Almost 3 years after the release of his previous album Trois Clous, Kecap Tuyul unleashes some more stuff dating from the same area (2015), developing an intensive use of voice as main sound source, filtered, deformed by effects and sometimes overwhelmed by feedback. Guitar was still here (on 2 of the 3 tracks  of the album), providing unstable melodic/droney backgrounds, but often swallowed by spirals of self-dissolving chaos.
Since then Kecap Tuyul has put guitar and voice aside and now mostly uses no-input mixer, in collaboration with various people, and alone under the Failure Circle moniker, focusing on chaos itself, searching for unstable situations, but welcoming the possible emergence of  seemingly self-organized sonic forms.

Track 1 : improvisation with voice & effects improvisation, overdubbed on the fly with another voice track.
Track 1 & 2 : improvisations with voice, prepared guitar, effects – no edits, no overdubs.
Mixed by Kecap Tuyul january-september 2015

While Kecap Tuyul’s previous album Tunnel Songs was the result of years of slow work, Trois Clous documents it’s rawer improvisations with voice and prepared guitar. Each track was recorded in one day, 2 of them contain no overdubs at all.
Three outlines of an obscure world, where echoes of ritual industrial, subdued bits of minimalist repetitive noisy rock, feedbacky drone (or is it drony feedback) get mashed in in a halo of lo-fi murkiness…

With Tunnel Songs, Kecap Tuyul delivers his possibly darkest batch of half improvised ritual tunes to date on eg0cide productions. Prepared guitar is still at the core of his music, but voice and melodies are getting more in the foreground than before. The tracks of the album were loosely recorded between 2009 & 2014, and patiently mixed between 2012 & 2015 in various places.

New solo album: Restes out on Eg0cide Productions. As often, it is based on improvisations on prepared guitar. But this time the raw material has been overdubbed later and gave birth to some kind of weird, foggy “songs” (?).

My other shadow is a completely acoustic album, rather lo-fi and mostly improvised during a rainy week of april 2012 (although using also some old recordings from 2009-2010)

Special thanks to Kecap Tilil for having pushed me to record acoustic guitar, and to C.P. Mc Dill for the support and release on his netlabel Webbed Hand Records.
