House Arrest

These two tracks from early 1999 represent a more house influenced take on music, but still quite dark and industrial I suppose. The incarceration theme was by chance, but looking back at my mood, and life situation, when I made them I see a certain truth to it.

Again I must point out that these tracks are made with inferior equipment, and not mastered.

Kultur Terror, Live in Studio December 1998

In december 1998 Vidkun Qristus and Gird_09 spent about a week in the same house we had recorded Støy Helvete E.P. earlier the same year. (More on the Støy Helvete E.P. will come at a later date.) By this time we had slightly upgraded our equipment, utilizing a Roland MC-303, Zoom effect box and Behringer eight track mixer. We were very inspired by artists such as Deutsh Amerikanische Freundschaft, Laibach, Cassandra Complex and Suicide and recorded a highly minimalist demo.

Five tracks resulted from the sessions (a sixth was written, but never recorded), two of these (93 and Discotime) ended up on the 93-demo, while the rest were heard by very very few.

Live in Studio December 1998, by Kultur Terror (F!01)
1 - 93
2 - Discotime (short and lethal)
3 - Jesus from Nazireth
4 - Bambi
5 - the United Nation

Logo by Vidkun Qristus.

93 was mainly inspired by Aleister Crowley and the Book of the Law, and was intended to be the opening number in a planned concert. It was a reworking of a track from Støy Helvete, along with the original 17 second version of Discotime.
Jesus From Nazireth was our most political number, attacking christianity and nazism at the same time.
Bambi was the most Suicide inspired song, and also inspired by a track Gird_09 had made along with Salvador of Darkside of the Force-fame, back in 1994.
Finally the United Nation was the Laibach inspired song, and also very inspired by Operation Desert Fox, which was ongoing at the time. The original version contained a number of samples related to this, but technical limitations meant we had to leave them out of this version. (Incidentally I have no idea what the lyrics are, even though it is me blurting them out at 240bpms there...)

Unfortunately these are the final tracks from KuTe to date...

Remember that these tracks were recorded live on inferior equipment, by inexperienced individuals. Everything is in mono and no noise reduction has been applied.

Thanks are due to: Ørjan Ommundsen (Achtung!), Jon Lassen, Salvador Sanchez, Vegard "li'l wolf" Dyvik and Tor Egil Halvorsen, as well as Gird's grandparents for lending us a house for our "studio" and romping ground.

93

Free Records, Poser! is 10 years old this summer, and it's time we put some of the old recordings out there on the internet to comemorate 10 years of unproductive pipe dreams.

Granted, the ten years have not been entirely eventless. Back in 1999, when me (gird_09) and Vidkun Qristus founded FrP it was meant as a faux lable to put out our Kultur Terror (KuTe) records. At the time our ambitions ran high, and FrP was to be a part of KULTUR. KULTUR in turn was our version of NSK, sort of. We tried recruiting other members, and at some point there were six of us, involved in different projects, musical and otherwise. FrP however never took off.

There was the original KuTe-demo, my various projects (Z-19, Japanese Whore and Jenna Flechette, now collectively known as Gird_09) and a strange remix project by T.Kulberg of Atropine/Epilektrician fame. All this was "published" via FrP! at some time or a another using different media.

Free Records, Poser! was also very much a part of our anarchic anti-establishment ideology. We had a basic thought that we would adopt the different symbologies of authoritarian movements that we opposed, mix them together and somehow display them for what they was. FrP is also short for Fremskrittspartiet - a right wing/racist/objectivist/islamophobe political party in Norway.
The FrP! logo is itself a recolored version of their logo, with a big bite added to it. (The color however is a stab at some other entity, who also used a green apple to put out music...)

Anway, it's been ten years. It's time to let the music do the talking.
Enjoy!
