latest “kukuruku” releases
Two new spring-time releases are now available from ‘kukuruku recordings’. Both of them are concert material recorded in Athens on January 2010.
Tasos Stamou’ “objects 1″ is the artist’s first combination between sound-installation of self-made devices and additional improvised solos.
Mike Cooper is an exceptional figure among the wanderers of avant-garde music. His Athens-concert is a synopsis of different techniques, including lap-steel guitar, singing and electroacoustic elements.

introducing orila / Ku – Ping Pong Show
introducing orila… I should have introduced orila a long time ago. orila is the ‘online phonographic workshop’ (rough translation) set up by yiannis iasonidis and specialising on guerilla concepts of record-releasing. Blank cdrs with to burn your downloadable music on; check. Special, unmarketable 3″ covers for the special edition, while you market the clear plastic sleeve edition; check. “Regular” cdr edition where each 10 copies or so have a different bit added to the cover because the label boss got new ideas in between; check. Amazing record sleeves that get constructed before the actual music gets recorded; check. Needless to say, we love orila, and it’s silly that we haven’t professed our love to orila all this time. I’m sorry orila, sometimes i get distracted.
Now comes the Ku edition. In two handmade versions, one a cool tape edition and the other a really out-there tape+decorated walkman edition, ready to listen to. Insane levels of cool of course. Did i mention that you can also just choose to download the thing?
the music contained is (as hinted) by Ku, aka Dimitris Papadatos. It was played live on an e-radio show, and comes “filled with obsessions, burst outs and romance. Kraut inflictions, dark vocals, drones and high frequencies transforming to birds.”

Fun With Nuns | Untitled
‘fun with nuns‘ is the name used by a group of performers active in the scene of thessaloniki for some time now. Appearing with a different line-up almost everytime they perform, they join the dots between free-jazz, no-wave, weirdo musics, psychedelic freakouts and good-old noise. They’re notorious for being blacklisted in their own city (though that doesnt mean they are too extreme, just that thessaloniki in general can’t stand a good weird concert), and for setting the regional record in clearing houses with their concerts.
now comes the record. a limited edition 3″ cdr released by the larissa-based more mars team, the first in the team’s NOUS 3inch series. here goes, 15 freaks participated in the making of this
