<img src="swen.antville.org" align="left"hspace="3"> neubauten.org: No Beauty Without Danger tells the true story of Einstürzende Neubauten. Blixa Bargeld, Andrew Unruh, Alexander Hacke, Mark Chung, FM Einheit, Rudolf Moser, Jochen Arbeit and numerous other key players speak on dignity, on self-determination and manipulation, on creative discipline and drug excess, on Kango hammers and architectural criticism.

Max Dax and Robert Defcon recorded and compiled No Beauty Without Danger based on 43 authorized interviews. Much myth and media hype is revealed as such. At the same time, Einstürzende Neubauten allow deep insight into their working methods, sound research and the band's history -- all in their own words.

The books are hardcover, limited to 500 copies in each language, and will only be available on the 25th Anniversary Tour and through this website. More info here

Along with Cabaret Voltaire and Throbbing Gristle,Germany's Einstürzende Neubauten ("collapsing new buildings") helped pioneer industrial music with an avant-garde mix of white-noise guitar drones, vocals verging on the unlistenable at times, and a clanging, rhythmic din produced by a percussion section consisting of construction materials, hand and power tools, and various metal objects.

In der November Ausgabe des "Sonic Seducer" sind 13 der schon legendären Hornbach Videos (mpeg Format) von Blixa Bargeld auf der beigefügten CD zu finden. Die Audio Tracks der CD schwanken zwischen harmlos und langweilig.
Ach ja, die Band "Chamber", deren neue CD im Heft vorgestellt wird, hat quasi unplugged auf der After-Hochzeit Party eines Freundes von mir gespielt. War auch ganz nett.

english:
If possible, buy the german magazine "Sonic Seducer". All the video clips of Blixa Bargeld, reading from the catalog of "Hornbach" are on the CD which comes with the mag.

"Was ich letztendlich anstrebe, ist eigentlich der Zerfall des materiellen Fetisches CD oder welches Tonträgers auch immer. Jedes Mal, wenn ich das sage, schreit irgend jemand auf und sagt, aber eine CD oder Schallplatte, das ist doch super, sowas zu besitzen. Das trifft allerdings für 90 Prozent der von den großen Fünf in die Welt gesetzten Produkte überhaupt nicht zu. Das sind lieblose Plastikverpackungen und ich hoffe, sie werden vom Filesharing hingerichtet werden, regelrecht."
Das komplete Interview gibt's bei der Netzeitung

The Melbourne based duo of Fox and Pateras have become quite renowned over the last couple of years via their strange, though entertaining improvisational electro acoustic performances, in which Fox utilises Pateras as his sound source, and in real time treats and manipulates him electronically. Utilising discarded piano frames, contact mics, undisclosed objects, and vintage synths that are then deconstructed/enhanced/disturbed via Fox’s computer processing, the resultant sounds are a strange often ill fitting mesh between the two worlds.More

Portable (aka Alan Abrahams) emerged out of the ruins of a post-apartheid era. He grew up in the impoverished Cape Town township, Bonteheuwel (Bounty Valley) aka "Beverly Hills".

As a teenager in the late eighties, he would spend time at makeshift shebeens (illegal bars) that doubled as clubs. At shebeens, DJs, despite apartheid sanctions, managed to find tunes like the Master C+J's "Dub Love", the Housemaster Boys' "Housenation"and Adonis' "No Way Back." The raw basement feel of these tracks would have an impact on the music Portable would later produce. More
