the House of Wills – “the house always wins”

Auto Draft

the House of Wills

“”the house always wins””

JV as the House of Wills has become a fixture all their own. Named after a once-crumbling prominent Cleveland building that has reinvented itself again and again, JV has been in a half dozen of your favorite punk bands (Ultra Ultra, RAM ONES, and The Public, to name a few) but their solo project somehow manages to bring even more emotional heft than some of their bands’ hardest bangers. the House of Wills is a powerful project, playing ceaselessly around the region and quickly gaining steam from their two releases in 2020. Much like the ever-changing legendary local landmark, the House Of Wills is something that has existed, and will hopefully continue to exist, even as JV’s rock bands come and go with time. Long live the House of Wills.

Batfinks – So If You Want

Batfinks – So If You Want

Batfinks

“So If You Want”

Batfinks became part of the Caoutchou family since he contributed the track ‘Shamalaalaa’ for the second Rubber Beats compilation back in ’09. 5 years later we released ‘Bibobleyboo’ on our label and early 2016 he sent us new material for an album named ‘Mosisac’. Later that year we heard the sad news that Ste had passed away.

‘So If You Want’ is the lyrical counterpart of the dark, at times unsettling ‘Mosisac’, and this compilation is a collection of mostly unreleased Batfinks tracks. He had been testing , with ‘lathe cut vinyls’, three albums, Dolly, False Fades and Wasps At Home. His family decided to carry on having a few albums made for his friends, later uploading them to Bandcamp. ‘Suzy Said’ and ‘All the Same’ are on the albums because Ste’ had originally released them on cassettes.

‘So If You Want’ is unmistakably Batfinksesque, but we also discover another side of the multi-faceted artist. We’ve heard him sing before, but never on ten tracks in a row – and on such a serious note. Quirky. Multi-instrumental. Eclectic. Absurd. Touching. Out there. Godspeed, wherever you are.

Many thanks and an incredible amount of respect to Chris for contacting us about these unreleased tracks.

REfugEEs From Beyond

“SO Nice Youth”

The Necrophile Hummingbird Netlabel presents SO Nice Youth by REfugEEs From Beyond.

“Unusual Noise Rock for No Wave People”

Live improvisation recorded the 11th August 2023 at the Cave Haven in Foucherans. During summer holidays at the beach I found this portal with “nice” write over, and so it makes “tilt” in my burning head, this was the key to decipher this mythical session improvised few weeks ago.
We all have been young at least once upon a time…

Dedicated to the youth of every country because it’s more than time to kick out every professional politicians or representatives of the deadly capitalist industries (or whatever the name you give to these corrupted agents of the world cancer) to build a better world.

One Tru Odd – Hits For The Misplaced
[mhrk358]

One Tru Odd

“Hits For The Misplaced”

One Tru Odd has been around longer than intended or expected, mostly helping other people’s talents shine – as much as the people in question would let him. He has been, and probably will continue being, in more other artists’ bands than reasonable and has done more unprofitable music for theatre than is considered decent. When time allows for it, One Tru Odd releases music under the aliases V.K., Bissquit, and Bassquit, none of which are real human names. “Hits for the Misplaced” is his second outing as One Tru Odd after 2021’s “This E.P”. As per his music, his opinion of humanity is fairly favourable.

Released July 12, 2023 as free (cc) digital download and limited edition digipak CD

All music written, performed, programmed, recorded and mixed by

Economic Freedom Fighters – Respeita os Cria

Economic Freedom Fighters – Respeita os Cria

Economic Freedom Fighters

“Respeita os Cria”

Respeita os Cria é o fruto de um processo de quase três anos, entre Setembro de 2020 e Abril de 2023 gravado no Escritório da Transfusão. O ano inicial foi de muitas incertezas e isso refletiu na produção. Por tempos, não sabíamos qual dinâmica queríamos alcançar, pois, o projeto inicialmente era apenas para ser ao vivo. Hoje artistas são vistos no mundo virtual e depois no mundo real, e em 2020 era a regra, afinal estávamos numa pandemia. Pandemia que colocou muitas pessoas em um hiato e comigo não foi diferente, porém, usei esse vácuo de tempo para me redescobrir como artista. Durante esse tempo aprendi que tipo de som de guitarra quero nesse momento do Economic Freedom Fighters.

A proposta do som transita entre o sujo, melódico, agressivo, suingado e momentos, inseridos em letras sobre abstrações, ciências e reflexões sobre ser preto. O conceito que chamo de Garage Rock Afro Latino. Economic Freedom Fighters é uma resposta, mesmo que tardia, a um reflexo da cena de rock alternativo onde é majoritariamente formada por brancos, e o nome EP é sobre isso.
Não partimos do mesmo lugar, não estudamos nos melhores colégios, não teremos a melhores chances se não fizermos por nós e pelos nossos. Para termos determinados acessos, o mínimo que seja, temos que vencer muitas batalhas. Venci a primeira batalha que foi gravar o disco com meu companheiro de guitarra Davi Hidalgo, e hoje temos o trabalho de projetar e não parar. A única coisa que queremos é repeito, pra nós e para os nossos.

Posto isso, RESPEITA OS CRIA.

Girl Boy Moog – Hum The Beat ep

Girl Boy Moog – Hum The Beat ep
[CANDY006]

Girl Boy Moog

“Hum The Beat ep”

Here we’ve got Girl Boy Moog (a band who took its band name from the three members which is nothing but a boy, a girl and a Moog (a broken Moog that doesn’t work apparently, but nevertheless a Moog.)) and we also got their “Hum The Beat EP” which originally was released in 2001 in a limited edition.

When we asked the members of Girl Boy Moog about re-releasing their masterwork online, as an mp3-release, they said that they really wanted us to do so, cause they lost the tracks a long time ago and wanted to hear the music again themselves…

With “Hum The Beat”, Girl Boy Moog takes us on an unforgettable journey full old trains, cute girls, happy Japanese people and most of all broken Moogs.

1. MORNING EUPHORIA IN TOKYO SUBWAY
Tokyo subway is always busy and full of motion, and this morning is nothing different. But wait!
Everyone’s happy and the station is also full of Japanese people painted in green, red and bright yellow!

2. GETTING ON A TRAIN
Here our train-journey starts. Girl Boy Moog takes up their guitars and sings this song about pretty girls and happy trains. We like it!

3. SHE’S A CATFISH
This is a song about ghost houses, healthy people and communication problems over languages. Who’s a catfish? You’re a catfish? Are there any catfishes at all?? She’s a catfish!

4. ABOUT THE THINGS I HAD TO SAY
Synthesizers, funky guitars, kazoo and Girl Boy Moogs trademark basslines blends in this pretty laidback tune. And Paris is a palindrome. But is it really?

5. HUM THE BEAT
Aren’t you also sitting and humming the beat all day long? Girl Boy Moog is, be sure!

6. TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD (STRAWBERRY ICE MACHINE)
An unforgettable classic, this “Tottenham Court Road (Strawberry Ice Machine). Girl Boy Moog’s singing, “I’ve never been to London.” But we on Candy Mind have heard that the truth is that it’s not true. Apparently both the Girl and the Moog have been to London. The Boy however was forced to stay home. Someone must guard the house you know.

BRITNEY25 – forget mi note

BRITNEY25 – forget mi note
[LCNLP156]

BRITNEY25

“forget mi note”

English Translation Below)
Le netlabel le Colibri Nécrophile présente forget mi note par Britney25
“Unforgettable Music for the Forgotten People”

Quelles que soient les vagues, elles reviennent toujours à la plage, aussi surement que le bras d’un tourne-disque, même si celle-ci a disparu depuis longtemps sous les détritus, eux même recouverts d’algues vertes potentiellement mortelles.

Si un esprit punk existe, ce n’est pas un truc de poseur, mais bien viscéral, genre la rencontre de l’urgence du futur présent et de l’écorché vif qui refuse de se laisser broyer par la machine du système.
Exhibition d’une sensibilité à fleur de peau, l’écho de nos cauchemars, partagés, dans une orgie de son. La résistance face à la souffrance. Porteuse d’espoir : même pas mal.
Résistance à l’oubli, du sel sur les plaies et au milieu du vomi, du trop-plein d’émotion, des caillots de sang qui n’ont pas de prix.
Oscillant à la frontière du grotesque, révolutionnaire ? Seule l’authenticité change la donne et nous donne envie de hurler nous aussi.
On est toutes et tous nés pour crever. Alors autant s’éclater avec la grâce de celles et ceux qui n’ont rien à perdre. Même pas mort encore. N’oublie pas, n’oublie rien.

Il semble que la musique horsnorme ait toujours été trop punk pour le public de la musique expérimentale et trop expérimentale pour le public punk. La musique de Britney25 est horsnorme, sans place attitrée, toujours en mouvement, jamais là où on l’attend, vivante jusqu’au dernier instant… et au-delà.
C’est une joie d’accueillir le dernier rejeton de cette voyageuse apatride qui refuse de rentrer dans sa niche à la société du spectacle.

Au passage, un gros doigt à l’État français qui expérimente le R.S.A avec travail forcé pour faire disparaitre un peu plus celles et ceux qui créent dans les marges.

(Traduction française au-dessus)
The Necrophile Hummingbird netlabel presents forget mi notte by Britney25.
“Unforgettable Music for the Forgotten People”

Whatever the waves, they always come back to the beach, as surely as the arm of a record player, even if it disappeared long ago under the rubbish, themselves covered with potentially fatal green algae.

If a punk spirit exists, it’s not a poser thing, but a visceral one, like the meeting of the urgency of the now future and the living skinned who refuses to let oneself be crushed by the machine of the system. Exhibition of skin-deep sensitivity, the echo of our shared nightmares, in an orgy of sound. Resistance to suffering. Bearer of hope, not even hurt !
Resistance to oblivion, salt on the wounds and in the middle of the vomit, the overflow of emotion, blood clots that are priceless. Oscillating on the border of the sublime and the grotesque, revolutionary ? Only authenticity changes the game and makes us want to scream too. We are all born to die. So might as well have fun with the grace of those who have nothing to lose. Not even dead yet. Don’t forget, don’t forget anything.

It seems that horsnorme music has always been too punk for experimental music audiences and too experimental for punk audiences. Britney25’s music is horsnorme, with no assigned place, always on the move, never where you expect it, alive until the last moment… and beyond. It is a joy to welcome the latest offspring of this stateless traveler who refuses to return to her niche in the society of the spectacle.

By the way, a big fuck to the French State which is experimenting a new RSA (the french solidarity allowance) with forced labor to make those who create on the margins disappear a little more… in the hands of the firms.
