Janisary Music

Janisary Music is a duo of D. Methlie (ex ? Golden Calves Money Band) and Sean Maffucci (AM Radio guitarist). After the fallout of the criminally under-documented genius psyche of Golden Calves Money Band young man Methlie played around the NYC experimental scene as rats live on. Maffucci, a wandering noise rock nomad has been honing his skills of destruction w/ the NYC J. Arplane/Dead C hybrid unit AM Radio. These two gentlemen joined forces to create a score for the experimental film No Exit by Keith Ehrlich. Prior to recording they performed the music at a handful of screenings as well at at some of NYC's more outsider music venues. The sound is purely democratic; cellos mesh with found percussion, powerbook manipulations feed into four track tape-machines (only to be spliced beyond recognition), and eminating from prepared guitar are what seem to be droning violins set afloat on a sea of metal scrap. the accomplishment of these recordings extends well beyond their esoteric method of creation; while the creative process is completely abstract, the music itself exists almost as a facsimile of pop/noise. passages slowly build hooks out of sleeptime drones and then vanish -- transmoding to wholly new, yet sentient and logical, sound-ideas. The LP is a strict edition of 500.
