The electro duo FIXMER / McCARTHY is back. And how! Titelsong Chemicals (check the video!) clarifies again that the chemistry between these two gentlemen is more than okay! Terence Fixmer has released more technoid music under his own name before and in his solo compositions already showed a heavy influence of the dark electronic wave music from his adolescence.Thus it is no surprise that, if you put him in a studio with Nitzer Ebb - frontman and - voice Douglas McCarthy, sparks fly. The duo has already released strong work before but this Chemicals is a proper MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs) dropped in the EBM / electro world!.
Het electro duo FIXMER / McCARTHY is terug en hoe! Met de titelsong Chemicals (check de video!) is het nog maar eens duidelijk dat de chemie tussen deze beide heren meer dan goed zit! Terrence Fixmer, die al eerder onder eigen naam meer technoide releases uitbracht, bewees met zijn solocomposities al zwaar geïnspireerd te zijn door de donkere elektronische wave music uit zijn adolescente uitgaansjaren. Het mag dan ook geen wonder heten dat, wanneer je deze Fixmer in de studio zet met Nitzer Ebb-hoofd en -stem Douglas Mc Carthy, de vonken er af vliegen. Het duo bracht al eerder zeer sterk werk uit maar met deze Chemicals droppen de heren een ware MOAB (Mother of All Bombs) in de EBM / electro wereld!

Nick Cave supporting Australian Aboriginal Elders to create a suicide prevention app.
Nick Cave has just expressed his support for the Warlpiri community of Lajamanu in the Australian Tanami desert, who are crowdfunding an indigenous suicide prevention app and added the campaign to his official website: http://www.nickcave.com/news/kurdiji-1-0-campaign/
"We’re losing three aboriginal people a week to suicide and an indigenous person is four times more likely to take their own life than a non-indigenous person. Most indigenous suicides are children between the ages of 10 and 14.
When a young man committed suicide in 2005, in the remote community of Lajamanu, local Warlpiri elders said ‘Enough is enough’. With help from friends, Lajamanu established Milpirri festival to spread the traditional ideas of ‘Kurdiji’ among their young people. They began to fight for every single young indigenous life in their community. Since 2005 there hasn't been a single suicide in Lajamanu.
Now those same elders want to bring Kurdiji into the digital age, with a community created app based on stories, ceremonies and law. They want to fight for all aboriginal lives, not just those in remote or traditional communities. The app will be called Kurdiji 1.0. This is a community-led and community empowering initiative, with indigenous elders providing all of the app’s content. They have partnered with an expert team to develop the app and roll it out across the whole of Aboriginal Australia."
Here you can see a short video about the project on You Tube.
You can also support the elders via our GoFundMe page: www.kurdijiproject.com or www.kurdijiproject.org
Aboriginal suicide rates are at the level of an epidemic and a genuinely community led technological approach hasn’t been tried before – so we’re in unknown territory to some degree. Your help, in spreading the word about our campaign, will make an enormous difference.
Jake Lee has been making music under the name ‘Sidewalks and Skeletons'.......loud, dark and experimental music without boundaries, an atmospheric dark blend of Witch House electronica.
Perfect for fans of Crystal Castles, Mr Kitty and Marilyn Manson and a fitting soundtrack for walking through graveyards at 3am… VERY DARK!
