WHAT THEY SAID...

" I've been listening to her CDs and liking 'em a lot. They give me those half awake nightmares.This is really good stuff! Damnation."
LONESOME WYATT,THOSE POOR BASTARDS -

- " I really love her music. It's great, musically and vocally.A bit of Joy Division smashed into Lydia Lunch, but it isn't a rip-off of either. Nice videos, too. It's all great, but " Noisi(h)er Silence" is honestly phenomenal. I'm impressed and even more honored by the fact that she likes my music. "
ZEBULON,SONS OF PERDITION -

- " The instrumental tracks and her voice are unusual and special.If she used a real drummer everything would be perfect."
RHYS CHATHAM -

- " Madame B composes pieces which are so flavourful as the original New York No Wave's productions.If the good fairy bend little over the cradle, she has everything to become the French Lydia Lunch"
YG,EX DADA'S NOISE -

- " Her stuff is crazyyyy! "
OTTO VON SCHIRACK -

- " Twisted thoughts and angry incantations over wonderful mechanical clattering and surreal washes of sonic gloom. Moody introspection and brooding sensuality. Deeply personal music from a true artist."
GUILTY STRANGERS -

- " On a minimalist music, Madame B proclaims her cries of pain or hope to create an obsessing haunting atmosphere, which takes us far, in a dark and melancholic world. A different sound which is worth it. "
COLD WAVE YEARS -

MUSIC'S BOOKS



New York Noise: Art and Music from the New York Underground 1978-88
Belle plongée dans l'underground des années 80 à New-York, des artistes qui sont devenus des personnalités indispensables de la culture d'aujourd'hui. Cet album de photographies propose des portraits qui sont de magnifiques documents, de stars comme Warhol, Basquiat ou David Byrne jusqu'aux inconnus. Des photos de lofts, de concerts, de vernissages d'expositions... L'exhaustivité paraît presque totale: des musiciens jazz (John Zorn), rap (les Run DMC), musique moderne (Phil Glass), rock (Alan Vega), des peintres (Basquiat, Haring...), des acteurs...bref un joyeux mélange qui montre bien à quel point les frontières entre les arts ont été secouées ces quelques années-là. De ci-delà des commentaires sous la forme de courts textes (en anglais) d'un peu tout le monde! Et le point de vue n'est pas seulement nostalgique, car la plupart de ces artistes sont encore actifs aujourd'hui, et toujours créatifs.


This book traces the history of this influential genre from its most famous names down to its many offshoots and sidetracks. From early pioneers like Suicide and Glenn Branca, to forgotten treasures like Red Transistor and Bush Tetras, No Wave charts all the cracks and crevices of a surprisingly diverse movement. Flashing through the New York underground in the late 1970s, No Wave was the ultimate anti-movement. Its bands consisted of artists and poets untrained in music, looking to explode rock and disappear before the smoke cleared. The primary perpetrators - Lydia Lunch's howling Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, James Chance's skeletal Contortions, the dark-noise groups Mars and DNA - all drew on primitivism, performance art, and the avant-garde. They were best known for short songs and even shorter life-spans. The book also delves into No Wave cinema, a vibrant underground scene where figures like Jim Jarmusch, Nick Zedd, and Steve Buscemi first cut their teeth. Illustrated with concert photos, record covers, and other ephemera of the times, and filled with quotes from those who were there, No Wave is the definitive guide to a genre whose sounds and ideas still vibrate through alternative culture today..




No Wave: Post-punk. Underground. New York. 1976-1980 (Relié)
Un livre qui retrace l'historique précis et documenté de ces folles années 70 et 80 à New-York, quand la créativité aussi bien musicale que cinématographique était à son maximum. La NO WAVE est née de la rencontre du punk et du monde de l'art contemporain. Sont bien connus James Chance ou Lydia Lunch, mais ici vous découvrirez comment tous ces groupes sont nés, se sont rencontrés... et tous ceux qui gravitaient autour, aussi bien des cinéastes que des peintres.
