ANGEL – HEDONISM

in co-operation with Editions Mego (who will release the cd-digipak version, again designed by Stephen O`Malley), we proudly present Angel`s second studio album : Hedonism.

Despite only being released now ‘Hedonism’ is actually the first studio album by Dirk Dresselhaus and Ilpo Väsiänen as duo, a project which started in 1999. 5 years in the making and being started before Hildur Gudnadottir joined forces, ‘Hedonism’ is collision of urban and rural settings.
The opening five blistering tracks retain a full in sci-fi punk feel being made in Dirk’s Berlin studio. Tracks such as ‘Holding Loose’ and ‘Adrenaline Strike’ are brutal urban mantras bristling with energy. These are followed by electro-acoustic exercise manipulating various concrete sources, leading up to the final 2 pieces recorded at Ilpo’s lakeside
cottage in the wilds of northern Finland. Here fragile field recordings of insects, fish eating mosquitos, birds mesh with the duos shiny electronics to create the massive ‘Mirrorworld’. The closing ‘Hornet’ while stating a calm atmosphere has a somewhat startling surprise in store for the listener

take care,
MWM

dear all,
last thursday (20. 11. 2008) i (kptmichigan) had the honour of joining station 17 on stage for 4 songs. i also had the pleasure of playing an e chord for 7 minutes with michael rother (together with station 17) of NEU! fame which i was also highly excited about (the first tuesday weld album featured a neu! style stomper called “das auf e”).
it was a truly wonderful evening i will never forget. a huge thank you to the station 17 gang for having me along.
bellow you can listen to the piece dennis and i performed.
späters,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

two bits of exciting news for you.

First of all, we proudly present you the MWM digital re-release of Tuesday Weld`s debut album (Herself).

Tuesday Weld (Herself) (MirrorWorldMusic 320kbit Re-Release)

(1996, co released by Supermodern and Dhyana. Physical format available via Supermodern)

Tuesday Weld`s debut album which merges influences ranging from classic Indie rock to Kraut rock, lo-fi and almost dadaesque shenanigans. Recorded by bunch of mentaly deranged southerners at a time when playing guitars wasn`t the coolest thing on the planet to do. They thought they were too late but time would prove them wrong………they were too early.

Station 17 : Goldstein Variationen

Secondly, in June there will be a co-op release of the 3rd instalment of The Goldstein Variationen. We were invited up to Hamburg to record with the diasbled persons musicians collective Station 17. We jammed for 2 days and the results were then made into “versions” (a Schneider TM track and a kptmichigan remix of said track). 17records will release the physical format (a 12″ which will come with amazing artwork by the Frankfurt based disabled persons artist collective Atelier Goldstein) which will also contain a song by Ted Geier and Station 17 and we`ll be doing the digital version and we`re working on a very special feature for that release.
