TONIGHT THE FALL PLAYS BERLIN…AS THEY HAVE DONE MANY TIMES, BUT THIS TIME IT WILL BE SPECIAL….

This guy comes up to me and says:” Oh The Fall, I have seen them once, and they were really awful, the singer was drunk and moody…”

I turn around and walk out of the conversation.

If you’re looking for entertainment, like all these blog and myspace friendly bands, do NOT go.

Stay with the herd, you fucking cow(ard)….there is an electric fence around that little field you’re living in…the moment you step outside, you get shocked…so keep your tunnel vision…run with your herd…don’t go…

I saw The Fall in front of 150 people and they were amazing, then I saw them play a sold out show adn they were so insanely bad, it was important to see…but you know what…that’s the point…you have to make up your own mind about them and about yourself constantly. Nobody will tell you to like them…

And one thing is always certain…the simple fact that Mark E Smith is still touring and releasing records, proves how great and genius he is. Take all your MGMT mp3s and Owlcity ringtones and come back to me in 20 years…I bet you won’t remember even having them.

back then….

click here to watch

…and now….

click here to watch more

and if you haven’t got thee seven inch of all times yet…The Monks & Alec Empire & The Fall

click here and get one of the last copies (if you are one of those guys who discovered Silver Apples via Simian Mobile Disco you maybe should NOT get it because you lower the value of this product. The value of cool)

Uncertainty is what music is all about!

I’ll see you there…… ……..

Alec Empire is spinning Acidhouse and old Force Inc records tonight in Berlin! we know this is a rare thing these days…

here is the info (in German, but you’ll manage) from the press sheet from the promoter:

ALEC EMPIRE (dhr) – acid house dj set
SVEN WEISEMANN (mojuba) – techno dj set
ACID MARIA (abe duque rec, killekill) – dj
DJ FLUSH (killekill) – dj
STYPE (killekill) – dj

Der Megahorst, der Megahorst, der kommt mit seiner dicken Worst.
Das wird DIE gro?e KILLEKILL-Abschlusssause f?r dieses Jahr.

Ein ACID HOUSE SET von ALEC EMPIRE!!!!!!
?Geht?s noch?? w?rde Roman Fl?gel vielleicht fragen. Wir w?rden sagen: ?Ja!?
ALEC EMPIRE ist ein Megastar des Industrial, Berlins Anti-hero, Erfinder des Breakcore, eine Legende auf seinem Gebiet.
Dass er aber – wie jeder gute K?nstler – musikalisch nicht einseitig ist, wird er an diesem Abend beweisen: Und zwar, indem er seine ganz pers?nlichen Acid House-Perlen aus seinem Plattenschrank holt.
Damit das nicht zu kuschelig wird, haben wir den neuen Deepness-Superstar SVEN WEISEMANN im Gegenzug auf ein Techno-Set festgenagelt.
Mit sowas hat er in der Berghain Kantine schon einmal alles weggeblasen, was man nur wegblasen kann, mit seinen unwahrscheinlich schnellen Fingern.
Da bleibt kein Auge trocken.
Wunderkind ACID MARIA, der Neuzugang im Killekill-Resident-Stall, wird den Abend weiter veredeln und dass dann mit DJ FLUSH und STYPE noch zwei der Residents mit am Start sind, ist eigentlich auch kein Wunder?

Also, aufgemacht, kurz vor Weihnachten noch einmal richtig durch den Tisch getreten!

watch exclusive trailer here!

Sonic terrorist, Alec Empire, returns for another blistering series of live dates here in the UK that looks set to blow the roof off every venue it invades across the country.

?1000 Eyes? is the new download only single taken off the animated short film, ?The Golden Foretaste of Heaven?. After the critical acclaim of his mini album, ?Shivers?, earlier this year, Alec channelled his dark energy into creating a brooding, mesmerising soundtrack to the hotly tipped film by Austrian rising star, Richard Wilhelmer.

Fresh off supporting Trent Reznor and Nine Inch Nails on their European leg of the tour, Alec will bring his awesome live setup to the UK showcasing material from a career spanning almost two decades. Always a knack for spotting new talent, Alec has collaborated with Robbie Furze from The Big Pink on the track, ?If You Live or Die? off his last album and has produced and written Patrick Wolf?s lead single, ?Vultures?.

Wolf also appeared on stage with Empire during his sold out London date at The Underworld earlier this year and looks certain to join up with his partner in crime for the Islington Academy show in London on November 19.

Having recently remixed IAMX, ex Sneaker Pimp, Chris Corner?s new single ?Terrified?, the hardest working Berliner in music?s next project is a team up with Major Lazer and Saul Williams for some new tracks and a remix special with Dillinger Escape Plan later this year.

As a special treat for UK fans, Alec has roped in up & coming alt techno-core outfit, Motor, who are currently on tour with D?p?che Mode as support for his UK dates.

Alec has once again reinvented himself and you can witness the Empire effect first hand this autumn as Nic Endo and him take to a stage near you.

we are partying in Amsterdam tonight. having a great time. not these dumb drink yourself stupid so you forget times, it’s more like we met so many supporters again, people who really care…and after months of recording for films this just feels great!

on the way to here I read this German article about how “young people” don’t care about politics anymore and that whole blah. Well, I have seen the exact difference …and not only at our shows, the G20 rallys, Mayday…Heard “Chaostage” Berlin Premiere was sold out in minutes.

To the fifty year olds who try to analyze what’s happening: the new codes are different, they are more complex. A t-shirt doesn’t mean much if you don’t know the person who wears it. We are in disguise.

Will post more soon.

Never give up the fight,

Freitag der 13., der perfekte Anlass f?r ein au?ergew?hnliches Spektakel. Nach der letzten Jessie Evans Performance im ausverkauften SO36 im letzten Herbst setzen wir dem noch eine Krone auf. Here comes the brainchild of NEON RAIDERS and Hypnotease!

NEON RAIDERS pr?sentiert Jessie Evans, mit gerade in Mexiko fertig gestelltem neuen Album unter dem Arm, zusammen mit Toby Dammit und als very special guest den legend?ren Budgie auf der B?hne des SO36, der ?brigens am neuen Album nicht unma?geblich beteiligt war. Jessie Evans war Gr?nderin und Frontfrau der grandiosen Deathrock/Electro-Formation The Vanishing und formte au?erdem zusammen mit Bettina K?ster das Projekt Autnervous. Toby Dammit war langj?hriges Mitglied bei Iggy Pop und den Swans, um nur einige seiner Kollaborationen zu nennen. Und Budgie …. muss ich es wirklich erw?hnen?? Nur der Vollst?ndigkeit halber und unter lautem Protest: Nat?rlich Siouxsie & the Banshees und The Creatures. Eine einmalige Konstellation dreier kongenialer Musiker zusammen auf einer B?hne.

Im Anschluss werden Khan, Gloria Viagra & Nikolaj Tange Lange den Sound spielen, den sie als passend f?r dieses Event betrachten. Es erwartet Euch eine wahrlich wilde und einzigartige Nacht, die es in dieser Form sicher nicht so bald wieder geben wird.

Stay tuned for more of the wicked…

Tresor pr?sentiert in Zusammenarbeit mit Alec Empire, Think Sync und Shooting People:

“TRANSDUCERS!”

BERLIN – LONDON – WIEN

Europ?ischer Film trifft auf Elektronische Musik
Am 12. Februar im Tresor! (German version)

Musikproduzent Alec Empire stellt in Zusammenarbeit mit Tresor und der Britischen Firma Think Sync und Shooting People ein besonderes Programm zusammen, um den Europ?ischen Film zu feiern!

Genauer gesagt geht es nicht nur darum, spannende neue Filme zu pr?sentieren, die sich jenseits der ?blichen Fahrbahn bewegen und dennoch Pop Appeal besitzen, sondern auch die elektronische Musikszene mit der Filmbranche zusammenzubringen.

Alec Empire arbeitet parallel zum ?blichen DJ/Produzenten “Tagesgesch?ft” mit Film.
(Eine Auswahl ist bei Wikipedia zu finden http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alec_Empire )
In den letzten Monaten schrieb er die Soundtracks f?r 3 spannende Projekte:

“The Golden Foretaste of Heaven”: Der ?sterreichische Regisseur Richard Wilhelmer scharte Schauspieler der jungen Generation (Robert Stadlober und Friederike Kempter in den Hauptrollen) f?r einen Animation Sci-Fi (,welcher nat?rlich in einem fiktiven Berlin der Zukunft spielt: Der Klimawandel hat die einst gr?nste Stadt Europa’s zur Plattenbaumetropole in mitten einer W?ste gemacht. Eine wundervolle Parodie auf den g?ngigen Hollywoodaufgu?.) um sich. Im Tresor findet die offizielle Premieren Party mit Screening statt.

“Phantomanie”: Regisseur Miron Zownir gelang es den unberechenbaren Kultdarsteller Bruno S, der “Kaspar Hauser” aus Werner Herzog’s Filmen, nach 30 Jahren das erste Mal vor die Kamera zu bekommen!

(link zu aktuellen New York Times Artikel ?ber Bruno S. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/25/arts/design/25abroad.html?_r=1)

Dabei ist einer der aussergew?hnlichsten Filme gelungen, die das deutsche Kino so lange vermisst hat! Schauspieler wie George Nickel, Vivien Bullert, Natalia Avelon und Geno Lechner steigen in die Rollen bizarrer Figuren, die sich in der “selbstgezimmerten H?lle der Reichen” voller Paranoia ihre eigene Wirklichkeit stricken. Die Russenmafia, verr?ckte Sektenf?hrer, Drogen und Waffendealer, alles ist dabei. Zownir schafft es ein Berlin einzufangen, welches Kurzaufenhalt-Regisseure oft verpassen. Gro?artiges und wahnsinniges Autorenkino! Und am 12. Februar wird es im Tresor mit der offiziellen Premieren Party mit Screening und allem drum und dran gefeiert!

“Chaostage”, ein Film von Regisseur Tarek Ehlail, bei dem unter anderem deutsche Gr??en wie Helge Schneider, Stipe Erceg, Claude Oliver Rudolph, Martin Semmelrogge, Henriette M?ller und Ralf Richter mitspielen. Der Film sorgte seid seiner Vorpremiere vor allem in der Boulevard Presse f?r gro?es Aufsehen, da er kontrovers mit der Geschichte der Chaostage in Hannover umgeht. Bevor der Film im Fr?hling ins Kino kommt, werden Teaser, Trailer und sehr unterhaltsames Material der Deutsch Stars w?hrend der Dreharbeiten gezeigt.

Ausserdem: Die Londoner Firma Think Sync , die auch eng mit Empire und dem Raindance Festival verkn?pft ist, stellt ein spannendes Programm aus Kurzfilmen zusammen. Zum gr??ten Teil ungesehenes, teilweise die Gewinner des j?hrlichen Think Sync Wettbewerbs, der jeden Sommer in London stattfindet, in dessen Jury unter anderem Fifth Element Regisseur Iain Smith und weitere Gr??en des Britischen Films sitzen.

HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR!

While music journalists in Germany are wondering what happened to pop music (yes, we said it years ago. In a globalized economy national pop music is becoming less relevant every year. Music , after all, is not that different to the rest of the economy.) , we continue our path into the future.

Just got back from Portugal, crazy New Years Eve rave with 2000+ kids going mental (we know this term is totally British and a taboo term in modern Indie music, that’s why it has to be used again from now on. Creds to Garagem to make it happen!). Hardcore, hardcore hardcore. Drug music, dangerous and without any context to what we used to call western pop music.

People are angry, that’s why.

Gone is the decade of whiny upper class kids who pay their way into the music scene (because nobody else can afford it any longer). People feel and know that middle and working class have been pushed down by the super rich over the past decade, and now the dream of the rising working class rock’n'roll band has been lost…maybe forever.

(Remember, mostly, these images were marketing campaigns to sell a “product” to us. “These guys are like you, now go buy it.” We were never into buying music that reminds us of our neighbors…why? Because we hate them as much as they hate us.)

Now is the time for a new underground to emerge. NOW!

We want music which is exciting, thrilling, passionate, dangerous and unpredictable. The minds of the new generation are open and ready for change. It won’t happen in one day, but the door is open and it will stay open… for a while.

Those who sit back, those who are passive and expect corporations to deliver everything to them, will be left behind.

The new listener is active, is searching the internet for new music, the new listener is questioning any written information about music (yes, you, you journalists who have become the little finger of the corporates. You lost your integrity, once lost, no way to get it back…that’s part of the game.), the new listener is making up his/her own mind, creating his/her own taste. The new listener is thinking, because knowledge and ideas are gold in this era.

The old way of capitalism has failed. Even many conservatives are waking up now. In Paris we have seen more burning cars on New Years Eve than ever before.

We don’t need guns, our weapon is the mind…and we are ready to riot at any time.

I don’t need to say that our solidarity is with those who supported, lost and loved Alexandros Grigoropoulos.
(I didn’t want to say anything right away, because too many bands try to sell something on the back of those tragedies. And I hate that. But we received so many emails asking where we stand, I wanted to get it out. This is where we stand!)

The super rich are not paying taxes, why does the police protect them? They should protect the people. Us.

In 2008 we started and finished many new things : New music, films scores and more.

Thank you all for your ongoing loyalty and support!

In 2009 many of the projects we were working on are being released and premiered.

In a minute I’ll give you an update on shows and live events that we’ll do over the coming months, but 3 concerts need to be mentioned now:
Alec Empire is playing 3 exclusive shows in Great Britain. London , Manchester and Glasgow.

Alec and his band (yes, including Nic Endo) will play material from following albums: Generation Star Wars, The Destroyer, Miss Black America, Intelligence & Sacrifice, Futurist, Atari Teenage Riot (plus special guests!), The Golden Foretaste of Heaven and present new songs from the upcoming album to be released later this year.

As you might know, the shows are happening around Alec’s birthday (2nd of May) and the anniversary of ATR’s legendary show on May 1st 1999

This will be a huge party and ticket sales are super limited.

01.05.2009 London (GB) – The Underworld (doors 7pm) tickets available through www.flagpromotions.com & www.ticketweb.co.uk

THE GLOVES ARE OFF! THE BUBBLE HAS BURST!

Bass Terror 2xCD is available as CD only release next week (January 5th).
please note: only 3 copies of limited edition package left. (thanks for all your emails asking to repress, but we feel that the idea of a limited collectors release is that it stays limited, even if there is more demand. It would be unfair for those who supported the release so far.)
