Government Alpha: Resolution Of Remembrance 1992-1999 [4CD BOX-SET] $42
yasutoshi yoshida's government alpha project started in 1992 and quickly became one of the leading names in the third generation of japanese noise music. government alpha was characterized by its ferociously intense signature sound. noise fans often speak of a feeling of "pure energy" felt when listening to noise music. few artists consistently embodies this better than government alpha.
audiences in the west first started to take notice when government alpha appeared on the susan lawly "extreme music from japan" compilation and vinyl releases on segerhuva and vinyl communications. but at the same time yasutoshi recorded a series of works released on the cassette format. these were (as often is the case with noise tapes) released in very limited editions. the "resolution of remembrance 1992-1999" box-set is a selection of 62 tracks from these obscure releases in the years 1992 to 1999, released by labels like harbinger sound, mother savage noise productions, hospital productions, utsu tapes, american tapes and of course yoshida's own xerxes imprint. the first cd also includes previously unreleased tracks from 1992/93.
an unstoppable natural flow of soundwaves seemingly unfiltered by human presence, as unpredictable a flow as any natural force. pure noise, not filtered through, but channelled by the musician. let me emphasise how happy i am to see this box set being realised. hopefully it will work as an eye-opener to those who are new to the music of yasutoshi yoshida.

The Rituals of the Captured Moment 1000 movies series is a psychedelic rendition of a culture vomit resulting from an over-information toxicity roller coaster. Sourced from over 400 hours of footage documenting Australia's premier outsider, avant garde and other artists in their natural environments. Brutal noise, psyched-out pop, sincore, improvorama. Experience and memory is interwoven this time tapestry that blurs any line between audience and performer. The strobescopic transition between the hyper signified and the banal carry a severe epilepsy warning. "A kaleidescope adventure"
In a very special event Venting Gallery and Sunshine & Grease will present the five hours of Extreme Cinematic Insanity over two days! On Friday 5th March at 6pm - screening of the first 500 of the 1000 movie series - A cinematic marathon that can be appreciated in part or in its entirety. On Saturday 6th March at 3pm - a forum and workshop will be held with the creators of the Rituals. Nylstoch and Bonnie will talk about the production process of the 1000 films and will engage the audience with the creation of NEW LIVE RITUALS! A unique experience that cannot be missed [but may be repeated...]

New address. New Gallery
Hi, I know it's been a long time since I've posted on here. What can I say. It's a struggle keeping up with everything.
I've recently acquired a URL address, which currently leads you here. Eventually you'll be able to buy directly through me online. the address, if you didn't come from there is www.sunshinegrease.com/ It has a nice cover page currently, designed by Lachlan Conn. Lachlan is working with me on the gallery side of things, and brings with him some great design skills and incredible taste in music and the arts. Also a great deal of experience through his 2 years running the amazing Forepaw in Northcote, which closed in December 2008.
Lach and I will see to it that Sunshine & Grease continues with the same style in 2010.
Stay tuned.
New stock arrived recently from Mississippi Records, Notnotfun, Olde English Spelling Bee and Bum tapes. Also just got copies of the new Graham Lambkin book and his new solo CD, as well as the Shadow Ring's "Life review" CD. Get in touch via patap50@gmail.com if you're after anything from these fine labels or anything else.
More soon.
