A selection of Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson and John Balance's possessions up for sale on eBay

As well as the PTV-related documents including lyrics, letters, outlines, notes, press releases above, there is also another of John's stage outfits, though I suspect this will not sell for anywhere near the $23,279.16 this outfit raised back in April last year. Other items include COUM and Throbbing Gristle posters and Coil DATs and cassettes

Stephen Mallinder - Technical Mix for LoneLady tour

In February and April Stephen Mallinder (CABARET VOLTAIRE/WRANGLER) joined LoneLady on tour for a series of DJ sets in support of the new album HINTERLAND.
In inviting Stephen to DJ LL aimed for a certain climate to descend for the evening…
'Technical' is the first of 3 mixtapes Stephen made, three trips through funk, techno, electronic, post punk and more…similar to but not replicating DJ sets played at the gigs, reflecting the headspaces, overlaps + contrasts in SM and LL's music.
As a fan of Cabaret Voltaire this was a delight for me..I think theirs is an innovative and great body of work …from menacing collages of totalitarian fears/fantasies to dance/electronic pop, and all the varied regions explored in between...
recognising the landscape this music comes from...the concrete labyrinth of the city with its excitements and implosions, invigorating yet out-of balance, a pressure-cooker forcing breakdown states, restless energy...
...enjoy.

Future Sound of Mzansi (Part 3)

Part three of Spoek Mathambo and Lebogang Rasethaba's documentary about South African electronic music dives into the fiery music and parties coming out of the country's townships. We also find out what happened to DJ Mujava, the producer behind "Township Funk," arguably the biggest hit to ever come out of South Africa. A larger question stands: how will all of this international acclaim provoke real change at home?

Sepp Blatter to resign

“I will organise extraordinary congress for a replacement for me as president. I will not stand. I am now free from the constraints of an election. I will be in a position to focus on profound reforms. For many years we have called for reforms. But these are not sufficient.”
