We have two draws in a filing cabinet dedicated to the vast and obsessively collected Miss Pain archive.<br />
<br />
Or at least we did until recently.<br />
<br />
Verity and I have spent 2 weekends systematically combing through and slimming down the massive archive to a single box. So many memories and SO MUCH PAPER!<br />
<br />
This is what we discarded. If any crazy people out there want copies of anything they see in these photos, speak up for they have a date with the recycling depot in 2 weeks.<br />

The master tapes have been dispatched to our producer, Mr Woodie Taylor, who has duly flung them into his space-echo chamber at Milou Studios.<br />
<br />
They will be pinging around in there for some time until they have been dusted with a breath-taking amount of reverb and some gritty vitality.<br />

He told us all about his Dansette and how he gets out his old gramaphone to play Bing Crosby every Christmas.<br /><br />Somewhere near Seven Dials he asked if we would be doing any singing tonight. The conversation followed something like this:<br />Us: "No, but we do sing." <br />Taxi driver: "Are you in a band then?"<br />Us: "Yes, we're all in a band together"<br />Taxi driver: "You're not in the Miss Pain band, are you?"<br />Us: "Er, yes... we are."<br />Taxi driver: "I thought I recognised you. I gave you a lift once, you gave me one of your demonstration discs."<br />Us: "Blimey, you've got a good memory. Have you still got the record?"<br />Taxi driver: "Yes I have. Very pleasant it was too."<br />Us: "We're not sure if we've ever been described as pleasant before, but glad you liked it."<br /><br />Maybe we'll be the subject of one of those "I had that Miss Pain in my taxi once, you know" stories.<br />Hello Warren, if you're reading.Domhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600432703007613041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15507961.post-39498164944122066752009-11-12T14:48:00.003+00:002009-11-12T14:52:05.411+00:00Press-Stud Vendetta [revisited] - new recording to break the silence...<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; ">greetings Pain-fans, it's been a while (a year this Sunday, in fact).<div><br /></div><div>I have come to break the silence with this news:</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Go to our <a href="http://www.myspace.com/vivamisspain">myspace</a> and look at the myspace music player.

They say nice things too!<br /><br />SINGLE: MISS PAIN Shelf-Location ROM<br />We always knew that Miss Pain had it in them but Shelf-Location ROM’s pop is more polished than the band’s past. The arch-cleverness has taken a backseat to great melodies, a sing along chorus and tight riffing. Anyone looking for electronic craziness are well served by the 8-bit computer style bleepery of MC Fashion’s Kiss Cuddle Torture, the original of which is also chaotic fun.

It went by the name of <i>Trommelmann</i>. It was 4 minutes 36 seconds of martial drums and <i>Psycho</i> strings, with a flash-gun popping in the audience's eyes, all underpinned by the dog-bothering whine of a detuned radio. <div><br /></div><div>At least that's what the audience heard. </div><div><br /></div><div>There was a foreboding deep-bass melody picked out by Sarah on the Jen SX1000, but unfortunately every sound engineer who ever had the (mis)fortune to encounter <i>Herr Trommelmann</i> failed to bring this vital melody to the forefront. The result: the unsuspecting punters had their ears bashed by a relentless 4 and a half-minutes of belligerent clattering drums and not much else. There would be a smattering of polite applause at the end, and a thinned-out crowd as the dry ice lifted.</div><div><br /></div><div>It took us quite some time to realise that this wasn't the best way to win a crowd - we heroically debuted it at our second gig at the Lounge Bar, Worthing on 03 May 2002, and its last recorded airing was at The Freebutt, Brighton on 23 October 2003. And the <i>Trommelmann </i>only lived on when we took to naming our rhythm section, of drums&bass in a metal box, after it.</div><div><br /></div><div>Until now... There has been talk of late in the Miss Pain camp of resurrecting <i>Trommelmann</i> and knocking it into shape. So I powered up the old 8-track and took <i>Herr Trommelmann</i> to task. It emerged re-arranged, still brutal, and a little rough around the edges.</div><div><br /></div><div>We will hopefully be putting Trommelmann on tape in our next recording sessions, but for now, here's a relic from those "early days":</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://www.misspain.sphosting.com/mp3/Miss_Pain-Trommelmann_(live_at_The_Red_Room).mp3">Trommelmann (live! at The Red Room, Brighton, 14 Feb 03)</a></div><div><br /></div><div>MARCH WIDE!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2K3mmsjvO4c/SjtfEQ2SUFI/AAAAAAAAASE/C_B4F8U2MEI/s1600-h/majorette.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 299px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2K3mmsjvO4c/SjtfEQ2SUFI/AAAAAAAAASE/C_B4F8U2MEI/s400/majorette.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348973509279371346" /></a></div><div><br /></div>Domhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600432703007613041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15507961.post-3230321237910658442009-02-23T12:24:00.006+00:002009-02-23T12:44:20.880+00:00Look Mum!

Cancelled !Rubbish news today. <br /><br />The White Noise Electronic Music Festival has had to be cancelled :(<br /><br />here's the official line:<br />"Unfortunately due to the present economic climate, poor pre-sales and an inability to reach a break-even figure calculated by Hendra Holiday Park and due for payment tomorrow October 1st, we have had to take the regrettable decision to cancel the WNF Festival for this year. <br /><br />Please believe us when I say that both parties (WLM) and PH promotions have worked very hard to make this event happen and although we had the monies in place to stage the show itself we did not have the resources available to underwrite the monies required by Hendra by the October 1st deadline. <br /><br />We are in short, very upset, very tired and also I think safe to say very angry that we have not been able to secure the show this year. <br /><br />All monies paid by ticket holders will be returned to them in full. <br /><br />Again, we are very sorry for this cancellation and many thanks for your continued support of the label."<br /><br />Marc Hunter/ label manager.<br /><br />If you need a ticket refund, we suggest you contact them asap via <br /><a href="http://www.whitelabel-music.co.uk">whitelabel-music.co.uk</a><br />or <a href="http://www.myspace.com/whitenoisefest">myspace.com/whitenoisefest</a>Domhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600432703007613041noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15507961.post-23658686859349706882008-09-26T16:36:00.004+01:002008-09-26T16:40:35.915+01:00L'Amour Electronique is FIVE this SaturdayL’Amour Electronique is FIVE this month!
