ECTENTS: 034 CD

Listen

Stereo CD and 5.1 DVD

Dinoflagellate Blooms features eleven compositions composed, produced and performed by JG Thirlwell. The package includes a CD of the album in stereo, and a DVD with the album in glorious, immersive 5.1 surround sound.

The album careens between soft plucked interludes to full blown symphonic frenzy, from musiq concrete nightmares to cinematic mindfields, with a meticulous marriage of samples and live instruments, distressed sounds and mysterious unknown quantities.

Initial quantities come with a free 4x5 Manorexia by JG Thirlwell.

Foetus: Hide

ECTENTS: 033 CD

Listen

HIDE features ten new compositions by JG Thirlwell, who describes it as a
"neo-symphonic avant-psychedelic concept album informed by the culture of fear". Kicking off with a nine minute operatic opus featuring the guest vocal talents of opera singer Abby Fischer, HIDE is an immersive album infused with strands of progressive and contemporary classical, as well as Thirlwell's twisting cinematic journeys, bombast and sombre interludes.

Thirlwell produced the album and performs most of the music. Also guesting on the album are long time collaborator Steven Bernstein on trumpet and Leyna Marika Papach from Thirlwell's Manorexia ensemble on violin. In addition
Elliot Hoffman of Carbomb plays drums on a track, and there are appearances from Ed Pastorini, Jeff Davidson and Christian Gibbs (Lucinda Blackbear).

Initial quantities of HIDE will come with a free 5" x 5" sticker of the front cover signed by JG Thirlwell .

'Hide' unquestionably marks yet another fantastic addition to the already astounding Foetus catalogue, and is one of those albums that demands repeat listening, and lots of it

Ambitious, overwhelming, rough, rugged.... saddle up for a blaze into a flawed but ambitious psychedelic opera.

-sputnikmusic.com

Over the course of his career, Jim Thirlwell has hugely expanded his repertoire with his Manorexia and Steroid Maximus projects as well as soundtrack work......

...However, no matter what sideline work he does, when he comes back to Foetus it is a guarantee that the music will be brilliant. His role as a composer has fed progressively more into Foetus (fitting considering the seeds of Manorexia were sown and germinated in earlier Foetus albums) and Hide has a much wider scope than previously encountered.

Manorexia: The Mesopelagic Waters

ECTENTS: 032 CD

Listen

The new album from Manorexia. The album is 50 minutes long and contains eight tracks, radically rearranged from the first two Manorexia albums and performed by the chamber ensemble version of Manorexia in the arrangements that JG has been performing and perfecting over the last couple of years. From the sleevenotes:

"Manorexia was conceived in the year 2000. I began working on the first album on Thanksgiving morning and released it in 2001. It was started as an electronic and sample based project where I wanted to explore a spatial quality not existent in my other work. I released two albums as Manorexia, "Volvox Turbo" and "The Radiolarian Ooze", both on my label Ectopic Ents and exclusively thru my website foetus.org.

I had wanted to rearrange some Manorexia compositions for string quartet with percussion for some time, and proposed this to David Sefton at UCLA back in 2002, but in course of those discussions we switched to my Steroid Maximus big band.

Eventually I made the first live performance as Manorexia in Russia in 2006. Kenny Savelson at Bang On A Can proposed my going there for a performance at the same time as the Real Quiet trio of David Cossin, Felix Fan and Andy Russo. Real Quiet agreed to be the core of Manorexia for the Russian dates and we augmented the lineup with two violinists and a violist in Moscow. I rearranged some of the Manorexia material to be played by string quartet, piano, percussion and laptop with Ted Hearne.

I have since formed separate Manorexia ensembles in NYC and London. Manorexia has played at All Tomorrow's Parties, The Whitney Museum, Bang On A Can marathon, Brainwaves Festival and several times at The Stone NYC. This album is the product of the first wave of chamber arrangements of Manorexia material."

Time Out NY 5/6/09

JG Thirlwell presented an evening of two sold-out sets of music from his current project, Manorexia, an ensemble consisting of string quartet, piano, percussion, and himself on laptop. If you are familiar with Thirlwell's solo project Foetus or his fast paced big band project Steroid Maximus, this current ensemble may come as a surprise to you, as it is primarily quiet, sensitive, and dreamy. However there are hints of Thirlwell's other personalities hidden in the music: as haunting melodies drift over other-worldly harmonies, the potential of violence looms, with occasional bursts of industrial percussion and raw, repeated string figures that cut into the otherwise serene sound. Manorexia's music always seems to be on the verge of some magical discovery -there is a sense of wonder and amazement as the cinematic landscapes unfold. The most exhilarating and emotionally moving piece, "Chloe Don't Know I'm Alive" (from Manorexia's second album, The Radiolarian Ooze), began with a string unison while the pianist bowed a low piano string, emitting a glacial texture. Tom-tom tremolos swelled in and out of the sound as the string tunings shifted ever so slightly, creating immense emotional impact in an already apocalyptic atmosphere. In all this darkness, somehow the narrative of the piece ended up in light, as the harmonies brightened, and bells were ringing.
Sergei Tcherepnin -Brooklyn Rail

The performance lasted an hour and change, but flew by in the blink of an eye. Thirlwell and co. performed several pieces from the project's two records, exploring a vast array of styles even under its more focused approach. There were elements of avant classical, minimalistic ambient, cinematic soundscape, and even a touch of rhythmic industrial throughout the evening's performance, all with a hint of that no wave edge Thirlwell cultivated in the 1980s. Some pieces were a mere two minutes in length, while others stretched over the course of ten minutes, changing gears several times over. Xylophones were bowed, violas were plucked, piano strings were strummed, and Thirlwell sat behind his desk, triggering a serious of electronics, looming over like a demented hybrid of a conductor and a manipulator. The songs themselves were cathartic. Some were hauntingly beautiful, while others invoked a catastrophic sense of dread that found every nerve underneath the skin. The audience watched everything unfold with an eerie silence, only chirping to burst into unanimous applause as each piece came to an organic conclusion, most often with a series of frantic and muted violin notes. Otherwise, you could hear a pin drop between the layers of sound from time to time, but rest assured, Thirlwell and co. were in complete control of their sonic territory, and wielded their instruments with precision and intent. Manorexia are rumored to have a third album due very soon, so I pray last night's show was a sign of more performances to come. We'll keep you posted...
Frank Deserto -Limewire Music Blog

So it's a performance of fairly creepy, subtly exciting and wonderfully rendered pieces, featuring three lovely ladies on violins, one equally lovely lady on cello, one super chap on percussion and xylophones and whatnot and the foetus JG Thirlwell himself on laptop.

The least noticable part is played by Jim and frankly I have trouble figuring out exactly what is coming from his laptop, but it's unimportant. The whole thing is easily enthralling enough to pop me out of my Brooklyn Beer induced premature semi-slumber and raise the hairs on my neck. It's not horror music, but it is subcutaneous and it is impressive in its execution to the level that makes you sick and delirious with awe. It rolls and changes and surprises you. It is a show that finishes with you immediately walking up to buy a CD despite knowing that there is no way it can recreate what you just witnessed. It is one of those rare shows that makes you feel exceptionally lucky to be in a certain place at a certain time.
It is what it is all about. It is why I go out.

Foetus: LIMB CD + DVD + 48-page Book

ECTENTS: 030 CD

Listen

Exclusive website-only limited release. Unavailable elsewhere!

LIMB is an archival release of experimental and minimalist compositions recorded from 1980-1983, from the early days of Foetus and pre-Foetus. Though the material is largely unreleased, some of the pieces have been previously released on the compilation albums by Coil and United Dairies. Some were excavated and some of it was reconstructed or re-edited from compositions on cassette. One piece is constructed from an organ part written in 1982, which JG took the liberty of finishing in 2008. These pieces were made before the introduction of MIDI and sampling technology. It shows the lineage and genesis of some of the methods that JG is working in today.

The Venture Bros. : The Music of J.G. Thirlwell

Available on vinyl here

The long-awaited score from the hit Adult Swim cartoon The Venture Bros, composed and performed by JG Thirlwell.

"JG Thirlwell's brilliant music for The Venture Brothers injects new energy to the world of cartoon soundtracks. An extension of his work with Steroid Maximus, the music is filled with honesty, imagination and excitement. Like all great soundtrack composers, JGT is a compendium of music history and he jumps easily from one genre to another with flamboyant style - mambo, drum 'n' bass, electronica, 20th century classical, lounge, calliope carousel, big band jazz - nothing seems to escape his unerring ear, but no matter where he goes, he always remains uniquely himself. ...This is great music." John Zorn, NYC 2008 (from the sleeve notes)

Includes contributions by Fennesz, Mike Patton, Jay Wasco, TujikoNuriko, Jason Forrest, TRZTN (of Services), Tweaker, Matmos, TomRecchion and J.G. Thirlwell.

Manorexia: The Radiolarian Ooze

ECTENTS: 024 CD

Listen

Exclusive website-only limited release. Unavailable elsewhere!

Sometimes darkly disorienting, sometimes rhythmic and occasionally almost treading on Steroid Maximus territory, the first thirty-five minutes (eight pieces), gradually build to a frenzy, through soundscapes, alien ethnicities, passing the eavesdropped sounds of sinister goings-on, on into haunting lullabies culminating in a epic eleven-minute-plus chase-opera...

The second part of the album, the final four pieces, are beautiful and twisted and enveloping, sometimes best listened to in a semi-somnambulistic state; by the end, the listener may find themselves in paroxysms of ecstasy at the beauty and sadness and strangeness and other-wordly quality of this cycle.

Manorexia: Volvox Turbo

Listen

Exclusive website-only limited release. Unavailable elsewhere!

Tapping into his instincts, Thirlwell completed the instrumental Volvox Turbo, album within six weeks (a record time for him) and released this exclusively through the online shop. An intensely psychological symphony, the album orbits several multiethnic soundscapes - from Moroccan to Martian - and manipulates those studio mistakes others try to avoid into 14 strangely compelling merging movements. It's been called "a noir narrative filled with anticipation, foreboding and icy climaxes." It resonates more with deep listening. It's a killer acid trip without the LSD.

Presumably working with the first big studio budget of his career, Foetus gets it all in the grooves, lashing together an eclectic collection as advanced and ambitious as anything he's done." -Trouser Press
