New Detrivores
We're pleased to announce 2 new detrivores
have been added to the fold: Wetgate, the all-projector
orchestra, have launched their new website, wetgate.net,
hosted on the Detritus server. Stop by and watch them turn
celluloid into HTML. Really quite magical.
And, HotAir, the UK label responsible for wonderful releases
by Stock, Hausen, and Walkman, Dummy Run, People Like Us,
and more, have recently set up camp on the Detritus machine
as well and are even now building some pages. We'll tell
you the secret URL once the plaster has dried.
-------- Upcoming CD releases --------------
-In the next couple of weeks, the new People Like Us
campfire songs CD, "Fistful of Knuckles" will be out on
Caciocavallo. This will be followed a few weeks later by a
split single with Matmos, on the same theme.
-Negativland's new TRUE/FALSE release is in progress for
release early next year.
-Seeland will be releasing a John Oswald Plunderphonics box
set sometime soon. Watch http://www.negativland.com for
information.
------- New Detritus Content -----------------
Other than yet another archive of exciting discussions from
the Rumori mailing list ( detritus.net/contact/rumori ), the
site has been quiet lately. However, there are 4 of John
Oswald's Mystery Tapes that have recently been encoded to
MP3 waiting to be placed on-line. We will make one
available each week for the next 4 weeks. Check
http://detritus.net/archive/mystertapes/ every Saturday for
the newest offering.
Also, the Detritus Sound Consensus Bakery is up to version
.98b. With 6 days till the big election, what better vote
can you make than a vote for sound collage? Hop down to
http://soundbakery.detritus.net and fill out a ballot, then
listen to the results.
That's it for now. Until the next time....
