Video: Carnival Star - Velveteen

Taken from the "Era Sessions EP" - Velveteen is one of five covers featuring 5 bands and 5 albums from the late 70's and early 80's.

The EP features vocalists and musicians from various countries. Released as a tribute to those bands and musicians who remain a strong influence in the music of others around the world.

--------------------

"Just heard Carnival Star's cover of one of my old songs. At first I thought it was the fucking original..."

"Carnival Star's version of Velveteen evoked an epoch of good memories that I had almost forgotten... The song was born from one of my simple chord sequence that was meant to go round and round and hypnotise the listener. Live it grew to become a real corker!
Cheers Carnival Star for the trip!"

--------------------

The "Era Sessions EP" was recorded in various countries around the world with various musicians taking part during a five month period.

Scotland, England, Italy, Norway & USA to be exact.

The original concept behind recording these covers was simply for entertainment and to take a break from the recording and writing of the original album material for future release.

However, it soon became clear that the fun was producing some interesting results and that these tracks should go out for free as a tribute to the bands that many of us in Carnival Star regard as influences and inspirations to all of our music.

Staying true to the arrangements of the originals, our aim was to simply take the tracks and produce an EP that we enjoyed making and performing.

Death Party UK- A Lady In Black

Uploaded to Gothtune TV at youtube. Death Party UK - A Lady In Black.



Biography
Death Party UK is an official side project I put together after I decided to put Midnight Configuration on hold for an indefinite period of time.
Throughout the years of me running Midnight Configuration, and before that when I was the guitarist in Every New Dead Ghost. Every now and again whilst working on tracks, I would come up with a riff that did not fit into the MC and ENDG musical paradigms. These riffs were from way back in my dark subconscious and reflected my "other" set of influences that included:
The Gun Club, The Cramps, Captain Beefheart, Neil Young, The Hunters Club, The Bomb Party, Johnny Cash, The Birthday Party etc,etc and at those times, I could do nothing with them.
However, as the years went by these riffs and ideas stewed and simmered, mutated and grew stronger and stronger until in August 2011 I set them free in the Nightbreed recording studio and the digital only release (release date 29.11.11) "The Black Train EP " was unleashed upon an unsuspecting world.
I hope you enjoy this glimpse into the darker roots of rock n roll and stay with me for further evil riffs and beats to come forth in the near future.
There will be more..........

Biography
Drawn from a collective obsession with fringe philosophy and post-new-age consciousness, Self Initiation evokes the moods & spaces of 4AD's early roster (Swans, Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins), with a nod to contemporaries The Soft Moon, Factory Floor & Portishead's 'Third'. Thick pulsing rhythms erupt into glorious, cascading conclusion; from narcissistic rants, to sickly crooned anthems; from the outer regions of reality to the depths of the subconscious, a white shadow emerging from the process: ASCETIC.
Recorded, mixed & mastered at Birdland by Lindsay Gravina & Rob Long (HTRK, New War, Rowland S. Howard, Hungry Ghosts).
Ascetic: - Self Initiation will be released worldwide through OSCL Records on March 4th, 2013.

Still Patient? - Impact (Gothic Rock 2014)

STILL PATIENT? is a Gothic Rock | Dark Rock Band from Germany
Biography
Still Patient? was formed in the beginning of 1988 by lead singer Andy Koa and guitarist Th.Kraniny. Their joint love of gothic rock bands such as The Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim and The Mission influenced their first steps in music. For a short time bassist Matthias Wolf was also part of the band. In 1990 guitarist Christian Ogrinz joined the band and some of the songs which appeared on their initial demo tape and later on their first album were written. From the beginning the band choose to use a drum machine rather than a live drummer.

Later that year Christian parted company with the band to concentrate on his own projects and M*Beck took over his guitar duties. Hedge Kaluza also joined the ranks on keyboards and Still Patient? played their first live shows (with Deine Lakaien and Das Ich). After a few more live dates were under their belts the band compiled their first demo tape.

In 1992 they signed to Hyperium and the first album "Salamand" was released. This was followed up in 1994 by the second album "Cataclysm" which was also on Hyperium. The band then decided that this was to be the final release for the label.

In 1996 Alice in... signed Still Patient? and published the limited Chameleon EP, however the proposed new studio album never got further than the demo tape stage. The recorded material did eventually see the light of day on the "Nightmare Arrival" album which mainly consisted of some home recordings and exclusive material. The album featured the track "Shadow of the Empire" which was used on the soundtrack of the computer game Battle Isle III - Shadow of the Emperor by Blue Byte. A specially produced video can also be found here.

In the following years Still Patient? appeared on numerous European festivals such as the Wave Gotik Treffen (1996 and 1999), the Sacrosanct Festival in London (1996 and 1997). They toured in Germany with Soul in Isolation and The Tors of Dartmoor and also played some festivals in Italy (Genoa and Rome).

In 1998 Still Patient? started work on their final studio album "Demondive". At this point bassist AX of Minus Men joined the band.

"Demondive" was released in June 1999 by Schwarzrock. The band again played at the Wave Gotik Treffen in Leipzig before their last live performance at the end of 1999 on a festival lineup which included Crematory and Saxon among others.

Shortly after that Still Patient? disbanded due to the members different musical expectations. Andy Koa formed the bands Anodyne-29 and Burnsafe, Hedge Kaluza started the project Datasushi and M*Beck joined Boiling Blood. Hedge Kaluza and M*Beck were also guest musicians in the Surround Pop Movie Polyradah by the German electro-band No Comment. This was released on DVD and CD by Echozone/Sony BMG in 2008. They enriched the wavy Enyradah, Floor 122 and the club hit Silver Skulls with the atmosphere of the old Still Patient?

2012 M*Beck, Hedge Kaluza and Andy Koa decided to work on a reunion.

2013 Still Patient? starts with three new Members and rerecorded their Track MASCARA OSIRIS from 1992. A handful of new Songs are written and the Band prepares to be back on stage.

Just before their first appearance on Stage after 14 years, long term member Hedge Kaluza decided to leave the band due lack of time. Jörg, who joined the Band at their reunion as the first time real Drummer in the band history, also left the band.

In Autumn 2013 Still Patient? recorded a 5-Track EP at the Kohlekeller Studio in Germany, wich contains 4 brand new Songs and 1 Song from their first release SALAMAND from 1992.
The EP "Selective Perception" will be released early 2014.

Katabazija - Rebro (Gothic Rock Serbia)

Manifest:
Beyond heaven and divine coexistence, unique view ,
unusual circled issue true the basically dark way,
unconditional by today tendencies that everything
has to be by the established taste. madness of thoughts,
unlikeness of minimalistic machine and totally decaying
irrational state of spirit, poetry of hedonism, bunt of
collapse where the shape is unrecognizable because it's way
ahead of this time... Catacombed by midnight cream,
wisely deep, even magnificent disgusting and beautiful.
Like a bud and petaled flower. With glowing eyes,
manages to establish threshhold of absolute freedom by the
new dark chapter. Absurd and disharmony. At the end of
the experimental way discovers the trail and within,
wave of immortal, roar of silent nook of infinite derangement
and seduce of him who remain silent..

Vanity - Sleeping Tears (Pagans Pt. I)

A Church Independent Production

Directed by Giovanni Aloi (TheSponk Studios)

Written by N

Cinematographer & a.d : Andrea Barone
Lighting & grip : Niccolò Corradini
Producer : Marco Putignano
Vfx: Marco Miraglia

Biography
Vanity is a name which could suggest a formal and superficial approach rather then real substance. It's a conscious contradiction indeed, 'cause the impact of their sound is deep, bearing the charm of everything that is esoteric and obscure.
Vanity interpret the classic dichotomy between form and substance, suspended between grace and disgrace.

Altough based in Tuscany (Italy), members of Vanity come from different countries and cultures.
N, the singer, was born in Gaza (Palestine); the bass player F. is helvetic, and the country's severe and austere character it's reflected in the way he plays.
F and T -- respectively guitar and drums -- they used to live for a long time away from the blunders of modernity, in a small village on the Tuscan hills.

Vanity's debut album "Occult You" was recorded in complete isolation between December 2011 and February 2012, with help from producer Lorenzo Montanà (Tying Tiffany, TTL).
The album was released in Italy first early 2013, then in summer it got distribution in Europe by Rough Trade, with local promotion, getting enthusiast feedbacks in Germany, Austria, Benelux and even from Russia and Baltics.

It can be said that Vanity are a rock band, mainly 'cause they write songs indeed, with a retro vibe and post-modernist attitude.
It's not wave, it's not metal, it's not indie, but possibly all these things together, developed through the style, the imagination and the sensibility of the band.
The voice, the afterlife choirs and the guitars, sometimes distant and muffled and sometimes brazen, are the distinctive elements that characterize the sound of Vanity.

Vanity's sound is utterly fillled by a ruthless romance, by extreme melodies and by a crude and dark melodrama.
There's definitely something that, instinctively and without compromises, repels or attracts

The album and the lyrics are featured from a never published novel of N, "Occult You", which became the album title.
A private tragedy and drama that blends not only love (the central theme of the album), but also loneliness, anguish, the inevitability of fate and incommunicability.
Description
A frontman from Palestine, bassist from Switzerland, Guitarist and Drummer from Italy. The sound of VANITY is a thrilling and romantic mix of genres including shoegaze, indie, psych and post-punk.
"Occult You" is the band's debut album, released across Europe in May 2013 via Rough Trade/Church Independent.
It was hailed by the critics and the press as one of the most interesting and international italian album of the year.
Another important aspect are the music videos produced by the band, an integral part of their imaginary, hosted, among other by NME, Rolling Stone and Tape.tv, as well as the publication in the major European webzine.

Background:
The musical project The Nine Tears was born in June 2011 from the mind of Michele Perrella, who decided to give shape and substance to his solo compositions. Great friend and manager of Gene Crazed, the first one-man band Italian rockabilly, he offers to him to play the guitars in their songs, confident in his musical experience, result of years spent on Italian and international stages and of a remarkable musical culture. The agreement turns out to be good when their first song, Killing Time, realized as The Nine Tears, immediately gets many positive responses from fans of the genre, experts in the field and another one-man band, Carlo Baldini, creator of the darkwave project My Terminal And The Trip. Impressed by the creativity and flexibility demonstrated by his compositional and instrumental solo project, Michael invites him to play bass in the Nine Tears. Carlo accepts and the arrangement proves successful with him, his bass lines matches perfectly with the sound path taken by the duo, which from that point officially became a trio. The band starts immediately to work to make his first EP to be released within the month of October for The Holy Hour Records. The band, in early 2012, it instantly goes to work to record his first full length and "engages" the musician and remixer Gerardo Konte.

Intervju med Asrai

Asrai, you started as a band 1985 with only females. Over the time you have changed your lineup several times. Tell us about the way where you are today, have the struggle been hard?

Yes we started in 1985 as an all girl band. At that time there was a lively music diverse squatting scene in Rotterdam and a lot of our friends were playing in a band, but only the guys played the instruments. So it was time to add some girl power to the scene. Nowadays we are the only band still existing from that era , with a steady line up now for almost ten years. And with this line-up we had our break through.

Karin1Sometimes the struggle was hard, we had some line up-changes and it wasn't easy to find people with the right chemistry,( and with all the line ups we played for several years). But when people want to move on you need to let them go. We were lucky with people we found and friends they became. Also the prejudices against women in music struggle was a pain, although it never stopped us playing our music.

Throughout the years it was an exceptional journey starting from playing in squats up until the big venues and touring.

Has there been any moment you felt like the doors opening up for you as a band?

When we signed at Transmission records, the doors really opened up for Asrai. We were signed almost the same day they received our demo. Crazy times followed with a lot of gigs, our album released in Europe ,South America and Asia, a European tour, our clip on MTV and the Box, yes suddenly we reached and touched a lot of people with our music

Manon - KeysYou have worked with music for a long time, what is the different today in the gothic scene from the 80´s or 90´s.

A lot has been chanced, including us ;). But I think the most important thing in the Netherlands is the venues. In the 80’s there were so many more venues, it was much easier to play somewhere. With all the restrictions on sounds, safety and all the things the government could think of to close down as much as possible. The venues have increasingly comercieler programming process since they no longer receive subsidies like before.

In the 80’s it wasn’t called Gothic yet, but I think there was always a people who were ore interested to go to see live bands and a group who prefers the dance parties. But through the years you see the scene develop, and different styles in the scene, think about cyber, steam punk, I think that is nice through the years that in the gothic scene everybody can express their creativity in their own way.

Do you believe we enter a third wave for the gothic rock?

Wasn’t thinking about it like that, but I think you could be right, a new generation and a new era for Gothic Rock.

Margriet-vocalsYou released a cd some months ago, "Pearls in Dirt". Tell us more about this record.

After the release from Touch in the dark, we started to write new material. We wanted Sascha Peath to produce the album and was supposed to be released by Transmission records again. Just before recording the record company went bankrupt. What was a disaster of course, lucky enough we found Season of Mist who wanted to release the album. Another label, another vision and approach.

We recorded Pearls in Dirt in the Excess studio, with Hans Pieters and it became a hot blooded album, with songs about love, losses and all the things called life.

Did it take long time to write the material and finish it?

Some songs formed pretty quick and others took a bit longer to grow on us, they needed some time to turn out the way they are now.

Do you have any upcoming gigs?

March 16 in Brussels, Belgium. It the first edition from an event called Coalescaremonium

What is the most weird experience you had on a concert?

Through the years we had some weird experiences, one of the most funniest was, that we left the stage in London and missing Manon, she couldn’t leave because a fan was hugging her ankles so she couldn’t leave, of course we rescued her… and one of the first times we were playing on a big festival, when a girl showed Martin her sexual capabilities... and he missed some notes ;).

You made a video for your song "All seems so Hollow", tell us more about it. Who made it for you? Did it take long time to make it?

All seems so Hollow was one of the first songs we wrote after Pearls in Dirt. Sascha Peath wanted to be our producer again and we recorded it at The Gate Studio in Germany.

We wanted to have a video clip for this song. And Loes Baijens and Silver shot the video . It was so much fun to do, we found a farm barn (close were we used to live in our youth) where we could record the clip. When we were there for the first time we saw some awesome cars. And they suggested that we could use one of those It became a midnight blue Mustang from the 60’s that was so cool. Everybody was so nice and helped us out it was awesome. Natascha from Studio Mystica helped us out with a lot of details. The recording took all day, I think we played the song for more than a hundred times but it showed off, we’re really happy with the result.

Do you have any other future plans?

Rik2The music business is changing we all know it and still don’t know what direction it’s going. It’s insane to see how many studio’s, labels, venues and festivals went bankrupt

Time changes and we and we think it’s time to get back to our roots, therefore we decided to do everything ourselves again, just to be pure in the process. Following our own vision and believes. At the moment we recorded 5 new songs at the Gate Studio with Sascha Peath again. He knows exactly what we mean and it’s such a pleasure to work with him. Just put All seems so hollow in the air, and our further plans, just to do what we love the most, making and specially playing music.

Is there anything you want to tell the reader, that we forgot to ask?

Keep supporting bands, buy their cd’s and merchandise and go to the gigs. Follow them on social media, give them your support. And thank you for this interview
