US electro guys Provision are back
North America’s electronic act Provision return after 4 years of total silence during which they spent time with their families and re-grouped. The band’s newest album “Paradigm Shift” is coming on November 20th 2010. Note that the band is now consisting of 3 members. Next to Breye 7x and Jen Kiser there is Matt Willis of Splendor Projekt who joined the band in 2009.
“Paradigm Shift” includes an 8 page booklet featuring lyrics, color photos, and production notes for 10 new tracks featuring male and female vocals by all 3 band members. Expect a darker, edgier feel than in previous Provision albums as a whole. Stylistically, this album leans more towards industrial dance and less towards synthpop; with harder edged tracks.
Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider Go
“Silver Surfer, Ghost Rider Go!!!” is the third single taken from Trentemøller’s acclaimed new album “Into The Great Wide Yonder”. With its thrilling guitars and blazing synths “Silver Surfer…” is the rockiest track off the album and comes with remixes by Anders Trentemøller, Andrew Weatherall and Lulu Rouge (DJ T.O.M. and Buda).
The fantastic live-video has been recorded at the main stage of the Roskilde festival in summer 2009. Trentemøller was invited to arrange a special show for the biggest European summer festival which led to an extraoerdinary and unique performance which remains unforgotten by “50.000 people floating 10 cm above the ground”. The show featured Trentemøller DJing as well as performing tracks from his debut album “The Last Resort” as well as the new album “Into The Great Wide Yonder” in a full band setup.
Directed by Katja Boom Philip the show included an outstanding light show and gorgeous dance performances in spectacular costumes by designer Henrik Vibskov.

The return of Plastikman
Long before Richie Hawtin became a renown DJ and mastermind of the Minus label, he was best known for being Plastikman. 2010 saw Richie Hawtin’s return as Plastikman with a live show reworking original Plastikman material from 1993 to 2003. Following on from the success of this show, Minus now presents “Arkives” – the definitive history of Plastikman in a limited edition box set.
“Arkives” will be a strictly limited, made-to-order edition. This means that only as many copies will be manufactured as have been pre-ordered.
Included are remastered versions of all six previously released Plastikman albums and a trove of rarities, unreleased sessions and new material such as classic and hard-to-find remixes for other artists, including La Funk Mob, System 7, New Order, Depeche Mode, Hardfloor, and even an unreleased remix of his own Robotman project. Next to this you may also expect all-new remixes specially commissioned for the project, in which Hawtin’s influences and heroes rework Plastikman’s back catalog. Reaching far beyond the world of techno, the disc features luminaries such as Vince Clarke, Cliff Martinez, François Kevorkian, Moby, Chris & Cosey, Severed Heads, Flood, and Mute’s Daniel Miller & Gareth Jones.
Two CDs will contain previously unreleased material. One features the never-before heard, complete recording session from which “Spastik” emerged, along with an unreleased John Peel in-studio live session from 1994.
The DVD “Optik” is a DVD of classic and rare Plastikman videos plus previously unreleased footage of Plastikman live at Glastonbury, 1995 and Plastikman live at Mutek, Montreal, 2003.
And the cherry on the cake is a digital download code redeemable at plastikman.com, which will unlock additional material not included on the CDs (or other Arkives editions), insuring that each collector receives the most complete Plastikman Arkives to date. Ain’t that sweet?
It will be released in 4 different formats:
- Reference (11-disc CD/DVD/book edition)
- Analog (6 records on 180-gram vinyl in a deluxe box, with poster)
- Digital (digital download version)
- Komplete (including all CDs, vinyl, book, DVD, and bonus digital downloads)

The video is one of twelve music videos produced for Clear Notice’s debut release, Enter Calico – available on Bandcamp, Amazon and iTunes as an audio album and iPad App. More videos from the release are available on the Clear Notice Vimeo channel.
About the music, Stretta (Matthew Davidson) notes:
I like to think that if you’re going to create something within the field of electronic music, you should offer an experience that can’t be achieved though other means.
For example, Pixar makes movies about talking fish, robots in love, and a rat that cooks in a restaurant kitchen. Arguably, they’re telling stories that almost have to be realized with computer animation.
So, this is music that, I believe, has to be realized synthetically.
