Martin Rev on Suicide's first album (ReasonanceFM 4/5/10)
Suicide by Suicide! In the early 70's Suicide burst on to New York's underground music scene performing their unique brand of 'Instrument' and 'Vocal'. The duo comprised of musician and keyboard player Martin Rev, alongside performance artist/vocalist Alan Vega. Suicide's early shows at the Mercer Arts Centre, Max's Kansas City, and CBGB's attracted the attention of both Glam Rock aficionados and the New Wave's burgeoning New Wave/Punk Rock clientèle alike. Press adulation led to their receiving a support slot on the Clash's 'Give Em Enough Rope' UK tour of 1979. It was here that their eponymous début was performed to a large audience for the very first time. Last year Iggy & The Stooges 'Raw Power' gigs at London's Hammersmith Apollo featured Suicide as chosen 'guests' of The Stooges on May 2nd and May 3rd 2010 where they performed their début album twice more. On May 4th Martin Rev gave Resonance 104.4 fm London this exclusive into Suicide's landmark début. http://martinrev.com
“As the author of the Patriot Act, I am
extremely troubled by the FBI’s interpretation of this legislation.
While I believe the Patriot Act appropriately balanced national security
concerns and civil rights, I have always worried about potential
abuses. The Bureau’s broad application for phone records was made under
the so-called business records provision of the Act. I do not believe
the broadly drafted FISA order is consistent with the requirements of
the Patriot Act. Seizing phone records of millions of innocent people is
excessive and un-American.”

♪♫ Ike Yard Mix for Electronic Explorations 266
“This mix skitters across three and half decades, pulls in some of our touchstones from the late 70’s – early 80’s, and moves over the next two decades touching down on some outstanding tracks that pushed that original aesthetic forward – expanding it, redefining it for both the uninitiated and those of us that have followed it through time. We included artists from the US, UK, Germany, and Switzerland. The mix concludes with an unreleased Ike Yard track submitted for a documentary on the architect Rem Koolhaas” - Michael Diekmann (Ike Yard)

'The Serpent of Sex-Perversion' (11 March 1932)
Sydney police with the aid of the Consorting Act have driven most of the infamous womenkind from the streets. As the means of banishing this eyesore, the Consorting Act has more than justified itself. But by skimming this scum off Sydney's well of foulness, the Consorting Act has laid bare a much greater menace to the health and morals of this city. The serpent of sex-perversion...
