Los Siquicos Litoraleños: Sonido Chipadelico (Sham Palace)

"Sham Palace (USA) and Annihaya (Lebanon) are pleased to present from the mystical locus of Curuzú Cuatiá, in Corrientes, rural northeastern Argentina, Los Siquicos Litoraleños, with their first international full-length release. The result: a unique triumph of homegrown rural psychedelia, standing alone on the edge of an unchartered vanguard. Los Siquicos have spent the past decade recording and performing mountains of material and distilling it into a rare form of ultra-cerebral roots music from the countryside; rich with strange passion, beauty, experimentation, horror and humor. Corrientes sits in the Argentine Mesopotamic region, in the area known as el Litoral. Inhabitants of this region are known as Litoraleños.

Los Siquicos Litoraleños (The Psychics of el Litoral) aren't running from their musical heritage, they are staring straight at it -- spinning it around, refracting it, and transmuting it into something that is probably one of the most genuine things that has happened to folk, rock, experimental or psychedelic music in many years. Having met through various musical projects in the mid-2000s, Los Siquicos formed as a trio in 2004, determined to develop an unheard style of music. They created their own genre -- Chipadelia, (a reference to the traditional chipá bread, typical of northeast Argentina and Paraguay). It involves equalizational demolition therapy -- which they describe as 'using sound to change people's perceptions, and words to produce cognitive dissonance in order to free the masses from the prison of fixed ideas and prejudices.'

Being a peripheral band living in a semi-rural town, Los Siquicos remained outsiders to the Argentinian rock circuit for quite a while, though their unpredictable live performances in Buenos Aires caused a stir amongst the local scene. Their shows often feature extended line-ups, with members cloaked in surreal gaucho costumes, playing segments of free-music and altered versions of chamamé and cumbia tunes influenced by the myriad regional gaucho dance bands. All the while, projections of cows, fractals, UFOs and their beloved countryside play out in the background. At home, they're affectionately referred to as 'El Pink Floyd de los pobres' -- the poor man's Pink Floyd.

Over time, the group has gained underground acclaim both nationally and abroad after sending their signals out in the form of self-released CDs, internet presence, and a handful of European tours. This collection has been culled from multiple recordings made between 2005 and 2010. It showcases some of the finest compositional moments in the group's dense and damaged repertoire -- pitched-down cumbias soaked in dub brine, swirling solar instrumentals, and surrealist, shamanic lyrics laid across guitars, drums, tapes and electronics. Forty-four minutes of deep, multi-fidelity electric and acoustic psychic sound-forms for a better today.

Los Siquicos Litoraleños are the contemporary group you keep hoping exist, but can never find. If you were to reach for spiritual comparisons, you wouldn't be forgetting the most spirited moments from Sun City Girls, Butthole Surfers, Faust, Os Mutantes, Captain Beefheart or The Residents. Sonido Chipadelico opens with the mind-melting psych-rocker 'Cinta Planeteria' -- like a Latin American time-travel experiment gone wrong. 'Cachaka Espejo,' 'Tenemos Semillas' and 'No Sabemos Nada' reinvent cumbia radio tunes as if heard from a distance of at least two blocks away on a dirt road in the barrio, then deconstructed, propelled into the outer ether, and beamed back into a burning dub transistor. 'El Chipa Chiriri' is a subverted chamamé-styled track -- revealing the recipe for the local Corrientes cheese bread. 'Necesita Ecualisacion' is a call for aural and mental equilibrium encouraging change rapidly from the present state of things to an improved and more complex, flexible state. The hypnotic 'Sirena Chunga y la Movida Solar' is perhaps one of the strangest folkloric songs ever committed to tape -- not unlike what light must hear when it travels inside of a vacuum. 'Si, Si, Si' is an uptempo, angular anthem in collaboration with Dutch experimental duo Static Tics. Also included is Los Siquicos' haunting acid-ballad cover of 'Quizás, Quizás,' and much more -- further into the greater depths of sound and surprise..." - Mark Gergis.

menny tämmönen ihan ohi icon_surprised

There is a new Alan Bishop solo cassette. It was actually released
some months ago now. There are only 300 copies, but there is almost
no distribution for it. The only places I have seen it for sale are
Fusetron, Aquarius and Discogs. I think the Discogs seller is the
label. They also put out a Robert Millis (Climax Golden Twins) solo
cassette. They are pro-duplicated and Alan's tape is about 44
minutes long.
What's it sound like? It is a cut-up collection of radio - a lot of
talk radio - with Uncle Jim reactions and interjections on the first
side. There are bits of music, the sounds of hell, complaints about
cellphone usage, what sounds like a few answering machine messages,
and I think I recognize Art Bell. Pretty fun.

ei näy enää myynnissä discogsissa, laitoin viestiä fusetronille jos edes siellä tärppäis.

veljekset taas kovin akustisella päällä:

New Alvarius B LP: What One Man Can Do With an Acoustic Guitar, Surely Another Can Do With His Hands Around the Neck of God. (Abduction) Available May 13, 2014.
The album title pretty much says it all. Yes we know thats the same thing we said about last years Alvarius B archival release Fuck You and the Horse you Rode in on LP, but while What One Man Can Do has a similar approach in attitude, it comes a decade later as solo acoustic guitar instrumentals recorded during the 1990s. Perhaps, if its contextualization you are seeking, you could consider this a continuation of the first Alvarius B album (ABDT004 - acoustic guitar instrumentals recorded during the 1980s). Or you could simply imagine that these are songs about strangling people like you with a low E steel guitar string. This (recorded straight to cassette) acoustic guitar sound has more of a resemblance to a performance on power tools than it does to strumming or picking a Martin flat top. So if youve been leisurely waking up on Sunday mornings to sit down, have a cup of tea in your non-smoking kitchen breakfast nook staring out into the garden while listening to your old Fahey records, step aside and let someone else own this piece of waxsomeone who may take the body of an old fucked-up guitar and start pounding people like you into the pavement with it. Extremely limited one time pressing of 400 LP copies.

A Special Facebook Message From Sir Richard Bishop
As some of you may know, I am not a very big fan of Facebook. In fact, I'm surprised it's still up and running and that youre all still here. Man, somebody just last week told me that Rou Leed passed away? Shit, is Paul McCartney still dead? What else did I miss? Who had babies? Cmon, whos repopulating? Its been over a year since I deleted the original SRB Facebook page and holy snapping arseholes, what a year its been. I relinquished a fair amount of dead weight, crawled out from underneath the house, and since I was homeless, decided to venture out of the country, eventually stowing away on the USS Fuckstick. Next thing I knew I was living in a converted sheep house on the grounds of a fancy estate built in 1722 on the outskirts of Geneva, Switzerland, near the Lake Geneva shoreline (insert Deep Purple reference here) - how that carrier got into a landlocked lake is still a mystery to me. Regardless, this particular estate had a well documented history of hosting clandestine meetings over the years between some of the world's biggest movers and shakers: bankers, judges, media moguls, corporate CEOs, presidents, prime ministers, generals, popes, pedophiles, ambassadors, and a whole slew of other foreign dignitaries, perhaps even Bono himself. While in the land of watches, cheese and chocolate, I managed to record over six hours of new music. When the weather got cold I hightailed it over to SE Asia where I recorded more new material and continued to work on a number of secret projects. On the way I made a quick stop in Moscow but never left the airport transit zone. I was there just long enough to trade briefcases with a client. I have spent the past four months in Thailand. I would like to make it clear that I have had nothing to do with any of the protests or violent clashes that have been taking place in Thailand over the past 4 months. Its a coincidence. Thats all it is. Did I mention Ive made some recordings? Right now theres a gecko outside my window saying Fuck Me over and over! I will be landing in Cairo in a few hours - its Spring!
What was I.oh, Facebook! Yeah, so 2014 is going to be a wild ride, see? Things are happening. Can you feel it? Somethings not quite right. For example, I have three new vinyl releases coming out real quick-like, probably before this paragraph ends, and theyre all fucking swell. And who the hell knows, there could be even more before the year passes. Its hard to get the facts nowadays. Then theres the SRB Fall clothing line, the publishing house, the updated website, and of course, the lawsuits. Ive got a European tour starting soon and I am planning to do a US tour this summer. But since I have been away for so long, I have to ask - is it still legal for musicians to tour in the US? Either way, there is so much happening and I want to make sure that the all the pertinent information gets out to you, the people. Yeah, power to the people. Right on, man! This is why Ive levitated back: according to my sources at the NSA, CIA, DHS, FEMA, and many of the other alphabet soup agencies, it has been determined that even though it has reached its golden years, when creeping dementia finally begins to take hold, Facebook is STILL the number one place to gather..I mean SHARE information. And its all because of people like you! So here it is - the new official NSA monitored Sir Richard Bishop Facebook page - same as the old one. May it fall flat on its face!

Google Translate can be a thing of beauty sometimes. English translation of a lengthy Spanish article:
THE MULTIPLE HALLUCINATIONS OF SIR RICHARD BISHOP
We take the ride of Sir Richard Bishop on the peninsula [concert on May 13 in the Heliogábal in Barcelona and May 14 at Sirocco in Madrid] to chat with him about his present musical, their different backgrounds and those annoying tags that haunt people.
In 1998, Mr. Bishop, then at the height of the bizarre with the band Sun City Girls (with his brother Alan), released his first solo album, the sympathetically named "Salvador Kali". A jumble of aflamencadas parts, and other hypnotic ragas on guitar explorations. Although the album was released by Revenant Records, the peculiar brand new album by John Fahey, Bishop in person only coincided with the then already disintegrated and guitarist drunk on a single occasion. According to local history, one of those Myths and Legends of the West Blue, shortly after the album's release Bishop Fahey approached a drunk in a dive bar in Seattle where the veteran had played instrumentalist. After introducing as Sir Richard Bishop, Fahey was silent for a few seconds before finding: "You play like the devil." And that's where the dialogue went: Bishop not wanted to "mess" with more conversation. It's been eighteen years, and has since survived the death of a friend, the end of his main musical project and thousands of diabolically broken strings above scenarios. Although it has never been interested in the finger-picking faheyano, has established itself as a worthy successor to the guitar, building a catalog of more than twenty albums which runs through the hidden passages of the mystical, exotic and true. "My main motivation is to keep working and find new ways of approaching the guitar. It is difficult at times, but to no avail no try. "He admits. "There are more things to do - music, movies, travel, writing, whatever. I always look forward. I do not know where I'm going, but that's how it should be. "
Hypostasis is the underlying substance, shared existence between the physical and spiritual bodies. Hypostasis is the title given to the most recent composition Bishop. "My intention was to focus on making a single" piece "for the long drive and well turned out, although I broke into three parts. Also wanted it to be improvised. All pretty simple. "Piece of more than half an hour, begins mysteriously mutates to contemplation and finally explodes in streams guitarreo sadistic in its closure. "The three fragments, although separate, are a natural progression, and together form a sense. I designed it to be listened to from beginning to end, in one sitting. "It is the first work of Bishop for VDSQ, hyper-sybaritic neat and LPs record label that publishes only acoustic guitar solo. "For years I was in contact with the director, Steve Lowenthal, although it was not until last year that I had time to organize something. I have not made purely acoustic so I felt that now was the time. "Bishop shares alignment with Thurston Moore and Chris Brokaw, among others.
The last months have been hectic for Bishop, who confesses that as soon as "strives to listen to music. I spend most of my time working and concentrating solely on my own material. Sound strange, perhaps even selfish, but it really helps me focus on creating things without distractions or influences. I can not imagine otherwise at this point. I recommend it to any musician active. "Just released the EP Road to Siam and has released a split album with his brother Alan Bishop (whose stage name is Alvarius B), under the title of aggressive and untranslatable If you do not Do not like it ... "It's actually something my father used to say in their times of heavy drinking," says Bishop, "in relation to what was what was complaining then. I had many quotes so we have recovered over the years, such as You boys hate me? FINE Now or If it blows up, Park it! "This last would title one of many videotapes edited the Sun City Girls. "If you do not like ... it's also a phrase that could easily be applied to groups of SCG in the early days (even later)," he admits, "but we never had to pronounce it. There was no need to clarify it, we say. "Since the band Sun City Girls ceased to exist, the brothers have continued their separate ways. "We get along pretty well. We talked often about collaborating again and releasing new material. In fact just yesterday we considered, as we are both in Cairo. "Brothers are scheduled concert Brothers Unconnected, live project where, in homage to the mysterious battery SCG, Gocher Charles, died in 2007, recovered, with two guitars, some of the most iconic songs taken from their dozens of discs. "It's a matter of finding some time and create music. Looks like we both traveled incessantly and we could not solidify anything. But it will happen at some point. "
Following the SCG tradition editing more music that the public has no material time to listen (to late eighties they released twenty cassettes and then kept the pace, defecating on average three albums a year), Bishop threw four digital releases late last year, as if to choke his listeners. "The material that composes are little things that had thrown the files and had not been used until now. Some are recent works although most date back years ago. "Stylistically diverse, reorganized meat contains moments of dizzying repetition (the droneante" Nile "thirty minutes, more extreme his role) and peculiar ambient pieces (" Be Seeing You "or" Duckbill Gamelan "). "They cover a lot of genres; acoustic, electric, soundtracks, electronics, abstraction, contract work, etc.. I knew I was going to get a decent amount of new equipment this year, so I wanted a bit empty and clean the file to avoid having to go back and rescuing things. "Of course, you still have more sounds in dusty folders. "These are the tracks that had an acceptable quality of audio and wanted to bring them to the atmosphere. I was too busy (ie I was too lazy) to do CD-Rs so I opted for the digital edition. "
Bishop's catalog and listen freely accessible on their website: without registering, without paying, not drivel. A but realistic risky option, which puts it in contrast to other artists more plaintive. "There is nothing worse than a musician quejita" asserts Bishop. "My opinion about the free streaming is simple: the idea is that the music is heard. I would like people to have this opportunity; not all buy something just to hear it. It will drop free. At this point no one can do anything about it, and I give a shit. So I think it's great that you can listen to my music free. Pay some money if you want to see me play live, which is a much more accurate of what I do musically representation. That's where the real magic happens, where probably the best blunders occur Worth every penny spent! "This speech of providing easy access to the people is contrasted with the inability to gain almost all the older material (we have up to the end 90) of Sun City Girls: never been re-edited. EBay circulating we can come up with individuejos selling his early cassettes for a hundred bucks and some for over two hundred LPs. Asked about the possibility of reprinting, Bishop shows obfuscated. "Someday, maybe, although it took many years saying that. We certainly retrieve multiple Discontinued album, especially the first three we took in Placebo plus Torch of the Mystics, Dawn of the Devi and Live from Planet Boomerang. "
They usually give the impression that after the demise of venerable sir Gocher a gray mourning period and confusing sonic vacuum is established: SCG were a birthing machine music. Sometimes the discs were filled with absurdities without rhyme or disposable filler "product" that was "beyond" any "understanding". In other, emerging foreign fantastically delicious melodies. It was undoubtedly one of the most extreme in what hue refers to bands. The songs could be blatantly humorous, hilarious; or reach high peaks of transcendence. Or both at once. How can such a stupid song nimiamente as "Soi Cowboy" be so exciting? Or "Dreamland" (extracted from Horse Cock Phepner, serious title) be laughably pathetic and seriously inspiring at the same time? Or "Cooking With Satan" get touching a chord with such hysterical lyrics? Maybe Asian sensibilities, as present in the music of SCG, do not provide much separation of ends in his art. "I do not remember how we composed things," admits Bishop. "The vast majority of improvisation arose. Although we shared the feeling of 'anything goes', it probably oeuvres as such. So many ideas, so many avenues to explore the three ... I do not think we had a concrete plan, we spent most of our waking hours playing music and pushing us to go any direction at any time, without thinking, without knowing where it would end. "Came to edit Therefore material that is impossible, really, to discern "where" ended, if not in all possible corners of the world. "That led us to different places, becoming natural. A seriously improvised musical moment could easily mutate into a drama queen piece, which could then turn into a country western song, then to an area of ethnic psychedelia, and beyond. The more we played together, either on stage or at home, more strategies, developed a method in which, regardless of where we started and where we finished, everything seemed to fit in some strange but coherent manner. "Usually, each Disk Sun City Girls is a surprise; Sometimes nice, sometimes ugly. From free jazz to noise deranged rock, through adolescent jokes, lo-fi drones, berberas dances, Vietnamese and surf-and-three hundred thirty-three thousand other shit sonic beyond the Rig Veda.
When the Sun City Girls began had not the faintest idea what monster would end up creating. This year is the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of his first self-titled LP, 1984. Richard and Alan grew somewhere in Arizona in the seventies psychedelia listening on the radio and sucking exotic vinyl collection of his Lebanese grandfather. "All we had to SCG clear from the start is that we would do everything our way. We did not want to have anything to do with any industry or music business or anything that other bands were doing. "They agreed time and space with bands like the Meat Puppets but opted to go to your roll completely, but later drew friends with other formations like the similarly unclassifiable Thinking Fellers Union Local 282. "We knew that our music does not attract the attention of many people and we did not care. We did not cared about what others thought (I still do). It's a great way to approach making music or any kind of art. Let everything happen. "This approach is of course, as independent as possible. Needless to say that SCG ultra-eclectic remained until the end of his days and they were never crossed my mind dealing with some "big" label. How should it impact such a bizarre and exotic in Phoenix late eighties music, so we can only imagine.
The labeled "Orientalism" Music Sun City Girls, who make use of structures, tools, concepts and sounds of the music of this to create their own appropriation engenders mashed different influences, making a bizarre mixture of West and East , or different Estes. "I do not consider my own 'history' as a place or locality from where I was born and grew up in or what my ethnic heritage. That's clogs and may limit you to one perspective. When you have removed these limitations and no matter what kind of music touches you apropies or interpreters. Anything goes "The musician is a channel of interpretation that can be shaken by sensitivities of different parts of the world -. Although obviously SGC received accusations of making imperialist pastiche, which deformed bastard children of Edward Said's Orientalism. Of "appropriate" unduly culture of others. Like Bishop, in his solo career, investigating their own way sounds elsewhere. Obviously like all criticism seems ridiculous. "Who decides further what my precedent? It's not something that worries me. I try to play what I hear and what sounds good to me, although most of the time I do not know what I'm going to play until I touched it. "
Is the work of Sir Richard Bishop and the Sun City Girls "world music"? At a time like the present, in which if one walks her fingers and labeled shelves in record stores corportativas only going to come up with commercial waste in other languages, you may need to re-examine and weigh the label if possible an artist a Western country can draw closer to the music of other states that members of this "corrupted" by the "white" influences. "I do not much like the name 'world music'," he admits, a little surprisingly, Bishop. "What world are supposed to describe? Same with 'ethnic music' - what ethnicity? Do all or only dark people? It's like that both terms refer to almost anything that is not from a western country. But they are just words and neither descriptions says nothing about any kind of music. Agglomerates everything as one thing. Moreover, most of music in the world today sucks, but once was not always the case, "Everything is the same. Recordings rancheras jostle alongside Brazilian pop and nineteenth tangos, who cares? And perhaps paragraph rotten and lonely, some recordings cedé taiko or gamelan, gathering dust. Similar fate would run, if present, Sublime Frequencies discs, Alan Bishop Label dedicated to bareback edit songs recorded on the streets of Fez, Bali or Bangkok.
Just like his brother dedicated to travel the world in search of authenticity, Sir Richard Bishop is also a born traveler and spends much of his time in other climates and latitudes, cabins and creeks, trying to capture the tradition in its purest form. "If you're in small towns you can still run into people who plays traditional music, although it is rapidly disappearing," he laments. "Once you're in cities seems, at least the places that I travel lately (Indochina and India) that young people are not interested at all his own musical heritage. Older may want to talk about it or even play instruments, but new generations want to be part of the 'modern world' and listen to popular music types filthiest - Canning dance pop auto-tune vocals and shitty beats, rock heap , cloying ballads about lost love and all that crap. Global corporate music - music for morons. It is everywhere. You are in charge, you have won! And that will never be changed. It's a shame, but it is not a surprise. "Bishop remains in the photo blog web Captured in Asia, where you hang snapshots taken on their routes. Are not needless to say, the perfect visual accompaniment to their music, especially the series of discs framed within SCG Carnival Folklore Resurrection collection. Remains of dogs licking dog skull tattooed Thai transvestites mic in hand, where paintings are decapitated skeletons, giant wooden languages in kilometers, mannequins and other bizarradas street. Bishop recalls his first steps adventurous: "Except for a couple of trips to England when I was in high school, I really started traveling in 1983, when I spent some time in Egypt and Morocco, with a few stops in Europe between. Being young was very inspiring - had little knowledge of things by then, but sowed the seeds for short breaks and subsequent studies. I realized that this was the best education that money can buy. After that trip, every few years I was somewhere else, usually in Asia. "It is impossible to pick a" favorite place "but India and Thailand are the two countries that has visited. "I lack either go South America and Africa but my head seems to have been involved for many decades Asia I never stop there again. May be difficult to visit certain places in the near future considering how fucked the world is right now, so I try to do as much as I can as soon as possible. "
Apart from "exotic" music Bishop also could be considered "esoteric". Raising spectra have some mystical, evocative capacity. In the nineties he devoted much of his time studying the occult, and in fact he won partly living buying and reselling books related to the mysterious, making it a certain authority as a Kabbalistic music is concerned. "Well, not to be an expert, no one is," he says, modestly. "It would be my personal opinion if I said what artists 'caught it' - or just know if I get it. I must not validate any artist or band-not about what I think, but what they think "However, there have been many artists whose main motivation is to explore the esoteric. Bands British folk-rock in the '60s and 70 components of the neo-folk post-eighties, or the new batch of occult rock hipsteril descendant of Black Sabbath and Coven. "In my opinion, the secret behind musical and properly express any magical or mystical content is that it can only manifest as instrumental music," muses Bishop. "Everything revolves around the creating an atmosphere, the rest is a thing of the public, how it is perceived and what happens in it. If the singer or the leader begins to stammer or say about magic, almost always a lost cause. Sound pretentious and usually have no fucking idea what you're talking about. Rehashed phrases from a book. They should shut up. And me too! "

Alvarius B - Chin Spirits Cassette £6
choc.293

The onetime Sun City Girls slaphead has been spotted much recently strutting round Cairo in a perpetual fag reek haze, glugging on bottles of Omar Khayyam and hanging with the locals discussing all things bent, dodgy and conspiratorial, Samson Option?? House Of Saud is Secretly Jewish? David Icke has an extensive SCG collection?? Just be glad that he took time out from his sweaty enlightenment to pass this audio egg onto Chocolate Monk. Some sound collage, songs, instrumentals and more importantly insight. Originally set for a vinyl 10" release on some Belgian label, til the Reptilians got to them.

Edition of 60.
