Old School Sundays - Part VI
The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy - Television, The Drug Of The Nation
A quarter century later, it's truer than ever. A real masterpiece of conscious hip-hop, with killer lyrics.
The song was originally from their former band, The Beatnigs, dating back to 1988, whereas this version dates from 1991/1992.

Gast Bouschet & Nadine Hilbert
I went to Luxembourg for Christmas and stayed there a few days, visiting the town (Vauban fortifications) and its museums (they really got great museums). This is where I met the astonishing works of Gast Bouschet and Nadine Hilbert.
In the MUDAM, there was their installation for the Luxembourg Pavilion at the 2009 Venice Biennale, called "Collision Zone", depicting the gloomy zones of the Mediterranean area, where two worlds collide, Africa and its (illegal) immigrants, and the "fortress Europe" with its more and more restrictive politics about immigration.

In the Casino Luxembourg there was just an installation left, called "Unground". I immediately felt their distinctive mark, and the sound was also something I thought I knew but didn't recognize at first. I learnt shortly after that it was a collaboration with Jason Van Gulick and Stephen O'Malley (Sunn O))), Khanate, Thorr's Hammer...)! It was made over a nearly two year period after the eruption of the icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull in 2010. The videos range from the London's City, where the new sorcerers (i.e. bankers, traders etc...) make their black rituals, to the frozen landscapes of Iceland where the ice turned black because of the volcano's ashes. The music sounds like a chthonic ritual, the video looks like it was taken through the eyes of an antediluvian creature... Astounding, mesmerizing, frightening... mandatory! Note that there will be a free live show with Jason Van Gulick and Stephen O'Malley the 4th of January, 2013.
