mikael feels very lucky that he had the chance to work with artists who he admires and trust.etten is the voice of this project, however, in a mysterious way her voice sounds like the listeners inner voice .billie ray martin in her also excellent performance confesses to us her oedipal relationship with her mother, this constant bond we are all prisoners of. tech me away is an album made of sounds and references to good old techno. mikael didnt follow whats in fashion in music at all. he only followed his instinct.

the new album, liquorice, from martin stimming wasnt initially planned to be an album. there was an intrinsic need for him to express what was going on in this period of life. relationship problems led to a very punk, off-whack attitude to his producing. with seven tracks done and dusted, he figured the work was more than just a collection of weird shit, it was a whole new music experienceÉ add another 5 months of studio work, he named it liquorice. definitely hard to pigeonhole - call it minimal, stripped back, dub, experimentalÉ we think >electronic free jazz< comes the closestÉ no sign of a typical 4/4 bass drum at all and stimming has incorporated his trademark use of field recordings, from a marble run, a pizza slicer, a trashcan, a coffee machine, and an ice train shuttling past to name a few. the stimming esque percussion, which is even more radical this time, has been thrown in with all these facets in his massive melting pot, coupled with some dark emotions to create this liquorice. >this time i didnt use all the main events a groove normally has<, recalls martin

brimming with fall-esque attitude, guided by voices pop-sensibilities, and drive like jehu / fugazi / hŸsker dŸ style riffing, warm widow channel , the spirit of their influences into one totally kick-ass, brutally lo-fi rock sound - meticulously mastered by bob weston (shellac, mission of burma) at chicago mastering service - warm widow is the project of ex-tsuji giri frontman martin greenwood, and features zak hane of stranger son of wb on bass and lianne steinberg of breaking colts on drums ... info: manchester s warm widow never really intended to make this album Ð well, not in the way that widower presents itself anyway. this was supposed to be the scratchy blueprint for the actual warm widow album, recorded, you know, like proper albums are recorded: in a recording studio perhaps, with an array of appropriate microphones, with an actual producer (or certainly an engineer), and time to allow the band the breathing space to nail it , with additional options to try multiple takes and overdubs - in general, recording with a certain amount of control and ease.
