From New Records
KK Null (Kazuyuki Kishino) is one of the most important persons of Japanese experimental scene. He is composer, guitarist, singer and mastermind of progressive hardcore band, Zeni Geva. He started his career as a studied Butoh dancer (by Tanaka Min), and performed guitar improvisations in clubs of Tokyo, then played with Merzbow for two years, and was in various groups together with Yamatsuka Eye (aka Yamantaka Eye, Boredoms) and Tatsuya Yoshida (drums, Ruins). His label released the first Melt-Banana album. As solo artist he is „creating intense clashing wave of noise, structured electro-acoustic ambience, broken down rhythmics, scattered pitch sculptures, droning isolationist material which could be described “cosmic noise maximal/minimalism”. He made two tracks with a Birmingham-based tuba doom duo, Ore. It’s released on limited edition 7″ and digitally on 18th November by Endtyme Records. Samples taken from the double A side 7″
An interesting Ore track: In Hungary They Used To Burn Bagpipers

3 IN 1
a really great 60s style psychedelic rock band
Mr. Elevator & The Brain Hotel
– What was the first own record in your life?
WB: I remember this like it was yesterday… I heard this band in the 90’s when I was about maybe eight or nine years old called Goldfinger, and they had this record called “Hang-Ups” and I bugged the shit out of my dad to take me to Warehouse Records to buy the CD. So I FINALLY saved up the money to buy it, and my dad took me and I bought it! It was the greatest feeling ever and was the first record I ever bought with my own money. I still have the original copy and listen to it in my car!
– What record made the biggest influence on you?
Ignacio: Yellow Submarine. The song „Hey Bulldog„, definitely a game changer.
– What was the last record that you heard?
Tomas: I just stumbled upon a bargain record find of this album called „Smash your head against the wall” by John Entwisle. AMAZING. It’s this early 70s heavy psych record that throughout the album slowly swindles down from its heavy beginning and eventually to the last song which cuts to a nightmarish chant of Rudolph The Rednose Reindeer. It’s righteous.
Debut LP is coming soon by Burger Records The latest 7”

LOT OF HAIR, BURRITOS, AND BAD JOKES
An interview with
Mr. Elevator & The Brain Hotel
a really great 60s style psychedelic rock band from California
Hey guys! You’re Mr. Elevator and The Brain Hotel! You’re doin’ fuckin’ good things! What’s the style?
Hey, thanks man! The style? I guess if you combined a lot of hair, burritos, and bad jokes all at once in a weird magical spell it’d come out being somewhat of something like us….
You make many kinds of music like garage-psych-glam-pop-punk-rock in other bands as Feeding People, Cosmonauts*, Peach Kelli Pop, etc. How came the idea of the new style and band?
Mr. Elevator, like Moses, was a calling to us from a burning bush. A female’s burning bush.
Your music reminds me of The Doors and the Silver Apples (are an American pioneer psychedelic synth-drums duo. The group was active between 1967 and 1969. Reformed in 1996. – editor’s note), but sometimes the Madness come to my mind too. What is your opinion?
All great bands man. There are very few bands that really gave light to what an organ or just piano related instruments can do and sound like. Ray did a very fine job though.. RIP (e.n: Ray Manzarek was the organ player of The Doors. He passed away on May 20.)
Your name is very strange LSD-flavored. Were there some other alternatives?
We started actually as an all water zodiac signed jam band called Tropical Fish. Played a handful of shows with that name and a very obscure set of songs hahah but the name is actually a reference to a Donovan song. The ultimate musical mystic!
Your brilliant 1st LP is coming soon or…?
Soon! We’re re-recording what we just worked on the past few months because it just didn’t come out how we envisioned it. We have so many songs and not one album yet.. so expect a little something soon
Please offer some favorite local bands!
Froth! Mystic Braves! (Formerely known as Blackfoot Braves.) Jeffertiti’s Nile! Cool Ghouls! too many man good local music everywhere these days
And now please tell me a bizarre or a funny or a weekday story that happened in your circles nowadays!
Running Lolipop Records in Echo Park, we get a lot of strange encounters with homeless/batshit crazy folks. All ranging around supreme racial pride, death threats, and lactose intolerant homeless
What is your message to the readers?
You’re right where you ought to be why can’t you ever see everything you want is right here.
