Cheers very much. Be seeing youse.....

So the final curtain has been and gone... Thanks to Summerhall for hosting Usurper's retirement party, to Tindegger, Joyce Whitchurch & the Chocolate Monk DJs for serenading our lugholes, and to our family & friends fae all over the dis-UK, Europe & further afield who made it along on Saturday. Our hearts melted, along with the rest of our bodies, in that sweaty sold out venue knowing that youse were there with us. Thanks also to our extended family of international weirdos across the globe who sent well wishes and who kept us keen to traverse the landscape of largely unpopular music for one day shy of two decades. We love youse, fellow choobs. You can continue to follow Ali Robertson's exploits...

Stripburger #80 aka kuš!burger is coming out very soon!

Kuš! is the proud guest editor of this issue. Celebrating our 15th and Stripburger's 30th birthday we exchanged editors and hopefully you'll enjoy the result as much as we enjoyed the process! Well, at least DJ Cat Gosshie now finally got to visit beautiful Slovenia, as you see on the cover by Harukichi - that alone certainly was worth it! There are also interviews with our friends from Kuti Kuti and Malcy Duff and comics by artists from the Balkans to the Baltics and beyond!

Coming soon, organised by Contemporary Secretary:

WHY DO ALL YOUR MANTRAS START WITH AN "I" & Other Drawings 16 Nicholson St. Glasgow Friday 14th July to Sunday 23rd July 2017

An exhibition of works by David Roeder accompanied by a collection of found ephemera pertaining to some notion of drawing organised by Contemporary Secretary.

Read on…

For WHY DO ALL YOUR MANTRAS START WITH AN "I" consider the following

Firstly: painted furniture, to avoid questions of composition & to enter (the) space, to leave stuff on.

Secondly: Starscapes, planets unfolding (like sheets) -"Inner Worlds Outside; shriveled". "Even the juiciest grape will one day turn into a wrinkly raisin" (Inge) - that is, if you put it into the sun, otherwise it might just dissolve in any other way. The issues with attaining the right point of view, always zooming in, zooming out: Microcosm vs. macrocosm, cosmic feel, astral joy, universal nothingness.

Thridly: Cityscapes, a classic genre!

Also, conversations with two almost-mother figures: Mamma & Lee. Smoking with one, complaining with the other. Aiming to grow, but when, and why?

Continue to read…

For & Other Drawings, consider further a return to the collection of found ephemera pertaining to some notion of drawing.

By drawing, we refer here to the practice or act of drawing, and so a literal object that was made with pencil/pen on paper - or as something that, in an expanded sense, is used or has been made to represent some ‘thing’, to speak a language, to trace, to outline, to make connections, to plan, to designate, to explain, to deface or to furnish.

This is a group side-note with contributions from Joshua Abelow, Dan Arps, Flo Brooks, Kirstin Carlin, Milano Chow, Joanne Dawson, Malcy Duff, Lotte Gertz, Laetitia Glenton, Jude Hagan, Charlie Hammond, Alex Heilbron, Jessica Higgins, Christopher LG Hill, Johanna Jackson, Adam Lewis-Jacob, Chris Johanson, Faye Coral Johnson, Lucy Jones, James Langdon, Camille Le Houezec, Alex Leach, Nick Lynch, Ewan McCaffrey, France-Lise McGurn, Peter Nencini, Hardeep Pandhal, RL Perry, Mick Peter, Owen Piper, Mike Redmond, Leon Sadler, Dave Sherry, Zin Taylor, Hayley Tompkins, Joey Villemont, Matthew Walkerdine, Fritz Welch, Gregor Wright, Honza Zamojski and Others.

Braw Gigs Xmas Bash @ Henry's Cellar Bar, 15th December!

In keeping with tradition, I'm pleased to announce our end of year Braw Gigs bash back in the hidden crevice that is Henry’s Cellar Bar - with an awesome line-up of old and new pals alike. So sack off the office party and come on down and get egg nogged AF at this yuletide event of the season. With very special performances from: Guttersnipe Blitzkrieg noise rock and electronics from West Yorkshire with some incredibly trebly guitar squeal blended in with grinding mini-drum chaos - set to self-destruct mode. Armed with one very plugged and coveted Demo EP – they’ve been devastating eardrums down south and across Europe this past year and sit nicely alongside the likes of prime Lightning Bolt and vintage Harry Pussy with a bit of grindcore and death metal thrown in. Easily my favourite live act in the country right now, an absolute must see. Joanne Robertson Glasgow based artist, poet and musician; Joanne’s recent music releases include ‘Black Moon Days’ Feeding Tube, ‘Wildflower’ Escho. Joanne has collaborated, recorded and toured with Dean Blunt, albums include ‘The Redeemer’, ‘Black Metal’, ‘Stone Island’, ‘Skin Fade’ and ‘Wahalla’ ‘Her poetry, painting and music all have the same binary quality — they pour sugar directly onto raw wounds in a way that is healing and transformative. Alchemical, I guess.’ - Byron Coley City Vegetables The red and blue boxes are singing in the street outside of your house. Sweeping concrete dust, skateboarding woods, a rake through the soil of plastic flowers. Some of the above, seagulls always above…talking about the weather on their mobile phones. A solo project by cartoonist Malcy Duff. Using unrecyclable packaging, recordings and voice, sounds are created from reading drawn scores. Fordell Research Unit Fordell Research Unit (aka. Fraser Burnett) will be invoking the spirit of Phillip K. Dick and the Theatre of Eternal Music via beer soaked equipment and blood shot vision. Heavy static and spiritual drone by way of Oxgangs – swamping and all encompassing. Blanck Mass (DJ set) Electronic artist from the UK and one-half of F*ck Buttons. Known globally for his sweeping dronescapes and his sweeping hair – Ben Powers will be on the 1s and 2’s after the live music finishes, till close. £7 on the door. 9pm till 3am, 15th December. Henry’s Cellar Bar, Morrison’s Street, Edinburgh

A new (and final) Usurper album on Krim Kram.

Krim Kram's Dave Murphy will be hand delivering copies of the new Usurper album, 'The Big Two', at our Summerhall retirement party tomorrow and you will be able to scoop it up in exchange for ten pounds sterling. It's an honest-to-gonk cd, as opposed to a cd-r. Bet ye never thought ye'd see Usurper housed in a digipak! We will also have a t-shirt available which will cost fifteen quid and is a limited edition of just twenty-five. Roll up, roll up.....

IT'S "GOODBYE" FAE HIM... www.duffandrobertson.tumblr will shortly be reborn as www.gianttank.tumblr.com .

Those who know Malcy Duff will know that he squirms whenever social media is mentioned. So, with Usurper's farewell party happening this weekend, as of next week he will be retiring fae Tumblr permanently. Those who want to stay in touch probably already ken his phone number and anyone else should invest in a carrier pigeon.

Meanwhile, Ali Robertson will still be here and this Tumblr page will receive a new name so that you can continue to make this yr one-stop shop for all info regarding his creative endeavours, releases on the Giant Tank label and forthcoming TfEh events. Just note the new URL.

(I cannae guarantee that all the content previously available will still be present as I remain technologically inept, but I guess we'll find out next week when I hit the detonate button, eh?!?!)

The adventure continues...
