plaster - the fact that you got the sample pack for free is
not so great, simply because Fizzarum earn money only from
playing music, as you can imagine in eletcronica world -
they earn almost nothing. thats why they made the sample
pack - to try and earn some money , in order to feed
themself and their families. it may sound like a joke, but
its not unfortunately .

hehe,if you didn't notice they offer it for free on their
site,so i don't have the urge to buy smtn that's been kindly
offered to masses.

i'm aware of everything u said man,but what the hell...you
will prolly also wonder to their site and dl it,like
others.

the site and it says: "The price is $45. Now you can use
PayPal for payment. "

*Copy Pastes List of Artists into "too buy" list*

BTW Generally agree with opinions on "Warm Math" but I do
feel that that album has some of the best tracks they have
ever done on it.
It would have made a cracking e.p., bearing in mind that I
have a soft spot for melody.

I dl'ed one track by mendelayev and yeah, quite impressive.

belagio - mendelayev is a must! he's got that special kind
of mood in his tracks, really cool. you can find both
mendelayev and Syntetika here: electrosputnik

Hi! This is Dmitry from Fizzarum.
Fizzarum sample library was never FREE. By releasing that
CD, the intention was to get some financial support, which
allows us to make music. If you want to buy our sample
library "Threshold Electronica" welcome to
http://www.fizzarum.com
Thank you for your support.

to Plaster - keep your FREE library, but dont offer it to
others. You didn't put your time and work into that library,
and its definitely not yours to give it for free to others.
How would YOU feel, if money you earn from your work, was
given to anyone on the street?

Hi Dmitry,
I just wanted to say that monochrome plural is held up as
one of the few elite "idm" albums in my mind. Every single
track is aesthetically wicked as well as crafted with
control and detail few others can replicate. If you can be
bothered I highly recommend you check out Crunch's "1" album
since I think it's quite similar and you'd like it.

Good luck making money solely off music... it's hard to do
nowadays I reckon... especially if the money is split
between like 5 band members or however many you have.

Likewise, I list monochrome plural as one of my favourite
electronic albums of all time, (check my 1st ever post on
this board for proof)

What other stuff do you guys have out?, it's hard to get
hold of in London, I normally shop in Rough Trade, Sister
Ray,Ambient Soho,Smallfish etc.

soundguy - if you've got Monochrom Plural and Microphorus,
then you can get some compilations (from Merck, Lo, etc) .
in Selecta Disc on berwick they used to sell Fizzarum 12" on
that French label , cant remember the name , the cover with
a robotic cat. check Selecta disc maybe.

Points: 141 Status: Lurker



neetta - i like some of messer für frau müller stuff. and
their solo work as well (Oleg Kostrov). although i must say
that the latest releases are very similar to the previous
albums, so i've lost my interest a bit. if you have the
chance get Oleg Kostrov - Ivonna, i think its very lovely
piece of music (a soundtrack for theatre show actually).

cheers timtom, I don't have Microphorus as I've never seen
it anywhere, that's the one before Monochrome Plural?

I have RU 1 & PTMBIM (morr music comp) but the tracks off
these are both from MP.

To be honest I didn't even think Fizzarum were still going
because when I bought the Syntetika album it said "new album
from ex-members" so I presumed they were all doing their own
thing.

I'll check Selecta Disc though, what comps featuring their
stuff are good.

soundguy - Microphorus was released a month before the
album, also on Domino. i'm sure you can find a copy on eBay
or something. maybe even Music Exchange on Berwick. its got
one track from the album (Microphorus) + Bionic Boogie and 2
other tracks. well worth buying!

re compilations - if you want exclusive tracks, then you
should look for russian compilations i think. all the
compilation tracks on merck or Lo were taken from Monochrome
Plural. there is a cool track called Distorb on Artefacts
compilation (Art-Tek records, label of Solar X) , i bought
it here, and the whole compilation is very good as
well. also there was one new track on Out to city-3 from
Cheburec (another russian label) , and i think some track is
coming out on compilation from a new russian label .
Dars records. not sure if there was anything else.

Cheers again timtom, I'll look out for the Artefacts comp, I
don't have a credit/debit card at the moment so it's hard
for me to buy online but I have some friends who could
probably order it for me.

I'll keep an eye out for the others you mentioned too

Hi plaster,

That's ok. I thought that you want to share the full
library.
You are right. You can download from www.fizzarum.com some
preview samples of library for free. These samples is just
idea what you get when you buy full library.
Right now all is clear. Thank you.

well i'm glad that we sorted the whole thing...alongside
with the other apreciators of russian electronica i just
want to say that ur style is very influential and that i
hope u three will get the praise u fully deserve.
it's a shame that ur electronic scene is slowly comming
up,but i think that stuff u ppl do there will be the next
wave of modern electronic sound.

wish you all the best luck in producing new sounds!!!

my favourite Fizzarum tracks, any ideas?

explains that himself:)


 

offline timtom on 2004-06-10 10:28 [#01233020]
Points: 141 Status: Lurker



soundguy - the russian samples on Izoterica are taken from
popular russian sci-fi animation "The secret of the third
planet" from the 80's. the long sample says "Genious! Stay
here as the genious mechanic of the planet" . and the short
sample says something like: "These are controlled robots"

i dont know if that cartoon was ever translated and released
outside of Russia, but i recommend to find a copy, as its a
really good piece (i think there are 3 parts).

Matvey - Izoterica is on the Monochrome Plural album
(Domino)

soundguy and Matvey - "Izoterica" was influenced by the
popular russian sci-fi animation "The secret of the third
planet" from 1982. Thank you TimTom for translating the
phrases.
By the way, we're going to release a remix on the soundtrack
from that cartoon. The remix will contain warm analogue and
spacey melodies taken from the original soundtrack.

Uh, they look like samples of Russian swear words (russkii
mat'), unfortunately my knowledge of such words is limited.

The first word looks like it is derived from "shit"; the
third one from "cunt"...

Sorry to not be more helpful!

CD, with remixes from Fizzarum and Novel23. info from
Multiplex website:

NEW!!!! - MULTIPLEX E.p 'With Hands + Feet'
available to pre-order exclusively from this site featuring
remixes by digitonal, shitmat, proem, decadnids, safety
scissors, fizzarum, novel 23 and dictaphone.

^^^^^

Do you think this will be available in shops at some stage?,
I don't have a credit/debit card which is always a problem
for stuff like this but I really want to get it.

it looks really cheap as well, does buying direct always
work out this cheap?
if so I might break the habit of a lifetime and get myself a
piece of plastic.

4) - 'bitch', but that's not a complete equivalent

absolutely top notch. right up there with microphorus and
their other early classics imho. the rest of it is fun as
well. interesting mix of styles. definitely worth

Also of note, the Shaped Harmonics label has
also just released a delicious disc full of crunchy

beautiful ambient.

just bought the CD-R package from fizzarum, excellent

collection of some rare tracks, and they are worth every
penny!!
