1 PLACARD 2004
CEE Recordings, Coombe Records and midRange are co-promoters in conjunction with many other London based promoters, labels and artists of the annual Placard festival and have invited Dual to perform a short set. Dual will perform a collaborative set with US born phonographer and sound artist .murmer. They will perform a site specific sound piece using the room ambience and acoustics of the State51 factory space.
LONDON HEADPHONES FESTIVAL 2004
placard: headphone concerts for headphone people
state51 extension #3
14 hours, 39 acts.
listen. don’t listen.
17 July, state51 factory, 12pm-2am
The London Headphones Festival returns… 14 hours of headphones-only performances from the cream of UK underground electronica and beyond.
Last year over 500 people packed into the state51 factory space to experience a day of headphonics. Think of a festival in reverse. Forget about background chatter: for once, it’s a chance for some focused listening. All performances are heard only through headphones, artists play 20 minute sets and the whole
thing is streamed to listening rooms around the world. To ‘open a placard’ – invite people to gather and listen to the event, it is not available as any radio stream. You are encouraged if outside London (and beyond) to create your own Placard and connect to the Global Placard. For any information on how to set-up a ‘listening placard’, contact PLACARD HQ at placard@slab.org
Lining up in the state51 warheouse space are 2004 Ars Electronica-winners Janek Schaefer and Leafcutter John, alongside Main, David Toop & Max
Eastley, dDamage, Hot Chip, Holkham, Antenna Farm, Noun, John Chantler, Adem Ilhan/8 Hours, Paul Hood, Cylens, Discom, The Sound Of Squaljax &
Farbulous, Jonathan Coleclough, sAnso-xtro, eg0 + e/n, Heller, Dallas Simpson vs Viv Corringham, Michael Rodgers vs Romuald Wadych, Nada, Nebogeo, Table, Claire Hope, 87 Central, CK Dexter Haven, Fisk Industries, Dual vs Murmer, A.M.P. Studio, Duncan Whitley, Smack Miranda, Karina ESP, Ed Bennett vs Cormac Heron, Yellow6, Rashamon, Same Actor, Pez Orchestra, Recon vs Thorsten Sideb0ard, Emanuela De Angelis, Cedric Pin.
Also on display will be video, photography and installation work by Steinbrüchel/Brusca, Semiconductor Films, Dual, Jayrope, Gr., iMax and others tbc.
The Festival is organised by a network of London-based promoters, labels and artists: highpoint lowlife records, coombe records, idoia, murmer, [no.signal], slub, midRange, state51 and the slow sound system.

2. Dual – Fall on CEE recordings [CEE003] The current Dual CD release Fall is now the fastest selling Dual release so far and its quite possible this CD will be sold out of its limited pressing of 100 copies very soon. The cd only release is a live recording of a performance by Dual at the Drone Records festival held in Berlin, Germany in May 2000. The release is presented on double 3″ CDr in a stunning long format case with hand made packaging sourced in Japan with artwork stills taken from the film Links by regular Dual collaborator GR. that was projected as a backdrop at the show. This release is strictly ltd to 100 copies and there are only a few copies left, we suggest immediate order to guarantee a copy. Order details are included further down this email.

praise for Recon:
“glimpses into infinite rhythms that will go on reverberating long after we’re redirected our ears.” Philip Sherburne, The Wire, June 2004
