The Village Voice is hip to NYC’s boss of drum’n'noise. The feature includes some insight into what the hell Speak Onion is on about, a review of Trigger Pusher, and some background on I.B.N. They said, among other glowing praise:
“Only the Floor Is Rotten” may teem with enough nasty, pixilated bass synthesizers and stuttered tripwire breakbeats to satiate a dozen warehouses packed full of revelers, but the relentless waves of twinkling keyboard figures underneath all that havoc come bearing cosmic melodic gifts. “The Last Thing You Remember,” meanwhile, pushes the noise-as-bracing-assault envelope with a fuck-you intensity, mashing reams of hyperventilating wavelength chirp together with evil-algorithm, bit-crush malevolence.”
Yeah, that’s about right.
So grab the Village Voice this week to get a piece of Immigrant Breast Nest history! And stay tuned for future Speak Onion news, including the upcoming show on 3/14 at The Charleston in Williamsburg and the upcoming split release with Xrin Arms!

Regen magazine recently posted a review of Speak Onion’s Metabolor (IBN002). Check out the review here. Regen says of Metabolor,
“For these brave few that seek out breakcore for their listening enjoyment, Speak Onion is the man for the job. Blending the intricacies of breakcore with the sheer power of noise, Metabolor is perfect for the breakcore fanatic,”
and
“Speak Onion brings forth gunfire drums and imminent doom with his music,”
and
“…but those well-versed in the genre [breakcore] will find Speak Onion a strong player in the field.”
among other fantastically positive things. We are not surprised. Speak Onion is the boss of NYC drum’n'noise and he doesn’t stop at Metabolor, recently having dropped Trigger Pusher on us, and with Snow Braid– a split with Xrin Arms– about to drop, the madness continues.
So grab Metabolor and Trigger Pusher and catch Speak Onion playing for free at Coco66 next month to see what this is all about.

First off, we have new releases from Speak Onion and David B Applegate coming this month! Just getting the mastering done. Speak Onion’s “Trigger Pusher” is an EP of 2 looooong tracks capturing the bonkers live energy he’s been bringing to the stage of late, and David B. Applegate’s “King Of The Campus” is a full length bursting with sklatter, BOOM, and blOOr for days. Get excited. Any minute now. Check out the artwork.


Also, check out Speak Onion’s new website design, and find him on Twitter. You can expect him to be hollering about breakbeats, fish, beards, eating, and maybe Nord synthesizers or whatever the fuck that dude is ever talking about.
Also, did you find me on facebook yet? I didn’t!

I don’t really get it yet. I’m used to walking around getting money and fucking bitches and bringing blown out sounds to the people of earth, so this chit-chat and blah blah blah is not really my speed, but I’m sure I’ll have this shit working for me any minute. I bet that mark-ass trick, Don Drope knows how to use Facebook right.
Anyway, search for and add “Derek Tibs” on facebook for one more way to keep up with I.B.N. happenings. You can also find your man, Speak Onion, on there, and become a fan. Do it. Other Immigrant Breast Nest artists to follow!

Connexion Bizarre, one of the finest out-there electronic music hubs on the internet, has reviewed Thermometerometer’s debut record, Who measure’s the measurers?.
Click here for the review.

About Who measure’s the measurers? CB says, “Flips, clicks, drones, buzzes, pops and even glitches are thrown together and have things done to them that they could never have imagined in their wildest nightmares…” and “‘Who measures the measurers?’ retains far more accessibility to a general audience than most projects this avant-garde would manage to…”
Accessibility? Ok, if you say so!
This comes just in time to get the people ready for the latest and greatest T-MOM offering, to be released this month, Overcoming Adversity City. It will dagger your ears.

The Free Albums Galore blog, which highlights only the finest free music from all over the internet, has featured IBN’s David B. Applegate project Blind Moany Wat in its electronica section. Earning a favorable comparison to experimental music luminary DJ Spooky, the Free Albums Galore folks extol: “those who like their electronic music scratching the boundaries will find this interesting.” Interesting like a porch weevil beating a wrecked tattoo on your eardrum with six legs & its head, ya heard? Get the record directly from IBN here and check out the Free Albums Galore blog review here.

Watch this space! A new Thermometerometer joint, “Overcoming adversity city,” will be dropping from the back real soon. Delayed because Dan broke his foot in a pot-hole and needed to focus on trip-hop for a while, Thermometerometer is now in the final stages of the process which results in your having brand new electro-spew to cram in your ear-holes. “Overcoming adversity city” has the hot tracks! It has the hot beats & wrecked bass noise! It is swaggering! Famous people who have heard it already say it could very well be the newest Thermometerometer record ever! GET READY.

Lots of new Immigrant Breast Nest styles coming soon. Don’t trip. I got a phone call from Derek Tibs 2 hours ago. He promised mad styles or he’d give me twenty dollars. Derek Tibs never gives anyone twenty dollars, everyone gives HIM twenty dollars so you know he’s serious. Stay tuned.
