more info;

Cerebro is the result of the meeting between Nathalie Blanc, geograph-poet andSemoNO!LinA/Amaury Bourget, musician. During 2008/09, they worked together and composed 3 pieces with the texts written and read by Nathalie Blanc.
Acrobatic science fiction, this text tempts to cavort in limbo of a little bit atmospheric reflection, but which try to exhaust the detail of what is expressed here exactly, that is to say the future, our future…
These pieces are written to be live played, what the duet will make in particular for the Poetry international biennial event in Val-de-Marne, in 2009.
As suggested by JetFM, the project has been “updated” in a version which becomes trilingual (French, Portuguese, English) and accomodated musically.

more info;

Out come the wolves is the second sound piece of Nicolas Perret and Cédric Anglaret’s project The four seasons of Paanjärvi in which, since 2009, they focus on the soundscape of the small russian village of Paanajärvi. Isolated in the thick primary forest of oriental Karelia, Paanajärvi has somehow fallen out of the time. Its inhabitants, the last custodians of the disappearing Karelian culture, live a tough life that is strongly bond to the nature surrounding them.

Winters are harsh in Paanajärvi. At this latitude, the sun doesn’t show much and temperatures remain way below freezing for many months. As winter progresses food gets rare for the wolves. Out of the forest they approach the village at night to attack dogs, that the villagers try to protect by all means. As long as dogs are barking the wolves are still far; once they are silent they are nearby. In the winter of 2012, 23 dogs were eaten by the wolves in Paanajärvi.

Following Out come the wolves, a 6 minutes addition sheds light on the Man who eats dogs.

The four seasons of Paanjärvi is supported by SCAM, Défi Jeune, the Juminkeko Foundation and Radio Grenouille.

In 2007 Nicolas Perret and Cédric Anglaret have joined their practice of sound, documentary and music in a common project of collection, creation and diffusion. Since they work under the name La danse de l’ours. www.ladansedelours.blogspot.com

DR KLANGENDUM IS COMING!!!!!!!

Er ging iets mis bij de Concertzender vorige week! Vandaar dat de eerste aflevering van Dr Klangendum vandaag -9 juli- wordt uitgezonden.

 Eerste aflevering Dr Klangendum, woensdag 9 juli 00.00 uur, Concertzender

Dr klangendum 1 / 9 juli 2013 Dr Klangendum

Dr Klangendum is een programma over maar voornamelijk vol radiofonie, geluidskunst en andere audio-non-visuele misverstanden en vondsten (bedoelt U Fondsen ?). De makers zijn Henk Klangendum Bakker en Lukas Klangendum Simonis, voormalige werknemers- en gevers van de WORM Studio te Rotterdam waar ze radio-programma's als Radio Worm en de Hørspil Reeks (via VPRO's Cafe Sonore, nu genomineerd voor de guillotine) de wereld instuurden, en de voormalige CEM studio beheerden. De studio bestaat nog steeds, de activiteiten bestaan ook nog steeds (behalve genoemde ook nog het organiseren van residencies, workshops en eductatie-projecten, het doen van podium producties en het organiseren van experimentele & improv concerten) maar de Worm Studio heeft zich inmiddels afgescheiden van WORM en heet nu Stichting Klangendum… De samenwerking met WORM gaat wel door in de vorm van gezamenlijke producties en ook de locatie van de studio blijft (voorlopig?) dezelfde; in het WORM gebouw.

Dr Klangendum zal geen sleur van een radioprogramma worden… We kunnen niet zo goed tegen de regelmaat van een vast format en iedere keer weer de lijst afwerken… Een vorm van vastigheid is echter onvermijdelijk en die zal bestaan aan een keur van vaste medewerkers (oa. Adam Bohman, Vincent Denieul, Sara Pinheiro, eva.) en een rubriek in samenwerking met het Radia network (zie; radia.fm) waarin iedere week een kunstradio productie zal worden gepresenteerd door een van de leden (de producties duren steevast 28 minuten).  Verder staan er een aantal specials op stapel over geluidskunstenaars die we goed vinden, zullen er regelmatig radiofonische hoorspelen worden vertoond (een voortzetting van onze Hørspil Reeks, die nog tot as. januari bij cafe sonore loopt), hebben we een 'perverse animals' reeks in de maak en zijn er ook vergevorderde plannen voor radiofonische (weer dat woord, zie het als een eufemisme voor 'psychedelisch in onbegrepen zin') documentaires.

Reacties worden op prijs gesteld, bijdrages ook. Email ons; Klangendum@xs4all.nl

Extra Info;
 Ultrasonic city by Wendy Van Wynsberghe (Radio Panik)
“What do you hear in the city? What sounds are only perceptible in the ultrasonic realm, where bats and crickets communicate? Sounds which are so high, our human ears cannot perceive them. This acoustic world becomes audible in Ultrasonic City and they get their place in the sounds of the city and the world.
The urban sound world is quite dense. By extracting the ultrasound I wanted to reveal a sonic universe or even add another layer to the field recordings. When you hear only the ultrasonic layer of the city, you hear a place devoid of human voices. They simply do not reach that high. Some very quiet sounds get enhanced, such as rubbing your fingers together, frottements in French. In a park at sunset you hear the foraging bats, whilst at the same time, our human ears only register ducks, planes and other humans. A swimming pool gets reduced to splashes, you do not hear the children shriek nor play. Plastic, metal, water all produce ultrasounds.
With the help of ACSR, I was able to record the same place in the city ultrasonically and with high quality “normal” microphones. This revealing/unravelling/hiding of layers of sound I want to present in this documentary.

Harry Taylor in WORM Studio

Harry Taylor was in the studio in january. I think he had a good time. More about that later. On one of his last days in Rotterdam Yuri Landman (who had invited him), Arnold van der Velde & Lukas Simonis came together in the studio with him to make this track. Mix is by Harry. (lukas also promised to put a mix together, if he does, we'll post it here as well).

here are some photo's of the cooperation.  (with the red sweater; lukas, on the ground ; yuri, watching the troops; harry, photo\s by arnold)

Bruiloftslied radioplay on WIRE website

One of the plays we curated a few years ago can be heard on the WIRE website, it goes along with an article in the paper edition about the makers; Alisdair McGregor and Howard Jacques. McGregor and Jacques are featured in an article by Zakia Uddin in The Wire 346. IT'S HERE.

Pedro was the first artist that worked in the (then) new worm studio, a year ago. He gave us this track (and we finally found it back so posted it).

Kim Fowley & Worm All-Stars Band

On the 19th of april The WORM ALL-STARS BAND backed up Kim Fowley. In this incarnation the band was; Peter Graute, Wim Ver A, Lukas Simonis on guitars, Florian Veenhuis on bass and Hajo Doorn on drums. We practised an hour or so in the afternoon with Kim and his Cane (and his dominatrix Snow Mercy) and played quite a long set, only disturbed by the fire-alarm going off (at the end of the song 'My pussy’s on fire!').

Peter Bruyn did a nice interview on that occasion and there's also some stuff about the music. SEE HERE . (it's in dutch).

RADIO RADIO with Truus De Groot, The Tobacconists en Daniela de Paulis

A live event organised by the WORM STUDIO@WORM, april 5th...


The event was broadcasted as live streaming audio, and will, in an edited form be broadcasted again on Radio 6,  VPRO's cafe Sonore. The two tape compositions that were played were by KAMAMA and The Future Sounds Of Folk.

text about the event; (in dutch, sorry)
WormRadio/radioWORM is afkomstig van het live-gebeuren en de eeuwigdurende zoektocht naar een podium voor onalledaagsheid. Zowel op radiofonisch/geluids gebied als op documentair/menselijk gebied. In het kort gezegd; eind jaren 90 inspireerde de electronische revolutie in de rock & experimentele muziek ons tot de gedachte dat het live optreden eigenlijk net zo goed als radio gebracht kon worden (omdat het 'performance'element ten enemale ontbrak), tegenwoordig inspireert de 'content is overal'-revolutie ons tot de gedachte dat we juist moeten inzetten op een 'schaarste' revival. Als de podcasten en streaming content voor het oprapen ligt is het misschien zaak van de radio weer een 'hot medium' te maken bijvoorbeeld door middel van onherhaalbaarheid zoals ons RADIO RADIO evenement van vanavond. Hoewel het geheel ook live gestreamed wordt en dus eigenlijk als 'radio' uitzending (met beeld`) over de gehele wereld te volgen is.
Ons programma bestaat uit interviews met alle betrokken, twee Tape Composities die in opdracht van WORM zijn gemaakt, een live-hoorspel, een Radio Performance en tot besluit een muziekoptreden.

Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck “At End of Language – Performance Workshop” and Studio Residency

We invited Rudolf Eb.er aka Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck (& imported him from japan, where he lives) to do a performance workshop @ WORM. Why? Because we like his audio & visible works and we think he can add a flavour (to...?) that is not available HERE at the moment.
He's currently working in the studio on a radioplay, later to be released on the WORM Horspil Series.

You got  a minute? Listen here to the soundpiece wich was recorded live at his workshop end performance. Made by  Rudolf Eb.er, Robert Kroos and LG Simonis

picture&sound-update on radiowormstudio projects WORM AT STRP 2010 and STUDIO-SKVR WORKSHOP. RADIOWORM IN VIENNA and Z6 TRIPPLE LAUNCH PARTY

Rotterdam RecordLabel z6 released 3 issues this year: By Huib emmer, LG Simonis/Anne Laberge and the Static Tics.
Here are some picts off the release party at roodkapje

The WORM radio/studiocrew were busy traveling, doing live horspil in linz, brno and vienna (at the MQ and ORF radio). we were especially happy to find out that alan ginsberg is still alive. (in more then 1 entity). Here's the place we played in BRNO, Skena Louka...

 

And the next morning, David Subik (who organised the concert) and Josef Cseres (who attained) looked like this...

And this was in Vienna, our performance at Museumsquartier...

The final version of the radioplay was done at ORF Kunstradio and broadcasted the same evening. It was very well (live-)mixed by the ORF technicians. And of course, we stupid peasants were flabbergasted by the luxuries of the ORF Radioplay Studio. Except the usual stuff (great mics, 5.1 surround, very expensive looking HD recording gear) the pebbles path was out favorite...

And this is us, looking very relaxed....

A week later, the whole WORM crew to strp fest in eindhoven, where we build a song poem studio...
We made a Radia Network Program about it.  Here's the explanation....


THE WORM RADIO SONG POEM RADIA SHOW DECEMBER 2010

This show consists of a number of songs that were made by the Radio WORM Song Poem Crew at the STRP Festival in Eindhoven (november 2010). The theme was '80ties cassette culture' and the idea was that the audience could choose a genre from a menu, write a text, pay 3 euro's, and then the  Radio WORM Song Poem Crew would make the song with 'original' 80ties gear (the most advanced device being a 4track cassette machine), hence the 'vintage' sound qualities of the pieces. The song was delivered within a short time (5 - 30 minutes) to the client on cassette tape. The available genres on the menu were; Depressing Lo Fi Noise, Boring Art Shit, Early Happy Commodore, Gay Budget Beats, Industrial SM Love Songs, Echoïstic Melancholia Dub, Fucked Up Cassette Hardcore and Incredible Cheap Casio-Pop. There were 19 songs made in a few hours, the best of them you'll find here. Text subjects vary from ode's to leaving colleague's, the impossibilities of having a love affair where one lives in Eindhoven and the other in Amsterdam, Statements about Radio Art, a Monty Cantsin Neoist Song and lots of boring and horrible poetry. Enjoy!

People involved; Lukas Simonis, Henk Bakker, Robert Kroos, Merijn van Ham, Joost Bult, Alexander van Straten, Annemarie Nijhof, Rik Den Dood

Also performed was a testrun of HISS the tapemusical, with live music by: Wouter van Veldhoven - Aki Onda - Tapetronic - Zombies Under Stress
HISSSSS….. - a Cassette Docu Musical Revue
with a.o.: Frans De Waard and many guests. Soundclips of the preformances later to come.
