This must have been discussed before, but what do people think of Bernard Paganotti's Paga? See Ground and Sky Review: CLICK

I'm pretty sure he is on our cleared artist list, I know I voted yes for the addition. So I don't see a problem with this.

massive bump on the most important thread in existence

Jannick Top isn't listed here and his compilation isn't listed among Magma's albums. Is it worth starting another artist page even though we can't add studio albums to it? He released one single - Utopia Viva - and then later added it to a compilation - Soleil d'Ork - also featuring some alternate studio versions of tracks, including the full version of musique des spheres and a track featuring Blazquiz and Vander. more or less my favourite "album" and it's not even here ;P

I'd be happy to write the bio if Top were approved for addition, but I'm sure I wouldn't be at the front of the queue.

Had much luck with Angherr Shisspa, james? I recently listened to 2[ni] [or whatever other like to call it]. Still need more listens to make concrete comparisions.


Does anyone have a copy of this? I would be very interested in hearing some thoughts, sounds amazing.

Utopic Sporadic Orchestra

This a short article I wrote to inform all the Magma fans of a side-project of Magma that has been rarely discussed:
UTOPIC SPORADIC ORCHESTRA .
Written by Jerome Schmidt
If you know more about it (or better if you have any recording of this), PLEASE, contact me!
Based on infos given by Olivier Fromentin, Jean Martin and Marquee Magazine #048 (one advice: buy it!).     


The Utopic Sporadic Orchestra has been founded for just one gig in 1975-1976 for a Jazz Fest (Nancy Jazz Pulsations), that is to say in my hometown, even if I was not yet borned...

It consisted of a huge orchestra which played De Futura during 40 minutes! Wow... From this show, there are only 2 minutes broadcasted on the local TV (which I don't have) and also the complete concert on audio tape but noone has it except the jazz fest chief who doesn't want to give it anyway:(( Believe me, I try to have it but...

So it consisted of the following musicians and the list is REALLY impressive:

Bass
Janick Top (MAGMA)
Marc Berteaux
Tony Bonfils (HAMSA)
Bernard Paganotti (MAGMA)

Contrabass
Didier Levallet (Perception)
Barre Philps

Guitar
V. Raux (HAMSA)
'Gorutz' (MAGMA)
Christian Escoude (CONFLUENCE)
Fred Frith (HENRY COW)

Keyboards
Gerard Bikialo (MAGMA)
Francois Cahen (ZAO)
Michel Graillier (MAGMA)
Siegfried Kessler (PERCEPTION)

Drums
Christian Vander (MAGMA)
Bernar Lubat (pre-Compagnie Lubat)
Andre Ceccarelli (Yvan JULIEN Orchestra)
Pierre Moerrlin (Percussions de STRASBOURG)
Jean-My Truong (ZAO)

Vibraphone
Robert Wood

Violin/cello
Jean Charles Capon (CONFLUENCE)
ZB. NAMYLOWSKI (POLISH ALL STARS)
Claudine Lasserre (QUATUOR MARGAND)
Alto
Francoise Douchet (QUATUOR MARGAND)

Violin
Michele Margand (QUATUOR MARGAND)
Marie-Frabce Viaud (QUATUOR MARGAND)
Didier Lockwood (MAGMA)

Saxophone & Flute
Yochk'o Seffer (PERCEPTION)
Teddy Lasry (ex MAGMA)
Richard Raux (HAMSA)

Trumpet
Louis Toesca (ex MAGMA)

Vocal
Stella Vander (MAGMA)

I managed to acquire Koenjihyakkei's Ni (aka Viva Koenji!) on CD, but have yet to listen to it.  I'm still hopelessy waiting for Angherr Shisspa to turn up in the post... I may have to e-mail about that again.  If it doesn't arrive, I'll get my money back and try and get it elsewhere.

Thanks for this.  Looking for Archaia, Dun (upload appreciated) and the other Magma ones I need as we speak.

Probably my favourite sub-genre. That is a very good start, which covers a lot of ground.

Ok some suggestions for bands you have already listened to.

Eider Stellaire - second album is a must, their third is quality sometime thought of as lounge Zeuhl. There best material comes from their unreleased live material. If you can track it down I think you will be very happy.

Koejihyakkei's 2 (ni) is nearly to the standard of Ahngerr Shispawhere, some rank it as their best.

Magma still has plenty of fine releases for you to check out. Such as:
- Christian Vander - "Wurdah Ïtah"
- Live/Hhaï (Köhntark)
- Retrospektïw I-II
- Theusz Hamtaahk - Trilogie

plus many other live releases.

Next are some other bands you should be checking out if you enjoy the genre.

Potemkine - I would suggest starting with their album Triton, they play a jass-fusion based Zeuhl.
     
Pseu - A later day Zeuhl album, which relives the glory days. Think a modern day 4 visions.

Archaia - An essentail, through hard to track down. Haunting masterpiece somewhere between Krautrock, electronics, tribal and Zeuhl.

Dun - Everyone I have talked to has been rapt with this album, while the Zeuhl influences are evident, probably closer to the RIO sound.

I think that sound be enough the sink your teeth into for now. If you need any more information on any of these recommendations feel free to PM me.

I've recently gotten a craving for Zeuhl that is still not yet quenchable.  Thanks to most of those blogspot links posted on pg 77 (and http://zeuhlmusic.blogspot.com/), I've been able to satisfy myself.  So far, I've acquired:

Eider Stellaire - I
Eskaton - 4 Visions
Happy Family - Happy Family
Kultivator - Barndomes Stigar
Magma - Kobaia
               - 1001 Degrees
               - MDK
               - Kohntarkoz
               - K.A
               - Live
               and several boots
Mosaic - Ultimatum
Ruins - Pallascthom
            - Symphonica
Shub Niggurath - Les Mort Vonte Vite
                              - (1st cassette)
Weidorje- s/t

Koejihyakkei - Ahngerr Shispa


where should I go next?

NYC? You probably mean their show in Nearfest (PA).
 
You can see it here I think:
 
 
 


No, they're playing a club in NYC called Club Europa the 23rd.  I guess that means they play the 24th at nextfest.

Oh, nice! Then I get a chance to see them after all.
In any case it will probably be the same lineup as the on in Nearfest

James MacGaw, guitar
Emmanuel Borghi, keyboards
Antoine Paganotti, vocals
Himiko Paganotti, vocals
Stella Vander, vocals
Isabelle Feuillebois, vocals
Benoמt Alziary, vibraphone
"
 
 
 
EDIT - And Hawkwind as well:

Is Weidorje's album still available on CD?  I think I may grab a copy if so.

I was listening to Potemkine last night. Potemkine has an interesting history, started by two brothers inspired by Mahavishnu and the Fusion wave, they were later joined by their other two brothers. Triton features all 4 and contains more leanings to the contemporary classical than fusion, which i personally enjoy more than the fusion/zeuhl of the two EPs Foetus and Mysterie/Rictus, parts of which are included in Triton.


Triton i quite like and is a more contemplative form of zeuhl than the energy driven Eider and Eskaton. Triton has depth and I need to listen to more.... Something I keep finding whenever I put on one of the cd's I acquired at the festival... I played the Slapp Happy/Henry Cow Desperate Straights album for the first time since the train to Paris after the concert and had forgotten how good it was!

I've yet to hear Dun, so I need that album!  It's not fair.

I do have all of Potemkine's albums, but not on CD, I'll have to give them another listen before deciding how much I need them (well, Triton anyhow).

I only know one Eskaton album too.  These albums  desparately need re-releasing, so it's  a shame the  master tapes have been lost.  Ouch
