Lewis Black (wikipedia)
t person the monkey touches, that is the new president." He is also quoted as saying "what is the difference between a Democrat and a Republican? A Democrat blows, and a Republican sucks" and "the only thing dumber than a Democrat or a Republican is when these two pricks work together." He has also stated that the way in which bipartisanship works is that "A Republican stands up and says, 'I got a really bad idea!' and then a Democrat stands up and says, '...and I can make it shittier!'"

RIAA does funny and intelligent mash-up's. I've listened with glee to the airing of some of the tunes on WFMU. And I would like to point out Dont Give Paper Mache (mp3) as one of the many highlights.

My first contact with these two artists was through the production "Deutsche Krieger" [German Warriors]. A CD cover with photos of Hitler, Kaiser Wilhelm and Ulrike Meinhof - well, I just HAD to buy it. Miss Meinhof's voice over 70s disco-beats, does it get any better? The last remaining member of the R.A.F (Rote Armee Fraktion - Baader Meinhof) still in prison (Brigitte Mohnhaupt) will be released the 27th of March this year. You can listen to a NPR radio program about R.A.F here (link). But I digress...
It received several prizes, not at least for being a bold attempt to make entertainment out of the most sinister theme you can find; real audio - real death... Might be sickening to many people, it was at least to me!
Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948)
On hearing Hausmann's sound poem "fmsbw"in 1921, he immediately recognized the great potential of Sound Poetry. With great logic and concentration, he built up a totally abstract piece, "Sonata in Urläten." Over the years, the Sonata grew in both size and variations, and realizing that some phonetic notation for the Sonata was essential if it was not to die with him, he finally published his notations as the last number of his Merz magazine in 1932.A story is told, but untrue, that he attempted to join the network of Dada artists, only to be rejected by the leader of the Berlin movement, Richard Huelsenbeck, on the premise that Schwitters was "too bourgeois" for Dada. A 2005 exposition on Dada at the Centre Georges Pompidou further acknowledged Schwitters as a member of the larger movement by devoting an entire section to the exhibition of some of his work (Ramade 2005).
Die Schwindlinge's version "Kurt Schwitters: What A Beauty/Die Ursonate/Und Andere Lautgedichte" can be found here (megaupload) Thanks to the excellent blog My Wife Of Sennacherib Is Radiosick Queen. Go there if you're into the avant garde, and like "nurse with wound", "whitehouse", "sun city girls", "merzbow" etc...
Kurt Schwitters’ “Ursonate,” written between 1922 and 1932 was the greatest sound poem of the 20th century. Below the fold, you can find 9 versions of it by sound artists from around the world. Schwitters was primarily known for his Dadaist collages and visual art works, but some feel that the “Ursonate” is the most important and significantly influential work he made. His own legendary recording of his work was lost for years. It finally turned up in an attic in Holland the late ‘80s.

Up for auction (ebay-link) for the first time, the actual window and frame from the shooter’s nest on the 6th floor of the Dallas Texas School Book Depository where Lee Harvey Oswald fired off those fatal shots that took the life of our 35th President of the United States - John F.

The source for a thousand sound effects used in radio, snippets in-betweenies, and for general amusements. Snowflakes are dancing contains some of the most prominent renditions of classical music. It is funny, innovative, moogie and did receive great reviews when it was released in 1974. Using a mountain of Moog's finest technology, Tomita turns the familiar impressionist melodies into a futuristic world, with synthesisers and alien voices aplenty. Even people who didn't like synthesizer-music thought this one was an exception. It truly is a gem, and probably the best of Tomita's vast production.
