Themen Mint Nr. 36

Titelstory: Deep Purple Es existieren wohl nur wenige Bands, die so lange aktiv sind und zugleich so viele Besetzungswechsel hinter sich haben. Auf 40 Seiten widmet sich Mint deshalb zunächst jeder einzelnen „Mark“ der Hardrock-Pioniere, wie Deep-Purple-Fans die Besetzungen bezeichnen, sowie ihren wichtigsten Studio- und Livealben. In der „Master Class“ nimmt sich Frank Wonneberg in aller Ausführlichkeit Machine Head vor; das musikalisch einflussreichste Album der Band, während Fotograf Didi Zill, der die Briten über Jahrzehnte begleitete, für Mint sein riesiges Fotoarchiv geöffnet hat. Mint-Chefredakteur Dennis Plauk geht in „Enthüllt“ ausführlich auf das Cover der dritten, nach der Band benannten LP ein. Und nicht zuletzt stellen Sänger Ian Gillan, Schlagzeuger Ian Paice und Gitarrist Steve Morse die Soundtracks ihrer Leben vor.

Signierte Schallplatten Mint-Autor Gerrit Terstiege erzählt von einem ganz speziellen Sammelgebiet, in dem er sich selbst rege betätigt: Vom Künstler selbst unterzeichnete Platten und Plattencover. Wie verifiziert man die Authentizität, welche signierte Platte ist die teuerste – und möchte man sie überhaupt besitzen?

Der Tütensammler Vinyl ist nicht der einzige Kunststoff, für den sich Roman Bühlmann begeistert.

Themen MINT Nr. 35

Titelstory: A Journey Into Sound
Wann klingt Musik perfekt? Auf dem Weg von der Songidee über die Aufnahme, das Mastering und die Plattenproduktion bis zur Wiedergabe spürt MINT den unterschiedlichen Faktoren nach, die den Klang beeinflussen. Eine allgemeingültige Antwort gibt es dabei nicht, dafür viele verschiedene Antworten, die auch Sache des persönlichen Geschmacks sind und in einer Titelgeschichte über die Suche nach dem perfekten Klang vereint werden. MINT-Autor Carsten Sandkämper sprach dazu mit Tontechniker und Produzent Alan Parsons, während Chefredakteur Dennis Plauk das Vater-Sohn-Gespann hinter dem Edel-Plattenspieler-Hersteller Transrotor besuchte.

Zuhause ist, wo die Plattensammlung steht

A four-year filming of the present-day live houses and clubs that supported band members and band kids from the 1980s to the 2010s, but are no longer around today. Tokyo Rockers - The band boom, the melodic hardcore boom, and the places where we kids poured our youth into.

In the previous issue, 42 sites were introduced, mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area, but this time 64 sites were covered. The coverage area has been expanded to include not only the Tokyo metropolitan area, but also Osaka, which is important for unraveling the history of punk/hardcore in Japan.

FRANKIE FOREVER

Without Frankie Knuckles there would be no Faith or the culture we are built on. He has been our guiding star since we launched back in the late '90s.

So ten years on from his passing, welcome to the very special Frankie Knuckles / Spring issue.

Frankie was so much more than The Godfather of House as our many loving tributes, stories and memories from friends and fans show.

His legacy continues through the music and memories he has left behind. And thanks to the Frankie Knuckles Foundation who have helped with this issue, his mission as the global ambassador of house music continues through the causes he supported.

With much love and deep admiration, we give you our Frankie Knuckles special.

Keep the Faith.

The Tories Are The Real Criminals is an A5 zine of Matt Smith’s images of non-violent direct action from demonstrations against the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. The legislation was invented to criminalise the culture of free parties, festivals, squatters, travellers and peaceful protest which had grown, flourished and thrived over the previous decade attracting vast public support.

Three national demonstrations took place in London during 1994’s long, hot summer that transformed the nature of peaceful protest forever. In May, July and October hundreds of thousands of people from all over the country travelled to England’s capital city to dance their way through its streets. The common intention was to just say no to new laws designed to outlaw the lifestyle choices of a generation. For the first time, the spirit of carnival fused with rave culture to combine celebration and opposition.

In a modern liberal democracy standing up for liberty, freedom and voicing dissent at injustice is supposed to be a valuable tradition with immense social worth. A judge called Hoffman even said so at the time. The Tories disagreed and passed their laws anyway with a little help from their secret inside weapon, the new leader of the “opposition.”

1994 was a year of fervent resistance against the encroaching Criminal Justice Act in the UK. Amidst the clamour of dissent, three historic demonstrations echoed through the streets of London, challenging the very fabric of authority and transforming the nature of peaceful protest, forever.

Through the lens of Matt Smith (Exist To Resist), witness the raw energy and unity of the protests that shook the capital. Each image in this zine is a testament to the power of the people, capturing not just moments frozen in time, but the spirit of a generation refusing to accept oppressive legislation.

GRRRLS BY LODOWNMAGAZINE
it’s not just a buzz. It’s for real this time. Slowly but steadily, it’s gonna happen. That thing called change. And it will be a predominantly female-centric one.
You shouldn’t expect any kind of elaborate superstructure in this very issue though. There is no men vs women and its implicit over-simplified presentation format of evil vs good - because reality proved itself to be a lot more complex than that. Instead, Lodown’s latest issue GRRRLS presents itself as a celebration of all the uncountable female talent out there that’s dedicating their craft to turn this planet into something more beautiful, smart, reflecting and overall rad again. That’s it, really. It’s a celebration of those individuals with an intact moral and intellectual compass. The days where girls have to be something other than themselves altogether are finally numbered.


Highlights of our GRRRLS issue include…

- SARAH MAPLE... Celebrated British artist Sarah Maples certainly is no stranger to challenging your beliefs about society, gender roles, religion, Internet culture, the art circuit, and whatnot - she smoked in a hijab, got beaten live on tape, transferred Disney-princesses into the academic world, and is pro-orgasm while wearing a burqa. What usually would be considered as being downright smart and deliciously provocative immediately got incredibly scandalized because Maple’s not only pro-feminist but of mixed Islamic background.

- MENTRIX... All it needs to snap out of the current state of ignorance is reminding ourselves that it’s actually quite simple to become bigger than we’ve been recently - greater in spirit and more courageous. And Berlin-based Samar Rad aka Mentrix could be just the right musical catalyst for bringing this endeavor into fruition. At this point, the multidisciplinary artist is far from being exhausted from fighting the good fight, even though she basically spent the last four years working on the accurate transition to introduce her artistic vision to the world - and the result is nothing less than breathtaking.

- SHAUNA TOOHEY... When the cultural landscape becomes a drag, it is high time to create a new narrative. Multidisciplinary artist, designer, The Changes member and mother, Shauna Toohey advocates living joyously through community engagement, inclusive creativity, collective wah-wah and a decent dose of subversive rupture. The status quo has no choice but to mutate. Toohey is all for making culture collective and (psy) active in the here and now, not stuck in yesterday’s rut, but brandishing future vision and grounded in today’s fun.

- COMPUTER GRRLS... The first computers were programmed by women, 75 years ago, and women wrote the software behind Neil Armstrong’s ‘giant leap for mankind’. Since then, IT has become ever more important and gradually turned into a field for nerds where women seem out of place altogether. But the tide is turning: a new wave of Computer Grrrls presents itself through a fantastic exhibition at Rotterdam’s MU, which highlighted the historical role women played in the development of computer science.

- plus more elaborate features and visual awesomeness from the likes of: Abigail Varney, Mia Haggi, Brijean, Agnes Denes, Karen Hackenberg, Midsoomar, Issy Wood, The Paranoyds, The Evolution of IT Girls and many others.

“Vandals“ by Lodown Magazine is an artistic exploration of how to do things differently and civil disobedience.

Highlights include…

• JOHN DIVOLA... As he nears 70, the legendary LA-based artist might have quit spraying symbols inside abandoned buildings, but his artistic acts of vandalism still feel irritatingly fresh after forty years.

• DAVE RIMMER... The former British music journalist and Smash Hits! editor talked with us about his forgotten masterpiece “Once Upon A Time In The East“, in which he tells true tales about mischief in West/East-Berlin before the Wall came down - his classic “Eastie Boys“ prank included.

• HARIS NUKEM... The celebrated photographer just had a solo show titled “Humans“ at the NR Project art space London in late summer, proving once again that “good vibes“ is a very flexible expression, as the very majority of his stunning portraits capture individuals consciously on a collision course with society and its established norms.

- plus more elaborate features and visual awesomeness from the likes of: ERIC BRUNETTI, KIDULT, MATIAS AGUAYO, SUPER DARK TIMES, DANIEL BUREN, SpY, GHOST, JELLE KEPPENS, BOBBY HUNDREDS and many others.

On the cover: The Haxan Cloak. Inside: DJ Znobia, Linda Smith, Ariel Kalma, Billy Bultheel, Lumpeks, Yasuhiro Morinaga, John Pope, Invisible Jukebox: Kahil El’Zabar, Epiphanies: Edward Ka-Spel on Faust, The Inner Sleeve: Teresa Winter on Saint Etienne, Global Ear: Santiago, Unlimited Editions: Thanatosis Produktion, Unofficial Channels: The Blindboy Podcast, and in the reviews sections: Allison Burik, John Surman, Univers Zero, Techno Animal, Le Guess Who?, rap in Britain and much more.

’Hauntological’ genius curator/ musician Kristen Gallernaux in conversation.

Summertime might feel like this highly anticipated long stretch of lazy - but in actuality you just canalize your energy differently as you’d normally do because life just feels a bit easier as soon as you squint in the bright sun. You hustle as hard as you ever do but suddenly your daily routine seems to be filled with swimming strokes and mastering summersaults.
Lodown’s latest adventures into creative procrastination is titled “Lemonade“ - an aptly chosen variable for each and everyone’s favorite season - which will offer an even more colorful, wild, sexy, funny, silly, adventurous and overall entertaining ride than usual. Some might even say it is filled with the same magic usually connected to summertime only.

Featuring:

Benjakon, Ed Harrington, Saint Hoax, Icy & Sot, Cain Caser, JAck Daly, French Fred (Mortagne), Stephen Burridge, Sinziana Velicescu, Eve De Haan, Fanakapan, Erin D. Garcia, Olimpia Zagnoli

After the big Anniversary issue #100 we thought it?s a brilliant idea to deal with Youth and its subsequent cultures - before we?re getting too old to have a clue about it. This the first issue in a series of shape-shifting editions in a mono-thematic fashion.

And here?s a little sneak peek on what?s happening in our Youth issue?

• Don Letts ... the original culture clash master, who single-handedly turned a generation of punks into reggae enthusiasts, speaks his mind about youth culture?s rich past and rather sober present.

• Mark Oblow ... has been busy building his own brand moblow between surfing, skating, consulting, shooting photos for various clients and enjoying the beaches and food of Costa Mesa.

• Less ... the celebrated South Korean photographer is an expert when it comes to capturing Seoul?s youth, which has the tendency to completely lose it as soon as the weekend arrives.

• Sylvan Rand ... was there, he witnessed all the new styles and movements and protests of the last five decades, and saw how the youngsters finally liberated themselves - and luckily for us, he finally decided to open his impressive archive to the public.

- more eloquent statements and visual awesomeness about ?youth? from the likes of: Trevor Jackson, Zuza Krajewska, Mike Blabac, The Internet, Gaurab Thakali, Kazuhiro Hori and many others...

Highlights of our Sound issue include… Peter Anderson… Regardless of what kind of music you’re into, it is more than likely that your idol - or, depending on your age, your idol’s idol - has been immortalized on a roll of black and white film by Anderson. He started to work at the NME shortly after he moved from Glasgow to London in the late 1970s, and later in his career delivered the goods for record labels (big and small) and publications such as Rolling Stone, The Face or I-D.

Eric White… Splitting the majority of his time between Los Angeles and New York, White blends New Hollywood myth-making with pop culture references and more than just a nod to the hyperrealist movement to create his very own narrative on modern Americana. The resulting paintings more than often tap into uncanny territories, as you feel that they’re just delivering snapshots of a higher plot driven by disorder, surveillance, and paranoia.

Conny Plank… Even before he built and founded the legendary recording studio “Connys Studio“ in the provincial backwaters of North Rhine-Westphalia in 1974, he had already proven himself to be a visionary at the mixing desk, with albums by Krautrock heavyweights such as Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster, Kraftwerk, and Neu! being rewarding examples of his craft.

Siren Kings … Siren Kings are members of a primarily Pasifika underground youth subculture, originating in Auckland, New Zealand, which gained popularity in the mid 2010s. The siren scene involves competitions where crews compete for the loudest and clearest sound produced by sirens, loudspeakers, or public address systems attached to cars or bicycles, to win the title of Siren King.

- plus more elaborate features and visual awesomeness from the likes of: Nik Nowak, Benoit Maubrey, Movies about Sound, Nate Langston Palmer, Maya Shenfeld, Edwin van der Heide. and many others.

The Icon Catalogue is a series of small A6 zines profiling 40 record labels in various dance music genres such as Techno, Drum & Bass, Jungle, UK Garage and Dubstep.

The latest issue is a 200-page trip through the past, present and future, with a focus on the early 2000s. Memories of the Y2K era are relived with features on Peter Yee, the former Oakley designer responsible for the Ellipse logo and many of the brand's most iconic moments, as well as Linus Nutland from Nike Server. Racing to the present, the heat gets hotter with a world-exclusive reveal of Salehe Bembury's latest New Balance colab starring on the cover, with closer looks at the 'Magma' and 'Lava' 1906Rs inside. If you flick to the inside back cover, you'll also get the scoop on the new Sneaker Freaker book. World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors is a stonking journey into the priceless stockpiles and obsessive minds of footwear aficionados. At over 750 pages, this is our biggest and most insane publishing project yet!

Amazing unseen image of Bikini Kill live at Cbgb in 1990, by Mike Galinsky -- the accompanying feature is a lengthy photo essay exploring indie-rock in the early 1990s, with tremendous behind-the-scenes, unpublished black-and-white film images of Sonic Youth, Unwound, Mary Timony, Sleepyhead, Half Japanese, and more. In addition to Luc Sante’s ridiculously good ‘Pinakothek’ column where he goes off on one image, we have: John Colpits AKA Kid Millions on Miles Cooper Seaton (rip); the forgotten brilliance of bluesy hip-hop pioneers New Kingdom; the tape column on new tape releases; Susan Bernofsky on her Robert Walser bio; The Clean's singer and guitarist David Kilgour on the long-awaited Stephen reissue plus a lot more; the enduring goofy excellence of ELO’s ‘Out of the Blue’; Legendary Japanese hardcore guitarist Zigyaku from Gudon talks with Takeshi from Boris for the ‘One on One’ column; a look at Peter Williams (rip)’s installation at Mocad; and strange and delightful vernacular dome-shaped roadside architecture, just because.

Also Featuring:

Michael Klausman on the great new age synth Christian hippie slowpop duo Planetary Peace; Sarah Cozort on the works and lasting influence of artworld heroes THE Guerilla Girls; RJ Smith investigates Endless Boogie on the eve of the release of what’s probably the year’s best record; Andy Beta on percussionist Valentina Magaletti; infamous Japanese hardcore punk guitarist Zigyaku interviewed by Takeshi of Boris; guitarist Sarah Louise gets down and spiritual with saxophonist Archie Shepp; Adam Woodhead chats with the storied (sorry) bookseller and publisher Aaron Cometbus; Australian writer Peter Doyle really lets loose on classic Country Drinkin’ Songs; Kelley Stoltz and David Buick in conversation with Echo and the Bunnymen’s Will Sergeant and Primal Scream’s Bobby Gillespie on the eve of Third Man Books’ publication of their debut memoirs; “New Narrative” alum Camille ROY interviewed by Sara Jaffe; and a solid selection of Christine SHIELDS’s genius fantasy face paintings. Whew.

We're back in print.

In 2019, after our 5th printed magazine, we switched to exploring the digital issue format. Successful as it was, we missed the handfeel of our work.

Today we are delighted to bring Techunter Magazine back offline.

Techunter 08 will be a new endeavor for our team. This is a new chapter of our history and it reflects our experience, gathered throughout all the years of operation, as well as everything cutting edge in the functional apparel industry and its community of today and tomorrow. We changed the concept for this new iteration, but the Techunter core is still there: we explore functional apparel, in very possible detail and nuance, sharing our findings with you.

Techunter 08 magazine will be launched this winter in Paris, and available through a range of different retailers around the world. We can't wait to show you our new magazine. Stay tuned for more updates and we thank you for your continuous support! – team Techunter.

Come and join us for the launch of the brand new issue of Lodown Magazine, guest-edited by Sandberg Instituut’s Master Programme Radical Cut-Up. Released at Stedelijk Book Club. Print! Press! Publish! 2018, taking place at the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam.

This time around, we are focussing on cut-up culture. Some might state it’s just a more sophisticated way to say that it’s based on stealing from others - which is actually true, yet this very movement cannot be pinned down by this simplification only. Copying from others and the art of de-contextualizing has a long history, it goes along with the age of industrialized reproduction that basically transcends everything of our life at any given moment.

We teamed up with the students and tutors of the Radical Cut-Up program at Amsterdam’s Sandberg Instituut to create this text-heavy and très heady manifest of a phenomenon that needs to be discussed.

Skin as manifold exterior. Skin as signifier. Skin as identifier. Skin as protector and delicate receptor for Vitamin D. The surface is deep, evidenced by the 32 million bacteria occupying each square inch of your arm. Altogether that’s, well, don’t worry about the total number on your body. It’s gross. Or rad. Like this very issue, which will hit your reality next week. Elaborate stories on Kit King, Alice Hawkins, Sage Elsesser, Till Rabus, Grizzly Bear, Andreas Demeter, Mike Blabac. And. So. Much. More. For. You. To. Discover.
