Taken From “Interstellar Fugitives” LP

Mastered at National Sound Corporation (NSC), Detroit

Underground Resistance is probably the most militantly political outcropping of modern urban American techno. Combining a grubby, four-track aesthetic, an almost strictly DIY business philosophy, and an oppositional, militaristic ethos similar to Public Enemy without the drama (or the familiarity; the members refuse to be photographed without bandanas obscuring their identities), UR have redirected their portion of the Detroit techno legacy to social activist ends, trading mainstream popularity and financial success for independence and self-determination. Begun in the early ’90s by Detroit second-wave trinity Mike Banks, Robert Hood & Jeff Mills, UR adapted the flavor and kick of early Detroit techno to the complex social, political, and economic circumstances in the wake of Reagan-era accelerated inner-city decline, and was formed as an outlet for uncompromising music geared toward awareness and change.

The early UR catalog is defined by a typically Detroit combination of Motown and Chicago soul, and ruthless, at times caustic lo-fi techno, acid, and electro (Mills’ background is in, among other things, Chicago industrial and EBM-style electro-techno, with Banks and Hood both coming from a solid house and techno base). Much of the label’s early output was the product of various permutations of Banks, Mills, and Hood, both solo and in combination, before Mills and Hood left UR in 1992 to pursue (and achieve) international success. Banks continued to operate UR in the wake of the split, releasing EPs such as “Return of Acid Rain,” “Message to the Majors,” and “Galaxy to Galaxy” under the UR banner, as well as 12-inches by increasingly renowned artists such as Drexciya, Suburban Knight and Scan 7. The first actual full-length credited to Underground Resistance was 1998’s Interstellar Fugitives. When the UR and Submerge Recordings Headquarters moved from 2030 Grand River to 3000 E Grand Blvd., the UR ‘family’ transformed again by assigning new members such as DJ 3000, S², Aquanauts, The, Buzz Goree and most notably the live band Los Hermanos.

Postcards from Beirut
The Pelago Time Capsule, 2010-2060

*Finissage e interramento della capsula

“Una capsula del tempo è un contenitore appositamente preparato per
conservare oggetti o informazioni destinate ad essere ritrovate in un’epoca
futura.
È un metodo per comunicare in modo unidirezionale con il futuro e non è da
confondersi con la macchina del tempo.”
da *Wikipedia*

*25 ingredienti per un pic-nic autarchico*

Ogni volta che la società del Ventesimo secolo si è sentita minacciata o in
pericolo, da conflitti mondiali ‘caldi’ o ‘freddi’ che fossero, da crisi
economiche o da altre congiunture negative le capsule del tempo hanno fatto
la loro comparsa.

Selezionare un certo numero di oggetti e manufatti meritevoli di essere
conservati e tramandati ai posteri è un atto presuntuoso e arbitrario che,
al di là di ogni intento dichiarato, racconta e svela l’identità sociale
degli autori.
Postcards from Beirut ha scelto di consegnare a chi aprirà la capsula tra 50
anni un possibile scenario.
Coltivando e combinando gli ingredienti contenuti nella capsula, seguendo
con attenzione le istruzioni fornite si potrà, nel giro di qualche mese,
gustare un pic-nic autoprodotto.
Come sarà Pelago quando la capsula verrà aperta? Quanto influiranno i
mutamenti climatici sull’ambiente locale?
Nel *worst-case-scenario* si tratterà di un pasto a base di piante ormai
estinte.

In occasione della mostra *Tuscany*, curata da Pier Luigi Tazzi alla
Fondazione Lanfranco Baldi di Pelago, Postcards from Beirut presenta *The
Pelago Time Capsule, 2010-2060*. La capsula, in acciaio inossidabile
estremamente resistente, interrata *il prossimo sabato 11 dicembre 2010* nel
corso di un evento speciale nel giardino della Fondazione Baldi. La capsula
rimarrà sepolta per 50 anni.

*”TUSCANY*: il nome di una regione italiana scritto in un’altra lingua,
un’isola che non c’è, una distorsione temporale in un universo parallelo, un
interno arredato con memorie del futuro o di un tempo senza dimensioni, una
piccola avventura in un’arte eretica, un ambiente a tre firme dentro uno
spazio saldamente ancorato ad un territorio di oggi. Sappiamo più o meno da
dove arriviamo, ma non dove siamo diretti. Fermiamoci per un po’, poi si
vedrà. Senza nostalgie e senza rivendicazioni. Venite a trovarci, vi
accoglieremo con la gentilezza che ha sempre connotato la nostra presenza,
minoritaria e marginale quanto si vuole ma ineludibile.” P.L.T.

“When i first started i was a deejay. I had no idea i would make music. I used to be with Juan, Jaun Atkins, we were kids man, but i’ve learned more of the things fundamentals that stayed with me all my life. When i watched him i was able to understand how to “feel” the air, how not just to breathe the air, but “feel” the air. I learned the philosophy of how to make records speak to each other, how to make records sing to each other, how to make records talk to each other, how to make music out of music. And that philosophy of making music with music, with records, was something i’ve carried over into my idea of making music as well.”

Black Sabbath

What is this that stands before me?
Figure in black which points at me
Turn around quick, and start to run
Find out I’m the chosen one
Oh nooo!

Big black shape with eyes of fire
Telling people their desire
Satan’s sitting there, he’s smiling
Watches those flames get higher and higher
Oh no, no, please God help me!

Is it the end, my friend?
Satan’s coming ’round the bend
People running ’cause they’re scared
The people better go and beware!
No, no, please, no!
