SET PHAZER TO STUN (BOTTIN / SIOUX CITY BOYS RMXS)
12 Inch 29.11.10
the recent time and space machine album released on tirk caused quite a stir. received by fans, press and pundits with a bright glowing prodigiousness, we just had to have one final foray into the 12 inch single department. the albums title track set >phazer to stun< was always a favourite with pulsating krautrock influences, nicely melded with some dirt cheap farfisa organ, freakbeat drumming and (of course) plenty of phazer.
ample play records release a heavy duty collection of richard norris recent time and space machine mixes on double vinyl, including download code. a man of many guises, he has operated as a duo - as the grid with dave ball, as beyond the wizards sleeve with erol alkan - but when it is time for some solo sonic action, he records and remixes as the time and space machine. we find him at it here: *the way out sound from in*, reworking the most cosmic beat combos around into hitherto unheard psychedelic shapes. warpaint, jagwar ma, temples, psychemagik, the sufis and more fall into the time and space machine and come out the other side with wider grins and shinier eyes. it is the way out sound from in ... all aboard.
nachdem das letztjährige jagwar ma-album -howlin- dance- und indie-pop-freunde gleichsam in seinen bann zog und die musikpresse in dem werk die direkte nachfolge zu primal screams -screamadelica- sah, ist nun die zeit reif für die -the time and space machine dub sessions-. beeinflusst von dub und krautrock hat sich richard norris (the grid) an die regler gesetzt und einige der schlüssel-tracks des albums nochmals radikal überarbeitet. jagwar ma spielen die beiden festivals melt! und dockville und werden dabei erstmals auf hiesigen bühnen ihre musik vorstellen.

next up on tirk we have a brand new act, named free school. hailing from birmingham, shoegaze duo andy and steve bring the sunny balearic sounds of summer and the icy kosmiche sounds of winter all in one sweeping hit. free school are maximalist and minimalist all at once.
the band like to compare themselves to caribou, orbital, hot chip, fourtet, and pet shop boys, all pretty good touchstones in our eyes, however it was the sheer gloriousness of their music that had us hooked.
their debut ep features the uplifting and euphoric >ranting and raving< and the 9 minute sound-movie >lemon<. remixes come from richard norris and his time and space machine project (we are going to have to put this guy on the payroll soon) and russian ice cool customer sportloto. free school also appear live (in sheep masks no less) so watch out for them at a venue near you. their debut album is in the pipeline and already sounding good.
