Daniel Jansson is Deadwood.
Deadwood is a one-man project that was created in 2003 under the name Deadwood Murder, its only purpose was/is to satisfy my lust for raw and filthy black Industrial music. It has been a slow process with years in-between releases. The first demo was made and sent out to several labels in 2004. Cold Spring records agreed to release the first full-length Deadwood album "8 19" (HS?). And summer 2004 a split tape with black metal band Blodulv called The Havoc We Seek was released on the French BM label Forgotten Wisdom productions. Cold Spring records released the debut album '8 19' in summer 2005. It took quite a while to get the album out and for a while it looked like forces unknown was trying to stop this dark masterpiece to ever see the light of day. With multiple delays on various fronts nothing seemed to go our way. The first print sent over by the printer was a joke with the colurs all-wrong and the discs scratched. And when it was to be re-printed, the printing factory burned down. 3 years later, “Ramblack"  follows up  Deadwood's successful 2005 album "8 19". Over the past 3 years this Swedish artist has been toiling away, creating a new black ambient / death noise masterpiece and "Ramblack" is the result. Cloaked in a more raw and morbid sound then its predecessor, this album truly changes one's perspective of audial darkness. This analogue beast of an album layers the tonal prayers of demons and the distorted cries of angels, sickness and depravity. True Death Electronics. The soundtrack to your end. "Ramblack" features guest vocals from Norwegian Black Metal legend Maniac (Skitliv, ex-Mayhem), whose vocal approach on the song 'Forakt' shows the full range of his capacity. Truly one of the most sick and twisted pieces of sonic art ever recorded. Enjoy the disease!

Gianluca Becuzzi (born 1962, Piombino-Italy) is an electronic / electroacoustic composer and sound artist active since the first half of the 80’s. He released many albums and performed live around Europe during the last three decades under various names. Since 1999, his artistic production is characterised by a strong experimental imprint, by the interest into the expressive possibilities offered by the technologies and by a clear aesthetic inclination towards abstract forms and micro / macro noises / sounds. He deals with electronic / electroacoustic composition, sound art, audio installations, ambient post-scorings and sound design. The relationships between art and science, between audio and visual-spatial forms, as well as between composition and self-generative processes represent the main themes in my sonological research. Among the artistic productions of the latest years, in addiction to the experimental works under his own name, we have to mention also his solo works as Kinetix, the records in duet with Fabio Orsi, the electro-post-punk project Noise Trade Company and the harsh-power-noise productions as Greyhistory, plus several other collaborations with musicians, theatre companies and videoartists from the experimental area.

About the environmental works I usually make a deep investigation of particular places, making recordings like field recordings or recordings of signals from short wave radio receivers and VLF receivers, in order to compose conceptual works about the selected sites; together with a deep study about the history of the place on which I’m working on. I’m interested in reconfiguring the sound panorama through its transcendental aspects to create a dimension that is not only sound but mainly a total perceptive dimension that bring ourselves to find out a new kind of perception. I realize works as PIETRO RIPARBELLI especially related to the world of Contemporary Art. So each work arise from a conceptual idea turned into sound. The field in which I principally work is linked to the perception of the sound landscape and to the perception of inner states of consciousness related to other dimensions of awareness. K11 is a project that deals with the world of radio signals, the trans-communication and other invisible phenomena, to create a dimension where the only sound sources are signals from shortwave radio receivers and field recordings taken from very specific locations. In this project I use only sounds coming from the atmosphere and from invisible places turned into fields of drone with particular interest into the study of the dynamics of Noise. 



MARCELLO BACCI - GRUPPO PSICOFONICO DI GROSSETO

psychophonia / esoteric

[...] After more than thirty-five years of dedicated study of Instrumental TransCommunication (ITC), Marcello Bacci can be considered a leading expert in the field due to this exceptionally long record of experimentation with the voices. The remarkable phenomena that have occurred in the past decades in Grosseto, Italy, indicate that this persevering experimenter is always prepared to locate new openings to communicate with the beyond. Bacci’s character is such that he is never satisfied with the results achieved and always wishes to continue the exploration from other possible perspectives. His interest in the paranormal goes back to 1949 when he participated in a mediumistic sitting in London. From that time, his life was indelibly marked and today, at seventy-nine years of age, he continues to make regular experiments, once a month. Bacci is a man with wide-ranging creativity. His personality reveals itself to be unconditioned and free, intolerant of any restriction coming from dogmatic and cultural pressures that seek to reject realities that personal experience has indicated to him are possible. In his long years of experimental work, Bacci has tested various methods and many technical devices.  In the beginning he made microphone recordings, in the same manner as Jürgenson and Raudive.  Over the years he has made many other attempts with newly developed devices. In the past two decades he has been obtaining his transcontacts through an old Nordmende valve radio....[continue here]

- Paolo Presi | Interdisciplinary Laboratory for Biopsychocyberneticsn Research -

Marcello Bacci inizia le sue ricerche nel mondo del paranormale all'inizio degli anni '60 passando attraverso una vasta gamma di metodologie. Dopo alcuni anni di sperimentazione con il magnetofono la ricerca si è andata focalizzando nella ricezione di Voci paranormali tramite un apparecchio radio-ricevente a valvole. L'uso di un apparecchio radio come strumento idoneo alla ricezione delle Voci paranormali fu suggerito dalle Voci stesse che Bacci registrava su magnetofono. I contatti radio avvengono oggi con particolari e ben precise modalità subordinate alla presenza di Marcello Bacci, elemento medianico catalizzatore di energie misteriose "che non sono di ordine scientifico, ma di altro ordine", come hanno precisato le Voci stesse. Tentativi di stabilire il contatto in assenza di Bacci hanno dato sempre esito negativo, confermando il ruolo medianico dello sperimentatore.

MOVIMENTO AVANGUARDIA ERMETICO

Movimento d'Avanguardia Ermetico are: Yog : Vocals & Drums Ans : Guitars Formed in 2005 "Movimento d'Avanguardia Ermetico" is a raw and introspective black metal band. The current line-up is composed by Yog (vocals, bass and drums) and Ans (guitars). [ESORDI] Correva l'anno 2005 quando grazie all'esperienza maturata a partire dalla fine degli anni '90 - prevalentemente nel progetto "Sarghnagel" - un gruppo di appassionati di musica estrema si trovava per fondare il "Movimento d'Avanguardia Ermetico". Le finalità di tale progetto erano chiare sin dall'inizio: dar vita ad una forma di Black Metal che sappesse coniugare Tradizione, Avanguardia e spirito underground. Inizialmente la band si forma grazie a Yog (batteria), Ans (chitarra), Jemzo (voce), Onz (basso), ma ben presto quest'ultimo lascia la band per varie motivazioni. Con una formazione a tre viene registrato nel febbraio/marzo del 2006 il contributo di due pezzi ("Ermetico Signal d'antica Schiera" e "Guerriero" )confluiti successivamente nella ristampa di "Alle frontiere.." e sul secondo demo "IGNIS" nonché sullo split 2010 "Visionaries of Valiant Vagaries". [ALLE FRONTIERE DELL'ANIMA] Proseguono le attività del MDAE che nell'estate del 2007, dopo la dipartita del vocalist Jemzo e l'arrivo di R. I. al basso, pubblica "Alle frontiere dell'Anima", mini cd contenente quattro brani. Sorto in un momento di particolare travaglio e nonostante numerosi contrattempi "Alle frontiere..." rappresenta la vena più riflessiva e filosofica del Movimento, in cui solitudine ed introspezione si uniscono con la ricerca delle radici culturali e tradizionali a noi più affini. Tale demo, in occasione del solstizio d'estate 2008, è stata ristampata in versione tape con due bonus track ad opera della bulgara AMF prod. [IGNIS] Terminato anch'esso in occasione del solstizio d'estate, e dopo alcuni ritardi causati dalle poste italiane, nell'agosto 2008 è uscito il primo demo album della band, in versione demo, grazie alla WAR Kommand Prod, etichetta underground italiana che ci ha fornito un gradito e notevole supporto. La demo porta il titolo di "IGNIS", dove all'introspezione che contraddistingue il concept si unisce la ricerca del significato iniziatico del fuoco e del sole nero. [I SENTIERI DELLA TRADIZIONE] Inoltre il MDAE si è accordato con la band "Corvus Invictus" per la realizzazione di uno split, "Sentieri della Tradizione", registrato in occasione del solstizio d'inverno 2008 e pubblicato nel novembre del 2009 da WK. Prod. e da Alzig Art. Nel dicembre del 2009 sono state terminate le registrazioni di "Stelle Senza Luce", 45 minuti di inediti pubblicati dall'etichetta Russa Kunsthauch nel giugno del 2010. [ANNO 2010] Sempre nel 2010 è prevista l'uscita dello split Movimento d'Avanguardia Ermetico/Adrarakh/Triumphus Mortis/Gorrenje. Tale split intitolato "Visionaries of Valiant Vagaries" vede la partecipazione di band italiane e tedesche dedite ad una forma di black metal atmosferico e pagano.

Per Ahlund, born 1976, resides in Stockholm, Sweden where he’s involved in several experimental music-, improvisation- and sound art-projects. His live soundscapes blur the boundaries between noise and music, stillness and hysteria, darkness and light. He create compositions on the verge of dissolving and focuses on mood and texture rather than tonality and rhythm. He performs live on a regular basis and has the last few years toured with acts like Amber Asylum, ?Alos, b°tong and Origami Galaktika. He has released several full length albums containing abstract, dark soundscapes with such projects as Diskrepant, Skare and Aum Arrhythmia. Live he use contact microphones, gadgets, loops and effects to form abstract sound environments created in the moment. His live performances are often based on old radios, voice, newly found objects and junk used as instruments. “The soundscapes encourage you to travel, and then dissolve, in space and time. To merge with the frequencies. To have a dialogue with yourself. To finally think of nothing. To be released...”

The method I utilize within PT-R project is based on sampling of environmental sound sources turned into rhythmic framework.

Acousmatic Black Metal is the TST self-defined musical genre. Music for loudspeakers and audience: based on atonal music and non-idiomatic improvisation principles, applied to a radical Black Metal approach, linked to authors such as Abruptum, Hell Icon, Mözkörke, Emit, Amaka Hahina, Moëvöt, Profane Grace, Astral Lueur, Black Pentecost, Darkness Enshroud, Gnaw Their Tongues, Sunn O))), Grauen Pestanz, Summum, MZ.412, Havohej, Knálh-Kurruv-Kih, Flittering, Burial Hex, Utarm, Wolf Eyes, Zero Kama, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Hermann Nitsch, Edgar Varese, Antonio Russolo, Giacinto Scelsi, Luigi Russolo, Groupe de Recherche de Musique Concrčte, AMM, Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, Spontaneous Music Ensemble, Musica Elettronica Viva, The Music Improvisation Company, Universe Zero, Groupe de Recherches Musicales, Scratch Orchestra, ONCE Group, following the non-musical aural path of early Sodom, Hellhammer, Beherit, Blasphemy, Von, Wormphlegm, Mordor, Senthil, Thergothon, Kranivm, and many more authors who moved from the borders of this sound paradigm. Inspired by the Russolo‘s researches in his Black Art of Noise; the sound spatialization studies of Karlheinz Stockhausen and his music theory; Edgar Varese‘s studies and his vision of “sound as living matter“, the non-objective and aniconic art of Tele.s.therion, is centered on polyphonic sound projections for immersive deep listening experiences, in order to unleash the auditory stimuli that allow the altering of cognitive-perceptual processes (pareidolia), to bring out imaginative and synaesthetic subconscious processes, the epopteia! What we commonly know today as Black Metal, it’s just one of the possible forms available.

TELE.S.THERION Acousmatic Black Metal Ensemble
Tele.s.therion music program it’s based on the use of techniques and dynamics borrowed from musical genres such as Jazz and Rock, and thus from the practices of the radical primitive Blues that unites them, and that can be find ourselves in the original Black Metal music, introduced here as an interpretive key inside of a compositional and executive system linked to practices carried out by the fringes of classical, modern, non-idiomatic, contemporary, and avant-garde music (with a special interest on the concrete and acousmatic process), sound art, improvised, atonal, black, dark and doom heavy metal, searching for the roots of the meaning of these terms, for their sonic phenomenas, their thought forms, before they became a music genre.

What we commonly know today as black metal, it’s just one of the possible forms availabes.

It is necessary start to watch through the veil of this genre, with an upside down point of view, to discover its das unheimliche, to transgress the stereotopies and cliché, and design new possible forms whithin this musical dimension; to start a new auditory journey to the roots of Black Metal music. The Black Metal's engineering its mutuated by its royal descent, which is derived from the practices developped in Punk and Thrash era, and it is distinguishable by a strong interest in the aesthetic theories, focusing on the physiological effects of special categories such as the sublime, which here become extra musical evocative suggestions, shock tactics, hard edged, transgressive and antiestablishment attitude, iconoclasm, etc. [...]

The TST compositional method, the sound matters was previously selected choosing the performers; the characters and the timbres of the sound bodies chosen for this acousmatic composition, are a unity with the personality of the author involved in the ensemble. Such as characters on the set of a movie, they play blind and alone, using a script and few essential indications. [...]

To keep this aspect of independence of each sound event, each author was called to perform himself, recording his own sessions separately, as a moment form, without knowing what the other authors involved will do. Each recording session, it's conceived and treated as a sort of whodunit, an event developed inside the "locked room mystery", a narrative approach conceptually transposed in sound art, where each detail it's a fondant clues of the acoustic scene, raw material that becomes a sound object per sé.

s.f.skancke. live rituals: s.f.skancke, s.o.toft Utarm was a project that has been dwelling for years,without finding its right form. Various black metal and ambient bands..projects was tried out through the nineties, but the constallations of people never worked,and it was clear that a oneman project was the only solution. Human relations seems to be a constant failure.in the early years of the new millenium the beast found its ugly shape. Not wanting to make the classic Black Metal, neither Noise or Doom, but creating true satanic desperation not bound by musical structures. Through Utarm the darker shadows of humanity can be found, a mirror to reflect the black holes and misery of oneself. Humans tend to avoid this side of their personality, therfore most humans does not have the caracteristics of a whole person, just shallow creatures who use their time to try and forget their unavoidable death. When confronted with utarm this is not longer possible. Total darkness concentrated to audial spikes of hate, and these spikes will penetrate you.....

Michael DeWitt Early ritual industrial project of Michael DeWitt (Nekrophile Records). Only "The Secret Eye of L.A.Y.L.A.H." and a few compilation tracks were ever recorded. A planned release of a musical/ritual rendition of The Book Of The Law was planned, but only one track ended up being completed. ZERO KAMA war ein musikalisches Soloprojekt von Michael DeWitt, der unter diesem Namen 1984 das Album "The Secret Eye of L.A.Y.L.A.H." veröffentlichte, auf dem ausschließlich Musik zu hören ist, die auf selbstgebauten Instrumenten aus menschlichen Schädeln und Knochen gespielt wurde. Inspiriert durch die Praxis tibetischer Mönche, aus den Knochen von Mönchen, hingerichteten Verbrechern und Jungfrauen rituelle Musikinstrumente anzufertigen, begann Michael DeWitt im Frühjahr 1984 eigene Knocheninstrumente herzustellen. Neben reich verzierten Oberschenkeltrompeten nach tibetischem Vorbild entstanden auch vier Schädeltrommeln, verschiedene Perkussionsinstrumente, ein Oberschenkelknochenyxlophon, eine Unterschenkelknochenflöte und zwei aus Unterschenkelknochen und Ellen zusammengesetzte Blasinstrumente, die durch ein Oboen-Doppelblatt-Mundstück angeblasen wurden.
