was incredible - especially Mimi. Fantastic film, highly recommended.

Marvel’s What If… Full disclosure, most of what I watched this year was with my kids, so that skews things a bit. But having been a fan of the “What If…” comics series as a teen in the late 80’s/early 90’s, I truly appreciated the work they put in on this one. Some episodes are better than others, but the season finale pulls it all together in an incredibly satisfying way. And fun for the whole family!

Keith Mansfield - KPM ‘Vivid Underscores’ This album was originally released in ’77, but it just received a well-deserved reissue from Be With records. Library music is absolutely my jam, and this has been on my want list for years. Evocative underscores that will make your life feel way more exciting. I like to listen to it while cleaning, or driving.

Night Lunch - “House Full of Shit” I don’t know anything about this band and have not heard any of their albums, but a friend hipped me to this tune and it’s incredible. Definitely watch the video.

Pino Palladino + Blake Mills - “Ekuté” My favorite 5 and a half minutes of music released this year. I’ve been a fan of Pino since Paul Young covered Hall & Oates’ “Every Time You Go Away” back in ’85, and I love watching him mature and grow as a musician. The entire album, ‘Notes With Attachments,’ is incredible, but this song really does it for me. I’m a big fan of 70’s West African music and these dudes really nail the groove, and add their own special touch.

My 2021 Highlights:

music - (in no particular order)

Future Faith - Lime Rickey International

Dirge - Joanna Mattrey

Wild At Heart - Pauline Kim Harris; Chaconne Project

Cairns - Gelsey Bell

Coin Coin Chapter Four: Memphis - Matana Roberts (released 2019, acquired 2021)

i was gifted by a friend the complete live Hendrix/Band of Gypsys at Fillmore East 1969-1970 - "Songs for Groovy Children” - spent a good part of Jan/Feb 2021 with my guitar tuned down a half-step, playing along with, re-learning the tunes, licks, solos from this amazing set of 8 LP’s

Before going into live in-person recording sessions in the fall 2021, I re-discovered and also played along with the tunes/energies of: Sonny Sharrock - Black Woman

Black Unity Trio - Al-Fatihah

Julius Hemphill - Dogon A.D.

movies - The Present - Farah Nablusi (BAFTA-winning and Oscar-nominated) a beautiful 20min long film, which captures the brutal, unjust inhumanity of Apartheid Israel through  the reality of what a Palestinian family must go through following “a day in their life”. A MUST SEE FILM.

Summer of Soul (…Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised)” - Ahmir “Qwestlove” Thompson more than a live concert film, this is about an era, the time of a “before/after” moment in culture and society. I hope Qwestlove makes a director’s cut that in 24 hours long, with ALL the live concert footage.

books - Against The Loveless World - Susan Abulhawa

You Exist Too Much - Zaina Arafat
