More details at www.no-signal.net. --------------------- ARTIST BIOS WE'RE BREAKING UP (TWOTHOUSANDAND / ANTIOPIC) (US / UK) (LIVE) : shortwave electronica, snap, crackle & pop We're Breaking Up is Michael Rodgers, multi-instrumentalist, free improviser and (with Anthony Guerra) co-founder of the outstanding London-Sydney label TwoThousandAnd. Living in London since 2000, he's now a fixture of the electronica / impro / microsound scene, with TwoThousandAnd really on a roll at the moment. Michael brings a sense of urgency and openness to his own musical projects - collaborators include Paul Hood, Anthony Guerra, Pedro Lourenço and Manuel Mota. Much of his music reflects personal ideas of distance, human relationships, density, and things that are invisible. Michael plays out regularly in London and has also performed in Portugal, Germany, Austria and the USA. 'Restless, shifting drones . a really epic feel. Excellent' SMALLFISH 'Takes the improvisation of electronics to a barren wasteland, it glows and flashes and fizzes to the end' IGLOOMAG 'Yet another fine, fine release from this superb label. Check it out' BAGATELLEN --------------------- CHEAPMACHINES (KABUKIKORE, NID NOD) (UK) (LIVE) : warm noise, field recordings, tape loops Cheapmachines has been in existence since 1997, acting at the interface between noise electronics, generative software, field recordings, tape music and drones.
