MAGASIN 4 PRESNTS :PHARMAKON (US) (Experimental - Harsh Noise)
Margaret Chardiet is an interdisciplinary sound artist born and based in New York City. Raised by underground musicians and artists, Margaret was surrounded by a collective of the city’s impassioned, cultural detritus. Instead of following a path of higher education, she began the experimental project Pharmakon in 2006, at the age of 16. Pharmakon as a project, entity, and process, has evolved and exists in true protean form, developing alongside (or more so within) Margaret’s personal experience and auto-didactic philosophies. Her work as a whole is a forced self-possession, a celebration of ferality and viscereality, which performatively abandons a society that has never accepted anything it couldn’t also exploit. Chardiet uses electronic synthesis as a tool to transfer this self-possession physiologically and intra-spatially into the bodies of their audience. Timbre becomes temper. Ferality, a social contagion or biorhythm. Margaret has also played in numerous punk groups that extend out to a greater international D.I.Y. music community, and has composed score and original music for the films Transfiguration (2017), and Sound of Metal (2019).
KOLLAPS (AUS) (Electronic - Industrial)
Until The Day I Die is Kollaps’ third LP for Cold Spring Records. The record, set for release in June 2022, is merciless and visceral assault on the senses and continues the trajectory of the band’s idiosyncratic approach in their creation of sound. Until The Day I Die is an uncompromising force of harsh post-industrial music narrated by overarching themes of condemnation and redemption; violence, romanticism, sexuality, and addiction. Much of the creation and lyrical conceptualisation of the record has been stylised and presented by the use of William S. Burroughs’ cut-up method.
LANA DEL RABIES (US) (Electronic - Experimental)
Lana Del Rabies is a captivating force in underground dark electronic and the fringes of heavy music. Her distinct blend of industrial, gothic noise, and experimental metal delves into the esoteric brutality of human existence in a world overshadowed by the threat of apocalypse.
Renowned for her intense and immersive live performances, Lana Del Rabies masterfully holds audiences in captive catharsis. The music outcries from beyond, revealing surprising melodic and melancholic moments within the tumult of noise and anguish.
THE EUROSUITE (UK) (No Wave / Post Punk / Noise Rock)
The Eurosuite formed at the tail end of 2019. Sharing an ethos of “first idea, best idea” the band have now released 3 full length LPs into the wild, “Hot Off Depress” (A Tant Rêver Du Roi (FR), 2020), “Sorry” (Human Worth (UK), 2023) and now “Totally Fine” (Human Worth, 2024).
Perhaps unsurprisingly for a band featuring members of Screen Wives, USA Nails and Nitkowski, The Eurosuite summon a feral danceable cacophony, falling somewhere between synth-punk, noise-rock and no-wave. Woozy synths with dentist drill guitars, (mostly) one handed drumming and FX drenched vocals. This
