of Sound - Feature Article by Frank Rothkamm" (feature) Primary Cinema remains cinema, it is not
painting or staged photography. It is comprehended as a sequence of images with sound which
ultimately constructs its meaning. It de-emphasizes change and reduces bright-ness and distributes
events on a galactic scale, but despite its apparent emptiness it remains true cinema as the
marriage of projected images and sound in space and time.br /
http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=273br / feature by Frank Rothkammbr / br / "The Gyres,
Between Nowhere and Goodbye, The End of Everything" (feature)br / Cathal Rodgers moonlights from
his grubby guitarings with Irish doom-mongers Wreck Of The Hesperus as Wereju. Moonlight is
apposite in application to Wereju, less evil more eerie twin, drawing out long rays of wild
half-lit nightshade shimmer over grey evacuated fields, a sound described by the artist as "ageless
drifting melancholia of an abandoned planet".br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=261br /
feature by Alan Lockettbr / br / "A Ritual Which is Incomprehensible (to the smile of Pauline
Oliveros) - Claudio Parodi" (review) The second in an ongoing series of conceptual works by Claudio
Parodi sourcing and manipulating music from Tiziano Milano's Suoni CD (2005), not so much to remix
but as staple material for processing in the studio. This time as with the last, the album is
dedicated to a well known sound artist, and Pauline Oliveros is the chosen one on this occasion.br

Taub" (review)br / Bedside Stories is the new release by Taub, aka Me Raabenstein and Harold Nono.
It is a work of haunting sonic landscapes and fragmented realities, glued together with precision
and beauty. It will lull you into worlds of spacious minimal sounsdcapes and sonic cinematic
journeys, which constantly resolve back to a single sound event or just quiet.br /
http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=271br / review by Roger Millsbr / br / "Document 2 -
Sevenhourgerm" (review)br / Document 2 by Sevenhourgerm aka Matthew Atkins is a CDR including nine
experimental tracks released on the Minimal Resource Manipulation label. Found sounds and noise are
crafted into varying degrees of coherency, with rhythm and melody flirting at the edge of
perception.br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=276br / review by Alex Youngbr / br /
"Electronic Drifting: The Music of Richard Lainhart" (review)br / Many contemporary musicians take
their inspiration from natural processes. Richard Lainhart's musical models come from clouds,
flames and waves, whose nebulous and ever shifting formations are the catalyst for his beautiful
electronic works.br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=262br / review by Caleb Deupreebr /
br / "Imperfect Silence - Various" (review)br / Imperfect Silence is a radical collaboration
between artists working together purely online. Global boundaries and cultural differences make way
for free jazz and diverse sonic improvisation, as Phil Hargreaves edits together the material to
provide a personal narrative of Cadavre Esquis.br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=275br /
review by Alex Youngbr / br / "Italian Noise Label Dokura Serves up 3 Mini Cdrs" (review)br /
Dokura is an Italian noise label that releases limited edition tapes, 3 inch CDRs and the
occasional vinyl lp from a variety of international artists. With 10 releases to date, the little
label seems to be aiming at noise of the instrumental variety swinging closer to the lo-fi dark
ambient drone.br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=269br / review by Derek Mortonbr / br /
"Lost Hilde - Stray Ghost" (review)br / The releases on Highpoint Lowlife switch genres like
someone channel surfing through alternative music TV. Lost Hilde adds yet another station to the
programming, and an engrossing one at that. Everything begins as a smooth midnight cruise through
glitched and looped synthetic sounds.br / http://www.furthernoise.org/page.php?ID=270br / review by
Max Schaeferbr / br / "Sympathetic Vibration - Marcus Jones" (review)br / Often, recordings exist
as complete works in themselves, or as documents or mementos of a live performance. Sympathetic
Vibration is one of a rapidly expanding body of works that do not fit easily into either category,
blurring the boundaries between recorded materials and live event. Stacey Sewell chats to its
creator, phonographer and sound designer Markus Jones.br /
