The Kurws (POL) with Oskar Carls on sax! Live at 23
The Kurws have formed in May of 2008 as a spontaneous consequence of a ping-pong session, which descended underground and remains there until today. They drew on influences, arising from punkrock as well as rock n’roll tradition, garage/surf, krautrock, rotten funk, no wave or british postpunk scene. The Kurws is punk, afflicted by the postmodernist curse with all of its benefit of inventory, where things are being born out of fusion and deconstruction. From an ambition to remain fresh and organic. At the same time it’s still an ordinary garage band, which brazenly takes the risk of collective improvising without proper musicianship, quietly dismissing the embarrassment of discredit. Their debut album “Dziura w getcie” (“Hole in a ghetto”) was released overseas.

“Shades of Ex-Models, Captain Beefheart, and Weasel Walter bands. All instrumental, serious, but not pretentious, fun, but not silly. Basically, my favorite type of rock band.”

LXMP (POL) live at 22
LXMP is a musical project of the two best-dressed people in Warsaw, Piotras and Macias. Using the basic set of drums, bass guitar and two MS-20 synthesizers, they are trying to recall the memories of romantic strolls across downtown Warsaw allotments, unexplained absences from phys-ed classes or the taste of snow in far-away mountain resorts. As professor Andrzej Obczyński once beautifully observed, “It’s all about fucking disaster, maaaan.” (The distinguished historian was stripped of his academic privilages after he made that remark during the quarterly luncheon of Vesser College faculty and sponsors, but his credibility with freshman students remained unscathed.) On May 14, 2010, the duo’s debut album, entitled – quite accurately – Trois Suites + Une Miniature, and containing just above 20 minutes of music, was published by the Lado ABC label. In 2012 they released two out or four planned albums in trio mode. First one guests Chad Popple of Collosamite/Gorge Trio and second Kazuhisa Uchihashi. Another recent LXMP project was a reinterpretation of Herbie Hancock’s classic ”Future Shock”. It was commisioned by the Unsound Festival in Cracow and since then was performed few times. In april 2012 they played their first U.S. tour performing at Lincoln Center in New York, Detroit Institute of Arts and Chicago’s Elastic.

29:90 live at 21
”Allkonstnärerna bakom 29:90 står för några av Stockholms mest intressanta ljud just nu. Det rör sig om musik hyfsat rotad i postpunk, no wave och liknande, men undviker att bli ännu en kopia av samma influenser och drar istället iväg i en helt egen riktning av ljudexperimenterande och stök.”

29:90 (Stockholm) invites you to their intimate world where they try to tame their instruments in dark and joyful play. The music is a rough sounding machine like rhythm where african bells and tomtom drums bounces on top of high pitched voices with live dubbing, singing babbles, lalas and songs about school bullying, compulsive behavior and the texture of an abusive tongue. This is Lotti Solovitsky and Nini Maakestads form of expression. From the moment Nini and Lotti decided to make music together spring 2012 they got so eager that they took their first chance to get started, a small room they had access to from 9 in mornings til noon. The world of expressions brought them together and grew stronger during early morning rehearsals before work.

Influences among others are Jun Togawa, Cold Wave, DIY and Avant-garde music from the late 70’s and 80’s. Their first gig was in the autumn 2012 supporting Italian duo Trouble V’s Glue for club Mother in Stockholm and they released a cassette that same night. This year they plan record and release a full length LP.

HYPNO TOWER (live at 20)
”Bakom Hypno Tower står Tanya Byrne, tidigare känd från syskonduon Ectoplasm Girls. Hypno Towers musik rör sig runt ödsliga ljudkollage, minimala rytmer, samplingar och processade elektroniska ljud, och för tankarna till såväl gammeldags industri som hiphop och elecro.”
