B.A.A.D.M. proudly presents a tribute to the artist and director Derek Jarman, who passed away twenty years ago. Three Belgian bands that display an affinity with his films will perform at Art Cinema OFFoff. The blue screen of Jarman’s radical testament Blue (1993) will be disconnected from the recorded sound and reinterpreted by the musicians. The lineup of this adventurous evening features sound artist Af Ursin (Timo van Luijk), the young cold wave band Maan and Vortex Campaign. Exclusively for this unique occasion, the members of Vortex Campaign, who in the eighties collaborated with Coil and The New Blockaders, will create new work. Followed by a Blue Party, The Blue Project promises to be a challenging live event.

The Belgian record label B.A.A.D.M. stands for curated releases as artistic statements. Run by graphic designers Mathieu Serruys and Joris Verdoodt, its main interest lies in the exploration of music as a medium to evoke extramusical meanings, references, obsessions or strategies that can lay hidden behind sound.
Therefore B.A.A.D.M. welcomes musicians who stand out not only for their highly estimated perception of sound but also for their sensibility and awareness for the broader (sub)cultural spectrum and for their ability to create a highly personal atmospheric universe. B.A.A.D.M. honours those who are originators of unexpected beauty and vital rupture.

Lassigue Bendthaus is the electro-industrial project of Uwe Schmidt aka Atom™ or Señor Coconut from Germany. Uwe Schmidt began making music in the early 1980s, first playing drums, then switching to programming a drum computer after he had heard a Linn Drum on the radio. In 1986 he co-founded the cassette label N.G. Medien, on which his first musical work under the name Lassigue Bendthaus, "The Engineer's Love", was released. Soon after, he started to work on what would become his first official record release, the album "Matter". The recordings and production began in 1986 and took almost 4 years, until the album finally came out in 1991 on the German Parade Amoureuse label.
Musically somewhere between late "Industrial" and "Electronic Body Music", yet already anticipating "Acid" and "Techno", this production managed to cause quite a stir, due to its advanced production techniques. Songs pay strong homage to Kraftwerk, approaching the early industrial dance scene with a softer sequential approach than most of his contemporaries. "Matter" is a hermetic reflection about the relationship between perception, nature, science, technology and labor. This reissue comprises the entire 1991 "Matter" LP, as well a bonus 7" record containing 2 tracks never before released on vinyl. All songs on "Matter" were recorded and mixed by Tobias Freund (Pink Elln).
All songs have been remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The vinyl is housed in a jacket featuring the photographic traces of a high-energy photon hitting a proton. Each LP includes a 2-sided insert with original album reviews, press clippings, liner notes by Atom™ and photos.
