“OK, I’m going to tell you the real reason why clothes have to be properly pressed – because any wrinkle or stain or spot or gooey spill on your trousers is a message, and each message is subliminal conditioning from space aliens trying to overthrow the Capitalist system.”

New Limited Edition 3" CDR Retrospective


To celebrate Mannlicher Carcano’s 25th continuous year as an improvisational audio collage group, and the discovery of an unopened stack of recordable 3” mini CDs in a dumpster in Glendale, CA (artist's rendering above), redacted records is pleased to announce the release of a numbered limited edition of 50 mp3 mini CDs containing over 3 ½ hours of Mannlicher Carcano recordings spanning 1987 to 2012, including many of Mannlicher’s most beloved recordings, various out-of-print rarities, and several previously unissued gems...

Oct 6, 2012 (2 hours)

Oct 13, 2012 (2hours)

Since the MCRH has moved back to Saturday afternoons, I am now able to consolidate each 2-hour show into a single downloadable link (I was unable to do so when our show spanned 2 days - Tuesday 11pm to midnight and Wednesday midnight to 1am). If interested parties prefer Mannlicher in 1-hour chunks, let me know and I will continue to divide our weekly shows in half. As before, you must download each show within a month of broadcast as they will be removed from the CHMR server (to make room for more Mannlicher Carcano Radio Hour episodes). Enjoy! Ph

This is pretty amazing - some one name of kengorsky made a video for the lead track off our Crawl To Safety album and posted it on youtube about a year and a half ago. I just stumbled across it, so check it out -- definitely stuck in the MC aesthetic groove!

Last Week This Week (copiously illustrated!)


Here are links to the September 27th edition of the Mannlicher Carcano Radio Hour: Hour 1 and Hour 2. At least I think they're the 27th. Porter said "last week's show" so I'm assuming. Perhaps this diagram will help.

1. Abasiophilia: attraction to leg braces or other orthopedic appliances
2. Harpaxophilia: sexual excitement from being a robbery victim might prevent a robbery.
3. Vorarephilia: sexual attraction to being eaten whole
4. Hobophilia: sexual fantasies about hobos
5. Tripsolagnia: arousal from having your hair shampooed by someone else
6. Axillism: desire to have sex in the armpit
7. Symphorophilia: sexual arousal from witnessing accidents
8. Agalmatophilia: sexual attractions to mannequins or statues
9. Chelonaphilia: you like turtles
10. Apotemnophilia: arousal from the idea of amputating a healthy limb
11. Formicophilia: desire to have insects crawl on genitalia

The Missing Hyperlink, Flautist...

Clutching a bone between her knees! The LA feed for today's special Weekend edition show was such a scorcher that I had to upload an edited version of it to share with the People. That is Dr. Pityface stealing the halo of The Missing Hyperlink, making her debut on the Mannlicher Carcano Radio Hour. Here's the not missing hyperlink, it's about a 35 minute mp3 file: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=8BAFRHT8. This is Really Happening.

Simultaniety Unravelled! New RH Solo LP!


Tonight, May 28, 2011, as part of the SOUNDS LIKE...AUDIO ART FESTIVAL, Mannlicher Carcano will be performing a special 1 hour version of the Radio Hour from the AKA Gallery in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

aka gallery
424 20th St. W.
Saskatoon, SK
May 27- 28, 2011

2011 will mark the beginning of an annual juried audio art festival hosted by AKA. Sounds Like… aims to bring together artists from across the country and beyond to share their work and processes. The festival's title references both simile and charades, speaking to the performative and interdisciplinary aspects of the work to be examined here. Along those lines, the inaugural year of the festival will examine various ways in which the movement and actions of a performer relate to the auditory content.

Joshua Fraser - Calgary, AB
Lief Hall, - Vancouver, BC
Constantine Katsiris - Vancouver, BC
Alain Lefebvre – Montreal, QC
Ellen Moffat and Jeff Morton – Saskatoon and Regina, SK
Jeff Morton – Regina, SK
Porter Hall – St. John’s, NL
Erin Sexton – Montreal, QC
VYXSYMS (Jon Vaughn, Will Kaufhold, Mehta Youngs)– Saskatoon, SK

The Los Angeles portion will be broadcast from the opening of Tel/Art/Phone a group show at the Beacon Arts Building based on the communication breakdown party game Telephone, to which Mannlicher contributed a regrooved LP in a sleeve by hack artist Doug Harvey.

BEACON ARTS BUILDING
808 N. La Brea Ave.
Inglewood, CA


This event also serves as the release party for the new Really Happening solo double CD set (5th in a projected series of 10, in this case featuring Kenneth Friendliness and George Garrison) "This is Really Happening Vol 5: TQBFJOaLD" which is available for free download here.

Cloudknitter mando-bell solo

New Mannlicher Carcano adjunct member Cloudknitter braved the torrential rainstorms currently engulfing the City of Angels to record a Saturday session in the audio dungeon, simultaneously recording the performance for his own radio art program in Belgium. I'll get those mp3s encoded and uploaded as swift as I am able, but in the meantime, check out his website for more info on his show and other remarkable projects.

Update: File is now available for DL here. The excellent jam is sandwiched between two interview segments, the more interesting of which is the beginning segment in which Cloudknitter discusses his artwork and radio show. It will be available for a couple of weeks only, so grab it now.

New Los Angeles segment/Really Happening Solo CD


The LA elements of the weekly broadcast have been prerecorded for the last few weeks, including a 2-hour solo performance this last Saturday by Really Happening containing elements of "Dr Earl A Goldsmith Tells Your Daughter About Sex" which is available for free download for a limited time split into 2 separate files: Part 1: "Not the Cubbyhole!(TM)" and Part 2: The Words are Used.

The complete performance will constitute This is Really Happening Vol 2, which will be a two-CDR set, also available from Pleonasm & Redacted, and the second in a planned 10-volume Retrospective.

Pleonasm partnering with Free Music Archive in Synergistic Triumph!

Just an update that free online record label Pleonasm Music has been posting its wares on the prestigious Free Music Archive, including their slightly garbled (but more than complete) version of Crawl to Safety with Mannlicher Carcano, Solo tour de force This is Really Happening Volume 1, and occasional collaborator Nic Waterman's histrionic tirade My Majority. Longtime listeners will already have all these loaded on their portable personal stereo music players, but even first time callers will find that the great thing about the new format is that you can sample any track from the dozens of other sonic innovators on Pleonasm's roster before committing to a full download. Hooray!

New Time, New Station, Recent Pix!


OK, No time for chitchat. The Mannlicher Carcano Radio Hour has moved to a new timeslot for the first time in 12 years! Listeners and participants may now tune/skype in on Tuesday nights from 11:00 PM till 1:00 AM Newfoundland time (9:30 pm to 11:30 pm EST; 6:30 - 8:30 Pacific) at CHMR (That's MCRH spelled backwards! Mere coincidence?) 93.5 FM, campus and community radio in St. John's Newfoundland. Streaming online at http://mp3srv.munsu.mun.ca/hi.pls

The Trent Radio iteration Dog Bites Mannlicher will move operations to coincide, and it looks like CFRU will be doing likewise.

As you can see, we have finally recovered our 2-hour format, and the show closes the broadcast day in NFLD, so it may go on from there even! The first broadcast is archived online in two separate files here and here.

Satan Temporarily Welcomes Mannlicher Carcano to His Bosom

Our most recent art gallery gig has turned into a residency of sorts, it seems! After our performance on the evening of August 20th at Human Resources, artist Gustavo Hererra was so taken by the manner in which Mannlicher's debris -- multiple turntables, a bin of weird old records, a battered trumpet and toy piano, a dismantled portable 8-Track player and tape selection, a two-stringed child's electric guitar and amp, etc -- blended in with his installation The Birth of Satan, he invited us to leave our equipment in place, and perform the radio show from that locale for the duration of the exhibit's run!

Although the logistics have proven tricky -- the gallery has no land line for a telephone link, and with Porter's recent relocation to St. John's NFLD the tension is becoming less and less palpable -- the LA performances have been righteous and scintillating. The actual gig on the 20th added a dozen or so new collaborators to our constantly expanding roster, bringing the total to 665 - and wherever 665 are gathered in His name.... Our most recently recruited regular was christened "Kenneth Friendliness" and rocked the electric Pepperoncini jar, which he has done for each subsequent radio show as well.

This most recent Saturday Christ's Cumming II also brought in a modified 3-gallon plastic diddly-bow, Herr Schurdt graced us with the presence of his SKYPE-capable laptop (though unfortunately Porter couldn't get into the new radio station) and Buddy Holy, Barney Panicker, and The Jock all arrived five minutes after the show ended. I'll try and upload images of all this, but I left my camera, along with my glasses, both audio recorders (the one I dropped in the toilet at the Museum of Jurassic Technology last year was miraculously resurrected last week! So there's like a QUAD version of the most recent performance - a humdinger - in their collective memory) a fancy USB mic, and a bunch of other valuable electronics in a canvas sack in the basement of a nearby gallery. I'm going to retrieve it today - hope everything's still there! In the meantime, please enjoy these recently rediscovered images from our last North American Tour.

Live at Human Resources


In conjunction with Gustavo Herrera's Birth of Satan exhibition, Human Resources presents a performance of Ghost Assisted Drawings as performed by Christian Cummings and Michael Decker, and Mannlicher Carcano's record release for This Is Really Happening Volume 1 on Pleonasm Music. The evening starts at 9pm, and admission is Free! It is rumored that Gustavo Herrera will be elating us with some of his prosaic fineries...
