- W0t! DID! YOU! SAY?
- Easy Listening
- Hmmm, I think I misheard you
- No I think not
- Did you say: Easy Livin’?
- No, Easy LISTENING!
- Easy Listening on Och, where’s the world going to

Because some Ochers need some rest this sunny sunday, what’s more suitable then some easy listening sounds. Therefor Boyd Rice and Frank Tovey combined forces to deliver the soundtrack to your hangover mood. (Demonoid | Torrentspy)

Frank Tovey
As stated in the wiki: “Frank Tovey (September 8, 1956 - April 3, 2002), better known as Fad Gadget, was an influential British avant-garde electronic musician who was a pioneer of the budding genres of New Wave and electronica.” What more can you add?

Besides a musician Tovey was also a performer with a huge interest for shaving cream. His stage appearances were very intense, leaving him injured more than often. Broken legs, blue eyes and all other kinds of mutilation.

Tovey died just at the moment that his career got a new impulse. Sadly but typically!

Fad Gadget’s collaboration with Einstürzende Neubauten

Boyd Rice
Call a controverse and you can fill in the name of our satanic darwinist friend, Boyd Rice. Racist, nazism and a proclaimer of rape. Just a few of the questionable thoughts of Rice. However fuck the beliefs and concentrate on the music.

From the seventies Boyd Rice is terrorizing the world with experimental noise. Especially under the NON moniker he delivered a vast amount of noise to us mere mortals. Music, Martinis and Misanthropy can be considered as Boyd Rice’s magnus opus, although leaving the noise roads a bit, this record is all what Rice is about!

Collaborations with Current 93, Death in June and Sol Invictus, making Rice one of the leading persons in the avant garde scene of the mid eighties, early nineties.
