Experimenta - part 2 of 5 (2000)

This is the permanent archive for the radio show "Experimenta", that aired on Radio Nova in Oslo from 1996 to 2006. Here you can listen to 137 of the shows, with over 150 hours of music.

The profile was to play "everything from ambient to hip hop", via genres like trip hop, jazz, pop, soul, lo-fi, electronica, house, techno, drum'n'bass, breaks, noise, glitch, rock, mashups etc.

A big principle was to not play the same track or mix more than once, and over 2700 different tracks were aired. The host was Per Christian Frankplads.

International guests included:
The Orb, Mixmaster Morris, Ben Christophers, Raw Deal, Elegia/Laurent Collat and i:wound

Norwegians guests included:
Lindstrøm, Nils Petter Molvær, Bugge Wesseltoft, Rune Lindbæk, Claes Olsen, Eivind Olsvik, Mind Over MIDI/Helge Tømmervåg, Nicholas Sillitoe, Origami Galaktika/Benny Braaten, Päron Soda, Raymond Pellicer, Sketch/Kai Mikalsen, Sternklang and Xploding Plastix

Boxsaga - Atata
(w+p: Nick Phillips)
(from CDEP "Positive sweat") (PFACD7)
(.uk Blue/Universal Island, 2000)
(COMMENT: From a thorough four track EP on Ross Allen's new sub-label of the giant Universal, Blue. Ross Allen used to be in charge of the Filter division of the London label Dorado. LOTS of great music will come from this new label, I'm sure.)

(w: Oddgeir Hvidsten/Jostein Dahl Gjelsvik, p: Oddgeir Hvidsten)
(from CD "Groove tool") (BSCD029)

(from double CD "No accommodation for lagos/No discrimination") (STRUTACD002)
(.us Blues Interaction/.uk Strut, 2000)
(COMMENT: This double CD is released with love by the London reissue label Strut, and compacts the two soloalbums Tony Allen did in the late 70's, after he parted company with Fela Kuti after the two laid down the foundation for the term "afro-funk".)

Manic Street Preachers - Tsunami (Electron ray tube mix by Stereolab)
(m: James Dean Bradfield/Sean Moore, l: Nick Jones, p: Mike Hedges)

Neba Solo - Cinporoko nonougoro (Jeff Sharel mix)
(from promo compilation CD "Frikyiwa") (FRI008PROMOCD)
(.fr Cobalt/F Communications, 2000)
(COMMENT: Here's an idea - let electronic musicians remix African music. Not at all as commercial as Hardfloor's remix of Mory Kante, this is an interesting fusion of traditional African "folk music" and western repetetive electronic music.)

Recycler - Flying carpet
(w+p: Recycler)
(from CD "AlphaBhangraPsychedelicFunkin'") (NRCD1097)
(.uk Nation, 1999)

(w: Amar/Nitin Sawhney, p: Nitin Sawhney)
(from CDS "Red sky") (NEG122CD1)
(.uk Blanco Y Negro/Warner, 1999)

(from promo double 12" "Swords") (HAND59TP)
(.uk Hard Hands/Higher Ground/Sony, 2000)
(COMMENT: A good choice of remixers appear on this promo double pack: Cari Lekebusch, To Rococo Rot and Two Lone Swordsmen. In addition there are two new remixes by the boys - or should that be old men? - themselves.)

Kraftwerk - Expo2000 (Kling Klang mix 2001 radio edit)
(w: Hutter/Schneider/Hilpert)
(from promo CDS "Expo2000") (CD KLANG 001)
(.de Kraftwerk/.uk EMI, 2000)
(COMMENT: I hadn't played this before! I had to correct the mistake this night.)

DJ Food - Nevermore (Sleep dyad 2)
(w: Foakes, p: PC/Strictly Kev)
(from CD "Kaleidoscope") (ZEN CD47)

Underwolves - So blue it's black (Juryman aberash version)
(w: Jeb Loy Nichols/Ned Kelly/Professor Stretch/Betty Davis, p: Professor Stretch/Ned Kelly)
(from CDEP "So blue it's black") (PFACD5)
(.uk Blue/Universal Island, 2000)
(COMMENT: A wonderful, but a little short, remix by Juryman of an already good track.)

(w+p: Howie B)
(from CDEP "Take your partner by the hand") (569 327-2)
(.uk Polydor, 1997) www.howieb.co.uk

(from promo CDS "The player") (MUMCD 99DJ)
(.uk Mother)

(.uk Talkin Loud/Mercury, 2000)
(COMMENT: Phat beats with good melodies.)

Cosmos - Summer in space (Mark Pritchard mix)
(w+p: Tom Middleton)
(from CDS "Summer in space") (PFACD3)
(.uk Blue/Universal Island, 1999)
(COMMENT: Although Tom Middleton and Mark Pritchard have released lots and lots of amazing music before, their output as of late has been a far cry from the brilliance and originality they showed on i.e. their "76:14" album as Global Communication. But then again, who can blame them for trying to cash in on the general interest for house and electronic music in general that's in the air now. After all, they've more than paid their dues.)

Gary Numan - Cars (Dave Clarke remix)
(w+p: Gary Numan)
(from CD "Random (02)") (BBQCD 197)
(.uk Beggars Banquet, 1998)
(COMMENT: A nice electromix of this classic track.)

Slick Sixty - Hilary, last of the pool sharks (Meat Katie remix)
(from CDEP "Hilary, last of the pool sharks") (CDMUTE235)
(.uk Mute, 1999)

(w+p: CiM)
(from 12" "Series one") (HS004)
(.uk Headspace, 1998)

.22.30:
Lackluster - Trullcakes
(from promo CDR "Container") (FOC350CD)
(.uk Focus, 2000)
(COMMENT: This kid is from Finland, and has just released his first album on London label Focus, run by Clair who used to run Clear with Hal, who now does graphic work, I think. If you didn't get lost by that one, I'll just tell you that this album is very nice, reminiscent of a less complex version of Autechre, perhaps?)

Death in Vegas - Dirge (Slam remix)
(from promo 12" "Dirge") (DIRGE 2)
(.uk Concrete/BMG, 2000)
(COMMENT: Boring original track, nice slamming remix by the old men of Slam.)

Sven Väth - Dein schweiss
(w+p: Sven Väth/Johannes Heil)
(from CD "Contact") (CDVIR95)
(.de Virgin, 2000)
(COMMENT: From Väth's new offering, a weird and highly electronic album by the grandpa, or at least uncle, of electronic music. The new album doesn't exactly sound like his previous stuff on his former label Eye Q, that's for certain.)

(w: Mark Brydon/Roisin Murphy, p: Moloko)
(from CDS "The time is now") (RR 2111-3)
(.uk Echo/.nl Roadrunner, 2000)
(COMMENT: Moloko was supposed to have a gig the day after the show, Saturday, but it was unfortunately cancelled. I even gave out two tickets for the concert... and to the woman who won - sorry! We couldn't know. :-D)

David Bendeth - Feel the real (Jazz-n-Groove ultra classic edit)

(from CDS "Psyche rock") (462 031-2)

(w+p: Bergmund Waal Skaslien/Lars Årdal)
(from CD "Sound off") (EUCD 15)
(.no Turn Left Prod/Musikkoperatørene, 2000)
(COMMENT: Experimental music from Bergen, Norway. Known to collaborate with dancer and choreographer Jo Strømgren, this jazz musician has made this really interesting album, full of textures and sometimes beats, as in this track. Skaslien is amusingly enough sponsored by Nokia, and plays a Nokia 9110 on this track.)

Hardyboyz - Massive
(w+p: Kyrre Øverland Andersen/Stig Holte)
(from CDS "We can sing EP") (668521 2)
(.no Storm/Sony, 2000)
(COMMENT: A nice little track from an otherwise more big beatey EP. The Hardyboyz are based in Trondheim.)

Laurent Garnier - The man with the red face (Funk D'Void mix)
(w+p: Laurent Garnier)
(from CDS "The man with the red face") (F119 CD)
(.fr F Communications, 2000)
(COMMENT: It's been a while since we heard from Denmark and Funk D'Void. This mix suits the song well, and is far from a standard 4/4-house workout.)

Röyksopp - Wooden leg

(from compilation CD "Le big sloppy kiss") (74321 70530 2)

:FULL DOUBLE CD-ALBUM:
Various - Larry Levan live at the Paradise Garage
(.us West End/.uk Strut, 2000) (STRUTCD 006)
(COMMENT: The small recordlabel Strut in London re-releases old records, and this time they've gotten hold of a mix legendary DJ Larry Levan did at the Paradise Garage in 1979. The club closed in 1987, Levan passed away in 1992, and for all those who never got to hear him DJ live this mix is the nearest we get, full-on disco with the vibe of New York, 1979 in full effect.)

...20.00-21.00

(This program featured legendary Alex Paterson of The Orb as guest and co-host. Alex DJ'ed at the Subcity 02-party in Oslo in May, and I was lucky enough to catch a DJ-set from him when he was in town. The Orb is coming out with a new album sometime this autumn and Alex has also got a new label of his own called BadOrb on which he will be releasing interesting music on from summer on. Yes - I will be playing it all.

NOTE: Unfortunately it was a bit unpractical to write down the playlist as Alex was playing, so this time around you won't find any playlist. But please listen to the transmission!)

...20.00-21.00

(This program was part I of a festival special, where I focused (mainly) on artists who appeared on the Norwegian Quart-festival in Kristiansand and the Danish Roskilde-festival. Part II will follow next Friday. As most of you know, a terrible incident happened at Roskilde this year during the Pearl Jam-concert, where a total of nine people were killed because the crowd got out of control. So even though it was my first year and it should be mind-blowing, this tragedy made it impossible to enjoy the festival fully. I guess the Quart-festival would have been a better choice this year.)

(w+p: Bliss)
(.dk Music for Dreams, 2000)
(from compilation double CD "Real Ibiza 3: Chilling you softly") (REACT CD 180)

(from compilation double CD "Quart 00 Club")
(.no Quart Festivalen/Tuba, 2000)

(w: K.O. Artis, p: Olu/Stuart Matthewman)
(from CDS "Baby can't leave it alone") (GEE5012783)
(.us Gee Street/V2, 2000)

Remedeeh feat. ADL - Pound for pound
(m: Hermit, l: Remedeeh/ADL, p: Hermit/Monk/Payler)
(from CDEP "My everything") (BMSCD 2005)
(.se Bonnier Music Scandinavia, 2000)
(COMMENT: Swedish singer/rapper with a talent for both. Phat production, a nice groove and very good rapping from both. Don't know how the album is, though.)

(from CD "Same is it ever was") (XLCD 115)
(.us Tommy Boy/.uk XL, 1994)

(l: Jørg-1, m+p: Poppa Lars)
(from CDS "Reinspikka hip hop EP") (8 88612 2)
(.no EMI, 2000)
(COMMENT: Amazing Norwegian hip hop-duo from Northern Norway. Lars Audun Sandness and Jørgen Nordeng played Quart this year, and SHOULD have played Roskilde too, in my humble opinion.)

Kid Koala - Emperors main course
(from 10" "Emperors main course in Cantonese") (ZEN 1093)
(.uk Ninja Tune, 2000)
(COMMENT: Kid Koala played/DJed Roskilde this year with P-Love as Bullfrog, and I must say I've never seen anyone perform such magic with vinyl as these two very gentle and nice fellows did. Not only technically brilliant, Kid Koala turns out to be quite a performer as well, adding comments and little speeches on top of and in between the music. If he does his thing live nearby you, go see it!)

Nuyorican Soul featuring Jocelyn Brown - I am the black gold of the sun
(w: Charles Stephney/Richard Rudolph, p: "Little" Louie Vega/Kenny "Dope" Gonzales)

(w+p: Gábor Vályi)
(from compilation CD "Future sound of jazz vol. 7") (COMPOST 080-2)
(.de Compost, 2000)

(from CD "Jazzmatazz: Streetsoul") (8 50188 2)
(.us Virgin, 2000)
(COMMENT: Ah, Guru from Gangstarr is getting older, and the third album in the "Jazzmatazz"-series is far from as interesting as the first one. A lot of good people on it, but the general vibe is lacking. This track is nice, however, even though it's not at all "timeless", like Guru keep stating in the song.)

Kim Hiorthøy - Doktor Watson-trikset
(from 7" "Torture happiness") (ST 5403)
(.no Smalltown Supersound, 2000)
(COMMENT: To be honest, this is a quite boring and transparent single from one of Norway's better (known) designers and illustrators. This is just my opinion - John Peel of BBC loved it, apparantly. Anyway, this last track on the B-side is fairly nice and chilled.)

Bridge & Tunnel - Flussabwaerts
(w+p: Mark Bihler/Nathan Bennett)

(.uk Warp, 1999)
(from compilation double CD "Kevin & Perry go large") (VTDCDF298)

Etienne de Crecy - Noname
(from promo CD "Tempovision") (SLD 028 PRO)

Unforscene - Z
(from compilation CD "Dub plates from The Lamp") (PORK 072)
(.uk Pork, 2000)
(COMMENT: Unforscene are from England, and actually have TWO tracks on this compilation by Pork. Apparently "The Lamp" is a pub in Hull where the Pork people DJ from time to time, and almost all the tracks on this compilation are unsolicited demos that have been sent to label over the years. A VERY good compilation, with two Norwegian contributions that I'll return to later.)

(from 12" "Happiness") (AMOUR6T)
(.uk We Love You/Wall of Sound, 2000)
(COMMENT: Ashley Beedle DJ'ed the day after at the Oslo club S&C. I was there, and it wasn't that amazing or original, I'm sorry to say. He played a bit too much 'standard' housemusic to my taste. Oh well, his music and remixes are almost always brilliant, so keep it up in the studio, Ashley!)
