Music > (post-)punk / wave / industrial

A retrospective.

This artist's book by the American artist, musician (Destroy All Monsters), writer and bookseller intertwines Polaroids of 1970s Detroit with photographs of painterly collages made of TV stills and print ephemera combining Christian iconography, Classical Hollywood cinema, pop and b-movie culture.

The composition Radio Music Extended, performed by Opening Performance Orchestra, draws upon the concept John Cage brought to bear in his piece Radio Music from 1956.

Silk Saw's 12th album, blending sweet and bitter in languorous and enigmatic melodies that float on intriguing pounding polyrhythms.

Tristan Tzara (1896-1963) is the poet through whom Dada arrived. In Zurich, he animated the Cabaret Voltaire with Hugo Ball; in Paris, he then inspired some surrealists in the making. If he was a great lover of Villon and Rabelais, his poetry is as iconoclastic as the music of Nurse With Wound, who composed for this edition of Minuits pour géants an unpublished piece lasting about ten minutes: On the Edge of the Outside.

A free reflection on the influence of Bertolt Brecht in the work of Nina Hagen, this hybrid text approaches two great popular figures of German culture through an unusual prism, through the margins, and paints a portrait of Nina Hagen as we have never seen her before.

A piece of industrial musique concrète composed in the studios of GRM, created from field recordings of a vinyl record pressing plant: a mise en abyme of the record as an object.

Vinyl EP from Silk Saw's 12th album, blending sweet and bitter in languorous and enigmatic melodies that float on intriguing pounding polyrhythms.

A more than strange novel by the German writer and director Hanns Heinz Ewers (1871-1943), accompanied by a new musical piece by Nurse With Wound on a mini CD.

A socio-political history of punk and post-punk covering four decades and three continents.

A total and exploded socio-politico-poetic inquiry into the poetic milieu, based on a textual-visual-sound device.

This publication reflects upon the exhibition of Stefan Brüggemann's nihilist statements read, sung, and screamed by Punk icon Iggy Pop, sculpting aurally the spaces of a seemingly empty gallery covered in densely painted black paneling paintings.

This album contains seven compositions, created by the Opening Performance Orchestra, Blixa Bargeld, Luciano Chessa and Fred Möpert. All the pieces relate to the theme of Futurism and employ intonarumori, instruments invented and used more than a century ago by the Italian Futurists in their noise compositions.
