Richard Youngs - New Angloid Sound (LP, Forced Exposure, No Fans Records FE-035, NFR 03, 1992)

More music by Richard Youngs of whom we posted music before. I realized I didn't post any vinyl in some time!

Recycled Body Programm - Themes Of Scenes (tape, Egmondse Klank Op-sessie, 1989)

More music by Bart Hanselaar, whom we also met with Black Death, The Hess Group and Royal Flush, which were all variations on the theme of noise, but here as Recycled Body Programm (he was also on the 'Statue Series' four cassette compilation with some rather ambient music) returns to the sampler and plays around with samples of classical orchestral music and reminded me a bit of a primitive late 80s Laibach. Nice enough. download

De Fabriek - Future Print (tape, De Fabriek Records & Tapes 9, 198?)

Relatively short pieces on this cassette.

Index Metrics (tape, Terminal Tapes 002, 1981)

Perhaps the shortest tape on this blog, as it lasts 10 minutes only. It is an one-off project by one Frank de Munnik and one Herbert Capelle, who were a member of Planung. This band from Enschede had a flexi disc with Dutch magazine Vinyl and I added their side of the flexi to this post along with the article (in Dutch) about them. This cassette has a solo piece by each. "Confused Reaction" is by Frank and 'Fields Of Force' is by Herbert. I know Planung released some more cassettes, which I never heard, but I would be keen to hear them. Planung is more of a band, no wave like, with influences of Cabaret Voltaire and A Certain Ratio, whereas the tape is more electronic.

Odal & Uriniglirimirnaglu - Meets SS Bla! (tape, Nihilistic Recordings, 198?)

Ok, yes, I did post 'Interferon' indeed last month, so instead this one. No information on the cover, and I have no idea who Uriniglirimirnaglu is...

O.R.D.U.C. - Pre Pink & Purple (tape, New Bulwark Records & Tapes, 1981)

In the early days of this blog I put up 'Pink & Purple' by O.R.D.U.C., today, towards the end of this blog, its time for the cassette version of that LP, which preceded the LP. I wrote back then:

"The name stands for One-O-Seventh Royal Dutch Underground Company and was led by Nicko Selen, who ran also the label, and later on IF Records (more of those records later), along with friends who played guitars and drums. Highly naive electronic music, partly inspired by krautrock. Released in an edition of 500 copies in five different coloured vinyls, each 100 copies. I think I have a lathe cut somewhere too, if I find it I will post this one too, one day. The band apparently still exist, they even have a myspace page."

Since then I have been in contact with Nico Selen every now and then and posted some stuff from his label. This cassette was a taster for the LP, and it has a coupon which you could send in to say which songs should make it to LP. I think I got the tape after the LP release, so I still have the coupon.

The Only Good Drummer Is A Dead Drummer (tape, Ruziek 05, 1987)

Things may not get obscurer than this. What you see here is the entire cover, but apparentely (according De Nederlandse Cassette Catalogus) it is released by Ruziek, a label from Utrecht, run by J.P. Kuil, who was the main man behind Vacuum. The label partly released punk and partly experimental music. This tape, according to the Catalogus, credited to El Ctrosan, belongs to the latter category. I guess its not surprise, when I say, 'and that's all I know'.
