Herd Of The Ether Space - Kumquat Over Again

Kumquat Over Again

by Herd Of The Ether Space

1 Caused By A Germ Transmission
2 Kumquat Jelly
3 Jellied Quat Kum
4 Germinated From A Transmitted Cause

The cassette album "Kumquat Over Again" was released by Taped Rugs Productions and Sound Of Pig Music in 1990.

Tracks 1 and 4 were created from improvisations recorded by Herd Of The Ether Space (HOTES) members Charles Rice Goff III, Killr "Mark" Kaswan, and Robert Silverman on January 28th, 1990. Tracks 2 and 3 were created from improvisations recorded by HOTES members George Gibson, Charles Rice Goff III, and Killr "Mark" Kaswan on March 18th, 1990. All four tracks were recorded at the Taped Rugs Studio in Oakland, California.

To create the Kumquat Over Again cassette album, Goff used a four track cassette recorder to juxtapose (forwards vs. backwards) two different stereo segments of equal length from the January 28th session and two different stereo segments of equal length from the March 18th session onto a single tape. Goff then played the first "side" of the tape on the four track recorder to mix the forwards and backwards parts together onto a regular stereo cassette deck. He individually panned and varied the input levels of the four tracks during the mixdown. He then turned the tape over and performed the same mixing technique on the second "side" of the cassette. Thus, side one of Kumquat Over Again is, in theory, the opposite of side two. However, because the two sides were mixed individually, they are not exact opposites.

Some specifics:

1 The vibrant tang and Vitamin C punch of kumquats often served as a propellant for HOTES recording sessions. At the March 18th session, however, they also served as a subject for the group's Dadaesque improvised vocal bits. The potent kumquat fuel, in fact, had a near-explosive effect on the band during this session, and the walls of cacophony exhibited in these recordings have often overwhelmed listeners.

2 Other recordings created on January 28th, 1990, were later included on the HOTES cassette album: "President Nixon Fights The Dope Scourge," archived at:

3 The following is the description of Kumquat Over Again from the Taped Rugs Productions 1990 catalog:

"For the totally nonserious, some core members of the Herd (Kaswan, Gibson, Goff, Silverman) slosh through germ transmissions and jellied quat kum in a sort of Warholish tribute to bizarreness. Each side of the tape contains both forward and backward material, which can be listened to in either direction, depending on which side of the tape is in the cassette deck. A good deal of attention is paid to a particular little orange fruit throughout the work. C-90"

Neon Dumpster - Fuck Art Let's Steal

"Statues and paintings there were, all of fiendish subjects and some executed by St. John and myself. A locked porfolio, tanned in human skin, held certain unknown and unnamable drawings which it was rumored Goya had perpetrated but dared not acknowledge. There were nauseous musical instruments,stringed, brass and wood-wind, on which St. John and I sometimes produced dissonances of exquisite morbidity and cacodaemoniacal ghastliness; whilst in a multititude of inlaid ebony cabinets reposed the most incredible and unimaginable variety of tomb-loot ever assembled by human madness and perversity. It is of this loot in particular that I must not speak - thank God I had the courage to destroy it long before I thought of destroying myself!."1 Martin 08:17

"1. Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State.
2. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected.
3. The art of war, then, is governed by five constant factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations, when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
4. These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth; (4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

5,6. The Moral Law causes the people to be in complete accord with their ruler, so that they will follow him regardless of their lives, undismayed by any danger.

7. Heaven signifies night and day, cold and heat, times and seasons.
8. Earth comprises distances, great and small; danger and security; open ground and narrow passes; the chances of life and death.

9. The Commander stands for the virtues of wisdom, sincerely, benevolence, courage and strictness.

10. By method and discipline are to be understood the marshaling of the army in its proper subdivisions, the graduations of rank among the officers, the maintenance of roads by which supplies may reach the army, and the control of military expenditure.

11. These five heads should be familiar to every general: he who knows them will be victorious; he who knows them not will fail."

"_Utopia_ comes programmed to operate through protocols not unlike those defined by the software of computer systems. What constitutes its "software" lies in the parerga, the large body of interpretive letters and commendatory endorsements from leading humanists. William T. Cotton finds therein "A license for extrapolation beyond any of the circumstances and events of the _Utopia_ [which] is granted by the humanists' own practice in the epistles and commendatory verses -- e.g. Giles's creation of the Utopian language and samples of verse in the Utopian language."[65] Packaged with its own RFC's (Requests for Comments), as gathered by its editor Erasmus, _Utopia_ constitutes a system open to new applications. For example, the parerga accompanying subsequent editions changed, as interpretive "how-to-read-the-text" commentaries were replaced by new ones. This rewriting of _Utopia_'s software evidenced such "decentralized innovation" Erasmus even replaced More's own letter explaining the text with one written by Bude. Wootton speculates Erasmus preferred Bude's explication because "Bude's reference to Pythagoras makes clear that he had traced _Utopia_ to its source in Erasmus's discussion of the Pythagorean adages on friendship," particularly the adage "Between friends is all common."[66] Erasmus' role in coordinating changes to the text constitutes "forking," a situation in which "a project led in one direction splits and develops in two or more directions." [67] History's first "hacker," Erasmus changed _Utopia_'s code, in Lessig's terms enabling "the program to do something it wasn't originally intended or enabled to do."[68] Hackers, unlike their evil alter egos, crackers, work to debug and thus improve a program's functions. While Erasmus probably had More's permission to make this substitution, apparently he made another, unauthorized, forking in changing the title from _Nusquama_ to _Utopia_.[69] As "the patron saint of networkers," a conduit for a "networked tribe" operating like an early modern ARPAnet, Erasmus presided over an enterprise so communal even the author-function was distributed among its members.[70]"

O nly Recently, did God decide to make the knowledge made known to me, and I realized that Royalty and kingdom, with every man who is consecrated at justice and truth looks not at your religion, but the metaphysics that is in you, then, many atheists, will enter Paradise, and many religious, will be cast out! All those who do not go up to Jerusalem to worship God? Will be punished! Two tragedies worldwide, will be deferred and The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son again . This may be the passion of the Christ's Passion: He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds,We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth;he was not hungry so instead
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth because he was not hungry and did not like lamb or sheep to eat for supper.

What is this that isnt the first of the infinite perfections? We can not understand infinity! But without freedom and the freedoms of the will of of the willing there could be no trial. Yet the proceedings will be there! Lucifer has done wrong to become Satan. And now, he knows to be under destruction and wants to avenge the crimes of man!!! . But men are not without fault, while are in the land of lies and deceit? why not me? Is not important religion but the relationship with God, whose essence is identical with justice and truth? For this even atheists can find salvation. God allowed this terrible human condition, because he was eager to share his own divine nature over nurture philosophy? In this system, he is responsible. But not guilty? Whre and when does the trial begin? seigniorage when the cannibals have ate his son? The best of all men, good as the golden cow who was carried from the sodoms? What about the ebola virouses trying to kick man off the surface? Now, he has spread HIV in Africa, and now wants to destroy a whole continent!
True meaning of the "genome",does this have the right to the manufactures of iron, found in the "coal fossil" or have they have lied to you about everything! The news of strategic importance for the control of your mind? Perception of reality is wrong you has! You're going fast to the third war, a nuclear world with China, to justify the inevitable collapse of the International Monetary Fund! No funding from me please with or without the deaths and the taxes!

The Druids - Drentex

"Deleuze writes that dividuals in control societies are not shaped by molds, which produce distinct individuals, but consist of modulations of coded information. That is, dividuation involves something like a "moving form" of coding (continuous decoding and recoding). A mold, Deleuze writes, is a distinct casting, whereas a modulation is like a "self-deforming cast that will continuously change from one moment to the other, or like a sieve whose mesh will transmute from point to point."[17] If individuation produces units that have a distinct casting, dividuation produces the flexible modules of control (the parameters) through which they pass. As an economic process, dividuation serves the demands of postmodern global Capital for flexible modes of production and consumption [18]. When Amazon.com recommends books for customers to buy based on information stored in its database, or when global corporations abandon Taylorist forms of control based on the individuation of confined bodies in favor of outsourcing and informated production strategies, they use the tools of dividuation, i.e., parametric controls, internal adjustments of sampled information, continuous modulation.

Capital is a decoding machine.[19] A code is simply the form of repetition of some process (e.g., the translation of words in a language, the conversion of money into goods, the sorting of statuses into ranks, bodies into categories, etc.). Decoding unlocks the economic value of repetitive processes, and it is the basis of capitalist control of accumulation. Baudrillard writes, for example, how the code of fashion in capitalist societies is simply the repetition of the newest model.[20] As soon as one model emerges on the market, it is decoded and replaced by a newer one. Foucault describes prisons as assemblages that decode delinquency, and biopower as a system that decodes life.[21] We are all familiar today with genetic science as a decoding machine linked to global capitalism that promises to accomplish for the body what advertising does for fashion. Here we have one of the best examples of the abandonment of strategies of individuation in favor of continuous modulation. Having broken the molecular code of human individuation, genetic science proceeds to experiment on its parameters. Dividuals are like the newest fashions, the "latest" individuals, recycled hybrid forms with recombinable parts, easily reconfigured, hot items today, obsolete tomorrow."

In the seventeenth chapter of the Vendidad, there is a prescription devoted to pairings of nails and clippings of hair, which as soon as they are separated from the body, belong to the Evil One as abodes of uncleanliness. Hair and nails taken from the dead are mentioned in the fable of how Zoroaster converted the royal family to the new doctrine, and how he escaped a plot against his life. According to the story, courtiers hid bones in his room, together with hair and nails robbed from the dead. Accused of wizardry, Zoroaster was condemned to be hung. At this moment the king's horse fell sick; its legs had entered its body. "Free me," said the prophet, "and I'll restore one leg." Freedom was granted, and the leg came forth. "Lord," said Zoroaster, "if thou wilt embrace my creed, I will restore the second leg." After the king's conversion, the two remaining legs were also restored, but only after the rest of the royal family and his court had become Zoroastrians.

we must think like atheists but we must love and honor the Gods in your hearts. You wanted to play the King and the kong of Israelites , in my place instead? ? Certainly, as my brother max-major, you are more worthy than me! But what is important is not the King or the kngs , but the third temple to the glory for universal peacefullness if not just getting a piece once in a while. You want this? A simple piece of the pie or the cakes? You want to build a temple on the Mount of Olives? You want to destroy all mankind and keep for a few men's salvation, since many of you are: atheists, Satanists, Freemasons and believers in banking systemologies and capitalist enterprising methodologies? Brother! Religion should not divide the work for justice throughout the world also for atheists.You do insult to your God Instead it is worthy of being praised around the world and by all peoples and religions. Even atheists must come, Because Attracted by the universal unity that the temple is and one for the cakes.
Everyone knows that Jesus was born in Bethlehem but what of the kings and the kongs, the cakes and the cookie? In him, I was born in that: site, tribe and family. But I must not preach, because that is the job of a rabbi. I have to fight for the Kingdom as David. Because the task of a king is to use the sword, like David: live or die! If God is with me? I live and I will succeed! So successful, that the whole world will admire these cakes! If God is not with me? Still One Alleluia for each man and 1/2 for a child 1/3 for the retarded !
Segnalato come spam Daniel, right: with all the hatred that exists in the world against what the normal amount is that is morally accepted by all mankind, as his representative who declares this ? Yes Indeed, the King of Israel ? and also the first president of the metaphysical whole human race? That is, the defender of all oppressed peoples from seigniorage banking and Mason himself, and how many named mason? . Because in truth, all peoples and religions of the world will go up to worship God on the Mount of Olives.
Sure, she says the fox,the wolf and the otter, when he can not reach the grapes! You have missed the first train and now risk losing the second train, If you can not build the Temple and interested in my Christian doctrines? Zero Alleluia!

Cinematery - Shotguns And Dead Daisies (2009)

Sit back, pray to any god you think will listen, because you're about
to meet your maker. This is a selection of OLD Cinematery. This is
from the golden years of medicated music for the soul. Most of this
music was recorded by yelling over a keyboard pre-recorded to memory
banks into a tape recorder and then recorded to the computer via
microphone... Please excuse the quality. The name "Shotguns and Dead
Daisies" came from an old Christian magazine with lame lines
like,"You're going to see Shotguns and Dead Daisies' show? I heard
they eat live goldfish on stage." My personal guess is it was around
the time Marilyn Manson was making waves and parents were using scare
tactics to scare kids into thinking they were going to hell. - Skot, cofounder of Pha-Q Phono and the one who arranged and selected tracks for the album.

Yeah, the magazine was called "Breakaway", and they even castigated
Stryper for not being Christian enough. FUCKING STRYPER. I was given a
stack of them by my frequently Satanically panicked mom when I was in
high school. I read them just to have more reasons to hate
Christianity, and found that I wasn't disappointed. Ever since, I've
wanted to do something and call it "Shotguns And Dead Daisies" (named
after the fictitious, goldfish-sacrificing band of dumb,
devil-worshipping rock n' roll thugs described in the aforementioned
magazine during a story about temptation, in which a kid is invited to
see these guys play. SO, now this collection of years-old, virtually
unreleased Cinematery tracks takes that name. That's right, assholes.
You inspired me. - Kyle, cofounder of Pha-Q and the maniac who
did this "music"

01 - Intro
02 - Happy Song
I was living with my aunt and uncle after having been kicked to the
left by a houseful of Christian Identity Nazis, kicked to the right by
a compound full of Phish-loving neo-hippie assholes, and fucked in the
ass every which way by psychiatry. I was probably still going through
some withdrawals when I did this mockery of all those who were pissed
about the fact that I was so pissed off (some of whom are now more
doomsday than I was then, thanks to the current political and economic
situation). My little cousin was in the room with his dad through most
of this recording and innocently began singing along, though, for some
reason, this isn't audible in the recording.
03 - We're A Happy Family
This is my Ramones cover. Yep.
04 - Imaginary Love Song, Part Zero
This song sounds really deep, but it's not. It's about being lonely,
horny, and quite perverted.
05 - Assassin Of Youth
Sounds too much like Devo, but I like Devo, so whatever. I just wish I
wasn't so smug back then. I've made better statements since I've
realized the true extent to which everyday life can degrade me. Also,
it's a bit repetitive. I've done far better, but even far worse as
well.
06 - My Own Private Auschwitz
Here is one of the songs that caused a gay folkie icehead to refer to
my stuff as "death blues". The transfer is fuckin' awful, but, oh,
well. There are in fact far worse transfers of my stuff than this, at
least.
07 - Dead Sexy
I like to think up movie ideas (though it doesn't look like I'll ever
get to make them into movies - I'll hope I'm wrong). Anyway, this is
my electro-psychobilly rendition of one of my movie ideas, a
necrophiliac sex comedy.
08 - Play The Victim
This is my pop-punk song. While most people prefer pop-punk, I get a
nasty bile-gurgle in my stomach when I hear the term. So if you like
my not-so-pop-punk stuff, don't be alarmed. I dare say it's some of
the punkest fuckin' pop-punk you will hear.
09 - Daddy's Little Girl
Shedding the pop, speeding up the tempo, dirtying the vocals even
further; compare this hardcore shit with the pop-punk that precedes
it.
10 - Whips And Chains
Now, a complete 360 off into some dark, evil-sounding torture-tech. I
was more unfocused then than I am now. All of these elements have
become infused closer and closer (and have branched out into nastier
and nastier abysses) as time has gone on.
11 - Adolf Hitler, Car Salesman
Out of all the tracks featured here, this is the oldest (circa 2002).
Do keep in mind that I had been doing my stuff since middle school
(which was in the mid 1990s), and all of this once began with me
playing around with a keyboard in elementary school, trying to make my
own horror movie scores. Also, I was using a keyboard for this that
makes even the Casio I used on the others sound high-tech, during a
time of deadly serious medication withdrawal, because this came from
the year that I stopped taking my psychiatric meds. If you've heard
Banned In 31 Flavors' smash hit (heh heh) called "Let's Fuck", you may
notice that some keyboard parts here sound familiar. This is because
"Let's Fuck" came together around when I was fucking around with the
KeyTar during a BI31F session and tried seeing if I could still play
this. Oh, yeah, and one more thing: I know I was pronouncing "Adolf"
the wrong way. Oh, well.

Ice Breathing - Becoming Vegetable

New York State once produced 106 different kinds of apples, and each one looked and tasted different. This variety no doubt pleased apple-lovers, but it proved quite inefficient from the point of view of the market. It would be much more sensible if there were only three or four types of apple. Appearance and shelf-life would be important, but not flavour. In fact, favour must be eliminated because different people like different flavours. This is "irrational." If all apples taste alike and look alike, however, and if they all taste pretty much like raw potatoes and look like Jungian archetypes, then soon everyone will forget that apples ever tasted different. Most important in this process is image. The Apple has become part of the body of the Image, the global imaginaire, the universal unchanging mystical vortex of control, of hegemony, of separation. The Apple transcends the mere accidental bodies of random russets, winesaps, pippins, this windfall or that sour green one, good for pie, or this bruised one, good for cider. The wizards of genetics triumph, and soon there is only one pure Apple. New York State's orchards go to seed and are overgrown by scrub, or ripped out to build housing developments. Of the 106 varieties, how many survive?
