SLUG and THREAT live audio visual transmission salerno, saturday 21 february 2009 - iroko club piazzale largo campo, salerno, italy. first appearance in italy - expect customised audio and visuals.

"Tipico caso di gruppo che "ha seminato, ma non ha ricevuto il raccolto", i Portion Control insieme a Cabaret Voltaire e Legendary Pink Dot stanno alla base del suono di di gruppi come Front 242, Skinny Puppy e Front Line Assembly, ampiamente onorati anche da gruppi più "mainstream" come Depeche Mode, Orbital, Prodigy. Nati nel 1980, la prima fase della loro carriera dura fino al 1987 e vede all’attivo ben sette album e cinque Ep dove in pratica tutti i territori dell’electro-industrial vengono toccati, e dove compaiono molte caratteristiche che poi ritroveremo nei gruppi sopracitati: i primi album presentano le sperimentazioni e la voce che poi saranno di Ogre e cevin Key e cose vicine a SPK, Coil, Throbbing Gristle , altri successivi un discorso più lineare caro ai Front Line Assembly, così come alcuni pezzi che avrebbero spopolato nelle discoteche dell’epoca (The Great Divide tra tutti), se non fosse che al gruppo interessava solo sperimentare ogni possibilità della musica elettronica in quello che loro hanno sempre chiamato "hard rhythmic electronic". In seguito sono riemersi nel duemiladue grazie alle possibilità di autogestione offerte da internet e hanno piazzato sul mercato un paio di album e alcune uscite online che dimostrano come utilizzando i tanto bistrattati (dai puristi) softwares è possibile ottenere un suono old school e decisamente duro, naturalmente sapendo come fare e quali usare, e allo stesso tempo hanno offerto un ottimo esempio di come si può fare ebm moderna e sperimentale lontana da ogni clichè sia nostalgico, sia legato alle mode del momento."

MORDANT MUSIC PRESENT MR MAXTED

2008-08-14T16:08:00.026+01:00

After nearly 9 months dormant, MM today announce the release of a brand new album from fresh Mordant recruit Mr. Maxted. 'Lives & Privacy (94-89)' collects 9 tracks from the analog synth archives of this Roehampton-based meddler on a beautiful grey vinyl platter.

Artist: Mr Maxted

Title: 'Lives & Privacy (94-89)'

Label: Mordant Music

Format: Grey vinyl album in PVC sleeve with corrugated stiffener & A5 insert

Cat. No: MM022

Release Date: 4th August 2008

Tracks: Conditioned / People I Know / He Is Not Complete / We Must Understand / Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah / Consequence / It Never Works (When You Want It To) / Perfect / Upon Satellite (Edit)

Housed with a black corrugated stiffener & A5 'kit list' insert inside a PVC sleeve, this album is available now from this site ahead of other retailers at a series of prices according to location. If you're UK-based, you can buy the LP for £13, European customers can expect to pay £14, and it's £15 to punters residing anywhere else. More info: www.mordantmusic.com

'Lives & Privacy (94-89)' brings together nine archive minimal synth tracks from the vaults of Roehampton's feral analog spectre Mr Maxted...residing somewhere in the sullied vein of early Portion Control/Severed Heads, these late eighties/early nineties tape emissions have only just seen the light of day...the deft lilting lines of 'Consequence' and 'People I Know' really hit the spot here in the Nesst and that's why MM decided to spank the vinyl Jodrell again...this album is full of depth, mood and mirth and we urge you to snap the fucker up before Scandinavia gets wind of it.

MORDANT MUSIC // TWO NEW CD ALBUMS

2007-06-12T12:25:00.000+01:00

The Mordant Music puffball has spored again with the release of two new CD albums. Both are available to buy now from Mordant Music's brand new online vessel ahead of the full release elsewhere.

Artist: Mordant Music
Title: ‘Carrion Squared’
Label: Mordant Music
Format: CDCat. No: MM015
Release Date: June 2007

In the summer of 2006 Mordant Music were approached by Boosey & Hawkes to contribute to a library album of ‘drone’ based pieces....these 40 off-cuts of nascent synthetic scree reflect this association....this is ‘Carrion Squared’, the noxious unformed unwarranted harvest of the corvid’s collision with the business park hawk, the fruits of a discarded carcass....MM threatens to envelop....

Artist: Mordant Music
Title: ‘The Tower – Parts VII-XVIII’
Label: Mordant Music
Format: CD
Cat. No: MM016
Release Date: June 2007

Back in the heady fauxdieaval times of 2005 MM unwisely presented 'The Tower - Parts I-VII' (seven movements of mock-Tudor menace which failed to trouble a cellbound Burzum) to bemused spores....the imaginary tale of Lord Klattr & Baron Mordant chancing upon and fully investigating this brick morass through the medium of black metal electronics confounded to some extent....all the more reason then to extend the saga by a further eleven parts we thought....

MM015 & MM016 are also available to download exclusively as mp3 files from Boomkat.

PC @ BIMF

2004-12-20T00:01:00.002Z

"The legendary Portion Control (who influenced acts like Skinny Puppy) was surprisingly good, classic yet powerful EBM. They recently made their come-back with the double album Wellcome, their first new material since 1986! Two guys behind laptops, but a singer who was running around on stage like a madman. I'm not very familiar with their oeuvre, but I suspect that the Englishmen focused on new material, because I did not really recognize any songs. But it was certainly good stuff to move some body parts to."
