The music of Bill Laswell

cha2uke | 24 May 20:00

and That

Now here is one neither known to the majority of the public. It features a track of that particular concert a
while ago during which Fred Frith made a lot of use of a certain playback function. Awesome effect. He
clones himself right in the middle of a song, suddenly or constantly. Howthahell he exactly does that
timed so perfectly is any one's guess. Absolutely no overdubs here. 3 on stage, 4 playing! Two of them
Fredful Frithes!

The purpose of this? To stimulate interest, to encourage Fred to go ahead with a possible/planned official
release. He once said during a casual occasion that he passed all the tapes to Tzadik, so they may do a
release of the yet unreleased stuff in the shape of a box release. It's already a while ago that he said so ...
Readers of the forum have bought the Henry Cow box, so it's clear what "box" means. And to rule out concerns
that this formation plays "Ambient" stuff or falls in the category of "Jam Bands?!".

What can be expected in case that Fred Frith makes this promise to the chazuke true? Quite a lot. With a dozen
sessions plus/minus a few performed and only 2 and a half released on CD, you can count. There is some stuff
left, a lot of it. Quality? Oh yes, all this kind of sh*t. Fred replied that, concerning these enormous
source signal overloads which even the pro engineers couldn't handle, nothing can and will be done about
them - you'll get what you hear. Isn't such a statement already music in the ears of the enthus*ast?

Occasion to mention that the Massacre is a Meridiem spin off, yes, this way round, and that another Meridium
album in the original line-up was promised to the mighty Percy Howard and also to us, so do go ahead you
Massacre, it's all good!

Sample to be played at full force, 10:00 ~. Same as seen before, this file must go after a few hits. Go do buy the box.

The title "Hey Willie" is this track's real official title according to the setlist. Willie is the name of my
best friend, and hey Willie, we greet you, this one is for you!

Nearly forgot it - so here is the file http://snd.sc/JGzIaN

Re: Praxis live recordings

It looks/sounds like it. A shame the entire show isn't available. I almost like "This" raw early phase better than some the later stuff (though its not alot to go by).

I think the sound clip "THIS" posted by Chazuke would perfeclty fit to a (Praxis?) live performance which was part of a Bill Laswell documentary:

http://ww w.youtube.com/watch?v=MuxoWN5zTKg&NR=1&feature=endscreen

go to:
[4:04 - 4:58]

YouTube Description:
A Dutch TvProgram Loladamusica did an interview with Laswell. Other musicians talking about Laswell: Liu Sola, DXT, Nicky Skopelitis.
Talking about:
Rockit - Hancock, Bootsy, Pharaoh Sanders and mainstream music.
Showing around Las's studio by DXT and Laswell's Bass collection.
Some shots of Praxis, with Buckethead, Brain, DXT.
Axiom
I think around 1995-1996, because tDXT is talking about a new project Altered Beats.
- - - - - -

Since it really sounds like an early Praxis live peformance (maybe the first live Praxis ever?!), this could be it.
Lineup would be: Bill Laswell, Nicky Skopelitis, Buckethead, Brain, DXT.

Wow, how could is this?

Yes, you are correct mantisaur. i have the bonnaroo show (audio) which is one of their best IMHO. there is video of the '04 Bonnaroo show (& some of Vegoose i think?) but i'm not sure if it's in their entirety or not (although i'm pretty sure at one time a Bonnaroo video/dvd was in circulation). seemingly m ost of what BL related shows exist stay hidden - unless (& except) of course when it is deemed necessary to make it known to anyone who might be interested that they exist. Much like the details of the "This" (?) clip. Reasons/rationale unknown.

http://dai.ly/mYmncs

this video is Praxis - Live <at> Bonnaroo June 11, 2004. The soundcloud snippet has some DJ sounds as well so I don�t t hink it�s the Bonnaroo show.

You can still download the entire show here:
http://www.livebonnaroo.com/live-music/0,2595/Praxis-mp3-flac-download-6-11-2004-This-Tent-Bonnaroo-TN.html

Hmmm? I also assume that soundcloud clip might be a Praxis show from the 90ies where the band was on fire for sure.

I�d definitely would like to hear the entire thing! :)

No clue here, but I guess it sounds similar to http://dai.ly/mYmncs

Wishing those fun at the forthcoming 3 shows. Well, the one this weekend isn't actually really neighborhood even from the perspective NYC. And there's more live stuff supposed to be in the works: way to go ...

Nice interview

Only if you can read french ...
Laswell talks about Blixt, MOD technologies and about a studio he has 
created in Addis-Abeba.
http://www.lapresse.ca/arts/musique/201205/19/01-4526939-bill-laswell-power-trio-power-impro.php

BTW I think that Hawk's Survive is a good surprise as I thought that 
recent reggae Laswell productions were'nt really exciting.
Probably because of the extremely good Sly & Robbie ridims.

Hawk Vinyl and next MOD Technologies release

For anyone who ordered the Garrison Hawk vinyl - thanks for being patient. I believe Redeye intends to have it out today as it was re-scheduled from the date that coincided with the CD release. Manufacturing delays because there was a lot of care put into this (i.e. high quality vinyl, not just a thrown together release). Will be worth the wait if you're a vinyl fan.

The next release is tentatively scheduled for June 26. Jano's 'Ertale'. Killer Ethiopian rock band recorded at the new studio in Addis Ababa. This has been in rotation for me for months. I think it's a killer release. Part of the planned Method Ethiopia batch of releases. Artwork by Doze Green, which has been tweaked from the original version I saw and is even better.

Spectre

I can't remember if I've posted this before, so my apologies if I have (though it certainly can't hurt to do it again...).

The new Spectre album (vinyl) is ready to go, but needs to be mastered before it can be released. Skiz has started (actually, a while back already) a Kickstarter funding campaign in order to get the $3,000 needed to make that happen. In short (if you are unfamiliar), you basically pledge to back a project. All the specifics are noted on the page. You are not charged unless the goal is actually achieved. For a $20 you get a copy of the record (pretty much in line with new vinyl+shipping prices). So in that instance it's almost as if you're just paying in advance for product. Seems like more and more people are doing this to make projects economically viable. Check out the page, read up, and if you're into it, please donate! about 2 days left and we're really close...
