MuhMur Radio Broadcast 16 September 2021

 

This evening's broadcast is very Dilloway-centric. 

In July this year Hanson Records released the album "Lucy & Aaron" by Aaron Dilloway and Lucrecia Dalt. I managed to get a physical copy late August and I've been playing it on a daily basis since. I knew the name Lucrecia Dalt because last year Hanson Records released a "tour" edition of her 2013 album "Syzygy" on cassette for her European tour. I never managed to get a copy (limited to 75 I think), but if any one out there has a copy they're willing to part with then please get in touch. Lucrecia Dalt is a Colombian born pop singer resident in Berlin. She has previously released under the name Lucrecia and her 'real' name María Lucrecia Pérez López. As always when I start playing Aaron's albums I always want to hear more so at the same time as "Aaron & Lucy" I (re) discovered the 2005 album "Rotting Nepal". Released as a CDR on Hanson Records, I play side 2 of the vinyl version on Blossoming Noise. Hanson's Bandcamp is always worth a visit : https://hansonrecords.bandcamp.com. For London folk Lucrecia plays live at the Cafe OTO on October 5th. 

The sounds of Ditterich Von Euler-Donnersperg are quite regular on MuhMur Radio. Hot on the heels of his "Klein : Rot" LP that came out on the Hamburg label V I S in April this year comes "Weisheit Aus Des Kindes Mund Tut Uns Stets Die Wahrheit Hund". The title translates as "Wisdom From The Child's Mouth Always Tells Us The Truth". The album is on the Australian label A Colourful Storm. Available here : https://acolourfulstorm.bandcamp.com

"On This Day" features the 1981 12" single "Temperature Drop / Cool Down" by Stephen Mallinder. Stephen Mallinder was the bass player / vocalist with Cabaret Voltaire. This was released around the time that Cabaret Voltaire were just about to released the seminal "2x45" album. There are similarities. In 1982 Stephen released the album "Pow Wow" (also on Fetish Records) that features members of Last Few Days. 

Alvars Orkester are the Swedish duo Joachim Nordwall and Jan Svensson. They began their own label Börft label back in 1987 with the cassette Raggarslakt by Frak. The pieces here are from the new album "Deck Brush". The album is a collection of recordings from 1991 and 1992. I bought my copy direct from Börft. http://www.borft.com The Muckrackers track is from the 7" La Vie Set A Nous" on LFA. It's a split single with Le Syndicat and comes with a bonus 3" four track CDR.

                                                                              De Tian

De Tian were formed in Sheffield in 1978. In 1978 there was a 'Sheffield Scene', everyone seemed to be in a band at the time. There was a great mixture of post-punk, new wave, electronic, avant-garde and improvisational and undefinable bands and artists. (I would like to say that 'I was there', but I was about 40 miles east ... but I did do day trips). De Tian (or de tian ... it was always all lower case) were Paul Shaft, Paul Hague. There one and only release at the time was the 1980 7" EP "Two Spires Split" released on their own Oblique Sound imprint. The EP was to be released on the Sheffield independent Limited Editions label but never happened. Last year De Tian reformed with former Naked Pygmy Voles / Bass Tone Trap saxophonist Martin Archer and released the album "Transcritome" on Archer's own Discus label. I have played tracks from the album in past programmes. For more information on De Tian go to : https://discus-music.co.uk

Ediie Maelov + Sunshine Patteson were members of Gloria Mundi. "Lines" was their first single. The Severed Heads track is from the "Since The Accident" LP and the English Subtitles track is from their debut EP on Small Wonder Records. * Following on from the Dilloway & Dalt track "Tunnel" I thought it appropriate to play my DJ Card and follow it with "Time Tunnel".

Juice Machine are a live improvisational duo from Eugene, Oregon. The track here is from the split cassette with Path To Lobster Believers called "Weak Passwords". It was released on the now defunct Rainbow Bridge label. Juice Machine can be contacted at : https://juicemachine.bandcamp.com
