Zami - "The Etiquette of an Industrial Trauma" (ZH27 - 413) 1986




The prolific cassette sonic terrorist Minoy's collaboration with the equally prolific sonic terrorist Zan Hoffman, Minóy\Zannóy aka Zami, produced at least 50 single sided C60's like 'The Etiquette of Industrial Trauma'.The title probably being an analogy for Life, and sounds like a close miked Ice Breaker grinding its way through arctic ice; which is another analogy for life I suppose?

28 minutes of aural phlegm swirling around in a flushing toilet of sound is not usually a tasty treat for the old shell-likes.But when anchored to reality by a disjointed repetitive loop of some dying electronic calliope, it suddenly sounds like a top ten smash. The top ten of what, and in which parallel reality in this crazy ol’ multi-verse is anyones guess.There’s almost certainly a shadow universe out there,where the physics are different,George Bush was strangled at birth,and Minoy/Zannoy are number one; Stephen Hawking has said as much.So take the word of the worlds number one authority on Black Holes,and fill that black hole in your soul with some Zami.

Sure I'm not the only one finding this stuff very ... cathartic.

Don't think you're the only one Beano,everything Minoy goes fast over 100 downloads in a couple of days. But I doubt he's everyones cup of tea.
Don't reckon theres enough interest for a Minoy tribute act for example?

Haha.. or an official CD release with TV advertising and bonus tracks? Maybe a DVD, the 'making of', and some t-shirts. Maybe a Minoy trucker hat.

Actually, why not? I could make a few cheesy accesories available for a few artists on here. Like a Minoy doll with free key fob? (maybe not that)
...but limited run t-shirts, be the first in your street with a Mauthausen Orchestra t-shirt,or a set of Danny and the Dressmakers beer mats.Do you think this would bring me my dream of bankruptcy?

Just a quick note to say,the link was wrong for this and Monochrome Melodrama (i mixed them up with each other,they have been swapped)!
This has now been corrected.
I apologise perfusely!
