YONG YONG

(Night School / Portugal)

Yong Yong are a duo from Lisbon, Portugal comprising Rodolfo Brito & Francisco Silva. Originally released on cassette, 'Love' is their debut release and is now available in an altered, re-worked version for the LP release. A warped excursion into outsider electronics, 'Love' drifts in and out of inner ear consciousness using a multi-technique language which Yong Yong can definitively say is their own. Beginning their recorded career with abstract drone music, Yong Yong have since widened their scope; communicating a slanted perspective of a whole slew of contemporary musics. Samples and degraded electronics, the aesthetics of crumbling form, and pop music turned in on itself are mixed into a vortex which still manages to be underpinned by a melancholic sense of melody. Both experimental and populist, 'Love' is the result of high and low culture smelted down into a miasmic, evocative mercury. A fluid experience where nothing is at seems and that's how it should be

BEAR BONES LAY LOW

(Venezuela/Belgium)

Hailing from Venezuela, now based in Belgium, Ernesto González makes music as Bear Bones, Lay Low. Active since a teenager in the Belgian noise underground, González’s music has evolved from spontaneous bedroom noise/drone explorations to colorfully psychedelic electronic music where analog synthesis meets fuzzed-out guitar freak outs and entrancing rhythms. He has also been part of psychedelic jam band Sylvester Anfang II since 2006 and is part of numerous musical projects including the drone duo González & Steenkiste (with Sylvester Anfang II bandmate Hellvete) and Sayona, a freeform dark electronics collaboration with Shazzula of Black Mass Rising and formerly of psych head bangers Aqua Nebula Oscillator. Bear Bones, Lay Low has released music in various formats and labels such as Gipsy Sphix, Young Girls Records, Sloow Tapes, Cabin Floor Esoterica, Full Of Nothing and KRAAK, who released his latest LP « El Telonero » in 2012
