"DJs Magz Hall and Jim Backhouse have spent four years coaxing live acts onto their You Are Hear Radio show to perform exclusively for the show (a la John Peel, but 100 per cent live in the studio) If you haven't been listening, this is a quick and easy education." Clive Bell The Wire

    Ardisson session
    “Ardisson is none other than the one man beatsmith and breaks maniac, Charles Matthews. A master at getting the audience revved up and ultimately hooked on butt crunching bass and bastard hard sonics, this young producer commands the utmost of respect as he tries to harness as best as he humanely can, the unhinged members of his mechanical family which seem ruthlessly resolute in undermining not only the musical status quo, but, the godforsaken man himself.” Bruce McClure www.myspace.com/ardisson


    Asja Auf Capri session
    The ASJA AUF CAPRI session you are about to hear was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on 28th March 2005. Taking their name from Walter Benjamin’s Latvian lover, Asja Auf Capri wring out a sublime and brittle electronic pop sound from the charred remains of post-punk and the Neue Deutsche Welle underground. www.asjaaufcapri.org

    The Bohman Brothers session
    This session from The Bohman Brothers was originally broadcast live on June 6th 2005 on the You Are Hear Show. Adam and Jonathan Bohman are the creators of a unique and impure experimental music. Traces of Fluxus japery, musique concrete, sound poetry and free improvisation can be detected, yet ultimately the whole is greater and more arcane than the sum of its parts. www.xs4all.nl/~lukas/pagina/bohmans.htm

    Bruno and Michel Are Smiling session
    Bruno & Michel are smiling and Skipperrr played a live session on You Are Hear on Nov 21st 2005. ‘Once we used to be a two headed dog. Our heads then became divided on a dusky pasture beyond the famous Oceanos by a guy who called himself Heracles. He thought that he killed us, but the reality was that we were still alive. Since then we are two separated individuals and therefore we needed two different names.’ Oliver aka BRUNO & MICHEL ARE SMILING & Charlotte aka SKIPPERRR explain the reason for using two artist names… http://bruno-and-michel-are-smiling.com http://www.skipperrr.com/ http://www.adaadat.com

    Carter Tutti session
    Carter Tutti - (Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti) played live in session on November 1st, 2004.

    DJ Scotch Egg session
    This DJ SCOTCH EGG session was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on august 29th 2005. For this session, DJ Scotch Egg especially channeled all the pent-up aggression he had accumulated over the previous month in order to demonstrate, first hand, the grisly side-effects of over-indulgence in processed breadcrumbed snacks. www.adaadat.com

    Electroloft session
    live improvised guitar and electronics.
    Germlin session
    The GERMLIN session you are about to hear was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on July 4th 2005 “Aged just minus eight months Joe Howe (aka Germlin) was entertaining his mother with compositions from inside the womb. As his fingers developed the music became increasingly accomplished. He was born one of triplets, the other two siblings being a normal, healthy sampler and a bouncing 3.2 kilogram modular synthesiser.” www.adaadat.com

    Jean-Herve Peron session
    The Jean-Herve Peron session you are about to hear was first broadcast live on November 7th 2005 on the You Are Hear show.

    Knowledge Of Bugs session
    Bristol based musician, artist and creator of wayward modular synths, electronic toys and circuit bent sonic machines demonstrated his sonic gadgetry and performed for us some very strange pop songs www.bugbrand.co.uk

    Kutchi session download

    Man From Uranus in session
    THE MAN FROM URANUS brought his fantastic electrical music show to the Resonance studio on August 8th 2005, fashioning gloriously perverse space age pop music from an assortment of tape loops, theremin, analogue synthesisers and sonic toys. www.manfromuranus.com

    Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses session
    This Miasma session was first aired on You Are Hear show on Dec 5th 2005. Miasma & the Carousel of Headless Horses are a British instrumental quintet that plays dark, antiquated sounding music encompassing elements of Eastern European folk, avant-rock, broken-down calliope music, and neo-classical film composition. Their music can only be compared to many artists at once: in this case Angelo Badalamenti, Astor Piazzolla, Goblin, Art Bears, Burzum, Tom Waits, Antioch Arrow, King Crimson, Bach and Univers Zero. http://www.headlesshorses.co.uk/main.html

    Miasmos session Miasmos is one of many alter-egos of Brighton based artist Massimo Pilia - sublime glacial, hypnotic kosmische electronics

    Miss Hawaii, Cow'P & Deseptagon in session
    You Are Hear Sessions: MISS HAWAII, COW’P + DESEPTAGON broadcast live 24th October 2005: A three sided soundclash between 19-t records of Tokyo’s most notorious sonic malcontents. Cow’P firing off volleys of askew gameboy dancehall and gabber, Deseptagon exploring the pits of cavernous sub-bass and dub dynamics, with Miss Hawaii leading proceedings towards the blissed-out heights of the electronic pop sublime. www.19-t.com

    Ninki V session
    The Ninki V session you are about to hear was first aired on October 31st 2005 on the You Are Hear show. Ninki V is a lightning force: a one woman band playing theremin, synths, 80’s keyboards, toy instruments and vocals. She regularly duets with a theremin playing skeleton marionette. www.ninki-v.com

    Noblesse Oblige in session
    This session from Noblesse Oblige was first aired on the You Are Hear show on Dec 19th 2005. Noblesse Oblige have been variously described as an “electronic art rock synth duo: Klaus Nomi crossed with Laibach or DAF teutonic disco” (Rough Trade) or “Weimar Germany for the 21st Century Dance Floor” (Tank) http://www.noblesseoblige.co.uk/

    Oddfellows Casino session
    The ODDFELLOWS CASINO session you are about to hear was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on Feb 14th 2004. Oddfellows Casino is the latest incarnation of Brighton-based singer-songwriter David Bramwell. Drawing on elements of psychedelia, acid-folk, electronica and Canterbury jazz-rock (early Caravan, Soft Machine) Oddfellows Casino played an intimate and pastoral set of warmth, melancholy and black humour. www.pickled-egg.co.uk/Oddfellowscasino.htm

    Ommm session
    The OMMM session you are about to hear was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on Nov 15th 2004 “OMMM is the pseudonym used by a reclusive Tibetan guru linked to the ADAADAT label. Rarely seen in public, his devotional performance style and mysterious, shifting rhythms and harmonies have been known to drive worshippers into such a frenzy that they began to eat each other. Raw.” www.adaadat.com

    Ove-NaXx session
    This Ove - Naxx session was first aired live on Magz Hall’s You Are Hear Show on Sept 3rd 2005. Ove-Naxx began his career playing impromptu gigs to passers by on the streets of New York. He soon decided to take things to the next level,playing one gig frozen in a block of ice and another balancing atop a forty-foot wooden pole. His next project is to perform live for forty-four days straight locked inside a glass box in London. What motivates him? Nobody really knows. http://www.accelmuzhik.net/

    Robotobibok session
    You Are Hear Sessions: ROBOTOBIBOK broadcast live on 27th February 2005. Robotobibok (combining the two Polish words for robot and skiver) was formed in 1998 in Wroclaw, Poland. From the very beginning, their music has seemed to combine modern electronic music with the energy of improvised jazz. Strong and acoustic drums, double bass and trumpet intertwine with dreamy vibraphone, electric guitar and characteristic 70’s analogue electronica. Marcin Ciupidro - vibraphone Artur Majewski - trumpet, el. piano Marcin Ozg - acoustic bass, el. bass Kuba Suchar - drums, MiniMoog www.robotobibok.com

    Romvelope session
    The ROMVELOPE session you are about to hear was originally aired live on the You Are Hear Show on Jan 31st 2005 Inspired by noise legends Prick Decay, Evil Moisture and Tea Culture, amongst others, Bjorn Hatleskog’s persistent inability to be as amateurish as the above mentioned led him to quit music for twenty years. Eventually, after a chance meeting with angus keith (aka Atom truck) in a Norwegian sweet shop , he learned to accept, even love, his own high-powered, obtuse, academic style. Thus was born the ADAADAT label. www.adaadat.com

    Sculpture session
    This Sculpture performance was recorded live at the You Are Hear event "Fake Folk and Wrong Music" at Cargo on September 15th September 2005. Sculpture is the work of Dan Hayhurst who breathes life into old old tape machines creating the most blissful music of the future melding tape loops and analogue electronics. http://www.ultimatezon.co.uk/
